Hello All,

I have created a function which consume a certain API which works fine in my local PC but throws following error on live server:
A call to System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse failed with this message: The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.

The api works perfectly on live server while consuming through Postman

401 means bad credentials.

I have checked the credentials. Credentials are correct.

I have already run POSTMAN on live server. It works on POSTMAN but not through NAV.

Maybe you've authenticated as Windows with httpclient objetct, and it works local but not online.
Change the way of authenticate.
