Issue

  • I am unable to successfully download the openapi.json file using a web browser.
  • I get a 403 error when accessing the URL domain.com/o/headless-admin-user/v1.0/openapi.json

Environment

  • Liferay SaaS

Resolution

  • This behavior is expected because, in Liferay SaaS, access to OpenApi definitions from the browser is disabled.
  • However, it is still possible to access these OpenApi definitions using a token generated with OAuth2
