Hi community,
I’m trying to hit an OCR API using Al code, and while it works fine in Postman, it's throwing an error in Al. The OCR API team confirmed everything is fine on their end, suggesting an issue with my Al code.
I’ve attached screenshots of both Postman screenshots and the Al code for reference. Could anyone help identify what might be wrong?
