M.App Enterprise Discussions

[Sreedevi]

Hello Community,

I have a custom application that is deployed under M.App website. It has the same hostname as M.App enterprise. When it loads, it logins to MAE using the standard login and stores the token in local storage. 

I need to call the MAE Query API in one of the button click event from my code.But it is giving me 401 unauthorized error. I am using an ajax call to the Query API URL and pass the token as a header to it. 

I have attached a screenshot of the code i am using to test the Query api. Can anyone please help me figure out what I am missing here?

Hi Sreedevi,

You also need to pass the Tenant in the header as well. Here's a snippet of what I use as part of the ajax call:

$.ajax({...

  beforeSend: function (xhr) {
     xhr.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + "MY BEARER TOKEN");
     xhr.setRequestHeader('Tenant', "MY TENANT");                        
  }

...});

Hope this helps

Thank you  David,

I am still getting 401 error.

Below is the token format i pass to the header.

{"access_token":"----bearer token----","token_type":"bearer","expires_in":899,"refresh_token":"bf10db17-3fce-4957-ba19-d0304519cbd9","userId":"0a7d6124-f729-49ec-899f-4ff6ff1bbe4a","userName":"uat","userFullName":"M.App Enterprise Studio Account","userEmail":"sramanujan@imgs.ie","userLanguage":"en","isRightToLeftLanguage":"false","sessionId":"08afec29-cf15-41b0-8973-bdc5f3e637b9","initialRecharge":"false","invalidLicense":"None","client_id":"App","accountName":"IMGS - Irish Mapping and GIS Solutions","isActiveDirectory":"true","runtimeLicense":"false",".issued":"Wed, 02 Oct 2019 13:36:12 GMT",".expires":"Wed, 02 Oct 2019 13:51:12 GMT","expiration_date":1570024272213}

Hi Serrdevi,

Just edited your reply to remove the bearer token so it's not in public domain.

You're close - instead of passing the entire object, just pass the access_token value.

xhr.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + yourObj.access_token);

Thanks very much David.

Yes it is working now.

Hello Community,

Can I extend the expiration of MAE access_token?

Or getting a new accesss token using refresh token the only way to extend it?
