Invalid data credentials for web data source

[tainks]

Hi, 

I have been connecting to Unleashed by calling the API at Desktop. And it works fine.

However, after publishing it and  trying to refresh it in  Service, it says "Your data source can't be refreshed because the credentials are invalid. Please update your credentials and try again."

I've seen other threads saying that Service doesn't support refresh for API Urls that require an API key, is there workaround this?

How you have connected to the unleashed API? I'm trying to the same but it's not working for me. I would really appreciate it.
