API Request – is the endpoint to which users or applications send requests for your API.
Service Request – is the URL at which your back-end service receives requests.

Before, I get into detailed solution, let me tell you bit more about problem. At very initial stage when I tried creating an API which is in-turn calling an HTTPS service request, it was failing while invoking that service from rest POSTMAN tool and was getting “Internal Server error” as per below snap.
