Calling API with web or Odata and receiving empty results

Hi everyone,

I am trying to retrieve data from this SAP API using the Web Connector:

https://XXXX.sap.XXXX.XXXX:44300/sap/opu/odata/sap/TAB1/TAB1?$select=Product&$format=json

When I make the call with Postman or open the link in a browser, I correctly get the JSON with all the data. However, when I do it from Power BI, I get nothing. I get this string {"d":{"results":[]}} as if there is no data inside, even though there is.
I have also tried using the OData connector, but I only get the column headers with no rows of data.

Could anyone help me with this please?
It's driving me crazy!

thanks guys

Please show how you include the authentication, RelativePath and Query in the Web.Contents call

Thanks, it was an authentication issue, I don't know why but PowerBi was making some mess, I resetted all the credentials and it worked, thanks
