Hello, I am having trouble in scheduling refresh to the web api source which is dynamically generated in powerquery with auth0 authentication. I tried few of the online solution recomended by MS blogs and Chris Webb blog to applying "RelativePath" but unable to solve it. Could I get some help on this please. Below is the query which works fine when refrehed from desktop but not in powerbi service.
let

Hi @praveenlc - it difficult to validate the following but I think it relates to the following line in the above:
data_url = "https://api.websitename.com/im1/run/details?start_date=" & Start_Date_Parameter & "T12:00:20Z&end_date=" & End_Date_Parameter & "T12:00:20Z",
The concatenation of the URL string including the "?start_date" may not work as Chris describes in his blog. This component needs to be moved in the "Relative Path". i.e. not included in the main URL. This will allow Power BI to check the credentials based on the main url instead of the dynamic url that includes dates.
Thanks! finally got it working after continuous try
data_url = "https://api.websitename.io/im1/run/details",
data_body = "{

Well done @praveenlc - it does make sense that the "im1/run/details" is still included in the main URL. Only the parts after the ?.
Hi @Daryl-Lynch-Bzy , thank you for the quick response.
I tried the following and few other "RelativePath" wraping on "Web.Contents(" and no luck, (Expression.Error: 3 arguments were passed to a function which expects between 1 and 2. Details: Pattern= Arguments=[List])
data_url = "https://api.websitename.io",
data_body = "{
""authorization"": """& AccessTokenHeader & """,
""content-type"": ""application/json"",
""CATEGORY-ID"":""" & Category_Parameter & """
}",
GetGroups = Json.Document(
Web.Contents(
data_url, [
RelativePath="im1/run/details",
Query=[start_date = "Start_Date_Parameter" & "T12:00:20Z"
,end_date = "End_Date_Parameter" & "T12:00:20Z"]
],
[
Headers = Json.Document(data_body)
]
)
),
