Act-On software REST connection

Hi, I want to connect https://act-on.com/ with Qlik via the rest connector. I have followed the API documentation of Act-On. In Postman the connection succeeds, but the REST connector of Qlik fails.

The Act-On API uses OAuth, is there a way in Qlik to use OAuth? Or is there any other way to connect Act-On and Qlik?

Please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Caroline,

I had issues with my connection as well, and the way I was able to connect, was to add a query parameter in the header using the values below, symbolizing the token by XXX

Name: Authorization

Value: Bearer XXX

Assuming you have generated the token already.

Let me know if it works for you.

Cheers,

Luiz

Hi Luiz,

Thanks for your reply. I haven't succeed to get the token in Qlik. This is the set up I used.

Query url: https://restapi.actonsoftware.com/token

Method: POST

Request body: {
"grant_type"="password",
"client_id"="xxx",
"client_secret"="xxx",
"username"="xxx",
"password"="xxx"
}

Query parameters and query headers are empty.

Are this the values you used to generate the token in Qlik?
