Keep getting Not Authorized using Cisco API

jmashburn-LCT — Fri, 21 Feb 2020 18:36:13 GMT

]\I am currently trying to test out the Cisco REST API to query the software.cisco.com to check for the latest firmware versions for devices. I am testing it out before we move forward and have hit a snag. I am about to authenticate and get a token and can run a curl GET command and get a return for things like OpenVuln for example, and after adding almost all the APIs I see available can get a Hello World back from api.cisco.com/hello. But when we run the command against https://api.cisco.com/software/v3.0/swstatus/image_names/c2951-universalk9-mz.SPA.157-3.M5.bin it returns back as Not Authorized.

Here is the list of APIs I have added (I added them all because I can't find a list of what does what):

I had to reach out to various Cisco teams to get proper permissions, plus I totally wasn't adding the bearer token to the Authorization header (I'm using Postman - 2 tabs down from Params is Headers - add Authorization and put Bearer <token>). I now need to figure out why I keep getting PID null on my requests...

Vinura,

This was a mission.... But I think you first need to have your Delegated Admin for your company set you up as a Delegated Admin as well. Then, I opened a case with TAC (tac@cisco.com or call 800-553-2447). Note the template below you can use to submit the request to TAC for access to the API. Note that you will need to provide a contract number. I also contacted the Service Support team, but I can't remember if they actually helped me or not (I think this was the team that took about 1-2 months to reply to me opening a case - service_access_management_support@cisco.com or cs-support@cisco.com). Then I contacted the PSS team (Partner Self Service - ask-pss-pm@cisco.com or supportapis-help@cisco.com). This was the team that helped me realize I wasn't applying the bearer token appropriately...... Anywho, I hope this helps!

Problem Description:

Need access to the PSS APIs and specifically to the API Console as the Delegated Administrator.
