    Hi Lakshmi Niharika Paladugu,

    Thank you for posting query in Microsoft Q&A Platform.

    From error message it seems, request is not reached to server at all. It may be due to network issues or DNS failures or sending request incorrectly.

    Please consider checking below points.

    • Kindly cross check your request details in comparison with postman, if anything missing in web activity. Make sure, your request is correct.
    • Is your API has some network limitations? Will it allow request only in some internal network only? If yes, then you need to consider installing selfhosted IR in that network and then use that to make API call from web activity.

    Hope this helps. If not, please share more details about your API and request details of postman and web activity to understand better and help. Thank you.
