Can run GET, but having trouble with POST when sending API from Power Query Online (dataflow)
I am having trouble getting Power Query online to use the search API in Hubspot, and I cannot look at the api request it generates to debug. When I try and do a POST for SEARCH in their API, I get this error:
DataSource.Error: Web.Contents failed to get contents from 'https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/tickets/search' (415): Unsupported Media TypeDetailsReason = DataSource.Error
DataSourceKind = Web
DataSourcePath = https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/tickets/search
Url = https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/tickets/search
(I think the only difference between GET and POST in Power Query is whether it has Content = "" or not?)
My only two guesses are either the body json has a formatting error, or Power BI doesn't support POST.
This works in Postman:
curl --location 'https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/tickets/search' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer ####' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"filterGroups": [
{
"filters": [
{
"propertyName": "hs_pipeline_stage",
"operator": "EQ",
"value": "95185931"
}
]
}
]
}'
This works in power BI ( the GET version without search )
let
Source = Table.FromRecords(Json.Document(Web.Contents(
"https://api.hubapi.com",
[
RelativePath="crm/v3/objects/tickets",
Headers = [
Authorization = "Bearer ####",
#"Conent-Type"="application/json"
]
]
))[results])
in
Source
But this does not work in Power BI (which I think is identical to the postman version?):
let
filter = Json.FromValue(
[
filterGroups = {
[
filters = {
[
propertyName = "hs_pipeline_stage",
operator = "EQ",
value = "95185931"
]
}
]
}
]
),
Source = Table.FromRecords(Json.Document(Web.Contents(
"https://api.hubapi.com",
[
RelativePath="crm/v3/objects/tickets/search",
Headers = [
Authorization = "Bearer ####",
#"Conent-Type"="application/json"
],
Content = filter
]
))[results])
in
Source

Hi s1 ,
Please try to modify the codes.
powerquery let filter = Json.FromValue( [ filterGroups = { [ filters = { [ propertyName = "hs_pipeline_stage", operator = "EQ", value = "95185931" ] ] ] } ] ), Source = Table.FromRecords(Json.Document(Web.Contents( "https://api.hubapi.com", [ RelativePath="crm/v3/objects/tickets/search", Headers = [ Authorization = "Bearer ####", #"Content-Type"="application/json" ], Content = filter ] ))[results]) in SourceWeb.Contents - PowerQuery M | Microsoft Learn
Please try the above modifications and see if that resolves your issue. If the problem persists, could you provide more details about the error message?

Thank you! Yes, you are right, it was a typo with Content.
