API Access

Question

Hi all, we have a partner who I am tryng to allow access to the API for financial reconciliation.

I have been through the steps, as best as this lay person can, and they are advising that they are able to successfully connect, they get a successful 200 status, but they are unable to return a list of queries.

Does anyone have an idea of what may be wrong or what step I have missed?

Thank you 🙂

@Koketso Mamabolo - as Jordan noted, if the user is receiving a 200 response, they should have the needed api permissions. Few things to check: Can they access queries when they log into the UI? Can they run a query manually? Is the query owned by others & not shared? Answer may be in the security groups. API rights are mostly governed by product permissions.

Hi Jordan,

Would you happen to know which permission a user requires to execute queries Endpoint (/query/queries/execute) ?

Thanks.

HI Jordan, thank you for taking time out to reply.

This is very helpful and confirms we are on the right track. I have revisitied the permissions with a tweak and hopefully they can now access the data they need.
