Maximo Open Forum

I'm trying to send a post request from maxim to another Maximo (test server), the end goal is to integrate with MS dynamics, but I want to check configuration first and analyze the response (where and how I'll get the response data), but it fails every time and I cannot identify the problem 
anyone has a previous experience with this kind of integration

Maybe I'm remembering wrong but to use Business Central webservices you need to authenticate via OAuth.

You can find info in docs of v7.6.1.3 and in technotes like this: How to use OAuth2 authentication on outbound integration

unfortunately, I found the TPAE is 7612 which is not valid for this configuration
thank you so much for your support

Hi,

Couple of observations.  If you're sending a POST to Maximo, then the tag cannot be "Publish".  It needs to be "Sync", so you'll need to add a customization to your outbound integration to change this.
If you're POSTing XML to Maximo, then the content type needs to be "text/xml", not "application/xm".
The unauthorized error you're receiving is probably because of improper authentication.  For authenticating, you need to pass a header of "MAXAUTH" and the value is a base64-encoded value "username:password".  Also, I would remove the apikey from the header since you're using username/password.

Good luck!
