I am connection to a REST API with multiple Endpoints. Does anyone have experience with setting up a control table for TimeXtender to use to dynamically change the endpoints instead of creating an endpoint per table?

Hi @Christian Hauggaard ,

I had a look at the links but they do not cover the scenario. I have many tables to fetch using end points for different datasets via a single baseURL. Instead of creating each end point manually and having 50 end points in the REST API Data Connection, is it possible to point the End Point to a control table or config table with all of the end point names? E.g., in Azure Data Factory it is possible to specify a parameter and then use a lookup function to call from the control table the values to collect data. I want to know if there is a similar option in TimeXtender to managing it using parameters,
