The API_Key used has no authorization

[hanhan]

coding using python to get the log in via API and process the data.. but the question is, when we use the API_Key from Forti, the content is empty, as if the API_Key used does not have authorization to get that Intrusion Prevention data. However, when I tried to use a cookie that was the result of intercepting the API.. there was a result

Hello,

so you are using API to retrieve IPS data from FortiGate.

Can you check what response is the FortiGate providing upon getting the API request?

Maybe there is a need to use a different API endpoint when requesting data.

In FortiGate use the following debugs while you recreate the issue:

diagnose debug console timestamp enable
diagnose debug application httpsd -1
diagnose debug application nodejs -1
diagnose debug application flcfgd -1
diagnose debug application cu_acd -1
diagnose debug application fortilinkd -1
diagnose debug enable

This will give you more details on how FortiGate is responding to the request.

You can test with things like postman Insomnia and the Auth header should be with name "Authorization" and value "Bearer <API key>" and better see and test it with the test command for 7.6.3. If you see issues with the test commands and are not on 7.6.3 then :)
