Hi All,
I've been given a Power BI file with an API connector that calls a JSON file. The problem is when I upload the file to Power BI Service it won't let me refresh. I get this error:
How can I update the code to make sure it refreshes on Power BI service?
Thanks in advance!
Here's the code for the data source:
And the code in a text format:
let
BaseUrl = "URL",
Token = "TOKEN",
GetJson = (Url) =>
let Options = [Headers=[ #"Authorization" = "Bearer " & Token ]],
RawData = Web.Contents(Url, Options),
Json = Json.Document(RawData)
in Json,
GetPage = (Index) =>
let Url = BaseUrl & "&page=" & Text.From(Index),
Json = GetJson(Url),
Value = Json
in Value,
PageCount = 20,
PageIndices = { 1 .. PageCount },
Pages = List.Transform(PageIndices, each GetPage(_)),
Entities = List.Union(Pages),
#"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(Entities, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
Your base URL may be too detailed. Follow this guidance to make it more generic
