Hi,
There is no such webpart in Kentico. You should write custom code to load data from api.

You have the right idea Nadia, either my universal API viewer with hierarchy of you need to repeat with hierarchy support, otherwise a custom data source to consume the json and convert it into a data table.

You need to import it like you would other tools, but make sure to check "include files" and "include global files" when you import.

After that you follow the instructions, clone it and code it to consume your json.
