Getting authorization issue

I am getting this error message “org.apache.http.client.HttpResponseException: status code: 401, reason phrase: Unauthorized” while trying to hit the api of this url “https://author-p69802-e616155.adobeaemcloud.com”. I have implemented SSL certification also but still getting the same error message.

 

Could you please help to resolve this issue.

Ok, I am using username/password.


What password are you using? You cannot do a POST of your AEM credentials (which you enter either at IMS or at the SSO solution of your company) to AEM, that won't work.

@vandana_ratnaparkhi 

Make sure you are using a bearer token that you generate from AEM development console:

 

And there when you sign in and click on integrations:

 

You can generate a developer token which you could use to make a call and perform requests.

Can you share screenshot of your postman window?

    @vandana_ratnaparkhi Did you try hitting api through postman?

        @vandana_ratnaparkhi That means you will have to pass the credentials to access it.

          Hi.

           

          Do I understand correctly, that you have java code, which tries to connect to the mentioned URL? What approach do you use for authentication?

              What type of authentication (and therefor: credentials) are you using? JWT token? Username/password as basic auth?

               

              (Remember, that in AEM as a Cloud Service the authentication normally works using IMS and tokens, unlike the "classic" way of using username/password).
