Issue with python connection

Hi all,

I'm currently encountering an issue when trying to connect my Python code with Power BI.

Interestingly, all Python code I execute runs successfully in Visual Studio Code, but I'm encountering difficulties when attempting to retrieve the associated table in Power BI.

Below is an example of code that runs smoothly in Visual Studio Code:

The same code, when implemented in Power BI, does not display any table.

I'm seeking your support to resolve this matter.

Regards

Hi @lbendlin,

thanks for replying to me. 

I'm trying to retrieve all devices from our Merak dashboard portal. 

its possible to use the standard web call in PowerBi but we have a limit of 1000 items we can retrieve based on Meraki documentation (https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/get-organization-devices/).

With Python, we can bypass this limitation that why I'm trying to use it but I experiencing issue with getting the table in PowerBI.

 

Regards

Thanks for providing this ressource. I'll give it a try and update you accordingly.

By any chance, do you know why the Python code isn't generating the table?

What do you need Python for? Can you do a standard Web call in Power BI?
