Create an new connection (Rest) with an Bearer Key

Hello together,

 

i have an API connect with an Baerer Key.

How can i define a new data connection with an Baerer Key. There is no possibility to use a Baerer Key at the form "Create new Connection(REST)"

This ist the result of a test without authentification.

Hi! Step 2 of this tutorial shows how to create a REST connection with bearer key: https://www.vizmind.eu/tracking-new-users-in-saas-editions-of-qlik-sense/

Another option would be to insert the key as part of the URL. Then I suggest that you check the documentation of the API that you are using. It should be explained there.

Hi Ivan,  perfect solution!! It Works. 

As an additional information: It not important what kind of Authentification Schema you use. 

Because of the Token in the Header  evrey setting works.

Hi @Ivan_Bozov 

Thanks for the article. How de we pass the token from the response of another API request. We are integrating with a third party API and we need generate the token in one request and pass it as bearer in actual request
