    We want to create a new Job in UC4 , that should be able to talk to the power BI cloud . We want to make an API call to power BI from UC4. Is that possible and is there any documentation that can be followed to achieve this? Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello Kumar Rahul,

    well Automic is in mainly an automation tool. That means if you can do what you need manually on every OS Platform, Automic is the right tool to automate it. 

    Well for your task maybe there are serveral tools available. From linux based systems there could be curl or wget a helpful companion. This depends on your use case. Before you're thinking how to implement it with automic, think about how you could implement it manually. After this automic is a helpful tool to automate the process.

    Best regards

    Hi Rahul,

    I agree with Andrzej's point. Additionally, exploring the RA Web Service REST Jobs within Automic could be a good solution for interacting with Power BI cloud via API calls.

    To get started, ensure that the RA Web Service solution is imported into your Automation Engine. Then, configure the RA Web Service Agent following the guidelines provided in the documentation linked below:

    RA Web Service Agent Integration Documentation

    Once configured, you should be able to implement your logic within Automic using the RA Web Service REST Jobs.
