WSO2 Identity Server tenant requests no longer working

Question

I recently upgraded to version 6.1.0. I was previously using 5.11.0. When using the API to manage the tenants I was able to use the endpoint

https://localhost:9443/t/carbon.super/api/server/v1/tenants

while using Basic authentication. This worked perfectly fine until I upgraded and now my requests no longer work against this endpoint, I am receiving this message.

{
    "traceId": "911a1dac-a190-4afb-8919-65c8ed13e1ce",
    "code": 401,
    "description": "Authorization failure. Authorization information was invalid or missing from your request.",
    "message": "Unauthorized"
}

I also tested out version 6.0.0 and I am having the same problem. The documentation says Basic authentication should still work and there looks to be no differences in the endpoints documentation, even the curl it generates looks the same.

Answer 1

From IS 6.0.0 onwards, tenanted paths are restricted for tenant management APIs with the improvement[1]. The correct endpoint URL is,

https://localhost:9443/api/server/v1/tenants

Documentations for 6.0.0 and 6.1.0 versions should be updated with the above endpoint URL and will be tracked with this doc issue[2].
