REST API data source dynamically built from previous separate REST API data source

I'm trying to get data from TeamCity into Power BI. The data is for each build and I get the list of builds with a separate call.

 

http://teamcityserver/guestAuth/app/rest/builds

 

Which returns something like this:

 

| Attribute:href | build.Attribute:id | build.Attibute:buildTypeId | build.Attribute:number |

 

How can I then dynamically make more data sources by calling the API again with 

 

http://teamcityserver/guestAuth/app/rest/builds?buildTypeLocator=ExampleBuildTypeId

 

Where ExampleBuildTypeId would be taken from the previous call to the API.

 

Thanks for any help

@moefinley,

You can add custom column in Power BI Desktop by calling function to return the result of all the calls. For more details, please review the following similar threads.
