REST API when LDAP enabled

Support
1

Hi,

I've foreman 0.4.2-0.1 (from RPM)

REST API is working me fine when trying to pull facts from a server.

Now, if put LDAP Auth (:ldap: true) in place the API is not responding any
more due to Access Error:

curl -H "Content-Type:application/json" -H "Accept:application/json"
http://foreman.tonyskapunk.net:3000/hosts/foreman.tonyskapunk.net/facts
HTTP Basic: Access denied.

I've tried adding "facts view" in the Anonymous role but still receiving
the same Access denied error.

Any thoughts? should I file an issue if this is not the expected behaviour?

Thanks

You would need to pass in the login credentials. The credentials may be required regardless of the user be anonymous. Try passing in a username/password combo in the header.

Hi Corey,

That did the trick, Thanks!

curl --user tonyskapunk:mysupersecretpassword -H
"Content-Type:application/json" -H "Accept:application/json"
http://foreman.tonyskapunk.net:3000/hosts/foreman.tonyskapunk.net/facts
– chop –

And I got all the facts

Thanks.
