Hi Sowmiya,

 

Please try below approach:

 

1. Go to Get Data -> From Web and enter https://server/GetSessionToken (replace server with actual server name). Press OK.

api 1

 

2.  You will see a window with authorization types, choose Web API

3.  Enter your API Key into the text field and select full HTTP request from a dropdown list like below:

 

api 2

4. Press Connect.

 

P.S. If you will have errors you can post them here as well.

 

Regards,
Ruslan
