Hi,
I am rather new to PBI but hope I can express my problem in a meaningful manner. I want to pull data which comes from a RESTful webservice. Subsequent you can find the details I am using in a RESTful client which returns a proper JSON:
GET / https://myjira.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/search?jql=project="XXX" Header / Authorization:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Now I have tried to implement this in PBI query as follows:
let address = "https://myjira.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/search", header = [ #"Authorization" = "xxxxxxxxxxx"], queryOptions = [#"?jql" = "project=XXX"], Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents(address , [Headers = header, Query = queryOptions])), issues = Source[issues] in issues
This returns a table but the "issues" are empty?! I do not get the 23 expected issues within the JIRA project.
Im assumption is that it has something to do with the "jqp" part and the multiple "=" symbols
Eventually the address need to be:
https://myjira.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/search?jql=project="XXX"
Do you have any idea how to fix or better troubleshoot?
BR,
Stefan
I now made some progress. I have compared the Header from the REST client to the Header in PowerBI and added the Cookie Header. Afterwards it worked fine:
let
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://myjira.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/search?jql=project='BESAD'", [Headers=[Authorization="xxx",Cookie="somecookiestring"]])),
issues = Source[issues],
issues1 = issues{0},
fields = issues1[fields]
in
fields
I have just copied the cookie information from the REST client; but what do I need to use in PowerBI as Cookie information?
BR,
Stefan
