Hi ,

We were validating On Premise OData URL for Business Central Cash Receipt entity. When we use the option to validate using POST with Basic Authentication we get Invalid Hostname error - see below image.

The on premise environment is published with LIVE IP and we are giving Website URL , can be seen in image.

Please suggest what can be the missing part here.

Hello,

If you are facing the issue Bad Request - Invalid Hostname while calling the API from Postman, consider adding the Host in Headers.

Thanks.

Hi Ahsan,

This can be resolved, very easily just do some changes in Server Instance and in postman.

Server Instance:

* Open Business Central Administrator
* Expand the Server Instance and Enable "Use NTLM Authentication"

* Restart your Server Instance

Postman App:

* Open Postman App
* Go to Authorization Tab and in Type choose: NTLM Authentication [Beta]
* Enter your domain\Username and the password

Inshallah this will work for you.
