GET request to Github

Hello all,

Has anyone tried to do GET from github with PowerQuery?, with token.

 

I keep getting http status code 404.

Hi @Yatz86 ,

 

I have followed a tutorial here: How to Use Power BI to Get GitHub Reports , and it works on my side.

The 404 code means that a server could not find a client-requested webpage. So it may be that the Owner/Repository name is not correct.

Thank you so much @Anonymous.

I'm building a report to extract issues from all repos.

This is exactly what I needed to get the data and to build the data model later on

 

You're awesome😉
