Hi,
I'd like to build a report based on a json file that's within a private GitHub repo.
That file is regularly updated and I'd like the report to automatically pick those changes up.
Is this possible? I couldn't find a way to get the json file from the repo.
Thanks,
David

Hi, @david_obrien1
To load a JSON file from the web, select the Web connector, enter the web address of the file, and follow any credential prompts.
You may need to create a personal access token in GitHub and then use the Basic authentication method to connect PowerBI to private GitHub.
Please check the below similar thread.
