Loading data with Rest API in Power Query

Do you want to load data into Power BI with REST APIs? REST APIs are everywhere. They are a great way to get data from one system to another, but they can be difficult to work with if you don't know where to start.

In this session, you will learn how to use Postman to explore a REST API. You will learn how to find the information you need in the API documentation, and how to use that information to create a Power Query function that loads the data into Power BI using the built-in web connector.

After attending this session you will be able to find and use API documentation, authenticate with an API, and prototype API calls in Postman. You will also have knowledge about the use of the Power Query REST API connector to load data from REST APIs into Power BI.

Topics:
- REST API
- API Documentation
- API Authentication
- Prototyping in Postman
- Power Query
