401 Unauthorized Error On Postman Post Requests - Pilot Environment

abhishekdhakla

Hey Refinitiv Team,

Hope you're doing well!

We were trying to setup the pilot environment using the postman collections available on the website but can't seem to make a 'Post' request. The 'Get' requests work fine, however, all the post requests throw a 401 Unauthorised error. We're currently trying to run the 'Perform Synchronous Screening: Simple' request and haven't changed anything in the collection.

Here is the request body for reference:

{
  "groupId":"{
  {group-id}}",
  "entityType": "INDIVIDUAL",
  "providerTypes": [
    "WATCHLIST"
  ],
  "name": "putin",
  "secondaryFields":[],
  "customFields":[]
}

Here are the relevant environment variables:

Hello @abhishekdhakla

Sorry for the late response. I noticed that you are trying to connect to the api-worldcheck.refinitiv.com API endpoint which is the World-Check API(s), not the Refinitiv Data Platform APIs.

I am not the World-Check API expert, but there are the World-Check API(s) resources that might help you

• World-Check One Zero Footprint Screening API - Quick Start
• World-Check One API Zero Footprint Screening - Postman Collection - Download page
• World-Check One API - Quick Start

Additionally, you can contact the World-Check Customer Service team via the grc.wc.admin@refinitiv.com email address.

I am really sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello abhishekdhakla,

Please try this collection: ...QpsValuationASLSimpleApp\tests\api\collection\Financial_Contract_API.postman_collection.json

Kind regards,

Hey
@Aliaksei.Nevelski! Can you please share a link to this collection? I cannot seem to find it in the v1 or v2 postman collections file!

Hey
@Aliaksei.Nevelski! The link says site cannot be reached for me. Do I need special permissions to view it?

Aliaksei.Nevelski

Yes, for Developers

@Aliaksei.Nevelski I should have the develop permissions myself; however, it still throws an error stating the site can't be reached.

hm it is strange... Last guess is please try right VPN (cisco) in your Pilot device.

abhishekdhakla

@Aliaksei.Nevelski We might not be able to use VPN for accessing the link, is it possible to receive the collection via a different method (i.e. Sending to our registered email, for instance)?

Aliaksei.Nevelski

Unfortunately it is not possible to provide code by another way.

Hi @Aliaksei.Nevelski

I think the https://git.sami.int.thomsonreuters.com repository is internal Refinitiv repo, external clients cannot access the site.
