Rest Connection HTTP protocol error 401 with header authentication

Riccardo — Mon, 20 Dec 2021 21:08:46 GMT

Hello, I'm trying to read an API with Rest Connection.

Before try with Qlik Sense, I tried in Postman, and it works fine.

Qlik Sense returns this error instead: HTTP protocol error 401 (Unauthorized): Requested resource requires authentication.

My connection must have the authentication in header request, with no basic or digest auth.

I'm passing the Header Parameter HTTPHEADER "x-authenticate" "<value>"

Can you please help me?

Thanks

Riccardo

If it is contiunously working from Postman definitely it will work in Qlik Sense via rest API only thing you need to create hearders during connection creation (This source team should help) and also, you should be make how the authentication supplied for that If that is service account there won't be an issue.

It doesn't work on wizard during the rest connection creation neither in the script if I write it manually...
