Web API connection
- 4 years ago
Hi Sam_Jain ,
hard to tell, quickly went through all the other answers here without checking all the links and details.
So I assume that you're using anonymus authentication with the key?
If that's not working, I would recommend to compare the generated queries by Postman and PBI using Fiddler or any other tool.
See where the queries differ and try to adjust accordingly.
Hi Sam,
Can you please share how you managed to authenticate.. Still i got stuck to establish the connection.
See the below error. but everything works fine in Postman
Hey Peter_Jeyaraj_I Sorry for the delay in response.
You can overcome that error by entering the api key name as well as value on the Get Data->Web->Advanced
Enter the URL and under the Request Header Parameters enter the key name alongside with the Key value.
And then choose Anyonymous under authentication.
Tio note - In this case the value was passed via header so if that's how it works for you on Postman as well then this should be the solution.
Again apologies for the delay.
Thanks.
