I don’t know anything about oauth2, rest services, etc. I’m just learning as I go! I’m sure I have more that 1 issue in my HTTP node parameters. Here’s a screenshot of the endpoint (I tried adding the link here but it didnt work, your probably have to have an account setup to see it)
I tried changing “Specify Query Parameters” from “Using Fields” to “Using JSON” and copied the JSON from the FedEx link above and that didn’t work either.
Describe the problem/error/question
I’m trying to connect to the FedEx API to track packages.
What is the error message (if any)?
“We do not support the content type in your request. Please modify the format and try again.”
(I don’t know what content type is or what it means)
Please share your workflow
I just have a Credential (see screenshot) and an HTTP request node (below screenshot).
