Hi Markzolotoy,
You can see when you use web data source to get data, you just need to place the URL and extract records from the dataset. But in your scenario, the extracted records don't contain any fact data. So it's not a good option to use web data source if you want to get fact data.

How come if I save my data into a file and then use that file for a data source then everything works fine? Search for my other message about json data. Same problem. Cannot get data when it's returned by a webservice, but the same json from the file is working fine.
