REST API using the /scripts endpoint not working

Products

• CA Automic Workload Automation - Automation Engine
• Automic SaaS

Issue/Introduction

We wanted to migrate CallAPI processes to the REST API using the /scripts endpoint.

(POST http[s]://{host}:{port}/ae/api/{version}/{client_id}/scripts)

But in SaaS, we do not have the "Login as CallAPI" privilege, which is necessary to use the Endpoint. 

Cause

Without the "Login as CallAPI" privilege, the /scripts endpoint was not accessible.

Resolution

Workaround:

Add the "Login as CallAPI" privileges to the user or user group.

Solution:

Update to a fix version listed below or a newer version if available.

Fix version:

Component(s): Automation Engine

Automation.Engine 24.4.0 HF3 - Available

(In this version and above, the mentioned privilege is no longer needed.)
