I am having issues needed to make a table of 3 columns from a REST API response using Power Query M language.
Below is my code ( at the end of which my table 'newTable' still remains empty.
let
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://admcorpdev.service-now.com/api/now/stats/incident?sysparm_query=active%3Dtrue%5EpriorityIN1%2C2&sysparm_count=true&sysparm_group_by=caller_id.location.u_region%2Cpriority")),
result = Table.FromRecords(Source[result]),
newTable = #table(
{
"Priority",
"Region",
"Count"
},
{}
),
TableSource = Table.Buffer(result),
data = List.Generate(
() => [x=0],
each [x]<= Table.RowCount(result),
each [
//Generate a new Table and append fields into it
newTable = Table.InsertRows(newTable,1,{[Priority = "2", Region ="NA",Count = "56"]}),
x=[x]+1]
)
in
newTable
So i have mixed bag of List and record in my data coming in which i want to load in one table with 3 fields.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Try the updated code as below.
let
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://admcorpdev.service-now.com/api/now/stats/incident?sysparm_query=active%3Dtrue%5EpriorityIN1%2C2&sysparm_count=true&sysparm_group_by=caller_id.location.u_region%2Cpriority")),
result = Table.FromRecords(Source[result]),
newTable = #table(
{
"Priority",
"Region",
"Count"
},
{}
),
TableSource = Table.Buffer(result),
data = List.Generate(
() => [x=0],
each [x]<= Table.RowCount(result),
each [
//Generate a new Table and append fields into it
newTable = Table.InsertRows(newTable,1,{[Priority = "2", Region ="NA",Count = "56"]}),
x=[x]+1]
)
in
TableSource
