Hello all,
I have recently published a dashboard using Surveymonkey's API as the data source. For automation its asking for an Account Key (see below)
Does anyone know where i can find this? And what privacy settings should i be using?
Thanks,
JID
Solved! Go to Solution.
You'll need to get the account key by logging in to your survey monkey account. Not sure if this helps: https://help.surveymonkey.com/articles/en_US/kb/Microsoft-Power-BI-Integration I don't use survey monkey, so can't be more specific on that one.
For privacy settings, you can choose whatever you want, but Power BI always asks this when you combine different data sources, choosing ignore is the fastest refresh, choosing organizational or private marks it as more confidential/secure: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/admin/desktop-privacy-levels
