Hello,
I can't gather data from API in Power BI. Access is forbidden, seems need to get authorization key and provide it but how to implement this?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Analitika ,
According to the error message, it seems that you don't have the access to that API. You can refer the following links to make troubleshooting and find a solution.
Expression.Error: Access to the Resource is Forbidden: Fix
1. Reset the data connection to re-enter credentials
![]()
2. Select an alternative log-in option to connect to data
In addition, you can refer the blog below to retrieve the data from API.
