Hi All,

I'd like to get the spotify web api data from the following link thru Excel PowerQuery web connector: Spotify API link

I created a web query with the following code:

Power Query:
let
    Bron = Json.Document(Web.Contents(functionGetNamedRange("SourceURL"), [Headers=[Accept="application/json", #"Content-Type"="application/json", Authorization="Bearer B.PrivateCode[B][I].[/I][/B]q8tw"]])),
    tracks = Bron[tracks],
    items = tracks[items],
    items1 = items{0},
    #"Geconverteerd naar tabel" = Record.ToTable(items1),
    #"Alternatieve rijen zijn verwijderd" = Table.AlternateRows(#"Geconverteerd naar tabel",0,3,14),
    #"Alternatieve rijen zijn verwijderd1" = Table.AlternateRows(#"Alternatieve rijen zijn verwijderd",3,2,9)
in
    #"Alternatieve rijen zijn verwijderd1"

My funcitonGetNamedRange Query code:
Power Query:
let GetNamedRange=(NamedRange) =>
 
let
    name = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name=NamedRange]}[Content],
    value = name{0}[Column1]
in
    value

in GetNamedRange

When I enter this data thru the PowerQuery web connector, it works perfectly fine. When I close the workbook and re-open it: the Query cannot refresh anymore. I'm getting the following error:
Authorization Error: The credentials for the source Web invalid. Update the credentials through a refresh operation or in the Data Source Settings dialog box to continue. (Source at https://api.spotify.com/v1/search.)
Even when I'm refreshing the Authorization token, it still doens't work.

Does somebody have a solution?

Thank you in advance for your help.
