I am attempting to query my new CosmosDB collection through API management. Once proved out, this will be a front-end for user access to logged data. For that reason, I have the data partitioned by subscription ID. In Azure Portal for the Logs collection of my WebApi DB I see partition key as /api_subscription_key. I have the data going in from API Mgt. -> Event Hub -> Stream Analytics -> Cosmos.
Using the query explorer in Azure portal, I can try a query like:
SELECT * FROM c WHERE c.api_subscription_key = '573a1c65bceb52192c140131'
this brings back expected documents I have been successfully writing to CosmosDB for many days

My CosmosDB instance is plexconnectcosmos. Thru API management and its policies I am POSTing to
https://plexconnectcosmos.documents.azure.com/dbs/WebApi/colls/Logs/docs
with these headers (many vestigial and hopefully having no effect):

"message": "The input authorization token can't serve the request. Please check that the expected payload is built as per the protocol, and check the key being used.

}
These seems to give me two problems to solve. In the first place how do I go about troubleshooting this partition? It seems to be from my analysis, it is a valid partition, validating by queries in the portal and the headers "x-ms-documentdb-partitionkey" and "x-ms-partition-key". (I have seen both header names in MS documentation, so I am covering my bases with both.)
The "The input authorization token can't serve the request." message suggests to me something variably wrong in my query. I suspect maybe the data value? My policy is little different from one I use for Azure Table Storage REST API and I never have that problem. I am using my read-only primary key taken from Azure portal and stored in API Management's Named Values:

Some thins I wonder: Could the returned ActivityId help me get any more details, some how? Even without it, is there some logging in Azure I haven't found that would reveal more details.
If anything is obviously wrong here that I am doing, please someone let me know.
I got it running with some minor adjustments.
