    Hi flo3o ,

     

    You can create a dataflow and then put the code in your screenshot into a blank query.

     

    You can also try to select LinkedIn Learning in the data flow and fill in the corresponding parameters in the corresponding position.

    For more details, please refer to the document:

    LinkedIn Learning API - First Steps - LinkedIn | Microsoft Learn

     

    If your Current Period does not refer to this, please clarify in a follow-up reply.

     

    Best Regards,

    Clara Gong

Hi flo3o were you able to find a solution? As a workaround, maybe you can try to test your connection with a 3rd party connector. I currently use windsor.ai 's Linkedin Ads connector and I haven't had any problem with my data. In case you wonder, to make the connection first search for the Linkedin connector in the data sources list:

 

 

After that, just grant access to your Linkedin account using your credentials, then on preview and destination page you will see a preview of your Linkedin fields:

 

 

There just select the fields you need. Finally, just select PBI as your data destination and finally just copy and paste the url on PBI --> Get Data --> Web --> Paste the url.
