Hi,

 

I’m new to creating the custom zaps and using the zapier webhooks.  Every combination I have put into the zap to GET the data isn’t authenticating.  I just need a little direction from you to steer me where I’m going wrong in my headers.  See below of my zap and an example of the API documentation.  I have put the correct username and keys into the zap.  The image below is the example.  Thank you.
