Exporting data from a public source requiring no authentication

Good evening everyone,

I'm trying to figure out how can I create a flow that exports data from a Shopify boutique public URL. For example, let's use my personal Shopify developer store : https://pfoisy.myshopify.com/collections/all/products.json

With exports always requiring a connexion and connexions always enforcing an authentication mechanism, I'm struggling to export this very public data.

Let me know how would you figure this out 

Regards

  Can you try the following, and put a dummy value for token (i.e. 'apple', 'banana' etc...)?  If authentication is not required by the API, then I imagine sending authentication info in an HTTP header is harmless and will be ignored.  Make sense?

  If for some reason the API complains about an 'Authorization' header being sent, then try changing the header name field below to something like 'Ignore'.
