Hi WillianSousa 

 

How much time would Postman run to get the response from the same API? If it also runs several minutes, you can try adding the Timeout property to Web.Contents() function to set a longer timeout value. Web.Contents - PowerQuery M

    Hi v-jingzhang 

     

    thanks your collaboration. It runs really fast in Postman, less than 2 seconds to retrieve the response.

     

    I have added 10min of Timeout but it gets the same result.

     

    It seems to be an issue with the root url, but I need to understand what must be changed in the API, since I have no clue of what is happening under the hood

      Hi WillianSousa 

       

      Can you generate the cURL code of the request from Postman and share it here after removing sensitive information?

       

      Best regards,

      Jing

        **I'm not an IT person, so I don't know if cookies are sensitive, that is why added the dark rows upon it.
