Connect to Bamboo's REST API- Error"Web API key can only be specified when API key name is provided"
Hello, I'm relatively new to PowerBI, and am trying to connect to Bamboo's Open API (REST API). My workflow is going through PowerBI's "New Source" --> "web" --> in "basic" I enter Bamboo's ...
I had the same issue initially but made it work by following these steps:
Using BASIC Authentification works!
Username - enter your [API Key]
Password - enter "x"
The url needs to be the full url that worked in your browser call; just remove the [API Key]:x@ from before api.bamboohr.com/api/...
So if original call used in web browser was:
https://[API Key]:[email protected]/api/gateway.php/[Company Name]/v1/employees/all/tables/jobInfo/
The url to enter in powerbi is:
https://api.bamboohr.com/api/gateway.php/[Company Name]/v1/employees/all/tables/jobInfo/
