Xero - Getting 401 Unauthorized for get:/Accounts, scopes added - xero-api

I am trying to get a list of my accounts using
GET:https://api.xero.com/api.xro/2.0/Accounts with my access token.
The response is 401 / Unauthorized
My app has these scopes:
accounting.transactions
accounting.transactions.read
accounting.settings
accounting.settings.read
accounting.contacts
accounting.contacts.read
accounting.settings.read should be adequate according to the Scopes documentation
I am using the same PHP code used to GET:/Invoices which works fine, with headers:
Accept: application/json
authorization: Bearer $access_token
I am using a Custom Connection, as we have a machine-to-machine setup with no interface.
The App configuration screen, and available scopes are shown here:

JWT Authentication in StepZen

I have two headless backend services: Saleor and Strapi, which provide with GraphQL API for e-commerce development. The problem was to find a service, which can stitch two( or more ) GraphQL schemas so that I can have access to them by one endpoint. Such service is StepZen. Normally when trying to fetch requests on StepZen you would have to do it with
{
"Authorization": "apikey <apikey>"
}
as a header. And it would also work. But when you have some fields in schemas you stitching which Require JWT authentication you need somehow to pass in Authorization header Bearer token. In StepZen there is an opportunity to forward headers, so theoretically I could use that to forward Authorization header to fields, because StepZen also provides JWT Authentication when making your request instead of using API-Key. And THAT is the main problem(failing to access StepZen with only Bearer Token).
As it stays in documentation I changed my config.yaml file accordingly:
deployment:
identity:
jwksendpoint: https://<MY-DOMAIN>/.well-known/jwks.json
access:
policies:
- type: Query
policyDefault:
condition: '?$jwt'
Unfortunately trying after this accessing the endpoint with the Bearer Token as the value of Authorization header like this:
{"Authorization" : "Bearer <token>"}
got me always the same 401 error from StepZen, NOT Saleor( Unauthorized: missing or not allowed ), which means that none of my requests reach its endpoint. I am totally lost, because I tried already all combinations from the StepZen docs of config.yaml file and none of that worked. I would be very happy if someone could explain me what the problem is.

Keycloak user authorization openid-protocol Rest API

i am new to keycloak.
I have made web portal that authentication (login, logout,forgot password) of users is done in backend ( PHP ) using REST Api. After successful authentication user is allowed to enter secure part of portal.
I am having trouble to get REST API endpoint so that when user is logged in i would like to get a list of permissions that this user have so i can render the UI with functions that specific user have permissions to. So far i found endpoint which can ask for specific permission only
curl -X POST http://$URL/auth/realms/argo/protocol/openid-connect/token -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" --data "audience=$CLIENTID" --data "permission=$PERMISSIONNAME#$PERMISSIONSCOPE"
Is this possible with keycloak ? I would have maybe around 10 navigation functions and some will be payable so once user buys this function we will allow this permission to this specific user.
Thanks
I spent a lot of time to make it work.
Basically, once the user is logged in (via a JWT access token) your app has to issue an additional call to an OIDC endpoint, in order to get an extended JWT token (including fine grained permissions).
Here are the details of this extra call:
POST http://server:port/auth/realms/<realm>/protocol/openid-connect/token
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Authorization: "Bearer ....." (=access token of logged-in user)
Parameters:
- grant_type: the constant "urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:uma-ticket"
- audience : the keycloak client id
- response_include_resource_name: true
You will get in response a JWT token that should be decoded
either programatically (quite easy)
or by invoking Keycloak token introspection endpoint (ie /auth/realms//protocol/openid-connect/token/introspect
And, once decoded, you will notice that the json payload contains an extra "authorization" node.

Authorizing API Requests to 3rd Party Services in Mongodb Realm

I'm building a React app that allows users to login with Google and then connects to a webhook/3rd Party service in Realm. The service should only return data that the users own.
I've set up the OAuth 2 with Google and can get back access_token for a user and I then pass it in the header (I've also tried the URL params) to the webhook. But I get an error back saying:
400 "no authentication methods were specified" - "Invalid Parameter".
After much testing, I've identified that it must be a Realm issue - but I can't figure out what.
I've tried authenticating with Google in Postman and sending a request from there like this:
GET <incoming_webhook URL>
Request Headers
Authorization: Bearer <access_token>
User-Agent: PostmanRuntime/7.26.10
Accept: */*
Host: us-east-1.aws.webhooks.mongodb-realm.com
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br
Connection: keep-alive
But I get the same error.
In Realm I have "Google" enabled as an authentication providers (and the authentication works just not the authorization through the webhook).
Per https://docs.mongodb.com/realm/services/configure/service-webhooks/#configure-user-authentication, you can choose email/password, an API key, or a custom JWT token. I don't know whether you can use google login directly to a webhook, but you're probably better off making a realm function instead.
Regarding the error no authentication methods were specified, you can specify the type of authentication method (using a custom JWT as an example) by either:
putting it in the header:
Header: jwtTokenString, Value: eyJhbGci.....
OR
by including it as part of the webhook body:
{
"jwtTokenString":"eyJhbGci...",
"mydata": "my data value"
}
If you try to use both methods, you get a multiple authentication methods used error. HTTP Bearer tokens in the header, etc, are useless here.
For an API Key, instead of jwtTokenString, use api-key; or email`password` for email\password authentication.
I found these methods of providing authenticating information really unintuitive and the documentation very unclear.

