Assistance with Post json over https

If I have a online service that allows me to export data with the following options:


Format & Transportation: JSON over HTTPS
HTTPS Method: Post

HTTPS URL:

Is there a good way to update a power bi dataset with the json data whenever it automatically sends it? (could be every 5 mins)

What kind of power bi dataset do I need to set up?

There is no URL to get the data from, just this service that sends it.

Am I correct in thinking I can use:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/service-real-time-streaming

create the data set

set historic  data analysis to on

 

"Streaming datasets created by using the Power BI service UI don't require Azure AD authentication. In such datasets, the dataset owner receives a URL with a rowkey, which authorizes the requestor to push data into the dataset without using an Azure AD OAuth bearer token. However, the Azure AD approach still works to push data into the dataset."

 

is there a reason why I can not just add the url it gives me to the url field on my original posts options?
