Date as Request Header in API

[this_is_pk]

Hello all,

I am new to PBI and looking for some help here.

I am using a GET method to pull the data through API. According to the API documentation a dynamic bearer token is requried for every api call. I was able to fetch the token and when i was able to use it in the Request Headers for API URL. However according to the API documentation a Date Header is required which is UTC timezone to be sent along with Authorization token as Request Headers. Below is the code that i am using. 

Source = Value.Metadata(
Web.Contents(BaseURL,

[
Headers=[Authorization = Bearertoken, Date = TodaysDate
]
)),

However when i use Date in the Request Header the PBI is throwing an error 

Expression.Error: The 'Date' header must be modified using the appropriate property or method.
Parameter name: name
Details:
Sun, 05 May 2024 07:12:37 GMT

According the API Documentation the Header name should exactly match to the text whcih is "Date". I tried multiple options but nothing worked out. I also tried in Postman and when i use Date as Header it is working fine and when i change the Date name to any other name such as "Dates" (adding "s" at the end) even in postman i see 401 unauthorized error. I am not sure how to handle this.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Can you show the header for the successful Postman request?  Maybe the date format is expected to be in ISO-8601.

It is not the date format that is causing the issue. Its the header (such as column header) . 

For example Date = Sun, 05 May 2024 02:55:55 GMT - this is the format mentioned in API documentation. 

The format for date i have is correct but when i use the name "Date" the M query is returning errors. 

Error that i am getting is below

Try without the space.  I don't think that is the right date format, btw.

Power BI Access this date format without any issue. Please refer to this link below

Also according to the API Documentation this is what i have

Its the name of the Header that is causing the issue. You cant directly just write "Date" in M Query. But according the API documentation this is what it should be. Looking for some workaround here
