Hi experts,
I'm quite new with API requests done via power query. I am working on a request call but this one involves a body similar to this:
body =
"{
"loadDate": [
{
"start": "2025-01-16T00:00:00.001Z",
"end": "2025-01-16T23:59:59.999Z"
}
],
"orderBy": "loadDate"
},
webdata = Json.Document(Web.Contents(url,
[
Headers = header,
Content = Text.ToBinary(body)
]))
Can you help me with the right syntax in power query? Many thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
Double quotes in the text need to be escaped, using two " instead.
body =
"{
""loadDate"": [
{
""start"": ""2025-01-16T00:00:00.001Z"",
""end"": ""2025-01-16T23:59:59.999Z""
}
],
""orderBy"": ""loadDate""
}",
webdata = Json.Document(Web.Contents(url,
[
Headers = header,
Content = Text.ToBinary(body)
]))

That worked! Thanks a lot
