Hello @statum

Are you trying to follow the instructions in this article?

If so, please follow the instructions in the comments in the load script (section "Configuration").
Ensure that you have provided the correct URL and added a Query Header called Authorization that contains the value Bearer followed by a blank space and your API key?
Also, ensure that the value you provide in the load script for vu_rest_connection matches the name you gave the REST connection.

Does it need to be edited like that in the load editor or I need to put that in the parameters in the REST Connector section?

Follow these instructions:

Add REST connection
A. Click "Create new connection" and choose the REST connector.
B. Set the URL to https://<tenant>.<region>.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/items, replace <tenant>.<region> to match the environment.
Example: https://tenantname.us.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/items
C. Use the default values for the settings and scroll down to the Additional request parameters section.
D. Under Query Headers, add the name Authorization and set the value to Bearer <paste API key here>.
E. Give the connection a friendly name

Assign the name you provided in step E to vu_rest_connection
Example: SET vu_rest_connection = 'REST for Automation usage with incremental load';
