I am trying use the Login to Acumatica Rest API with Postman. 

​​According to the documentation I have found in the web, I should be using http://MyCompany.acumatica.com/entity/auth/login as URL

 

The body as detailed below:

{
"name":"johnd",
"password":"johndpassword",
"tenant":"mytenant"
}

 

I get an error in Postman as detailed below:

{"message":"An error has occurred.","exceptionMessage":"Error: Invalid credentials. Please try again.","exceptionType":"PX.Data.PXException","stackTrace":" at PX.Data.PXLogin.LoginUserImpl(HttpContext httpContext, String userName, String password)\r\n

What am I doing wrong?

Your url looks correct but you might need to specify the branch in your JSON payload.  Also noticed you are using the keyword tenant instead of company.

{

"name" : "{{name}}",

"password" : "{{password}}",

"company" : "{{company}}",

"branch" : "{{branch}}"

}

Hi @RafaDiazBAI 

The request looks fine. Are you able to login using these credentials in the browser /UI?

Why is the Acumatica Website providing this example then?

{  "name" : "admin",  "password" : "123",  "tenant" : "MyStore",  "branch" : "MYSTORE",  "locale" : "EN-US"}
