POST API Call in Power Query

Hi Power BI Community

 

I am struggling with calling an API in Power Query. I am not good at the framework of how I would call an API that requires a static bearer token along with a body and headers. I called it successfully in POSTMAN but need help with the code in Power Query.

 

Please see my code below which I have changed the token and other elements for data security:

 

Thanking you very much in advance.

 

 

let
    url = "https://sb2.replicon.com/ATP/services/ReportService1.svc/GenerateReport",
    body = "reportUri"= "urn:replicon-tenant:af0682a50:report:4ca3-93bf-5b0f5dc07dc7",
    filterValues = [],
    outputFormatUri = "urn:replicon:report-output-format-option:csv",
    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents(url,[Content=Text.ToBinary(body),
    Headers=
    [#"Content-Type"="application/json"]
    [#"X-Replicon-Application"]="companykey-leaveatp"]
    [#"Authorization"] = "Bearer IzJ6ZGW1ZDA2ZDMDk"
    ]))

      v-luwang-msft Thanks but I am not winning with that info.

       

      I adjusted the query which is giving me an invalid identifier error:

       

       

      	let
    url = "https://sb2.replicon.com/ATP/services/ReportService1.svc/GenerateReport",
    body  = "reportUri"= "urn:replicon-tenant:503a24bcd3809:report:d6b-b33c-4ca3-93bf-5dc7",
    filterValues = [],
    outputFormatUri = "urn:replicon:report-output-format-option:csv",
    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents(url,[Content=Text.ToBinary(body),
    Parsed_JSON = Json.Document(body),
    BuildQueryString = Uri.BuildQueryString(Parsed_JSON),
    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents(url,
    [Headers = 
    [#"Content-Type"="application/json"],
    [#"X-Replicon-Application"="companykey-leavebalance"],
    [#"Authorization" = "Bearer llOThhZGE1ZDDA2ZDM4MDk"],	
	Content = Text.ToBinary(BuildQueryString)]  ))
