java.lang.Exception - Invalid token

MikeButt — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 06:04:41 GMT

When attempting to create a portal user we are receiving an error message:

{
    "error": {
        "code": 500,
        "message": "java.lang.Exception: The server at '<SERVER URL>' returned an error. Invalid token. []",
        "details": null
    }
}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I saw this message but adding the referer didn't make a difference. The set up is exactly the same except we are using 10.6.

            payload["client"] = "referer"
            payload["referer"] = self.portal_url

If I don't use the referer then I get error 498 invalid token.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
