Parameter whole range or table in Excel Power Query - excel

Question

I have an Excel sheet with a column containing IDs of items I want to retrieve
||ID||
|123|
|124|
|125|
The API I am calling can take an array of IDs as input (e.g. https://API.com/rest/items?ID=123&ID=124&ID=125....(up to 50))
and returns one JSON.
"data": [
{
"id": 123,
"fields": {
"name": "blah blah",
"description": "some description",
}
},
{
"id": 124,
"fields": {
"name": "blah bli",
"description": "some description",
}
},
{
"id": 125,
"fields": {
"name": "blah blo",
"description": "some description",
}
},...
]
}
I would like to load data from this JSON in another table or sheet.
||ID||Name||
|123|blah blah|
|124|blahblo|
|125|blahbli|
I would know how to parameterise the query by referencing single cells, but if I am retrieving 100+ items, that's a lot of work.
Can't I somehow build a query that gets each value (ID) from the table or range in one simple move?
--edit1--
Found another API endpoint where I can provide an array of IDs. (before I thought it was only possible to send one ID per request to retrieve one JSON at a time)
--edit2--
Maybe I can concatenate all IDs into the request URL already in an Excel cell and parameterise just based on that one cell. (still experimenting)

If you've got the JSON for each ID, then you just need to pull out the name part.
For example, if you have a column [JSON] with the JSON for each ID, then you can create a custom column using Json.Document([JSON])[data][name] as the formula.
You can likely combine pulling the JSON and parsing it into a single step if you'd like.
