Create new account with API request

Post by sirinech »

I sent this request: http://localhost:9399/api/security/accounts
with the logon token and an xml file containing the necessary parameters just like it says in the API document provided by veeam : http://helpcenter.veeam.com/backup/70/rest/index.html

but I get the error code 500 internalServerError, I don't know why it's not working, can any one help me? the error response is the following:

Code: Select all

Hi Sirine,

Can you show us the XML file you're sending to the Web server? Also do you have a support ticket opened on this issue?

Thanks!

The XML looks valid, so I would open a support case and look how this API is called via WebEx session.
