Odata Feed with Archer App
Hello experts,
I have a problem when I try to connect to an API that points to an Archer application.
I access the application on the web without any problem.
Is there anyone who has ever tried to connect Power BI with Archer and had the same error ?
Thanks,
Marouane

Hi Bsim89 !
I'm also using the content api to connect to a Archer Feed.
There's a few takeways and configurations that may bring different results from our application intead of yours, but the steps that worked for me were:
- Connect trough a OData Feed Connection
- Use a Basic authentication method
- In the username you should use literally "session-id", nothing else
- The password is the Session Token generated by the Archer application. Here I also suggest that you create a specific user to powerbi and configure to return a fixed Session Token, otherwise I'll have to generate another one every time.
Here are two links that may help you
Hope it helps.
