API connector cant return special characters

Hello!
I've made a custom connector that returns API calls from our ERP system. But it fails to return special characters like "Š, Č, Ū" etc.  which are comonly used in our language. When you call the API from like a browser or postman, it shows all the data correctly which makes me believe this issue is a connector based one instead of the call itself. 
This is from the connector while testing the call

This is from when i call the API in a browser or any other place

    Interesting thing was that I fixed this issue by adding a policie that forces the change on the header, UFT-8 didn't work, but us-ascii somehow did the job. But now I'm stuck with the issue of having correct data in the test for custom connector, but worng data when displayed in powerapps which is my new issue that I dont know how to tackle.
