  2. Click +Add an App.
  3. Create an app titled [Your Company - Power BI] and set a contact email. Select Create App.

Generate a secure API Key from within the Yext platform.

  1. Move to the API Credentials tab to set your API permissions.
  2. Click to Add an endpoint for your API. You should select Knowledge API > Analytics endpoint.
  3. Set your API to have Read Only permissions. Read APIs simply pull and ingest information from a system, you will not need to set Write permissions since you will not need to push any updates to Yext. Your API key will be generated beneath for you to copy & paste into Power BI.
