    For anyone who may have this issue in the future, after more searching I have found a solution.

     

    In VBA the ResponseText is giving the compressed information.

     

    When I remove the line:

    .setRequestHeader "Accept-Encoding", "gzip, deflate"

     

    The response is then displayed correctly.

Hi AnthRamDF,

 

Thanks for reaching out, There are a couple of reasons that can cause the error OAuthTokenIsInvalid.

 

I recommend having a look at the support articles below. If this does not resolve the error can you please create a support request with us HERE, And we can have a more in-depth look into what is causing this.

Hi Hannah_B ,

 

Thank you for your reply.

 

The OAuthTokenIsInvalid is not the problem I am having. I put that in to illustrate I am receiving clear messages when an error is thrown.

 

My issue is when I try to retreive data eg, company list , with the correct token, I receive garbage returned eg:

?  ?`I?%&/m?J?t??`$?@????G#)?*??Ve]f@????????N'?\fdl??!????~|?"???~t6?t?O??Ov?????:??G#}?????YV??"K? ....Shortened.
