Hi,

I am trying to make a call to WhisperAPI. I have tried it in Postman and it works but I have tried a variety of options after reading this thread -

[https://community.thunkable.com/t/trouble-using-whisperapi/2241275/29](https://community.thunkable.com/t/trouble-using-whisperapi/2241275/29)

but no dice.

I tried placing the Cloudinary URL in quotes as well.

Unfortunately, I am unable to post the errors that I am getting as there seems to be an issue with Device Preview at the moment, but would appreciate any assistance in the meantime.

Thanks  
Steve

Hello @steve_synopsis  
Could you please check this?

> Hello @vishruth-ram Thank you for sharing more information The API you are trying to use accepts path but on Thunkable you can send files only as URLs. You will need to use a [backend service such as Xano](https://blog.thunkable.com/backend-service-no-code-app-xano) that will: receive the URL convert it to a file send it as a path on your API. Another user followed the same process to solve his issue here: [Getting Error while Sending API request in Thunkable - #15 by whoocoder](https://community.thunkable.com/t/getting-error-while-sending-api-request-in-thunkable/2631300/15)
