Get data using Rest API (post)

Hello

 

I have this url

https://api.statbank.dk/v1/data

 

and I want to use this request for getting data for PowerBI.

{
"table": "ls01",
"format": "CSV",
"valuePresentation": "Value",
"timeOrder": "Ascending",
"delimiter": "Semicolon",
"variables": [
{
"code": "BRANCHE",
"values": [
"*"
]
},
{
"code": "ENHED",
"values": [
"*"
]
},
{
"code": "Tid",
"values": [
"2010",
"2018"
]
}
]
}

 

I have never used API's for getting data into PowerBI, hence a step-by-step guide would be very much appreciated!

Thank you 🙂

Hi @MFester ,

 

Basically you can use Web.Contents to call the API like below

 

let
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://api.statbank.dk/v1/data"))
in
Source

 

Please refer the below link
