Using Anypoint Access Management - Mulesoft APIs - api

Good morning I am using internal mulesoft Access Management APIs API Reference. I have successfully setup my postman to get the security token after login, and even executed successfully the /api/users/me. However, regardless of the access provided to the connection/login user, i can't get the full list of users (/api/users), receiving a Not authorized error. Let me explain the context. We are running on a federated platform, so we can't manage the users registration from the console, but need to wait until they login through SSO the first time to grant access to the correspondent business group and role. There is a complain as the users need to send the admin a note letting know of their successful first login, and afterwards wait to receive the access to the business group. After they login for the first time, their profiles are created in the root org. You can see them only when you are in the master organization. However, you can't get their new user id when you request a list of users of this master organization (/api/organizations/{orgId}/users). We are looking to execute this /api/users in a batch app that runs periodically and do a cross verification to get the users not associated to any orgid or role. This way we can avoid the requirement of the user sending a note to the admin. When I execute the /accounts/api/users, (API Call), we receive a 401 Unauthorized response, despite the token is correct as it is working fine with the others APIs. there is no mention of any other parameter or requirement in the API reference.
Please advise what can be done to solve this authorization error and complete our app. Thank you in advance.

Had the same issue but figured it out.
Instead of calling /api/users, you should be calling
https://anypoint.mulesoft.com/accounts/api/organizations/{orgId}/members
to get a list of users

Microsoft flow:ForbiddenError-403, when trying to create private channel in MS teams

I am trying to make an HTTP request into MS teams in order to create private channel like in the following example.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/channel-post?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http
In order to authenticate it, the HTTP request, with option of "Active Directory oauth", it needs some info. 1) Cliend ID, 2) Tenant ID, 3) Audience & 4) Credential Type.
Therefore, I register an app at Registration App Azure page, where I have all this info + create a secret to provide it. In addition I give permissions. My task is to create/delete private channels and add/drop members. Why is there a 403-statusCode error called it "Forbidden"?
Also, in a lot of docs, a token is mentioned, but I donot know how to create&use it, as there is also not an accurate, step-by-step example for all this authentication/authorization/permissions.
Can someone provide that? Or explain why is that error there, as the info microsoft.docs is inefficient?
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/resolve-auth-errors
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/v2-oauth2-client-creds-grant-flow
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/resolve-auth-errors
The 403 error indicates that your token lacks the permission to call the api. Each api document clearly explains what permissions are required to call the api.
Take the create channel as an example: It lists the permissions you need to call the api. These permissions are arranged from small to large, and you only need to select one of them. Then you need to add the permission to your application, and then grant the administrator consent for the permission.
Go to Azure portal>Azure AD>App registrations>your app>API permissions.
What you need to note is that permissions are divided into application permissions and delegated permissions.
Delegated permission is the authorization of the service principal on
behalf of the user. It usually involves user interaction. If you need
to log in to the user, you can choose to grant the permission, and
then you need to use the auth code flow to obtain an access token.
Application permission is the authorization of the service principal
on their own behalf. It is usually used in a daemon where no user is
logged in. If you do not need to log in to the user, you can choose to
grant the permission, and then you need to use the
client credential flow to obtain an access token.

Authentication using Azure AD, failing at last step accessing Skype for Business

I am following this guide (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/skype-sdk/ucwa/authenticationusingazuread) in order to access Skype for Business. Everything goes fine till the last part but let's do step by step. I am building my .net console application to do this but in order to explain you properly the problem I am having I will show you directly the http calls through Insomnia (software used to make http calls).
Step 1:
GET request towards https://webdir.online.lync.com/autodiscover/autodiscoverservice.svc/root
I hit 200 and as answer I receive this:
Step 2:
I use the user link.
So I send an http request to https://webdir1e.online.lync.com/Autodiscover/AutodiscoverService.svc/root/oauth/user and I get a 401 Unauthorized (everything still correct).
In the header of the answer it points me to the Identity Provider to ask for authorization (authorization_uri)
Step 3: I use that link to authorize my app, which has its own client_Id (that I hide in the following screenshot).
This is how I compose the call:
If I send this http request I get redirected to the page where it asks my personal login and by inserting my credentials I succesfully login and hit 404, where in the answer I receive back my access token.
Step 5: I use the access token towards the same AutodiscoverService link of step 1. This is to register my application. I hit 200 and I receive back the link to access Skype for Business.
Finally (and this is where things go wrong) I send a POST request towards the applications link with the Bearer token, and I receive a 403 Forbidden. I think I am following correctly the guide but I can't figure out why I can access the resource at the last step.
EDIT:
The permissions are granted. I hide the name since it contains the name of my company. But it is the same of the domain of my login.
So the token you generated authorizes you to access resources at https://webdir1e.online.lync.com which you've done to fetch a new set of resources including the "application" resouce which is on a DIFFERENT host: https://webpooldb41e14.infra.lync.com.
You actually have to get another OAuth token now which authorizes you for the application resource and then you can POST to that to generate your session in UCWA.
As a side note... If you've defined your own single-tenant application in Azure that has been granted rights to SkypeForBusinessOnline then I think you should be targeting authorization and authentication endpoints of the form:
https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenantID}/oauth2/v2.0/authorize
https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenantID}/oauth2/v2.0/token
Also I should add, if you're trying to write a trusted secure client that users in your company will use I would suggest looking up the Resource Owner Password Credentials auth flow. It allows you to directly hit the token endpoint I mentioned above and exchange username/password credentials for an access token. Then you can manage auto-discovery and application creation easily under the hood without getting re-directed back and forth to Azure.

