Flow Designer with Data Source question

Hello,

I have a need to run two REST API call. One for getting the Token and second one using that token for getting the Data.

While creating Action record from Data source, I am not able to see adding (+ sign ) in Flow Designer to add second REST API call. 

One option I am seeing as creating Input variable via script  and store the token in variable prior to making second REST call, but not sure how to. 

Can you please help how can I achieve this?

Thanks for the image updates.

Create a new flow action with your rest step that retrieves the token.  The token value will be an output from the action.  Save/Publish the action, then copy the code snippet for that action:

find_real_file.png

You can then use that code snippet in the script step of the Data Source Request:

find_real_file.png

Your images are not displaying for me, however, what you are describing sounds correct> first API call to get token > pass token to second api call.
