Error While calling API using WebAPI functionality provided in System tab

[ManishRaw]

Hi All,

I am trying to access the API, while using the WebAPI functionality for the same we are getting the below error:


We have checked the API key and the same is correct, also the call is working correctly with CURL. 

CURL Command Snippet:
curl --location --request GET "XXXXX" --header "apikey: XXXXX" --header "Content-Type: XXXXX" --data-raw "{"query":"","variables":{}}"

WebAPI Wizard Snippet:

Hi Manish,

Based on the information that I am able to see, what you had in Curl does not appear to be an exact match as what you did in Blue Prism.

• apikey in Curl vs. apiKey in BP
• some body message in Curl vs. no body message at all in BP

That being said, neither would have played a role in the failure of the HTTP call. Without API documentation, it is not possible to be specificc.

The HTTP error code is 401, and the error message seems to suggest the key is not suitable for the purpose. But without seeing the full content of your call, it is difficult to comment on that.

Hi @Manish Rawat,

@Bruce Liu has called out the main issues with what we can see. The one thing I would recommend is to make sure the API key value doesn't have any extra leading or trailing whitespace. That is a common error when people copy/paste an API key value.

Cheers,

Hi Bruce, Eric,

Thanks for your response.

Just found out the issue, the apikey was correct but the URL given missed an entry that's why the error Invalid ApiKey for given resource, was thrown instead of Invalid ApiKey.


Hope this will help others if they had the similar issue :)
