Use OData API for Business Views

Integration Resources provides the endpoints and credentials that insightsoftware products and external tools need to connect to your data.

To access Integration Resources, go to Data Hub > Connections and select Integration Resources in the top-right corner.

OData API (Business Views)

Integration Resources provides the OData API URL for accessing your published business views from any OData-compatible tool, such as Power BI.

URL

URL: https://develop.data-fabric.dev.insightsoftware.com/api/SharedData/odata/s_<business_view_id>

Use this URL to connect to a specific business view from any OData-compatible tool. Each business view has a unique URL. You can copy the full URL with the business view ID already included from the Business Views page.

Authentication

The OData API supports two authentication methods. Both use a token generated in Administration > Service to Service. To generate an access token with Data Fabric as the target, see Configure Service to Service Authentication.

Method Details

Basic Auth

Enter your token as the username. Leave the password blank.

API Key

Add the following header to your request: Api-Key: <token>

Note: Business views must be published in the Reports Center before they appear in OData. Once published, go to Data Hub > Business Views to manage these business views. See Manage Business Views for more information.
