Hi Jeff B.63,
You can add -v option (verbose) in every curl command and you'll get entire HTTP request in the console output as is. 😉
Jeff B.63 wrote:... I have my AppKey and AppSecret but what is the authorization code and do I need a redirect URI since I want the response to come right back to the HTTP request?
The authorization code is something you should receive from the authorization page where you (or your application user - whoever is) grant permission to access account resources. It can be copied by hand or received automatic using redirect URI - the choice is yours. So, no, it's not mandatory usage of redirect URI. Take a look here how you can perform the same without redirect URI.
Hope this helps.
This is a little outside my wheelhouse but I am giving it a go. This is what I have tried but something is wrong and I am not sure if I am on the right track or not. Some guidance would be appreciated.
Here is the raw input:
{
"method": "GET",
"queries": {
"direct_only": "true",
"path": "/~ Pictures - All/2023/236056 - 459 Jellicoe Cres/"
},
"headers": {
"Authorization": "*sanitized*",
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
}
And here is the raw output:
{
"statusCode": 404,
"headers": {
"Date": "Mon, 24 Apr 2023 20:37:35 GMT",
"Server": "envoy",
"Vary": "Accept-Encoding",

"Transfer-Encoding": "chunked",
"Content-Type": "text/html"
},
Error (404) We can't find the page you're looking for.
}
Jeff B.63, Take a look on documentation! There POST request is always used. 🙋 GET is not for listing. The call parameters have to reside in request body, JSON encoded (as you correctly have specified in a header). Where is this JSON right now? 🧐😉

Jeff B.63 As Здравко noted, your request is not formatted properly. You can find information on how to call the endpoint in the documentation. The API v2 Explorer can also be useful for prototyping these calls; you can click "Show Code" to see how the call would be constructed in a few different clients.
After a long while I am finally getting back to this issue.
I have tried the API v2 Explorer and can get the call to work but when I view the code for HTTP, my logic app has all the same content with the exception of User-Agent which in the Explorer shows as
User-Agent: api-explorer-clientDo I need to insert my own API name in there for the app that I created and has the same API Key?
- Greg-DB
Jeff B.63 Здравко is correct; while the 'User-Agent' value is meant to contain the app's name, it does not impact the functionality of the API call.
If the call is still not working for you, make sure the app is formatting the request correctly. It may help to print out the actual HTTP request, if possible. (If you share that here, be sure to continue to redact the access token though.)
