NTLM use credentials from windows, so I add a domain windows credential with persistence of session before call the WS.
Then, when I call the WS, I do not select authentication type because it will be taken from windows credential previously created.

I do not know if there is a better solution, but this works for me. I hope it works for you too.

I found a solution in code: You can set on IApiAccessor.Configuration.ApiClient.RestClient.Authenticator = new NtlmAuthenticator()

And then call the WS VIA code too or VIA activity http request?

We call everything in c# code.

Could you share you code please? I don’t have much experience with C# code and I’m a little bit lost.

Thanks in advance.
