Create TopDesk Change Request from Flow

Hi all, 

I'm trying to build a Flow to create a change request in TopDesk. 

 

I started with a custom connector and tried using this documentation - specifically the operatorChanges API.

I edited the swagger file so and I have the authentication working, I think. but when I run the Flow (manually trigger, then run the connector, no other steps) it fails at the connector and says:
"This page is not available for you. You might have followed an old or incorrect link, or you might not have permissions to view the content."

Has anyone successfully used a TopDesk API in Flow? If so am I missing something, can anyone give me any advice?

 

Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous,

 

I have no subscription to TopDesk, so there is no way to test it. Here is a post talked about TopDesk API, hope it could help you something:

Thank you so much @v-litu-msft , I checked out the post but it's not the same issue. I'm getting like authentication / page not available errors and I can't get past it. 

 

Thanks though!

What operator command are you trying?  Assume you have given the api account in TD sys admin rights?

I tried a few different ones including:

operatorChanges (Get AND Post)

requesterChanges (Get)

operators (Get)

The last one seemed to sort of work - it pumped out a bunch of IDs, but no additional data and I couldn't verify if it was correct beacuse I can't see the IDs in TopDesk 
I am not positive that the API account has Sys Admin rights - I don't think so. I'm not tenant admin for the TopDesk enviro though so I will check. Is that the level that's definitely needed?

I am just using an API login for the authentication. 

 

API will need elevated rights to patch/post data for sure.  Are you trying to create tickets and add updates etc?

That's the end goal yes, but I am running into 404 errors even with the GET requests. 

So is TD on-prem?  If yes I assume you have created a gateway?  I guess yes as you said you did get back some ID's.  I will try and send you my Create TD swagger file that maybe can assist you.

I believe it is not on-prem, will confirm. So today I tried with changeStatuses command and I tested it in:
Flow - same error

Postman - no error, I got the results. I authenticated the exact same way in both tools...so this seems like a Flow-specific issue? My swagger file is the simplest thing on earth, only contains the login credentials...

Can you post the file up here?

Hi @Anonymous , I am also working on connecting several of the TOPdesk API's to my environment.

 

One thing that I struggled with is that custom connectors are actually considered a premium function. You are allowed to create custom connectors, but they will fail to run if you don't have the proper licensing. Therefore you either need a additional Power Automate license on top of your Office 365 license. Or work from a Power Apps Community Plan. My advice is to check if you are working in the default environment or not, and perhaps use your personal environment instead.

 

As mentioned by @ Taylope1, posting your swagger input would help. Or posting the apiDefinitions.json and apiProperties.json (using the Microsoft Power Platform Connectors CLI | Microsoft Docs).
