I already tried to set authentication to oauth2.0 and value “waarde” (name of variable) but that does not work and the value keeps being emptied.

@HensRansen

Go to postman fill the api and related details and tun and check there…that si better for debugging api…once running use curl…

Postman.com is the site

So here we are again. With help from friends, the internet and udemy, I’ve created a working postman collection. Hooray!

See the attachment for the postman_collection.

But now the next step?
Can you help me convert the code into UiPath code?

My goal is to connect to spotify api. Is it necessary to keep using postman in the UiPath code?

Spotify Playlist Generator.postman_collection.json (13.9 KB)

Thanks in advance!

@HensRansen

Now in postman you can copy the curl and import it using http request activity…all the data for a call will be imported into right fields

Cheers

Thank you @Anil_G!! It was quite a puzzle but in the end, I’m able to create and edit playlists in spotify.

I am wondering: now UiPath robot makes a call to a postman redirect_uri.

Is it also possible to make a own redirect_uri?
