Web data source Advanced Settings - missing HTTP request header parameters

Hi,

 

I am attempting to set up a web API in PowerBI desktop. Using the Web connector, I got into advanced and expect to see 'Authorization' underneath HTTP request header parameters, however this is not here. Whats up with that? Articles online show this as an available value

 

  • Hey kr21 ,

     

    the list are just proposals of commonly used header parameters. If you need another one like "Authorization" you can just type that in and give it a value.

    Like this you are not limited for certain parameters.

     

    If you need any help please let me know.
    If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
     
    Best regards
