Using Azure Data Factory to get data from a REST API
Is it possible to use Azure Data Factory to get data from a REST API and insert it to a Azure database table?

For example: { "name": "HttpLinkedService", "properties": { "type": "Http", "typeProperties": { "authenticationType": "Anonymous", "url" : "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/" } } } I have done this using Custom .Net Activities.
