Can't authenticate using the v1/company/employees REST API

Hello. I'm using Power Query in Power BI Desktop to fetch data. I've already created the code to get a token from$ /v1/auth using the client_id and client_secret and pass that Bearer token to /v1/company/employees but the query breaks from that point and I'm not authorized for some weird reasons. This code worked few weeks back but now doesn't. Everything works smoothly in Postman by the way Anyone here successfully using Power Query to get data from Personio?

Notification via Webhook (or API request)

E-mail is only desired for external communication in our company. Internal communication and the submission of tasks are done via a personal dashboard of an employee in another solution. The goal is to let employees work with as few tools as possible. So we would also like to receive notifications to employees not via email, but via API or webhook. Either as a webhook to an address to be defined, or by request. The message would also only have to contain the information that is already available in the e-mail: 1. e-mail of the recipient, 2. subject 3. copy text 4. call-to-action URL to the personal page 5. if applicable, the name Optional: individual deactivation of the sending of e-mails per user.

Random 403/404 errors when using API through Proxy

Hello there, I'm having trouble with the documents endpoint of the Personio Recruiting API. I'm receiving random and unpredictable 403 and 404 errors; and occasionally it just works. I'm using an Nginx Reverse Proxy to hide the credentials from the general public. Other than that, the setup is pretty basic. The 403 error contains the following message: 'xyz' not a valid key=value pair (missing equal-sign) in Authorization header: 'Bearer xyz'.". But the header is set correctly. This is the configuration of the proxy: location /documents/upload { proxy_pass https://api.personio.de/v1/recruiting/applications/documents; proxy_set_header Authorization "Bearer xyz"; proxy_set_header X-Company-ID 123; proxy_hide_header Strict-Transport-Security; proxy_hide_header Referrer-Policy; proxy_hide_header Content-Security-Policy; } What could be the issue here? Are there general issues with the use of proxies and your API? Thanks in advance.

How to retrieve error messages in English for Applicant API

Hello Personio team! During testing the API for passing applications to Personio I discovered that error messages are returned in German. Example: ``` { "success": false, "error": { "code": 0, "message": "The given data was invalid.", "errors": { "last_name": [ "Bitte geben Sie last name ein, um fortzufahren." ], "email": [ "Bitte geben Sie email ein, um fortzufahren." ] } } } ``` Is there a way to return them in English? I tried: - adding Accept-Language header to "en", "en-US" and "en-US,en" - adding a language parameter to the URL -> https://api.personio.de/recruiting/applicant?language=en None of these work. Can you please help?
