hi all
I'm having difficulties setting up powerquery to get info from an API.
I use Postman and everything is working just fine.
So from above I'm using the URL from the GET and add it in the URL below and I use the token and add it to the Headers as per below.
I use Anonymous auth.
This gives me the following error
I dont get it. Could you help ?
I specify that in order to receive the token I do use another GET action (GetToken). but having this token this should work fine...
thank you !

Hi @Anonymous
It seems you are using the incorrect header paramter for token. Use Authorization rather than X-API-KEY and add "Bearer " before the token. You could refer to this link: powerbi - Where do I save token in Power BI web connection?
Other reference:
powerbi - How do I retrieve a bearer token from a service in Power BI?
