Xero Custom API Request Auth Failure

[kevin.boulware]

I am attempting create a custom API request to Xero using "Xero Custom API Request". The standard Xero API requests work fine with the same connection.
I am wondering if it has to do with the fact that there is no way to specify the Organization ID in the Custom API Request. All the others require this selection. I attempted to add the Organization as a parameter, but that did not work.

Hi @kevin.boulware,

Could you please share the API documentation and the cURL command for the endpoint you are trying to execute?

 

[kevin.boulware]

The API Documentation is located here: https://developer.xero.com/documentation/api/accounting/accounts for the specific request I am am performing.
I have not written this request in CURL as I was attempting to use the Pabbly interface to configure this request. A simple GET with no parameters to https://api.xero.com/api.xro/2.0/Accounts is all that I am trying to do, but the authentication is failing.

Hey @kevin.boulware

In your custom API request, you need to pass the `xero-tenant-id` for the organization in your header to ensure the authentication works correctly.

I have corrected it, and now the action step is successfully retrieving the account in the response.

Please review the Xero API reference and ensure to include the tenant ID in the header field.
