Can Power BI use a non-OData compliant REST API?
Can Power BI use a non-OData compliant REST API as a data source or must any REST API it uses be OData compliant?

If you build a custom Data Connector, the REST endpoint can be anything that you wish.
A non-ODATA endpoint by itself (i.e. just json) doesn't descripe the data format/schema well enough so that's a task you'll be doing in your custom connector.

Sorry, I’m not sure of what Qlik supports.
