Hallo All
So I found this Mcode to connect to the twitter api;
let
// Concatenates the Consumer Key & Consumer Secret and converts to base64
authKey = "Basic " & Binary.ToText(Text.ToBinary(#"API Key" & ":" & #"API Secret"),0),
// Uses the Twitter POST oauth2/token method to obtain a bearer token
GetJson = Web.Contents(url,
[
Headers = [#"Authorization"=authKey,
#"Content-Type"="application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8"],
Content = Text.ToBinary("grant_type=client_credentials")
]
),
FormatAsJson = Json.Document(GetJson),
// Gets token from the Json response
AccessToken = FormatAsJson[access_token],
AccessTokenHeader = "bearer " & AccessToken,
// Uses the Twitter GET search/tweets method using the bearer token from the previous POST oauth2/token method
GetJsonQuery = Web.Contents("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?q=Analytics&count=100",
[
Headers = [#"Authorization"=AccessTokenHeader]
]
),
FormatAsJsonQuery = Json.Document(GetJsonQuery)
in
#"FormatAsJsonQuery"
This gives me the Please rebuild this datacombination error. I know what the error is, I am just not sure how to break up this query to not call outside sources with with internal queries. I was able to call the token serperately like this;
let
// Concatenates the Consumer Key & Consumer Secret and converts to base64
authKey = "Basic " & Binary.ToText(Text.ToBinary(#"API Key" & ":" & #"API Secret"),0),
// Uses the Twitter POST oauth2/token method to obtain a bearer token
GetJson = Web.Contents(url,
[
Headers = [#"Authorization"=authKey,
#"Content-Type"="application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8"],
Content = Text.ToBinary("grant_type=client_credentials")
]
),
FormatAsJson = Json.Document(GetJson),
// Gets token from the Json response
AccessToken = FormatAsJson[access_token],
AccessTokenHeader = "bearer " & AccessToken,
// Uses the Twitter GET search/tweets method using the bearer token from the previous POST oauth2/token method
in
#"AccessTokenHeader"
I am not sure how to call the json query seperately?
PS: The api key and api secret are setup as parameters
