We are planning to use data factory to fetch data from an API . The API provider has implemented a Client Credentials apporach where we will have to first call an API with a client secret and Client password to obtain a token . The obtained token will be used subsequently used with other Api calls to get data.
Our challenge here is that when we try to call the API to get the tokens , the web activity returns a 2108 error and it turns out the issue is due to the fact that server side validation certification fails and we are unable to figure out how to the disable server side validation in the web api.
Please note that the same call works in Postman when the server side validation is disabled.
Could you guide us how we can overcome this problem , is using webapi justified or is there any other activity that is more apt for this and means to use the same 
Note that we have set the header to the correct Content type and have included the granttype , client_id and client_secret values without quotes in the body
