Not able to connect to AKS API from power platform

Posted on by JHUser

I'm trying to connect to AKS API endpoint from power platform. API is subscribed using API key & requires authorization using Bearer token. I'm able to successfully make the call when I hardcode the value of bearer token in custom connector however since token expires in few minutes I need to pass it dynamically. I tried Oauth 2.0 option but that gets disabled when I check use on premise gateway option. I need to access the API using on premise gateway so not sure how I can achieve this. Please let me know if anyone has any solution on this. Thanks!!

For a Power Platform architecture, the cleanest and most supportable solution is:

Power Platform ↓ Custom Connector ↓ Azure API Management ↓ AKS API

Let APIM handle token acquisition and refresh, while Power Platform uses a simpler authentication method (API key, OAuth, or managed identity).

This avoids the Custom Connector + Gateway OAuth limitation and provides a scalable enterprise pattern.
