Download API data with Basic Auth

Hello community, I’m a new Alteryx user and I’m trying to do something that you will probably find very simple, but I have been reading the forums for 3 days and still can’t find a solution. 

I have an API that I need to download data from. I tried several ways to do this, but I keep getting errors. The API works fine on postman I attach screenshot on how I make it work there. 

 Anyone can help me to make a workflow that downloads that?

 Thanks!!!

Hi there @Nacho_669 

 

I'd be glad to try and help out! It would be helpful to know what you've already tried though using Alteryx Designer. 

 

 

Would you be willing to post a workflow you've created to attempt this? 

 

Thanks!

It looks like this may be a proxy issue, but that is out of my wheelhouse.
