Cloud orchestrator Authentication from Jenkins not working

[nikhilbidwai]

Hi All, I’m trying to setup Jenkins, as of now -

1. Pulling the code from Git repo - Successful
2. Building package - Successful
3. Deploying package to UiPath - FAILED.

Getting below error:

Can you please let me know whats wrong here.

I have configured bellw in Jenkin Post-build - UiPath Deploy Section:

Orchastraor Address: UiPath
Orchstrator Tenant: NikhilDefault

I remember testing this configuration with the platform orchestrator and it did worked for me. However in my case orchestrator url was just ‘https://platform.uipath.com’. Did you try this?

Thanks,

@Rammohan91 , thanks for your reply. Yes I tried without tenant name in orchestrator but no luck. Did you use any AuthToken configuration anywhere? Because error also does mention about AuthToken error

Add-UiPathPackage : An authentication token is required. Specify a value for -AuthToken on the cmdlet or call

Can anyone please advise if https://platform.uipath.com/Api/Account/Authenticate API is still supported for username/password login or deprecated?

[Rammohan91 (Rammohan Banda)]

Hi @nikhilbidwai,

Yes i believe its deprecated now. However ‘api/account/authenticate’ endpoint still works for me.

Here is an article for the same,

Consuming APIs with the new Cloud Orchestrator

Hi @UtkarshTrehan One crucial thing is that you should no longer use the authenticate endpoint. You should use the method of authenticating from the Cloud API guide and then use the access_token generated from those activities to authenticate your calls. See my post here with a sample project and sample calls you can easily make

Did you use any AuthToken configuration anywhere?

Nope. I didn’t had to use any AuthToken for it.

Thanks,
Rammohan B.

@Rammohan91 Thanks for your reply!
You mentioned that ‘api/account/authenticate’ endpoint is working for you, is it working through postman? because when I tried POST https://platform.uipath.com/api/account/authenticate it doesnt work for me with my credentials.
