See, you have the keys inserted. This is why it works for you.

It will not work for me not for @tatiang because we do not have the authorization tokens and therefore we will not be of much help to you in getting the PDF file you want.

@muneer, I had the project @funhall created with the secure tokens embedded in the API component. But I still couldn’t get it to work. I’m pretty sure the authentication isn’t correct in Thunkable but I don’t know why.

Thank you @funhall,  
Thank you @tatiang,

It is already half an hour after midnight in my side of the world and will look into the project tomorrow.

It is worthwhile for @funhall to check the secret token between Pastman and Thunkable. It is already working in Postman so it should have the correct tokens.
