I need help understanding how to use this action using Nintex Automation Cloud.

 

I’m trying to create a community using the new API for viva engage that is in Beta. How do I get this to work if I created an app using Microsoft Graph API? I have created a client value and secret and was granted access to the app for yammer (viva engage). What now? 

 

I followed instructions up to step 5. Now I want to directly connect using NAC vs power automate. Introducing the Community Creation API for Viva Engage on Microsoft Graph Beta - Microsoft Community Hub

Hi @brandiwoodson,

Sorry, but I am no expert on web services, but I know enough to get by.
Are you able to get this working in Postman?
That bearer token looks very short.  They are usually much longer than that.

No to postman. We were trying to figure out how to use it without postman.

Hi @brandiwoodson,

I understand that you want to use the call a web service action in Nintex Automation Cloud, but to make sure that you are configuring the web service correctly, see if you can get it working in Postman first.
Once you have done that, you can transfer the headers, etc., from Postman to the Call a web service action.

Thanks. What is the reason for Postman? Can we not directly call to Viva Engage without Postman? I’m not tech savy so sorry for my ignorance here. I don’t get the point of the Postman step.
