Power bi Service

How can I call the api in Power bi Service like we have option to call the api in destop

  • Hi Anonymous,
    Thanks for using Microsoft Fabric Community,
    In PowerbI Service/Fabric you can call the API using DataFlows/Power query
    Steps:
    1. Create a DataFlow Gen2 in PowerBI Service
    2. Click on Get Data>more>WebAPI

     


    In the Dataflow itself, you can transform the data and choose a data destination (Lakehouse/Warehouse). From there, you can build your report.
    Alternatively, you can save the Dataflow and connect to it in Power BI Desktop via Get Data > Power BI Dataflows to build your report and publish it back to the service.

    Please reach out for further assistance.

    If this post helps please accept as solution and a Kudos would be appreciated.
    Thanks & regards.
