API Enabled setting

Hi,

 

How do I add the API Enabled permisison to my users? I am an administrator of the system, and the Add Permission Sets shows that I do not have any permissions to add. I did sign up for the Developers Edition of Salesforce

 

Thanks.

Hi Clarius,

 

You must check with the profile that is assigned to your users.

 

Go to Setup Menu (Administration Setup) -> Manage Users -> Profiles -> <Select your user profile> -> Administrative Persmissions Section -> Check API Enabled.

 

Please let me know if this helps

Thanks. I found it for System Administrator role and all the other roles. It is already enabled for all roles, but I still get a INVALID_SESSION_ID when I try to connect to the REST API, after successful OAuth2 negotiation.

Something is wrong with Session Id that is passed after successful OAuth2 authentication. Try to capture session Id using
{!$Api.Session_ID}

 

Hope this helps.

I do not understand your response. For example, I did an OAuth2 authentication, got a successful authentication using the redirect_url. In the redirect_url callback, I got the JSON response with the Access Token and the Instance URL. I then try the following, externally on the console. $ curl https://na9.salesforce.com/services/data/v20.0/ -H 'Authorization: Bearer 00DE0000000axkl!ARsAQBSw.MrOzpseWu7W0WfC_Ulg6sDkDc58lf7PY0G6rsnotqouGEGhb5gAfyVznD.k9PWOG5LVYtLAFQp0Rq7hAxQvnDwy' and it gives me the following error. [{"message":"Session expired or invalid","errorCode":"INVALID_SESSION_ID"}] Note that the token has not expired (only a minute went by since the callback) and my Instance URL and Access Token are passed to 'curl' correctly. Thanks
