Postman Authentication for On Premise Business Central OData

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi ,

We were validating On Premise OData for Business Central entity. When we use the option to validate using GET with NTLM Authentication we get 401Unauthorized error - see below image.

We are Using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2020 Release Wave 2 and Authentication with a Domain\username and secret web access key.

Please suggest what can be the missing part here.

    Hi, I re-tested it, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

    Just in case, please check the following options again.

    Hi, It should works if you enable NTLM Authentication.

    For more information, please take a look at this similar post, community.dynamics.com/.../how-to-use-basic-authentication-to-access-web-service-in-d365bc-server-in-a-vm
