Help with error 23353: Failed to parse. 'DateTime' compatible data type is required for parameter

[PauloAlvarez]

I'm building a pipeline in my Microsoft Fabric and trying to retrieve data from a rest API using my credentials (Basic Auth). The error I'm getting is that for the two parameters this API accepts dateStart and dateEnd it should be DateTime, but it doesn't recognize it from my query. Here's the error:

Error code: 23353

Details: Rest call failed with client error, status code 400 BadRequest, please check your activity settings. Request URL: https://plateform.outsystemscloud.com/API/rest/WTW/GetSales?dateStart=%7BdateStart%7D&dateEnd=%7Bdat.... Response: {"Errors":["Failed to parse. 'DateTime' compatible data type is required for parameter 'dateStart'.","Failed to parse request exception message: 'The value '{dateStart}' is not valid for DateTime.'","Failed to parse. 'DateTime' compatible data type is required for parameter 'dateEnd'.","Failed to parse request exception message: 'The value '{dateEnd}' is not valid for DateTime.'"],"StatusCode":400}

Activity ID: cff4ecc7-8a01-462e-8ca9-84873891fbc7

I'm using this as my base URL https://plateform.outsystemscloud.com/

The relative URL is: /API/rest/WTW/GetSales?dateStart={dateStart}&dateEnd={dateEnd}

My pagination rules are set to QueryParameters = {dateStart}, Body = 2024-03-01T00:00:00 and QueryParameters = {dateEnd}, Body = 2024-03-01T23:59:59

If I write as base URL https://plateform.outsystemscloud.com/API/rest/WTW/GetSales?dateStart=2024-03-01T00:00:00&dateEnd=20... and select preview data, I get a response and the preview data is shown. But I want to be able to make dateStart and End as parameters.

What can be the error?

Also see the result when I use the query as/API/rest/WTW/GetSales?dateStart=2024-03-01T00:00:00&dateEnd=2024-03-01T23:59:59

Hi @PauloAlvarez ,

Thanks for using Fabric Community.
I would like to understand why you are using Pagination Rules in your case?

Docs to understand Pagination rules - Link 

You can directly use static values for datestart and dateend at relative url itself or you can also set variable to set the values for datestart and dateend.

Method 1 -

Method 2 -

Hope this is helpful. Please let me know incase of further queries.
