    Hi Anonymous,

    The 405 error normally means you are using some 'not allow' methods in these requests, perhaps you can change these parts of definitions in your data connector to fix this issue.

    405 Method Not Allowed - HTTP | MDN (mozilla.org)
    In addition, can you please share some more detail about the operations? I think they will help us clarify your scenario and troubleshoot.

    Regards,
