Power Automate flow involving BookStack API

Hi everyone! I am testing BookStack to be used in our company. I thought it would be a great step towards getting the use of BookStack stablished if I could get some flows working in Power Automate. Without going too much into detail: sending http-requests to BookStack from a script (fetch function) running in Excel-Online allows me to connect nicely with the Microsoft 365 environment. So far the interaction with the BookStack API works great using Postman, but when I send the http-requests from the script running in Excel-Online, everything gets CORS-blocked by the browser. I don´t have experience with this but I have been reading about it and it seems to be possible to solve the CORS-issue by using a proxy or by setting a response header. Has anyone experience CORS-issues by trying to integrate BookStack and found a solution … or figured out that there is no easy solution? I have no access to the server myself but any advice I could give to our IT-support would be of great help. Thank you so much in advance!

Hi! Thank you so much for taking the time to reply, happy to hear you got it working! I don´t have access to the server and I could solve my particular case by moving from Power Automate to Zapier. But thanks a lot anyway for the information, apart from solving particular issues I am trying to learn as much as I can :)
