Create a Post request with application/x-www-form-urlencoded - Errro Method


Hi guys, how are you?!
I'm trying to make a post request with x-www-form-urlencoded, and I've already searched in some forum posts and managed to get to the step and inform the return of the request, but it says that it is necessary to use the POST method. Could you help me with this question.

Here's my unsuccessful attempt to fetch the data..

let
url = "xxxxx.xxxxxxxx.com.br/API/index.php",
header=[#"Content-Type" = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"],
postData = [
token1 = "xxxxxxxxxxxxx",
token2 = "xxxxxxxxxxxxx",
action = "read",
scope = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
],
response = Json.Document(
Web.Contents(
url,
   [
     Headers = header,
     Content = Text.ToBinary(Uri.BuildQueryString(postData))
   ]
     )
)
in
response

Hi @hugo_barbara 

 

I think this is a Post request exactly. Are you able to use some API Test Tool like Postman to test the request using the same data? Will it return the same message?

Hello,
When making the request following the parameters passed in postman, it returns the data I need as answers.

Hi @hugo_barbara 

 

Is it possible to capture the screenshots of request settings in Postman and remove sensitive data, after that paste the screenshots here? I need to check the M code according to that.

Follows the print of the same request made via postman.
