Get data using CURL and build powerbi with real time data

Hi all,

 

I need to read data from an APi and build power Bi report with real time data. For example, each time a row is added to the Api, the row should immediately be appearing the Report as well.

 

Could you please let me know the steps? Can I directly put URL in Web as a source?

 

Or Do we need to use streaming dataset in Power Bi with APi as a source?

 each time a row is added to the Api, the row should immediately be appearing the Report as well.

How will you be informed about this event (a row being added) ?  Does the API provide a webhook that you could use to write a custom Power Automate trigger?
