Hi all,
I am trying to run ALM (Quality Center 11) rest service. I ran /rest-is-authenticated and entered Basic Authorization as it requires LW-SSO authentication but I get this error
<h2>401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.</h2>
<h3>You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.</h3>
Does anyone have any idea? thanks,
John
As per the HP - ALM REST documentation, you should be calling the below method with Basic credentials in order to get the LW-SSO token,
GET /qcbin/authentication-point/authenticate
You don't need to pass Basic credentials to the method GET /qcbin/rest/is-authenticated at all, since its is just a validator to check whether you are authenticated and it is an optional step too. I was successfully able to signin to ALM through this process.
Thanks,
Samy

AlumniHi chehs01m,
The error messages says that your account doesn’t have enough permissions. Are you sure that your account settings set correctly?
