Hello Experts,
I am in need of some assistance,
let
// Define the base URL and initial page number
baseUrl = Tenant & Component_Base_API,
pageNumber = 1,
// Define the API key
apiKey = APIKey,
// Define a function to get data from a specific page
GetPageData = (page) =>
let
// Construct the URL for the specific page
url = baseUrl & "?page=" & Text.From(page),
// Make the API call and parse the JSON response
response = Json.Document(Web.Contents(url, [Headers=[#"api-key"=apiKey]])),
// Extract the 'Page' array from the response
pageData = response[Data][Page]
in
// Return the page data
pageData,
// Initialize an empty list to store all page data
allPages = {},
// Start a loop to fetch pages until no more data is returned
FetchPages = (page) =>
let
// Get data from the current page
pageData = GetPageData(page),
// Check if there are any results on the page
noResults = List.IsEmpty(pageData),
// If there are results, append them to the list of all pages
// Continue fetching the next page if there are more results
// Otherwise, exit the loop
nextPage = if noResults then null else FetchPages(page + 1),
// Return the current pageData or an empty list if no results
currentData = if noResults then {} else pageData
in
// Return the concatenated list of page data
currentData & nextPage,
// Call the FetchPages function starting from the initial page
result = FetchPages(pageNumber),
// Convert the result into a table
table = Table.FromList(result, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
// Promote headers from the first row
promotedHeaders = Table.PromoteHeaders(table, [PromoteAllScalars = true])
in
promotedHeaders
So I am working with the API and I am using parameters to funnel the base URL & API key in.
I seem to be running into the below error:
Expression.Error: We cannot convert the value 1 to type List.
Details:
Value=1
Type=[Type]
In the call I get a collumn with the current page number & i also get a uri with the full next page URI, so my code is trying to take the page number collumn + 1 and create the new call to get the data until ther is no other pages left to get
Im stumped on the fact i entered 1 and the list error that is I am getting back
Hello @v-jingzhan-msft
The initial call is returning as below
{
"Page": <Integer>,
"Next": <Uri>,
"Results": <Array of Component Model>
}
The component model referenced above is below if it matters
[
{
"Id": <Guid>,
"Name": <String>,
"SnippetTag": <String>,
"VesselComponentId": <Guid>,
"ParentComponentId": <Guid>,
"AssetId": <Guid>,
"Active": <Boolean>,
"Deactivated": <DateTime>,
"ComponentTypeId": <Guid>,
"ComponentTypeName": <String>,
"EssentialSystem": <Boolean>,
"MakeId": <Guid>,
"MakeName": <String>,
"ModelId": <Guid>,
"ModelName": <String>,
"Modified": <DateTime>,
"SerialNumber": <String>,
"PartNumber": <String>,
"ReceivePropagatedReadings": <Boolean>,
"UserDefined": User Defined Data Model (see User Defined Fields section for more details)
},
....
