The API I'm using can request a download of a file from the system where the URL needs to be adjusted to get to the right file.
Is there a way to make a GET request like this in Powerapps where the URL itself has variables?
Via Postman:
Hi @Anonymous ,
Do you want to set URL with variables in GET request?
I'm afraid it's not supported to use variable in URL currently when creating costom connector in PowerApps.
As far as I am aware variables can only be used for connection related settings.
I suggest you express your views about using variable in URL when creating custom connector on PowerApps Ideas Forum. Your precious feedback will be very helpful for our work.

Here are two similar issues for your reference:

Best regards,
Is there a way to achieve something similar using a Flow?
Something like below? I'm just not sure what settings to use to pass the file back to PowerApps or recieve the file in response?
