VMware Access Point Rest API

[jmp130]

I can connect to https://appliance:9443/rest/swagger.yaml via a browser but not via Postman or cURL. Is there something else that is needed to make the connection work?

You shouldn't need to do anything else. Can you give an example of a curl command you are using that is failing. What's the error?

I have found often in deploying the OVF that the admin credentials do not get properly set... set them manually and then see if you use Postman.Run the following on the AccessPoint server.

please replace 'password' with something secure

echo 'adminPassword=password’ > /opt/vmware/gateway/conf/firstboot.properties

chown gateway /opt/vmware/gateway/conf/firstboot.properties

supervisorctl restart admin

Deploying Access Point using the PowerShell command reliably works as it validates the admin password automatically. See Using PowerShell to Deploy VMware Access Point

Hi,

i have the same issue.. Password for admin User is complex enough. Connections on https://accesspointip are still ok.

Anyone some idea?

Best Regards,
