    Hi everyone,

    I have a small problem with a POST call that I’m trying to make.

    I retrieve my CSRF token from my On-Premise SAP system via a GET call in the header. This works perfectly in Simplifier when I include configuration/http/verbosity/headers = Verbose in the advanced input.

    Next, I manually pass the retrieved token in the header of a POST call in Simplifer, as it is required.

    However, I always receive the following error message for my POST calls:
    “The Http request was not successful due to the client error: [403: Forbidden – The request was a legal request, but the server is refusing to respond to it.] Response: CSRF token validation failed”

    The strange thing is, when I execute the same POST call via Postman, everything works fine.

    I hope someone can help me with this issue!

    Hi Jan,

    please see this Knowledgebase Article on CSRF Token Usage

    REST: Use a CSRF Token and a Cookie to authorize Requests

    Hope this helps
