Rest - Connection JSON

[kmashwini]

Hi All,

Below is the JSON we are using for connection JSON for Rest Connector. We are using basic authentication. We checked in postman it works fine. Please let me know what the issue in below JSON is. In logs getting 400 . In pending task error for create account is "headers":null,"message":{"Message":"A valid session is required for API access.","StackTrace":null},"statusCode":400,"description":null,"status":"Failed"}}.

Connection JSON:

{
"authentications":{
"acctAuth":{
"authType":"Basic",
"url":"https://xxxxxxx/Login",
"httpMethod":"POST",
"httpParams":{

},
"httpHeaders":{

},
"httpContentType":"application/json",
"properties":{
"userName":"xx",
"password":"xxx"
},
"authError":[
"InvalidAuthenticationToken",
"Couldn’t aunthenticate you",
"AuthenticationFailed"
],
"errorPath":"error",
"retryFailureStatusCode":[
401
],
"maxRefreshTryCount":5,
"tokenType":"Basic",
"accessToken":"Basic abcd"
}
}
}

In Postman we give below json

In Body / JSON

{

    "username": "xxxx",

    "password": "xx"

}

---------------------

Headers

[Saathvik]

@kmashwini : in Postman call what is the Authorization you are sending in Header?

Try below JSON

{
    "authentications": {
        "acctAuth": {
            "authType": "Basic",
            "url": "https://xxxxxxx/Login",
            "httpMethod": "POST",
            "httpParams": {
                "userName": "xxxxxx",
                "password": "xxxxx"
            },
            "httpHeaders": {
                "Authorization": "Basic xxxxx",
                "contentType": "application/json"
            },
            "httpContentType": "application/json",
            "authError": [
                "InvalidAuthenticationToken",
                "Couldn’t aunthenticate you",
                "AuthenticationFailed"
            ],
            "errorPath": "error",
            "retryFailureStatusCode": [
                401
            ],
            "maxRefreshTryCount": 5,
            "tokenType": "Basic",
            "accessToken": "Basic abcd"
        }
    }
}

[kmashwini]

@Saathvik  I am not sending anything in headers , Authorization is there with autogenerated.

[kmashwini]

I have tried above JSON which u mentioned but still getting same error. which is 400 .

[rushikeshvartak]

Please share curl command [Refer https://codingnconcepts.com/postman/how-to-generate-curl-command-from-postman/ ]

[kmashwini]

curl --location 'https://xxxx/Login' \

--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \

--header 'Authorization: Basic xxxx\

--header 'Cookie: xxxx

' \

--data '{

    "username": "xxx",

    "password": "xxx"

}'

[kmashwini]

I have tried below json also , since we are receiving cookie in headers.

{

This is from Saviynt Logs

"authentications":{
"acctAuth":{
"authType":"Basic",
"url":"xx",
"httpMethod":"POST",
"httpParams":{

},
"properties":{
"userName":"xx",
"password":"xx"
},
"httpHeaders":{
"Content-Type":"application/json"
},
"httpContentType":"application/json",
"expiryError":"ExpiredAuthenticationToken",
"authError":[
"USER_AUTHENTICATION_FAILED"
],
"timeOutError":"error",
"errorPath":"error",
"maxRefreshTryCount":3,
"tokenResponsePath":"#HEADERS#Set-Cookie",
"tokenType":"",
"authHeaderName":"Cookie",
"retryFailureStatusCode":[
401
],
"accessToken":"sdfghjk",
"testConnectionParams":{
"http":{
"url":"xxxx",
"httpHeaders":{
"Content-Type":"application/json"
},
"properties":{
"userName":"xxx",
"password":"xxx"
},
"httpContentType":"application/json",
"httpMethod":"POST"
},
"successResponse":[

],
"successResponsePath":"responseText",
"errorPath":"responseText",
"retryFailureStatusCode":[
401
]
}
}
}
}

 Below is the postman, we are not sending anything in params . Cookie is autogenerated in headers and we receive true as response.

[Saathvik]

@kmashwini : Please change the "authHeaderName":"Cookie" to "authHeaderName":"Authorization" and check. Also can you please share the curl command of subsequent call you are using in testConnectionParams? I don't think you have to explicitly pass username/password again in testconnection block

[kmashwini]

In cookie we are getting access token , if we give authorization how it would work . I changed and checked still shows same error .Also we dont have curl command .

[kmashwini]

In cookie we are getting two values as response in postman but in Saviynt I could see only one. How to map this in JSON

[rushikeshvartak]

{
    "authentications": {
        "acctAuth": {
            "authType": "oauth2",
            "url": "URL",
            "httpMethod": "POST",
            "httpParams": {
                "username": "rushi",
                "password": "xxxxxx"
            },
            "httpContentType": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
            "successResponse": [
                200
            ],
            "maxRefreshTryCount": 1,
            "retryFailureStatusCode": [401,400,403,404,500,502,503],
            "tokenResponsePath": "#HEADERS#Set-Cookie",
            "tokenType": "",
            "authHeaderName": "Cookie",
            "access_token": "NGSecure abc"
        }
    }
}

Use above JSON

[kmashwini]

The above JSON also not working, getting same error as 400 in logs

[rushikeshvartak]

Please share logs

[kmashwini]

[rushikeshvartak]

            "access_token": "NGSecure abc"

[kmashwini]

Already we have tried , still shows same error.

   "access_token": "NGSecure abc"

[SB · Accepted solution]

The issue has been fixed after making below changes to Connection JSON.

1. "userName", attribute is case sensitive and was updated to "username".

2. "username":"xx", "password":"xxx" are to be defined under httpParams

[Saathvik]

For reference please share the working JSON because multiple suggestions are provided so trying to see how the final one looks like.

[SB]

@kmashwini can you please share the final JSON we used.
