Publishing PLC data to Power BI using API stream dataset
How to live stream data from any industrial device and PLC into Power BI using its API stream dataset
The following video shows you how to stream data into Power BI by using its API stream dataset and SIA Connect and visualizing it in a Report or Dashboard. The steps shown in the video are as follows:
- Setup Streaming Dataset using API in PowerBI to stream real live data
- Configuring the structure of the dataset
- Setting up SIA Connect to connect data points into the API dataset in Power BI
- Generating a Dashboard in Power BI to visualize the live data
This enables data to be streamed from any of the many supported PLCs, robots, meters etc.
