HI,
Having issues loading an API into Power BI.
I am using the data source "From Web"
My Api looks like this -
https://api.websupervisor.net/v1.1/myname/units/genset91ac6e885c474a67bb55663bf2bda8c0/values
I have an authorization String (bearer xxxxxxxxxxxx) and a Comap-Key (Api Key).
I have added the URL above into the URL Parts, added both Authorization and Comap-Key to the HTTP request header parameters.
Getting this message -
Unable to connect
We encountered an error while trying to connect.
Details "The 'Authorisation' header is only supported when connecting anonymously.
These hearders can be used with all authentication types: Accept, accept-Charset, accept-Encoding, Accept-Language, Cache-Control, Content Type, If-Modified-Since, Prefer, Range, Referer"
Any help appreciated.
Thanks Mark
Solved! Go to Solution.
Clear the data source credentials for that data source, and then when asked to authenticate choose anonymous.
