Hello,
I am trying to make a connection to api where you select columns which you want to see and it according to that creates api request and generates you a new table with your selected columns.
I am trying to do everything on TripPin NavTables example, but I don't understand how to make that so it selects columns to show on the table, and not that every selection shows you just different table
My code now is this (which I don't udenrstand why it doesn't work as I want):
section TripPin;
//
// Definition
//
// Data Source Kind description
TripPin = [
Authentication = [
Anonymous = []
],
Label = "FB Navigator"
];
// Data Source UI publishing description
TripPin.Publish = [
Beta = true,
Category = "Other",
ButtonText = {"FB Navigator", "FB Navigator"}
];
//
// Implementation
//
[DataSource.Kind = "TripPin"]
shared TripPin.Feed = Value.ReplaceType(TripPinImpl, TripPinNavType);
[DataSource.Kind = "TripPin", Publish = "TripPin.Publish"]
shared TripPin.Contents = Value.ReplaceType(TripPinNavTable, TripPinNavType);
TripPinNavType = type function (
accID as (
type text meta [
Documentation.FieldCaption = "Account ID",
Documentation.FieldDescription = "įrašykite account id kuris randamas facebook developers puslapyje",
Documentation.SampleValues = {"1234567890", "0987654321"}
]
),
API_key as (
type text meta [
Documentation.FieldCaption = "API token",
Documentation.FieldDescription = "koks yra jūsų sukurtos aplikacijos API raktas",
Documentation.SampleValues = {"HFHVJ5457JHBJH567HGH", "5637HGFHJJKJKBJ788"}
]
)
) as table meta [
Documentation.Name = "Facebook API conection",
Documentation.LongDescription = "Facebook API conection LONG"
];
TripPinImpl = (accID as text, API_key as text) =>
let
urll = "http://services.odata.org/v4/TripPinService/Airlines",
source = Web.Contents(urll), json = Json.Document(source)
in
json;
TripPinNavTable = (accID as text, API_key as text) as table =>
let
source = #table(
{"Name", "Data", "ItemKind", "ItemName", "IsLeaf"},
{
{"Airlines", GetAirlinesTable(accID, API_key), "Table", "Table", false},
{"Airports", GetAirportsTable(accID, API_key), "Table", "Table", false}
}
),
navTable = Table.ToNavigationTable(source, {"Name"}, "Name", "Data", "ItemKind", "ItemName", "IsLeaf")
in
navTable;
GetAirlinesTable = (accID as text, API_key as text) as table =>
let
source = TripPin.Feed(accID, API_key),
value = source[value],
toTable = Table.FromList(value, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
expand = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(toTable, "Column1", {"AirlineCode", "Name"}, {"AirlineCode", "Name"})
in
expand;
GetAirportsTable = (accID as text, API_key as text) as table =>
let
source = TripPin.Feed(accID, API_key),
value = source[value],
toTable = Table.FromList(value, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
expand = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(toTable, "Column1", {"AirlineCode", "Name"}, {"AirlineCode", "Name"})
in
expand;
//
// Common functions
//
Table.ToNavigationTable = (
table as table,
keyColumns as list,
nameColumn as text,
dataColumn as text,
itemKindColumn as text,
itemNameColumn as text,
isLeafColumn as text
) as table =>
let
tableType = Value.Type(table),
newTableType = Type.AddTableKey(tableType, keyColumns, true) meta [
NavigationTable.NameColumn = nameColumn,
NavigationTable.DataColumn = dataColumn,
NavigationTable.ItemKindColumn = itemKindColumn,
Preview.DelayColumn = itemNameColumn,
NavigationTable.IsLeafColumn = isLeafColumn
],
navigationTable = Value.ReplaceType(table, newTableType)
in
navigationTable;
