account
3 TopicsWhat kind of account do I need to access the REST API?
I'm having issues in accessing the API, I think. I got Error 401 whenever I use my credentials that I believe has admin privileges already. Is there a way to access the API without using the "admin" account? Edit: How do I check if my account has admin privileges? Below is my code: import requests requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings() uname = 'myaccount' pw = 'mypassword' req = requests.session() req.auth = (uname, pw) req.verify = False req.headers.update({'Content-Type': 'application/json'}) uri = 'https://[host]/mgmt/tm/ltm' response = req.get(uri) print(response.text) Result: {"code":401,"message":"Authorization failed: user= resource=/mgmt/tm/ltm verb=GET......."}900Views0likes10CommentsUnable to login F5 guest using admin credentials
