Infor LN & Baan Tips & Tricks for TECHNOLOGY: Authorization and Security - LN REST APIs

In typical LN REST API integrations, permissions and authorizations are not implemented or rarely used. To ensure smooth data exchange and avoid errors, it is recommended to disable the authorization and security settings.

Recommendation:

• In the Authorization and Security Parameters session (tcsec0100m000):

  • Clear the Authorization and Security Enabled check box.

  • Clear all check boxes under Authorization Enable for on the Enabling tab.

Why This Matters:

• Enabling authorization and security without proper setup can lead to errors and blocked transactions during integration.

• For example, work center permissions may interfere with:

  • Creating new shifts

  • Booking machine hours

  • Other automated data operations via the API

Disabling these settings helps prevent disruptions in API-based integrations and simplifies the configuration process.
