Dynamically pass query in POST API BODY

Hello All,

 

I am trying to connect to an internal application using REST API POST method, for this i have created one Custom Connector.

When i am passing static query ( Select * from Table ) into API Body , i am able to connect to the application, i want this to happen dynamically.

I have tried using below code 

 

TEST_API = (url as text, Q as text) =>
let
body =
"{""queryConfigurationDto"": {

""configurationName"":""TEST App"",
""applicationId"":""ART_4ba6cf1d-f1ac-4efd-a58e-4c7806fe531d"",
""configAdgroups"":[""ALL_ACCESS""],
""readAdgroups"":[""ALL_ACCESS""],
""decryptionAccessAdGroups"":[],
""configurationType"":""QUERY"",
""dataSourceConfigurationId"":""ART_df2c0680-c816-435f-dscedd-e2acc74379f2""
""query"":"& Q &",#(lf)
""mandatoryParams"":[],
""encryptedParams"":[],
""paramValues"":{}},
""dataAccessRequest"":{""parameters"":{},""responseFormat"":""KOSHER""}}",

 

i want this select query to be dynamic , is it possible?

 

Thanks

Hi Dong_li,

No , it didnt work for me , i was trying to pass some of the Body parameters dynamically.

Though i achieved it using below code

 

GetTable1 = (url as text,DS_ID as text,tb_nm as text) =>

let

body =
"{""queryConfigurationDto"": {

""configurationName"":""TEST"",
""applicationId"":""ABT_4ba6bf1d-f1ac-4efd-a58e-4c79234dse"",
""configAdgroups"":[""ALL_ACCESS""],
""readAdgroups"":[""ALL_ACCESS""],
""decryptionAccessAdGroups"":[],
""configurationType"":""QUERY"",
""dataSourceConfigurationId"":"""& DS_ID &""",
""query"":""select * from "& tb_nm &" LIMIT 1000"",
""mandatoryParams"":[],
""encryptedParams"":[],
""paramValues"":{}},
""dataAccessRequest"":{""parameters"":{},""responseFormat"":"" ""}}",

 

Thanks!

Hi @Anuj6 ,

 

We can create a parameter and use it to call your customer connector, if you want to change the parameter, you can use Update Parameters In Group or Update Parameters for reports published into the Service or update the parameter in Desktop
