i need to extract data from firebase database to power bi..i would like to know the step by step process with the images ...i would highly appreciate ur help
I get exactly the same error as provided while trying to read the data from Google Firebase into Power BI. Could you give some additional information about what could be the problem?
I am not a developer, I'm more buiness analyst. I try to pull in my Firebase data into Power Bi but receive the error message below. I'm just trying to get the data into a table to review
let
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://easton-app.firebaseio.com")),
#"Converted to Table" = Record.ToTable(Source)
in
#"Converted to Table"
DataFormat.Error: We found extra characters at the end of JSON input.
Details:
Value=
Position=1
@qwaiti273,
Click “Get Data->Blank Query” to add a new blank query in Power BI Desktop, then paste the following code in Advanced Editor and expand columns in Query Editor.
let Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("url to firebase database")), #"Converted to Table" = Record.ToTable(Source) in #"Converted to Table"
There are some similar threads for your reference.
