You use the regular Web.Contents() call and specify the payload in the Content  section.

 

let
    url = "https://app.salsify.com",
    payload = "{\""configuration\"": {\""entity_type\"": \""all\"",\""filter\"": \""=list:default\"",\""properties\"": \""'UPC','Product Name','Brand','Main Image','Short Description','Long Description'\"",\""include_all_columns\"": false,\""sort_order\"": \""desc\"",\""sort_property\"": \""Brand\""}}",
    Source = Web.Contents(url,[Headers=[#"Content-Type"= "application/json",Authorization = "Bearer s-999-999-999-999"],Content=Text.ToBinary(payload)])
in
    Source

 

Without access to the API that's all the help we can provide.

    Hello lbendlin 
    sorry for taking time to answer you.
    I share with you below the link of the site which gives you more information about the API. https://developers.salsify.com/reference/get-export-status

    I've been trying to connect to the site for more than a week.

    The site tells me to use
    org_id : in our example we will use ABCDE
    export_id : in our example we will use XYZ

    here is the code that the site generates for me in python and I would like to transform it into M language in the query.

    is this possible ?

    import http.client

conn = http.client.HTTPConnection("app.salsify.com")

payload = ""

headers = {
    'Content-Type': "application/json",
    'Authorization': "Bearer YOUR-AUTH-TOKEN",
    'User-Agent': "PostmanRuntime/7.19.0",
    'Accept': "*/*",
    'Cache-Control': "no-cache",
    'Host': "app.salsify.com",
    'Accept-Encoding': "gzip, deflate",
    'Cookie': "_cookie_id",
    'Connection': "keep-alive",
    'cache-control': "no-cache"
    }

conn.request("GET", "api,orgs,s-999-999-999-999,export_runs,19350473", payload, headers)

res = conn.getresponse()
data = res.read()

print(data.decode("utf-8"))

# where export_id = 19350473 org_id = s-999-999-999-999, api_token = YOUR-AUTH-TOKEN, cookie id = _cookie_id

    thanks for your help

      The process is the same as in my previous response, minus the payload. You switch between POST and GET by including a content option (or not).
