Question
Pega Robotics - Error trying to show fields in the Robotic Activity (Error Receiving Data From Pega)
I'm trying to show robotic's activity fields but every time i click to show i got the error: Error Receiving Data From Pega
I'd like to use it without authentication because the authentication checkbox in the Service Package API is turned off.
I can access through browser (without auth) using the URL http://127.0.0.1/nfe/api/v1/data/D_pxRuleResolvedRelevantRecords?ContextClass=xxx-yyy-Data-Customer&RecordType=Rule-Obj-Property
How to disable the authentication when retrieve robotic's activity fields?

Can you attach verbose Studio/Runtime logging of the problem for further review?

You need to have authentication enabled. Also disable TLS/SSL once authentication is enabled.
Is it mandatory to have authentication enabled?
Without auth enabled I can request by browser or API test page.
This is the response when I tested by browser or API test page:

Accepted Solution
This issue is due to a default HTTP Basic authentication configuration at Weblogic level. This configuration enforces or looks for Weblogic server authentication on seeing HTTP 401, meaning the user needs to pass Weblogic server credentials first. But user provides the Pega credentials on the first pop-up and therefore the pop-up keeps coming back.
The resolution to this was to use a Weblogic Console User ID and create an Operator in Pega with the same name/password as Weblogic in order to pass basic auth with Weblogic to then make it on to Pega Basic Auth.
I am facing the same issue. Currently I am using PEGA personal edition and I followed the steps in tomcat as you mentioned, but still getting the same error.
Please suggest!
I don't know what's the theory behind the issue, but it worked for me.
Quick Fix: Go to api Service package in Pega, uncheckRequires authentication Field and save it. Now try it once.
I did the below steps to fix this issue.
Steps for Robotics Studio
Step - 1 - Go to %AppData%\Roaming\OpenSpan\RuntimeConfig.xml
Step - 2 - Locate Robotics section
Step - 3 - Change allowedOrigins to "*" and SSL to "false". It should look like below.
<LocalApiService enabled="true" SSL="false" port="9443" allowedOrigins="*" JWTSecurity="false" PegaServerURL="https://MyPegaServer.com/RobotMgr" />
Steps for Platform
Step - 1 - Login Pega Platform with your application operator ID.
Step - 2 - In Left side penal go to Records >> Integration-Resources >> Service Package and open API
Step - 3 - Uncheck "Require TLS/SSL for REST services in this package" check box and save
Test it again. It should be able to fix the error msg.
