Since the last few Power BI updates users must enter OData URL for each OData web services.

From the last few Power BI updates, we have available Dynamics NAV connector in Power BI.

This Dynamics NAV Connector is currently in beta, but to get them to just go to Get Data -> Dynamics NAV and choose Dynamics NAV (beta).
