Issue Connecting to API

[Hjardine]

Hi,

I'm struggling to figure out why I'm not able to connect to this API: https://api.collegefootballdata.com/api/docs/?url=/api-docs.json#/recruiting/getRecruitingPlayers

The request URL is:

https://api.collegefootballdata.com/recruiting/players?year=2019&classification=HighSchool

I've added "?year=2019" to the end of the request URL, which I put into the download tool:

https://api.collegefootballdata.com/recruiting/players?classification=HighSchool?year=2019 

However, the DownloadData column is giving me this result:

{"error":"A year or team filter must be specified."}

I don't understand because I've included which year I would like, is this not the way to go about this? I'm a beginner with APIs so I might be doing this wrong. I've attached my workflow to this. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

HI @Hjardine, I was able to get that query working - although it's not documented, I changed your [New URL] formula - swap out the ? for an &...

After your download tool, place a json parse, and you should see your records returned.

Thank you!
