Json.Document Web.Content Swagger API

[patoduck]

Hi,

I have the following code

let
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("http://193.160.3.15:60003/api/Product?vpArticleNumbers=MYNUMBER", [Headers=[Token="MYTOKEN"]])),
Source1 = Source{0},
#"Converted to Table" = Record.ToTable(Source1),
#"Transposed Table" = Table.Transpose(#"Converted to Table"),
#"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(#"Transposed Table", [PromoteAllScalars=true])
in
#"Promoted Headers"

How do I loop MYNUMBER? I have seen many examples, but I just can make it work with my example. API doc is found here

http://193.160.3.15:60003/swagger/ui/index

@Jimmy801 any idea?

Hi @patoduck ,

"How do I loop MYNUMBER?"

I don't quite understand what you want to achieve, please describe in more detail.

Here you have the code a bit more clearer.

I need to create MYNUMBER (a product number) a loop it, there I create a function, but I don't know how to put it outside the quotes in the WEB.Contents reference.

 @v-lionel-msft  I have seen @ImkeF doing this many times, but maybe I need more coffee to make it work.

let
    Source = (vpArticleNumbers as MYNUMBER) as table => let
    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("http://193.160.3.15:60003/api/Product?vpArticleNumbers=MYNUMBER", [Headers=[Token="MYTOKEN"]])),
    Source1 = Source{0},
    #"Converted to Table" = Record.ToTable(Source1),
    #"Transposed Table" = Table.Transpose(#"Converted to Table"),
    #"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(#"Transposed Table", [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
    #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Promoted Headers",{{"AlcoholPercent", Int64.Type}, {"AreaInfo", type any}, {"ArticleName", type text}, {"ArticleNumber", Int64.Type}, {"ArticleType1", type logical}, {"ArticleType2", Int64.Type}, {"Category1", type text}, {"Category2", type text}, {"CocktailDescription", type text}, {"Country", type text}, {"Description", type text}, {"District", type text}, {"ContainerCapacity", Int64.Type}, {"EANNumber", Int64.Type}, {"EPDNumber", Int64.Type}, {"FoodDescription", type text}, {"GrapeTypes", type text}, {"HorecaPrice1", type number}, {"HorecaPrice2", type number}, {"ImageFlag", type logical}, {"ImportedNumber1", type text}, {"ImportedNumber2", type text}, {"NextDelivery", Int64.Type}, {"ProducerDescription", type any}, {"ProducerName", type text}, {"ProducerURL", type text}, {"ProductionMethod", type text}, {"SalesLastMonth", Int64.Type}, {"SalesUnit", type text}, {"ServingTemperature", type text}, {"SoilInfo", type any}, {"SubDistrict", type text}, {"VecturaImageName", type text}, {"Volume", Int64.Type}, {"VPAllergens", type any}, {"VPArticleType", type text}, {"VPArticleDescription", type text}, {"VPArticleName", type text}, {"VPArticleNumber", Int64.Type}, {"VPArticleType2", Int64.Type}, {"VPBitterness", Int64.Type}, {"VPCertifications", type any}, {"VPColor", type text}, {"VPCorkType", type text}, {"VPPackagingType", type text}, {"VPRecommendedFoodSymbol1", type text}, {"VPRecommendedFoodSymbol2", type text}, {"VPRecommendedFoodSymbol3", type text}, {"VPFreshness", Int64.Type}, {"VPFullness", Int64.Type}, {"VPImageURL", type text}, {"VPIngredients", type text}, {"VPCategory", type text}, {"VPPrice", type number}, {"VPProducerID", type any}, {"VPSmell", type text}, {"VPStorageInfo", type text}, {"VPSweetness", Int64.Type}, {"VPTannin", Int64.Type}, {"VPTaste", type text}, {"VPVintage", type text}, {"VPEcological", type logical}, {"VPBiodynamic", type logical}, {"VPFairtrade", type logical}, {"VPEnviromentalsmart", type logical}, {"VPGluten", type logical}, {"VPKosher", type logical}, {"VPSugar", Int64.Type}, {"VPAcid", Int64.Type}, {"VPImporter", type text}, {"VPShopcategory", Int64.Type}, {"VPDistributor", type text}, {"VPMainGTIN", Int64.Type}, {"VPOtherGTINs", type text}, {"StockLevel", Int64.Type}, {"SaleYTD", Int64.Type}, {"SaleMTD", Int64.Type}, {"ActiveProduct20", type logical}, {"ActiveProduct21", type logical}, {"ActiveProduct22", type logical}, {"ActiveProduct23", type logical}, {"SaleStatusText20", type text}, {"SaleStatusText21", type text}, {"SaleStatusText22", type text}, {"SaleStatusText23", type text}, {"OrderedQuantityIB", Int64.Type}, {"SAPSaleStatus20", Int64.Type}, {"SAPSaleStatus21", Int64.Type}, {"SAPSaleStatus22", Int64.Type}, {"SAPSaleStatus23", Int64.Type}, {"SaleLYTD", Int64.Type}, {"SaleLYMTD", Int64.Type}, {"VPLaunchDate", type any}}),

[patoduck]

let
    Source = (vpArticleNumbers as number) as table => let


   
    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("http://193.160.3.15:60003/api/Product?",vpArticleNumbers, [Headers=[Token="MYTOKEN"]])),
    Source1 = Source{0},
    #"Converted to Table" = Record.ToTable(Source1),

If i do this i get this error

Hi

try this:

Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("http://193.160.3.15:60003/api/Product?vpArticleNumbers=" & Text.From(vpArticleNumbers), [Headers=[Token="MYTOKEN"]])),

In the syntax higlighting you will see that the first "vpArticleNumbers" will be considered as text, while the second (without quotes) will be regarded as the parameter from your function. It has to be converted as text for the Web.Contents-function.

But please be aware that this query will not refresh in the services as it is. Therefore you have to use the relative path parameter: http://blog.datainspirations.com/2018/02/17/dynamic-web-contents-and-power-bi-refresh-errors/
