Summary
I cannot through curl command line in windows. I get the error:
403: You do not have the appropriate permissions
I can post with my user in the webb-app on this channel. I have tried several public channel that should work fine.
What am I doing wrong?
(Communicating with a Mattermost server version 4.2.0)
Steps to reproduce
curl -i -d “{“login_id”:“ulf.liljengren”,“password”:“pass”}” mattermost-server/api/v4/users/login
- Copy the Token into next command
curl -i -H “Authorization: Bearer zuhmha33tjnfud1qh1pdk9so3o” -X POST -d “{“username”:“ulf.liljengren”, “channel_id”:“dacu3”,“message”:“Hello World.”}” mattermost-server/api/v4/posts
Expected behavior
Positive response with a post in the wanted channel.
Observed behavior
Console output:
