HTTP GET Request URI

Hi Community,

I'm trying to make an HTTP GET request and have encountered an issue. The request requires the URI to include leading and trailing quotes, like this:

'https://MyDomain.com/api/v2/tickets/[id]'

However, when I add the quotes, the HTTP connector throws an error: "Action HTTP failed." It seems the connector doesn't support leading and trailing quotes. Is there a workaround for this? I've already tried using a compose action and variable, but neither worked.
 
Everything works as expected when testing in Postman so I know the end point is correct and basic auth is ok.
 
Any advice on how I can get around the issue would be great!
 
Many thanks

    HTTP GET Request URI
    Hi ManishSolanki,
     
    Thanks, however, as mentioned in Power Automate if you remove the quotes the HTTP connect returns 404 not found and with the quotes it gives invalid URI.
     
    When testing in Postman with quotes it returns 200 ok. If I remove the quotes in Postman it returns 404 not found.
     
    Based on this it looks like it needs the quotes to find the resources but the HTTP connector does not like the quotes being added. I have tried using compose action and encoding as safe URI but that does not work either. Any further thought would be much appreciated.