Getting error 502 when using REST API to retrieves list of all applications

GET /imfpush/v1/apps HTTP/1.1
Host: mobilefoundation-3b-mf-server.mybluemix.net
Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImp....
Content-Type: application/json
another type of invocation
curl -X GET -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1N...." "https://mobilefoundation-3b-mf-server.mybluemix.net/imfpush/v1/apps"
Error 502: Failed to make token request, reason: Unsuccessful request to Authorization Server, server responded with status code: 400 and body : {"errorCode":"invalid_client"}, check the Authorization URL: http://localhost:8080/mfp/api/az/v1/token
TL;DR: right now looks like there is a bug in the /imfpush/v1/apps endpoint where it does not filter the applications by the vendor (APNS, GCM, WNS), so you can only get a list of all applications instead...
Note however that it all depends on your end goal. You can accomplish this by code or by using tools such as curl or Postman, Swagger etc... it all depends on what you want to achieve.
Here are 3 ways:
In the local development server - not available in Mobile Foundation service on Bluemix, you can use this URL to see the REST endpoints exposed in Swagger. You can then view push-enabled applications with this one: http://localhost:9080/doc/?url=/imfpush/v1/swagger.json#!/Applications/getAllApplications
First, in MobileFirst Operations Console > Runtime Settings > Confidential clients:
Add (just an example, choose your own) a new user client (id: user, secret: user)
Add the apps.read and push.application.* scopes
Be sure to click on the knob and add the apps.read and push.applications.* scopes.
You will also be asked to authorize. Use the username and password for the user confidential client that you previously created.
Using the /imfpush service, as described below.
Using the mfpadmin service, as described below.
In my examples I will use Postman.
In MobileFirst Operations Console > Runtime Settings > Confidential clients:
Added (just an example, choose your own) a new user client (id: user, secret: user)
Added the apps.read and push.application.* scopes
Obtained an access token by making a POST request to http://localhost:9080/mfp/api/az/v1/token with:
Authorization tab:
Type: Basic Auth
user: user
password: user
Body tab:
x-www—form-urlencoded
grant_code: client_credentials
scope: apps.read push.application.*
Obtained the list of applications by making a GET request to http://localhost:9080/imfpush/v1/apps with:
Headers tab:
Authorization: Bearer the-access-token-from-step-2
To filter the list by platform, the URL should change to the following, like the example in the API documentation: http://localhost:9080/imfpush/v1/apps/?expand=true&filter=platform==A&offset=0&size=10 But since this does not work right now... use: http://localhost:9080/imfpush/v1/apps/
Of course, you need to change localhost to your server's host.
To only obtain a list of all applications, it'd be faster to use the mfpadmin service applications endpoint. Using Postman:
Created a new GET request to http://localhost:9080/mfpadmin/management-apis/2.0/runtimes/mfp/applications
You can change the domain to yours.
In the Authorization tab, I have set the following:
Type: Basic Auth
Username and Password: your username and password (to the console)
In return I have received a list of registered applications.

SurveyMonkey API - Console issue

im trying to test the Survey Monkey api via the online test console but keep getting the following error:
https://developer.surveymonkey.com/io-docs (link)
It's asking me to enter the Authorisation:
Content-Type:
Authorization: bearer %s <--- not sure where to get this from? (Access token)
api_key:
JSON:
and so im getting a "errmsg": "Invalid \"Authorization\" data in request header"
Is this generated elsewhere.. or am i missing something
You get the access token when you perform OAuth - select the app from your existing client credentials, hit Authorize, log into your SurveyMonkey account, and it should auto-populate the 'Access Token' field. Then copy this into the Authorization header in the form "bearer (access token)" (without the quotes or parentheses).
Cheers,
Miles
The authorization header works for me with bearer XXXYYYZZ. Doc here: https://developer.surveymonkey.com/mashery/requests_responses
