    HI JordanPearson,

    According to the error message, it seems like you directly input API key value into the data connector, right? AFAIK, this connector will require you to define what type of API key that sends to the API service. (normally they will be defined as 'key name' = 'key value' to use in the connector)

    Here is the sample query:

    let
    Source =
        OData.Feed(
            "<API URL>",
            null,
            [Headers = [
                #"ApiKey" = "<YOUR API KEY>"
            ]]
        )
in
    Source

    Notice: #"ApiKey" part can be changed, you can check the API document definition first.

    Regards,

We were able to use the private app.. just needed to use the API key for the private app.    As I stated in a reply to the general thread though.  We have moved to use Snowflake as our "Data Warehouse/lake" solution. The main driver being that HS has a direct synch with Snowflake.  If you have snowflake and you are setup to use/pay for the Data Synch then all the extraction issues with HS go away.  You still have to then extract from the Snowflake Tables and deal with the HS data model.  but you are not going to hit rate limits and such and you can use Snowflake to aggregate where needed or use SQL to get Transform data as necessary.     A much better solution..
