Send data from Kaa to Power BI

Hello,

 

i am trying to send data from Kaa (Open source IoT platfrom) to power bi using REST log appender (Method POST, type JSON). I have readed about authorizing, azure active directory, etc. I am little confused from this.

Do i really need to write mini application serving just authorization and every POST request from Kaa send through that ?


Have someone experience with connecting Kaa to Power BI ?

I will be very grateful for your replies.

Have a nice day ! :)

    I believe you do have to, if you don't want any extra charge.

     

    There're actually some other onelinse services(PubNub, Azure stream analytics, see this page) that can output data to Power BI automatically, however you would have to

    1. Set up the datasource for those features
    2. Pay extra money for purchasing those services

    By the way, for Power BI REST API calls, there're limitations.
