Feature request: query a REST API

Is there any plans to allow queries (questions) based on REST API?

Thanks

Yes, there’s documentation for how to do this here: https://github.com/metabase/metabase/wiki/Using-the-REST-API

Hi Maz,
I may be misunderstanding. But I am talking about using a REST API as a database. Cloud9 do this.
In other words, I would like to create charts that represent data, that is pulled via API.

Oh, no, I clearly misunderstood what you were asking. I thought you meant you wanted to use Metabase’s API. I’m not sure if we’ve heard this request before, so I’d welcome you to peruse our GitHub issues and create a new one to request this feature if you can’t find an existing one. Thanks!
