Hi,
I'm using Power Query to make a API Request call. I'm facing the below error. Please advice.
let
body = "{
""method"": ""post"",
""params"": {
""grant_type"":""password"",
""username"": ""****"",
""password"": ""***""
}
}",
Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("****", [Headers=[Authorization= "Basic ZUU1aFBpbWxVSjJjRDFmbGU5WGNMMF9mbW1ZYTpIQnk5TDExam14ZnVmRGYyVmxfTnZJbWVIM1lh",
CacheControl="no-cache", ContentType="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"], Content=Text.ToBinary(body)]))
in
#"Source"
I'm facing the below error:
DataSource.Error: Web.Contents failed to get contents from '***' (415): Unsupported Media Type
Details:
DataSourceKind=Web
Thanks
Hi @Anonymous ,
Does this API have api key? If does, you could use key to replace username and password and check if it works.
