Hi @Anonymous,

Right now we are getting data from pubnum and pushing into Power bi rest API.

What do you mean about pubnum, is it PubNub?

 

Power BI REST APIs can be used to create and send data to push datasets and to and streaming datasets, but not for PubNub streaming dataset. So if you're getting data from PubNub, how do you push into Power BI Rest APIs?

 

In addition, if you're getting data from PubNub, you should be able to follow steps here to use real time streaming(PubNub) in Power BI (you just need to replace the Subscribe key and Channel with your own). Smiley Happy

 

Regards
