NPrinting API Browser Error code 403 User has no rights to access the resource

[Frank_S]

 

Symptom of the apparent problem:

• When executing NPrinting API code in any web browser, the following error is returned in the browser:

"code":403,"message":"User has no rights to access the resource"

Environment

• All supported NPrinting environments

Resolution

• Log into the NPrinting Web Console as an NPrinting user which is a member of the NPrinting Administrators role. You MUST use Windows Login (blue button) to initialize a windows domain session.
• Insert your API address code into your browser's address bar
• Click 'Enter'

Cause:

• It is a security matter. Access to NPrinting API code from a browser requires that the user has the appropriate permission to run it. That user must be an NPrinting user that is a role member of the NPrinting administrators role. This prevents anyone that is not an NP administrator from accessing potentially sensitive information about the NPrinting environment
