I was trying to understand if there is any feature available that would allow you to export the API query results to formats such as csv, xls, etc. But i did not find it. So i wonder if i am missing something, but the requirement would be to be able to easily export the results of a given query that i execute against my API hosted in API Management. Thanks
Only /reports API support returning results in format other than JSON and only in CSV.

I have a requirement where I need to search a particular term in App insights and then export this 'report' and send it in the email. Consider this as "report a bug" use case.
So if I search key "xxxxxx123", it should retrieve all matching traces/logs and then export it to either excel or CSV.
So my question is, is it possible with the NuGet package or even with REST API?
I tried looking at this, but couldn't find it helpful,

There is no nuget package. You can do it by using the Get query rest api.
Write any query you need in the Query textbox, then in the right side, you can see the generated request. Then you can use c# or other programming language to query the results, as per this article.(Note: remember use your real Application ID and API Key).
Add a screenshot for your reference:
After fetch the data, you should write your own logic to export it to csv or excel.
Can we create an Alexa Skill that could read out the data on my CSV (or JSON) file? I would like to create a voice-bot to read out my weekly report. I can have my report available in either CSV or JSON format.
It would be great if we aren't using any already built 3rd party apps. I would like to write it from scratch.
As a short answer, yes. That should totally be possible. I currently have a skill that gets the response from a JSON file (it gets the required response, based on the intent of the user).
A CSV file should be fine too - you just need to parse it.
If your file is dynamic and changes often, you could potentially store the file in AWS S3, and fetch/read the content from there.
Once you have the string value for your speech response, from the JSON/CSV - just use that.
It doesn't say how you'd write your skill - but the SDK for Node.js is pretty straight forward, and the documentation is good (with lots of examples too).
Let me start out by saying I am a SQL Server Database expert, not a coder so making API calls is certainly not an everyday task for me.
Having said that, I am trying to use the Azure Data Factory's data copy tool to import data from Clio to an Azure SQL Server database. I have had some limited success, data is copied over using the API and inserted into the target table but paging really seems to be an issue. I am testing this with the billable_clients call and the first 25 records with the fields I specify are inserted along with the paging record. As I understand, the billable_clients call is eligible for bulk actions which may be the solution, although I've not been able to figure out how it works. The url I am calling is below:
https://app.clio.com/api/v4/billable_clients.json?fields=id,unbilled_hours,name
Using Postman I've tried to make the same call while adding X-BULK true to the header but that returns no results. If there is anyone that can shed some light on how the X-BULK header flag is used when making a call, or if anyone has any experience loading Clio data into a SQL Server database I'd love some feedback on your methods.
If any additional information regarding my attempts or setup would help please let me know.
Thanks!
you need to download the json files with Bulk API and then update them in DB.
It isn't possible to directly insert the data
I'm trying to integrate with Microsoft OneDrive service. I read API docs and went throw Authorization. Unfortunatelly, there's no info in docs about creating different File types.
I created a .txt file using HTTP Requests as it's written here https://dev.onedrive.com/items/upload_put.htm .
When I'm trying to create an Excel file this way, it does, but the document doesn't open. I think I need to send some special params (metadata?) also, but I don't know which ones.
I would be very pleased for any help :)
I would like to import weather forecasts in PowerPivot for a specified country by using Yahoo API.
So first of all I got the data stream URL including all requiered parameters to get forecasts (it works in my browser).
https://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20*%20from%20weather.forecast%20where%20woeid%3D612977&format=json&diagnostics=true&callback=
Then I tried to use it as "Other data Stream" in PowerPivot to grab the content.
However I got the following strange error about DTD :
Cannot connect to the specified feed. Verify the connection and try
again. Reason: For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML
document. To enable DTD processing set the DtdProcessing property on
XmlReaderSettings to Parse and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create
method
Any idea to solve that ?
The easiest was to install PowerQuery for Microsoft Excel then creating a new request to Yahoo Web Services.
After parsing data in PowerQuery (split columns, etc) , formatted data is available in a PowerPivot tab and you can use it as well as direct imported data in PowerPivot.
