Cannot update through API (v2024)

Hi,
I’m trying to use REST API to add a record in a table. PHP Project is basic. Users and dynamic user levels is activated. I can login with users, I can add records to table. But not through API.

With Postman, I do a login (see below) I get a JWT-tocken but when trying to add a record I get 401 Unauthorized.

POST: https://msgsys.domain.com/api/login

HEADERS
Content-Type=application/json

BODY
{
    "username": "user",
    "password": "password"
}

DECODED TOKEN
{
  "iat": 1732407988,
  "jti": "OWE5N2ExOGUtMzdhNC00MGFiLThmOWUtZjJhYTdlZDc2MzMx",
  "iss": "msgsys.domain.com",
  "nbf": 1732407988,
  "exp": 1732408588,
  "values": {
    "username": "user",
    "userid": "1",
    "parentuserid": "",
    "userlevel": -1,
    "userprimarykey": 1,
    "permission": 0
  }
}

POST https://msgsys.domain.com/api/add/emails

HEADERS
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer <JWT-token>
Accept: application/json

BODY
{
    "subject": "Test Subject",
    "from_address": "sender@example.com",
    "to_address": "recipient@example.com",
    "date": "2024-04-27 12:34:56",
    "body": "This is a test email.",
    "is_read": 0
}

RESULT: 401 Unauthorized

I’m probably doing something basic wrong. Any Ideas? (v2024.16)

You need to check your API JWT authorization header advanced setting. By default it is “X-Authorization”, not “Authorization”.
