Problem to instantiate host on oVirt with REST API

Support
1

When I try to instantiate an host to oVirt with Foreman API I pass the
correct compute_resource_id and details for network and volumes variables.
But when I try to POST it Foreman give me this error:

"Unable to save": "Failed to create a compute xxx (oVirt) instance
host_prova.xxx: User is not authorized to perform this action…".

But the user in oVirt creates the host normally, so I tried to create the
host with Foreman GUI but I obtain the same error.
Do you know How can I solve this problem?

Thanks in advance for your support

status.

Thanks for you response. I use http://foreman.xxx/hosts. Now I don't see
Foreman versione for some problem in the infrastructure area but I think it
is 1.0.1.

I warn you that I solved my problem. Anyway I have an important question
for you. If my user has admin credential in ovirt it can create an host
with simplicity, but if I use an user with less privileges it has some
problems to instantiate an host with Foreman on Ovirt in spite this user
can create a vm in Ovirt without problems. I have noticed that in Ovirt api
to create an host with this kind of user, we need to set an important flag
on true. So my question is: do Foreman use this flag or not? If it is,
Foreman can instantiate vm with Ovirt only with admin credential in Ovirt.
