Hello Gliders!!! I am using a button whose action is CALL API. The instruction on the receiver side is “In the body of the request, it should be of type “x-www-form-urlencoded”. Then it gives me 4 keys and key values. I tried configuring this in the CALL API action with no success. Please help.

Can you try using a template column and structuring the API body call as something like:

`key1=value1&key2=value2&key3=value3&key4=value4`

Remember to set Content-Type in header to `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`

Thank you so much Thinh! Upon setting the Content-Type in header, it worked!!! It is the first time I come across the content-type issue. New to me. Thanks!
