Would it be possible to use PowerBI to call an API that returns a PDF and download it? Thanks for your help!
I've seen solutions out there that use M code to call a web service like Azure Machine Learning. I've done similar stuff in R and now there is Python support as well so I would say the answer is yes.
Thanks for your quick answer. Could you please give me more details? Right now, i’m using a code that returns me the file but i’m not able to open it in pdf. It only allows me to open in xml, access, csv, json, xls but not pdf. It only shows me the size in bytes of the file but with no extension and i’m not able to save it....