Keycloak uma-grant type tickets for service accounts do not seem to work with policies

I am trying to use the Keycloak AuthzClient to register resources and related permissions in a resource server.
I have a resource server "resourceserver" with authz service enabled.
Using the AuthzClient, initialized with the json file containing the resource server's client id and secret, I'm able to obtain a pat.
...
authzClient.obtainAccessToken().getToken();
ResourceRepresentation resource = new ResourceRepresentation();
resource.setName("myresource");
resource.setUris(new HashSet<>(Collections.singletonList("urn:resourceserver:resourcetype1:myresource")));
resource.setOwnerManagedAccess(true);
resource.setType("urn:resourceserver:resourcetype1");
resource.addScope("read", "write");
resource = authzClient.protection(pat).resource().create(resource);
UmaPermissionRepresentation permissionRepresentation = new UmaPermissionRepresentation();
permissionRepresentation.setName("myresourcepermissions");
permissionRepresentation.setDescription("foo");
permissionRepresentation.addRole("somerole");
UmaPermissionRepresentation result = authzClient.protection(pat).policy(resource.getId()).create(permissionRepresentation)
After executing this code, I can see, in the keycloak admin UI, that the resource has been created, and the scopes, however the policy/permission don't seem to show up.
I believe it is probably intended, as this keycloak admin UI only shows policies of types client, role, js, etc., but not "uma" which is what UmaPermissionRepresentation creates.
I can however see that policy exists in Keycloak by querying authz/protection/uma-policy with my pat.
So there is something there. Now testing it. I created a regular user and assigned it the realm role somerole. Using this user and some arbitrary public client, I'm able to get an RPT.
First getting an access token using the password grant:
grant_type=password&username=joe&password=password&client_id=somepublicclient
Then exchanging that for an RPT:
grant_type=urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:uma-ticket&audience=resourceserver
The RPT comes back and if I view its contents, I can see the authorization block giving me access to the myresource resource.
However, when I try a similar flow with a service account (to which I also granted the somerole role)using the client credentials flow to obtain the initial access token:
grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=serviceaccount1&client_secret=77c1ffa8-0ea8-420c-ad45-e1a69a03838d
I am able to obtain an RPT, but that RPT does not contain myresource in the authorization/permission block, only the Default resource.
I have been trying to understand why that is. I have also tried using the .addClient("serviceaccount1") or even .addUser("service-account-serviceaccount1") in the UmaPermissionRepresentation, but still, the policy doesn't seem to kick in and my service account does not have access to the resource.
This is using Keycloak 4.8.0.Final.
Note: using the keycloak admin client, I am able to create policies/permissions that actually make this work; but in my environment this would causes other problems because of the roles I would need to assign to the admin client (like viewing all clients to retrieve an id etc.)
I have the same problem with KeyCloak 11.0.2.
Shared resources do not end up in the permission tickets of service accounts. Service accounts are explicitly excluded in the authorization token service.
Since sharing resources with service accounts is possible, this seems inconsistent.
However, you can work around this by explicitly setting the azp claim to something other than your client_id via a protocol mapper on your client.

Permission to execute Mulesoft Anypoint Access Management APIs

I am using internal mulesoft APIs from Anypoint Access Management API Reference. I have successfully setup my postman to get the security token after login, and even executed successfully the /api/users/me and several other APIs as API creation, Portal creation, etc. However, regardless of the access provided to the connection/login user, i can't get the full list of users (/api/users) or full list of organizations (/api/organizations), receiving a 401-Not authorized error. What special permission does the connection user require to execute these 2 APIs?
Thank in advance!
Had the same issue but figured it out.
Instead of calling: /api/users, you should be calling https://anypoint.mulesoft.com/accounts/api/organizations/{orgId}/members to get a list of users.

How to get user data from Google API with OAuth remotely from a server?

I've been reading lots of documentation about Google API access and OAuth flow using it but I don't seem to get it working in my mind, so I want to get some help first in order to have a clear idea about how it works then I can code it using the corresponding API.
What I want to achieve is feed a Java application running in a PC with specific Google user data, like localization through Google Latitude API. In order to get this, OAuth must be used, so I need getting the user consent, then access the user data from the application running in my computer, and I don't know how to manage this.
I've already registered my application with the Google APIs Console and enabled the Google Latitude module. I've also tried the Latitude console application here and it works properly (a browser tab opened asking for a Google user; I entered it and I got the location data), but I'm having problems when trying to adapt the program flow to my needs.
In my application, the 'remote' user is supposed to send a request (a custom JSON message) to the server asking for service enable/disable, like allowing the server to track his/her position through Latitude. Then, AFAIK, the server should send to the user a URL so the user can give the consent, but I don't know how to get this URL and how the server realizes about this consent and gets the token (automatically? Google tracks this authorization process?). Once my server gets the specific user token, then I should be ready to get service data for that user using the received token.
As I said before, I've tried according to different references, but as the documentation seems to be really scattered and much of it is already deprecated, I've been unable to get it working.
Judging from your description, the installed app OAuth2 flow seems to be the right one for you.
At some point, presumably when a user is installing your desktop app, you should fire up a browser - either embedded one in your app or the default browser - and sent them to this Google OAuth2 endpoint. In your request, fill out all the parameters as required by the doc: Latitude API scope, client_id, etc. Google, as an authorization server, will take care of user authentication, session selection, and user consent. If the user grants access to her data to your API, you will receive an authorization code either in the title of the browser window or at a localhost port.
Once you have the code, you can exchange it for an access token and a refresh token. The access token is what you need to call the API and access the user's data. It is short lived though - check the expired_in parameter in the response, I believe it is 3600 sec. - so you will need to periodically ping the token endpoint with your long lived refresh token and exchange it for an access token.
You can find a more thoroough description of this flow in the doc linked above.
