Business Central on Cloud Web services 401 Unauthorized

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Rehan Satti 636

Hi all,

I have published customer page as web service on Business central on cloud.

I have generated the web-access key without expiry date.

I am using Post man to verify end points. It works fine until I am  login in Business central.

After a longing out from Business central web-client  it gives 401 Unauthorized error.

I want to use the OData endpoints in a third party application which will perform CRUD operation for customer.

Any idea If I am missing some thing?

Thanks

    Basic authentication actually works on a SaaS tenant. You should provide username and web service access key (as I think you’ve done). This has nothing to do with login/logout procedure of a user.

    Is this a sandbox or production?

    Hi Stefano Demiliani,

    That's why I am wondering what would be the possible reason for Authentication failure.  

    This is the Microsoft Business central cloud sandbox environment.

    However one thing that is different, I am accessing the Client Business central sandbox through CSP. This behavior is not seen on cloud sandbox If my account is part of the my primary organization.

    Hello,

    I did ask around here internally if there are limitations when using a delegated account and will update this posting as soon as I do hear anything. Meanwhile it is not written here as a imilation:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../delegated-admin

    Maybe one of the CSP in this forum can confirm if that is a limitation?

    Thanks.
