Hi, You need to check the documentation in the sample and make sure that you are using the proxy and that you have configured tenant, token, started the proxy.

The following steps are required before testing this sample widget.
- Aquire the server and port number for the ION API server to test with.
- Configure and start a localhost proxy with the ION API server and port number.
- Example: node proxy.js 8083 "yourservername" 443
- Example: SamplesStartIonApiProxy.cmd

- Set the ionApiUrl property in the configuration.json file to the URL of the localhost proxy.
- The configuration.json file is located in the root of the Widgets sample project by default.
- The URL should include the tenant to test with.
- Example: "ionApiUrl": "">localhost:8083/tenantid"

- Acquire an OAuth token string.
- Log on to Ming.le.
- Example: yourservername/.../
- Open a new tab in the same browser and navigate to the Grid SAML Session Provider OAuth resource
- The Grid must be version 2.0 or later with a SAML Session Provider configured for the same IFS as Ming.le.
- Example: yourservernameandport/.../oauth
- Copy the the OAuth token string from the browser window.

- If there are issues you can verify if your user has access to the grid by navigating to the Grid user page.
- Note that you must be logged on to Ming.le before doing this.
- Example: yourservernameandport/.../user

- Set the ionApiToken property in the configuration.json file to the OAuth token string.
- Example: "ionApiToken": "V9k5niTDR1kq6RuYlEq3N3HxGq8u"

- Set the devConfiguration attribute on the lm-page-container to the name of the configuration.json file
- Example:
<lm-page-container devWidget="infor.sample.ionapi.m3" devConfiguration="configuration.json"></lm-page-container>

URL doesn't look right, the "tenantname" should be "infor" for instance, and also make sure "localhost" is translating to the correct DNS in your case.

Thanks Rene for the help.

I change the URL to contain the proper tenant name. Also I changed inside the configuration.json to include the ION API URL and token.

However I get still get the same error. I have raised the issue on github.

Thanks

Hi all,

For those who getting error after configured the ionApiUrl and ionApiToken properties, please also check and ensure the ION API server and port number are supplied with correct value.

For my case the 443 is not the port number of my ION API server, after changing the port number correspondingly, I'm able to run the widget. You may get your ION API server name and port from ION API application on Infor OS > Infor M3 > Endpoints.

Sample: node proxy.js 8083 "yourIONAPIservername" "yourIONAPIserverport"

Hope these help

Regards,
YS
