Hi Experts
I'm accessing the REST API URL as a direct query data source through the CData Power BI Connector for REST but the current URL has a hard coded value but how could I pass parameter dynamically in the power bi.
I have created 2 columns in the schema (JSON) which can be used as a parameter- pease see the below
<input name="effectiveDate" required="true"/>
<input name="prodId" required="true"/>
and change the URL to http://hotsname/sources/DimSales?rs:effectiveDate=[_input.effectiveDate]&rs:prodId=[_input.prodId]&r...
And also created Parameters in the Power BI with the same names (effectiveDate, ProdId) and assigned these to Query dataset in the M Query but got the below error.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Hope these documents can help you:
Parameters for JSON API data - Maintain Query daily;
Dynamic connection to Web URL.
Best Regards,
Icey
