I’m trying to build the Tableau desktop oauth web data connector 3.0 to use Tableau to pull data from the LeanIX graphql API however I am consistently receiving a 405 error even though I am using the POST method. Has anyone attempted to do this before?

    Hello Shama,

    Thank you for bringing this question to the community.

    To better assist you, could you share a screenshot of the error message you’re encountering? This would help us pinpoint the issue more precisely.

    In addition, you mentioned trying to pull data while using the POST method. Could there perhaps be a mismatch? A 405 error typically indicates that the endpoint is recognized, but the HTTP method being used (GET, POST, etc.) is not supported for that specific endpoint.

    If you’d prefer not to share details here, I would recommend reaching out to our dedicated technical support team via SAP for Me. They have the expertise to dive deeper and assist you in resolving this effectively.

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

    Best regards,

    S

    Hi Stephan, 

    Please see the screenshot of the error below. 

    our API documentation indicates the only accepted method is ‘POST’ which is what’s confusing. In addition Google’s DevTools show that despite the web data connector including POST as the method the Request Method is still GET. Does the capability for a web data connector to connect to the LeanIX graphql API not exist? Im not sure how the POST call is turning into a GET request.
