To access M3 Api inside Python Scripts in ION should I get a token also ?
I have not found a way to logon to the MT Cloud version externally with just a User - Password (this is working fine in 'On Prem') so I am afraid you do not have an option.If you find a way to authenticate with specific User (without downloading credentials), I would be VERY interested!
@antonio-caria Infor has a lot of restrictions on Python script, Check if you can use HTTP requests inside the python script in ION Desk. It's better to use ION API via connection points.
I am referring to external application execution.i.e. .Net application (C# or VB).Inside ION I'm not to worried about this, since I normally use Mongoose for Native apps.
if you want to call M3 API via c# please refer to the below examples.
I am aware of all of this.Question was: How can I logon to ION API externally using specific User/Password without first having to export a 'User specific' credentials file (xxx.ionapi)?
I don't think it is allowed to call API's within the Python scripts. You can configure external api's in ION API and use them in workflows. Then you can use this workflow in a dataflow.
