The pieces

One source, one destination.

Expedia

Expedia pairs guest reviews with a rates endpoint that returns nightly prices for concrete dates. The property ID sits right in the hotel URL, after the h. On this page those reviews feed Power BI, one row per review.

Power BI

Power BI talks to REST APIs natively through Power Query. No connector to install: the Web source plus one request header gets the JSON in, and scheduled refresh keeps it current. Here it becomes the front end for live Expedia reviews.

The call

One endpoint returns Expedia reviews.

The Expedia Hotel Reviews endpoint returns clean JSON for one hotel. Send your key in the X-API-Key header. See the endpoint docs for every parameter.

GET Expedia Hotel Reviews /v1/expedia/hotel/reviews https://api.stayapi.com/v1/expedia/hotel/reviews?property_id=1582716

Setup

Wire Power BI to the endpoint.

01

Create a StayAPI account and copy your API key from the dashboard.
02

In Power BI Desktop, choose Get Data > Web > Advanced.
03

Enter the endpoint URL and add an x-api-key request header.
04

Expand the JSON in Power Query, load it, and set a scheduled refresh in the service.

Config

Power Query: one M expression.

This uses the real endpoint URL with the example hotel id. Swap in your hotel id and your API key.
