Unable to use API - Alteryx gallery 2022.3

[Shashankr]

Hello,

I am trying to Get the questions for the given Alteryx Analytics App - The server is returning the below response

Status : 403 Forbidden

Body :

{

    "message": "Access denied."

}

Below are the steps I followed :

1) Got the token from {server}/webapi/oauth2/token

2) Using this token tried to make a GET call to {server}/webapi/v1/workflows/:appId/questions

The API call is throwing a forbidden error.

Please let me know if we are missing any step.

Thank you!

Hi @Shashankr ,

Starting from Server 2022.1, the new Server Web API service now uses the OAuth2 method for authentication for all API endpoints. This means that API calls now require an API Access Key and Secret, rather than just the Access Token as in your screenshot.

Try making the same API call in the Server interactive API documentation using your API Access Key and Secret, which can be found under My Profile > Keys. See the attached image as an example. For more information on completing the API authentication, you can see this Help page: https://help.alteryx.com/20223/server/server-api-configuration-and-authorization

Thanks,

Hi Ken,

I also tried to run API's through swagger on {AlteryxServer}/webapi//swagger/ui/index#/

1) Entering the Client ID and Secret

2) After authenticating 

2) Now trying a GET API - to get questions from a workflow 

4) I have the required permission's to run this workflow from Gallery- As shown in the screenshot below - I just ran the workflow today

Please let me know if we are missing any steps to get successful API calls.

Hi @Shashankr ,

Could you please try adding your Server user to the same Subscription/Studio as the target workflow here, i.e., "Service Account uipathrobot's Studio"? Then, please try running the same API call again and see if it works for you.

Thanks,
