Dynamically Input API Key in Download Tool

Does anyone know of a good way to see the HTTP request call from the download tool? I am trying to work with an API (from data.world) where I can query it successfully using my API Key, but when I try to make it dynamic, I keep on getting 401 Unauthorized Errors. Is it recommend to use a batch script with curl instead in this case, as I do have to prefix my API key with  I have attached my workflow. Thanks.

Think you were very close to making it work,

 

Looked like the only issue was you were not calling the API Key field authorization.

 

I tweaked it and it appeared to work.

 

I would recommend fiddler (http://www.telerik.com/fiddler) if you want to monitor the download tool
