The credentials provided for the Web source are invalid (API Key connection)
Hello everyone!
I have a report and one of the data sources is a CSV string with an API key connection. Everything runs fine on PBI Desktop, but on Service the refresh keeps giving me error messages. I have looked at all related posts but any give me a clear idea of what to do in my case.
The source comes from:
let
Source = Csv.Document(Web.Contents("https://eco.helmconnect.com/api/v1/jobs/reports/tables/csvlink?configId=255324e3-60b1-11ea-8255-f5a3932b4801&timezone=America%2FSao_Paulo
", [ApiKeyName= "apikey"]),[Delimiter=",", Encoding=65001, QuoteStyle=QuoteStyle.Csv]),
#"Promoted Headers" = Table.PromoteHeaders(Source)
in
#"Promoted Headers"
I use 3 different CSV strings as above that I merge in one table in PBI.
let
Fonte = Table.Combine({#"Tasks year to date", #"Tasks 2020", #"Tasks 2019"}),
Updating and getting data in Desktop is working well.
The problem is when refreshing on Service:
Anyone can give me guidance on what I am doing wrong? I'm such new in Power BI Service.

you specify
[ApiKeyName= "apikey"]but apikey is not part of your URL. What's the purpose of configid?
Hi IgorCanabarro ,
Accoridng to the error message, it seems that you missed some Authentials like this:
Authorization-Token"="THIS IS WHERE I PUT THE AUTH TOKEN"And I used your code to add a new query ,but a error below appeared...
I have researched on this, and found a workaround, hope it could help you a little:
"In the Access web content dialog, select Basic, enter your app's API key as the Username, and press Connect"
