Hi. I have installed Kaltura CE 14.16 on CentOS 6 server and trying to use API to get the partner’s details using -2 admin console account.

I am creating an application using Laravel that would allow to control the data inside Kaltura. I am the beginning of this process and trying to read the partner’s details from API using the /service/partner/action/get endpoint with partner ID -2 - admin console. But I am receiving an error - SERVICE_FORBIDDEN

I have tried to go through the permission checking login on the API side. But it seems to be correct there.

Do I have to enable something in the permissions for this call to work?

REQUEST:
POST http://kaltura.local:280/api_v3/service/partner/action/get HTTP/1.1

{“format”:“2”,“ignoreNull”:true,“clientTag”:“php5:19-04-04”,“apiVersion”:“14.16.0”,“id”:“104”,“ks”:“OWQ3NjE4MTUxNGU0Nzc0ZjE0MTNlMzQ0N2YxMThiZjI3YTc1ZjM1ZHwtMjstMjsxNTU1NzUxODc0OzI7Mjc5OTg7Ow==”,“partnerId”:“104”,“kalsig”:“1bf2f0dcb9c68d0a520be5b98d4bcaf4”}

Hi @alexey_plodenko,

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? If you’re trying to imitate the Admin Console functionality and get a list of all the partners then you need to use the Admin Console client [see /opt/kaltura/app/admin_console/lib/Kaltura/Client/SystemPartner/].

If you just want to obtain your own partner object, then you should call partner.get() with a KS that belongs to that partner [104 in your example], not the -2 [the Admin Console system partner] KS.

“Imitate” is the right word. I was using the wrong client’s library version. /opt/kaltura/app/admin_console/lib/Kaltura/Client/ is the right one.

Thanks @jess
