accessing authenticated third party(for eg : pityney bowes) target end point URL

[#1]

Trying to use authenticated target end point url(for eg:pityney bowes which is having third party authentication).we have apigee account but pityney bowes is having its own authetication. How to over come this?

we are using this url as target end point to fetch details.

https://pitney-bowes-geoenhancement-service-basic.run.aws-usw02-pr.ice.predix.io/location-intelligen...

NOTE: we already tried using same apigee's username and password and signed up in pitney bowes with same.and used that target end point .but it is not working.

ok, I think you are trying to configure an Apigee Edge proxy to send authentication information to a Target. In your case that target is a Pitney-Bowes service.

1. You said "it's not working", and asked "how to overcome this?"

ok, "it's not working" is not enough information. When you ask questions on the community here, you need to be clear about:

• what specifically you are doing
• what you expect to see. (200 status? a specific payload? etc)
• what you are actually seeing.

Normally, sending authentication information to a target can be accomplished with AssignMessage policy, in which you set the required header or headers to the required values. Have you done this?

2. Have you tried invoking the Pitney Bowes service directly, with the credentials you have for Pitney Bowes, without any Apigee Edge in the picture? What are the results of that trial? Show the curl command or the Postman request.
