Hello,
I am having an issue with my API.
I am attempting to connect the Sales Tracking software Seismic to PowerBI via an API. I have gotten the API link (https://api.seismic.com/reporting/v2/userActivity) (documentation here: https://developer.seismic.com/seismicsoftware/reference/reporting-useractivityget) and the API key (documentation here: https://developer.seismic.com/seismicsoftware/docs/authentication-1 ). However, when I try to use these in the "Access Web Content" integration I receive the following error:
I have tried using the key in the Basic tab's Username field but no luck with those attempts. I have additionally tried to add the work "Bearer" infront of the key to see if that would work as it is required in access through other softweare (python, Ruby etc) with no success.
Any help is appreciated.
Hi @AnotherBIUser ,
instead of Bearer, you need to use "Authorization" and then add "Bearer " in front of the token like described in the API docs here:

Hi @AnotherBIUser ,
instead of using the "Web Api" authentication method, you have to use "Anonymus" and pass the access token in the headers in instead.

Got the headers and added the key there, but I still cannot access Seismic. Am I doing something wrong?
