Schedule Refresh Data Sources

I have a dataset that gets data from the API of a company. I need to schedule refresh but it shows this message:

 

You can't schedule refresh for this dataset because the following data sources currently don't support refresh

 

What can I do schedule the refresh of my dataset?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Pls read https://sqlserverbi.blog/2018/10/21/web-api-data-sources-with-power-query-and-scheduling-data-refres...

 

I think you need to keep a base URI for your API and then pass your Parameters seperately instead of giving all in the direct URL, which will be blocked by PowerBI Firewall and blocks you to make the refresh
