Per @sam’s wonderful guide, I’ve found the proper endpoint for my desired request: https://domain.com/admin/reports/bulk?reports[dau_by_mau][facets][]=prev_period&reports[dau_by_mau][start_date]=2022-07-27&reports[dau_by_mau][end_date]=2022-08-28&reports[dau_by_mau][limit]=50 I found no form-headers to be present, and I assumed there were none needed. This request in Dev Tools results in a JSON response, exactly the one I want/need. I’m trying to make a python get request: url = "https://domain.com/admin/reports/bulk?reports[dau_by_mau][facets][]=prev_period&reports[dau_by_mau][start_date]=2022-07-27&reports[dau_by_mau][end_date]=2022-08-28&reports[dau_by_mau][limit]=50.json" headers = CaseInsensitiveDict() headers["Content-Type"] = "multipart/form-data" headers["Content-Type"] = "application/json" headers["Api-Key"] = SECRET.API headers["Api-Username"] = "system" resp = requests.get(url, headers=headers) print(resp.status_code) print(resp.headers) I do get a 200, but it returns with a 'Content-Type': 'text/html, and not a JSON (which is what I want). And I’m not even sure the text it returns is the text version of desired data. [image]Discourse API Reports Try adding .json to the end of the URL Didn’t help either. So what am I doing wrong?

[image] hiddenseal: So what am I doing wrong? You have a duplicate header: [image] hiddenseal: headers["Content-Type"] = "multipart/form-data" headers["Content-Type"] = "application/json" Content-Type is about what you send, and Accept is about what you want in return. So you’ll need to change this to headers["Content-Type"] = "multipart/form-data" headers["Accept"] = "application/json"

[image] Richard - Communiteq: You have a duplicate header: Sorry, it’s an unrelated relict. I had an issue without the second header. [image] Richard - Communiteq: So you’ll need to change this to This one does work. Thank you!

Sorry, it’s an unrelated relict. I had an issue without the second header.

This one does work. Thank you!
