Need authentication details to use Deployment Manager API services
Hi,
I have downloaded the deployment manager swagger file to get the DM API endpoint URLs and imported into my Postman workspace.
In order to use the DM API services/methods, i need to set up the Authorization configuration.
Where can i get the authorizarion details to grant access and be able to invoke these DM API services? I mean, is it an OAuth 2 authorization? If so, is it client credentials, authorization code, etc.?
To be honest i do not know where and how to get the authorization details to use the DM API services.
Regards,

@IsraelU1 In DM 5.5.2, the orchestrator-to-candidate calls still use Basic authentication, and the default auth profile used by DM is typically DMAppAdmin (Basic), so in Postman you can start with Basic auth using an operator that has the right access group/roles for DM endpoints. If you want OAuth2, you must explicitly set up OAuth in Pega (OAuth 2.0 client registration + token generation) and then call the DM endpoints with a Bearer access token in Postman (machine-to-machine usually maps to client credentials. One important gotcha: if you OAuth-protect the candidate endpoints that DM expects to reach with Basic auth, your pipelines/tasks can fail in 5.5.2, because that path isn’t fully supported yet. You can go though this link and might be helpful for you. Thanks
