Channel Advisor API Connection with auth key creation
Great! Cheers!
The response is in Json format, so you just need to add a step at the end of the custom function to extract access_token value. Don't forget to add a comma at the end of previous response step.
..................... response = Json.Document(Web.Contents(.......................)), access_token = response[access_token] in access_tokenJing
Thank you for responding. If I make that change, I get this error:
DataSource.Error: The remote name could not be resolved: 'search_url'
Details:
search_url
Replace search_url in the query with your url: https://api.channeladvisor.com/oauth2/token
That produces the "error | invalid client" response.
I really only want order information at this point. When I tried it with https://api.channeladvisor.com/v1/orders as the URL, I got a different error:
Expression.Error: The 'Authorization' header is only supported when connecting anonymously. These headers can be used with all authentication types: Accept, Accept-Charset, Accept-Encoding, Accept-Language, Cache-Control, Content-Type, If-Modified-Since, Prefer, Range, RefererWhat is in the documentation from the API? Did you try to connect with for example Postman (https://www.postman.com/)? Did you get a succesvol connection?
If your not familiar with Postman:Postman is an API platform for building and using APIs. Postman simplifies each step of the API lifecycle and streamlines collaboration so you can create better APIs—faster.
