In K2 Cloud Management we have done the following referring to the URL,

  1. Enabled the Workflow REST API and exposed the endpoints to authorized users.
  2. We have shared the Swagger file and the Base endpoint URL for consumption.
  3. We have added the Domain under the Domains allowed.

 

Then tried consuming the API from the application but we got 401 Unauthorized error. We also tried from POSTMAN by passing the Basic Auth (AAD Credentials). Can you please let us know what are we missing in the process.

Hello thileeban,

It sounds like you may still need to grant workflow premissions to the AAD User you are using for Basic Auth. This is done on the management site for your environment under the Workflow Server tab. Expand "Workflows" and find the workflow you are trying to start/view/etc. Under the "Rights" tab, add your AAD user account and check the desired boxes to grand that user the rights you need.

After that you should be able to successfully call the workflow methods using basic auth from Postman or any other method.
