    Is this a public API?  If so, you can provide it and the community can provide the needed M code.

     

    Does the Source step of your query look like this?  (check by clicking on Advanced Editor or viewing the Formula Bar in the query editor)

     

    let
    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("http://mywebapi"))

    If this works for you, please mark it as solution.  Kudos are appreciated too.  Please let me know if not.
