Hi @Anonymous 

Try this way referring from this post: How to get data from REST API (JSON) in Power BI?

You need to use Power Query and Web.Contents connector.

Select:   New Source - Blank Query and in the source window enter:

   " = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://amshowa.leading2lean.com/api/1.0/billofmaterials/?   

           auth=xxxxxxt&site=1&limit=2000&active=True"))"  (your own API)

And you can refer to this post for more details about how to use a REST API as a data source.
