A web API key can only be specified when a web API key name is provided
Accordig to the documentation you provided the API doesn't support authentication using an API key. It only supports a bearer token to be used (either in the headers or in the URL).

thank you for your feedback JirkaZ
I'm afraid I don't understand?so the connection with power bi is not possible?
if not, which link should I use?
I am quite new with this kind of subject, can you give me more details?
I thank you for the time you spend with me.
looks,
It means that your URL for the web request should look like:
https://app.salsify.com/api/orgs/ABCDEFG/export_runs?access_token=YOUR-AUTH-TOKEN
and in the dialog above you should select Anonymous.But I noticed the Export Run is a POST command so it won't be as easy as that.
You'll have to specify the request body too.

it still doesn't work, I am desperate...I'll show you my approach:
you asked me to use the following link: "https://app.salsify.com/api/orgs/{org_id}/export_runs?access_token=YOUR-AUTH-TOKEN"
according to the site my {org_id} is here :
we will say that in this example it is "ABCDEFG"
the second parameter I need is my "YOUR-AUTH-TOKEN".
and still according to the site it tells me that it is here :in our example this one is "XYZ"
now when I assemble the information in power bi I get this error message
What I want to know is, is this the right approach?
if so, why do I get this error message
thanks for your help
