Use function outcome a variable/parameter

Hi All,

Hope you can help me with the following. For a report I'm fetching data from different endpoints. Each requires me to authenticate use a token. I'm created a function to get the token from an endpoint which works. But i want to use the token as a parameter in the other queries to get the data (using something like "Headers=[Authorization="Bearer "&{token parameter}]] in the query).

I there a way to automatically use the function to populate the parameter? Or is there an other way to work with tokens in the requests?

Try that last option.

 

Keep in mind that there is a very fine line between Partitions and Expressions. You could equally have a query that acquires the token and stuffs it in a single column single row table. Then reference that value by row {0} and column name.  Same effect as a Parameter.
