    I have finally managed to solve the problem witrh a little bit of help from blopez11 which he posted here

     

    let
vBaseUrl = "https://interact.leadforensics.com",
vPath = "WebApi_v2/Visit/GetAllVisits?datefrom=01-01-2020 00:00:00&dateto=31-12-2030 23:59:59&pagesize=999999&pageno=1",
vHeaders = [#"Authorization-Token"="THIS IS WHERE I PUT THE AUTH TOKEN", #"ClientID"="THIS IS WHERE I PUT THE ID"],
Source = Web.Contents ( vBaseUrl, [RelativePath=vPath, Headers=vHeaders] ),
Json = Json.Document ( Source ), SiteVisitList = Json[SiteVisitList],
#"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(SiteVisitList, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
in
#"Converted to Table"

    Thanks. Do you mean I should add the api key (which is the same as authorization token) like this:

    " Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("https://interact.leadforensics.com/WebApi_v2/Visit/GetAllVisits?datefrom=01-01-2020 00:00:00&dateto=31-12-2030 23:59:59&pagesize=999999&pageno=1", [Headers=[#"Authorization-Token"="XXXXXXXXXXXX", #"ClientID"="XXXXX", #"x-api-key"="XXXXXXXXXXXX"]])),"
    ?


    Or add the "api key's name" (which I don't know) ?
