I have this code, but I wanna get all date of my students,at once. With this code below I get one-per-one

 

let
url = "http://webservices.sponteweb.com.br/WSApiSponteRest/api/students",

Body = "{""student_id"": ""61""}",

source = Json.Document(Web.Contents(url, [Headers = [#"Content-Type"="application/json", #"Accept"="application/json", #"api_key"="XXXXX"], Content = Text.ToBinary(Body)]))

Hi @ViniDreamit 

 

You can call the API repeatedly using List.Transform as is shown in this similar question

 

Solved: Re: DATA for multiple years - Microsoft Power BI Community

 

 

For you, you could use code liek this heer the Student ID's are specified in a list - this example just gets ID's 1 to 5.  Change this accordingly.

let
    url = "http://webservices.sponteweb.com.br/WSApiSponteRest/api/students",
    StudentIDs = {1 .. 5},

    GetWebPage = (StudentID) => let

        Body = "{""student_id"": """ & StudentID & """}",

        Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents(url, [Headers = [#"Content-Type"="application/json", #"Accept"="application/json", #"api_key"="XXXXX"], Content = Text.ToBinary(Body)]))
        
    in Source,
    
    
    WebPages = List.Transform(StudentIDs, each GetWebPage(Text.From(_))),
    #"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(WebPages, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error)    
    
in
    #"Converted to Table"

 

Or if you have a column with the sudent ID's, that coudl be passed into the function to call the API.  If this is the case please provide some sample data and/or an image of your table so I can see how it is structured.

 

Regards
