    Hi yakkalipavan,

     

    From your description, you already provide the access key in Power Query, but you didn't choose Anonymous authentication for the web data source, so the error throws out.

     

    Please open Data Source Settings, then find the web data source, choose Anonymous like below: 

     

     

    Update: Please mask the actual data source domain name in the screenshot. 

     

    Best Regards,
    Qiuyun Yu

Hi @yakkalipavan,

 

Have you resolved this?

 

It's working for me with Anonymous authentication in Desktop.

 

let     
    Source = (Collection as text, QueryID as text) => let
    AuthKey = "Basic APIKEY(camouflaged-> i use Postman)",
    url="https://tfs.primaverabss.com/tfs",
    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents(url,[
    Headers = [#"Authorization"= AuthKey ,
                #"Content-Type"= "application/json"],
                RelativePath= Collection & "/_apis/wit/wiql/"& QueryID &"?api-version=1.0"
              ]
                        ))
    
in
   Source

But when i publish this in web i can't use any credentials because this error:

Can anyone help me?
