Creating an endpoint using REST API

Hi,

 

I'm fairly new at this at I am giving a good go at trying to wing it and make this work!

 

I want to create a real time dashboard in Power BI. the data I need is from an external ticketing company, they have given me an api I key and I have created a dashboard using this via query editor, however there is so much data and this is so slow! I would also like ticket sales in real time.

 

So I now need to create an endpoint for the ticket company to push data to. I have created a streaming dataset through power bi and defined the schema based on the company's own model. I have then created a python script to request, process and send data to the power bi data set using a http POST request. However, when i run the script I am running into the error 400 "bad request for URL" which is the power bi url which was generated from when i set up the dataset.

 

Any advice on this would be much appreciated.
