Load data entries via REST API. Auth issues.
Hi,
I've setup a Platform app where I have a data object "Budget". I have budgets in another platform, and I want to load them into my Pega app via API (imagine a user creates a budget in another application, and I want to sync it with my Pega app).
I'm having a hard time with the Authentication of the Constellation DX API. I see there is a POST /data/{data_view_id} endpoint I can use, but I can't seem to make the auth work. I've used the "Dev Studio" to setup a new Authentication Profile, as well as OAUth2 client registrations. I have my client ids, secrets, oauth endpoints, etc. but I keep getting 401 errors (The authenticated client is not authorized to use the given grant type with flow clientCredentials, Invalid+value+provided+for+redirect_uri+parameter with authCode).
What am I missing? Do I need to link somewhere the app with the profile? Or the Auth Client registration?
I know I could be adding my data source as the source of the Budget object and have my app pull the data, but at the moment I'm focusing on pushing the data from the source.
Thanks

@PabloR17374929 To resolve the authentication issue with the Constellation DX API, ensure your Authentication Profile in Pega is configured with the correct OAuth 2.0 settings, matching the flow you're using (e.g., client_credentials or authorization_code). Verify that the client ID, secret, and redirect URI in the profile match the values registered with your Identity Provider (IDP). Ensure the Access Group tied to your application has the right permissions to access the Budget data object. Link the Authentication Profile to your REST Connector rule under the Service tab. If using client_credentials, confirm the token endpoint doesn’t require a redirect_uri. Test your configuration using Postman to fetch an access token and call the API with it to check for 401 errors. Debug any issues by enabling OAuth and REST Connector logging in Pega. If problems persist, double-check IDP configurations like scopes and grant types or raise a support ticket with detailed logs.

Hi @PabloR17374929,
Create a separate operator ID and update the security tab in the operator ID security tab. Then, log in with that operator ID and after that try API.
