API Auth Token issue

[matthew.cable]

Hi
I have an API where I am trying to obtain the Access Token, I have the collection in Postman which is working fine but I am unable to make this work in Blue Prism.

I am not sure if it is because it uses FormData to obtain token but BP does not like it, I have tried multiple ways and get the error messages of 400, or the output is not a JSON response.

I am using BP 6.7.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you 
Matt

Are you using Web API or VBO to configure this in Blue Prism. If you can post a screenshot of your BP configuration, we can suggest the change required to make it work.

Hi Shashank,

I have tried lots of different things, I have attached a word document with screen shots of the Web API that I have used. and also the instructions on how to connect from the API provider.

Also please see screen shot below of error from the process.

Hi Matthew,

Set the Body Template as
resource=[resource]&grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=[client_id]&client_secret=[client_secret]
​
Set the Header as
Content-Type      application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Remove the response parameter for now and see if you are getting the response. And the parameters in URL should be enclosed in square brackets.. [tenant]

For the  application/x-www-form-urlencoded content type, you will have to set the HTTP Method to POST.

Sorry I got a bit confused after re-looking at your post. Are you doing a GET or a POST request from POSTMAN and what is the Content-Type, form-data or x-www-form-urlencoded?

Hi Shashank,

I have amended this to POST and it now works.
