Recommended ODBC driver to read API data

praveenk · ‎07-21-2022

Hello,

Is there any generic ODBC driver in the market that we can use to import data from API? I want to do Power BI reporting on one of our applications, the vendor of that application wants to use APIs for data import. I want to know if there are any tools in the Market which you can recommend to me.

Thanks

@praveenk you can use web. contents as the connection to get data from an API. It is a pretty common task and there are a lot of videos on how to get data in Power BI using API?
