Help with API (Using Postman)

Calibrick

Hi folks! NOT a programmer/engineer here, but do have some experience at least looking at various languages and interpreting them.

I've downloaded and installed Postman and am attempting to do a simple GET of my order list. It keeps failing (403 errors, which I believe means it is not reading my key properly, based on my research).

This should be simple:
1. URL: https://api.brickowl.com/v1/order/list
2. KEY: mykeyheregeneratedonBrickOwl
3. list_type: store

In Postman, setting up the KEY and list_type as two parameters, the complete URL (Postman adds the parameters to the URL) looks like: https://api.brickowl.com/v1/order/list?KEY=MYKEYSHOWSHERE&list_type=store

I have set it to no authentication, though I've also tried basic (adding my BO username/password) in case that was the issue. It appears that Postman is also properly adding its own tokens to collect the data, so I'm at a loss.

Any ideas? (or can someone recommend a better free tool)? I just want to access the raw data... :-) I read on the forum that you should be able to just paste the URL into a browser (though the result would be messy to read), but I get the same error in that method also.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions, folks!!!

R,

The problem may be that the parameter you have provided is "KEY" as opposed to "key", it appears that is case sensitive

Oh wow it's case sensitive? I will DEF give that a shot - thanks Lawrence!!! You are all things that are awesome, as usual (you spoil us terribly on here :D).

By the way, this worked. :-)
