Rest API (w/ API key) as data source in Power BI Service Dataflow

Hello,

 

I am very familiar with Power BI and I have tested several free APIs in dataflows and had no issue.  This API is secured with an API key and requires a specific pathway in order to pull data (I might not be describing that correctly).

 

I have been parsing through many forum posts and videos to learn how to connect a Rest API as a data source for a dataflow and store all old requests as a dataset.  Many of the posts look similar but I have yet to find one explaining the exact method they use described in the link below.

 

Here is the API documentation - https://xeneta.github.io/XenAPIv2/

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

 

Ted

Hi @filetheo

 

You can refer this:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/dataflows/get-dataflow-data-sources

I'm not clear your expected output about 'store all old requests as a dataset'.

Could you provide more details?
