Hey I am having issues. This is the error I am getting. Below is my current query. I need help!
Hi @jbrown184 ,
Could you please tell us that if your issue has been solved? I reviewed this post and I think the workaround from danextian is great.
If you still have doubts, feel free to ask here.

HI! I did what you said. I made a paramater. When I go back to powerbi.com it still says "
Hi @jbrown184
That is expected as you are using a url string from concatenating using different text strings. Use relative property of web.contents. Examples:
let
BaseUrl = "https://www.baseurl.com",
PageSize = 500,
Page = [page column],
RelativePath = Text.Combine({"/orders?pageSize=", Text.From(PageSize), "&page=", Text.From(Page)}),
AuthorizationKey = "Basic " & "actual key", --key could be parameterized
Response = Web.Contents(BaseUrl,
[
RelativePath = RelativePath,
Headers = [Authorization = AuthorizationKey]
]
),
Data = Json.Document(Response)
in
Data
let
PageSize = 500,
Page = [page column],
BaseUrl = "https://www.baseurl.com",
AuthorizationKey = "Basic yourkey=", // --or use a parameter
Response = Web.Contents(
BaseUrl,
[
RelativePath = "orders",
Query = [pageSize = Text.From(PageSize), page = Text.From(Page)],
Headers = [Authorization = AuthorizationKey]
]
),
Data = Json.Document(Response)
in
Data
Text.From on PageSize and Page is not needed if both are texts.

Hi @jbrown184
Have you already deleted the queries that initially caused the error? Please note that a presence of even just a single query that uses concatenated url strings will keep the error.
you didn't completely follow @danextian 's advice. Please follow the documentation. Use RelativePath and Query parameters. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powerquery-m/web-contents#example-1
