I would like to "GetData" from web API using AAD authentication. Is there a way to do it?

It's not currently possible to use AAD in this fashion, though it's something we want to enable eventually.

Hi,

 

In PowerBI Desktop you can use "Web" connector and fil in you're API URL.

I use it with basique authentification and it's work fine !

 

Regards.

How do I use the "Web" connector when I need to use POST method?
