I have put together a simple query that uses POST to get a token. No matter what I do the server returns 400 error. The same thing is working fine in Postman. If I make a mistake in Postman like misspelling a parameter then I get a message back saying that. In PBI Desktop while running my query I am not getting anything back meaning the server simply refuses to process it. Is there any way to debug things like this?
Thanks

@PhilipTreacy The API is a part of the app running on my local system. It's not a public API. What I see is that Fiddler is only reacting on the traffic going from Browsers.
Hi @Markzolotoy
What API are you trying to access?
Do you now if it is protected by a web firewall like Sucuri or Imperva?
If so then it may be that these firewalls are blocking the connection from PBI.
Please link to the API doumentation so I can investigate.
