Formula.Firewall error; calling a web api get's error when used in a table with append other tables.
Hi,
I've got a sheet in Power BI that consists of several merged sheets.
Now, I want to run a web api( the HERE geocoder api) on the final sheet but I get the error
please rebuild this data combination
I've followed the instructions here and here.
I've also tried defining and invoking the function within the query likehere .
Could it be that I have to define the query for every 'source' sheet which is used to merge for the final sheet?
All sources have to have an Organizational privacy level, other wise stuff breaks, so turning the whole privacy level checks off is not doable.
Thanks in advance,
Bram
Hi,
I've fixed the issue by using the Relative path option.
My function now looks likes this:
= (coding as text) =>
let
Bron = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://geocoder.api.here.com/6.2?app_id=xxxxxxxxxx&app_code=xxxxxxx", [RelativePath="geocode.json", Query=[searchtext="coding"]]))
in
Bron
I hope this helps other people that run into the same problem :)

Hi Anonymous ,
I'm afraid that you'd better show the sample code which could reproduce your scenario so that we could help further on it.
In addition, ImkeF and MarcelBeug may have other ideas.

My (shortend)query looks like this:
let
geocode = (herecoding as text) =>
let
coding = herecoding,
PostContent=””,
Bron = Json.Document(Web.Contents(“https://geocoder.api.here.com/6.2/geocode.json?app_id=xxxx&app_code=xxxx&searchtext=”&coding&"", [Headers=[#”Accept-Encoding”=”gzip”]]), Compression.GZip),
#”Geconverteerd naar tabel” = Record.ToTable(Bron),
in
#”Geconverteerd naar tabel” ,
Source = Excel.Workbook(Web.Contents(“https://vanbruggen.sharepoint.com/sites/ManagementInformatie/Gedeelde%20%20documenten/Excel 2.0/Afspraken 2018 2.0 (nieuw).xlsx”), null, true),
Blad1_Sheet = Source{[Item=”Blad1″,Kind=”Sheet”]}[Data],
#”Headers met verhoogd niveau” = Table.PromoteHeaders(Blad1_Sheet, [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
#”Query toegevoegd” = Table.Combine({#”Headers met verhoogd niveau”, Afspraken2017, #”Blad1 (2)”}),
#”Rijen gefilterd” = Table.SelectRows(#”Query toegevoegd”, each ([Jaar] 2019)),
#”Query toegevoegd1″ = Table.Combine({#”Rijen gefilterd”, #”Rapportage Inbound 0800″}),
#”Kolommen verwijderd” = Table.RemoveColumns(#”Query toegevoegd1″,{“Column50”, “Column51”, “Column52”, “Column53″}),
#”Type gewijzigd” = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#”Kolommen verwijderd”,{{“Beldatum”, type date}}),
#”Aangepaste kolom toegevoegd” = Table.AddColumn(#”Type gewijzigd”, “DatumKey”, each Date.ToText([Beldatum],”yyyyMMdd”)),
#”Filtered Rows” = Table.SelectRows(#”Aangepaste kolom toegevoegd”, each true),
#”Renamed Columns” = Table.RenameColumns(#”Filtered Rows”,{{“CTPID”, “Afspraken”}}),
#”Type gewijzigd1″ = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#”Renamed Columns”,{{“Huisnummer”, type text}, {“Postcode”, type text}}),
in
#”Type gewijzgd1"I've also tried to define the function within every query that is merged into this one but that aslo didn't help.
My next step is to use Relative Path and Query to improve the query but maybe some people have other ideas?Hi,
