Expression.SyntaxError: Invalid identifier

Hi,

I am trying to pull data from our ERP database via an API. I had tested the API call with Postman and then took the basic authorization key from Postman and inserted it in the query in Power BI. However, the query in Power BI is giving the below error:

Expression.SyntaxError: Invalid identifier

 

The snippet of the error is below.

Highly appreciate it if somebody can help.
