Getting 401 Unauthorized error when using the Cloud API Export Document endpoint

Is there anything I need to enable for this to work? I put in the repoID and entryID for the Export Document endpoint found here:

https://api.laserfiche.com/repository/swagger/index.html#/Entries/Export%20document

But I'm getting a 401 Unauthorized error.

I've been using the following documentation as well:

https://developer.laserfiche.com/guide_exporting-documents.html

I was able to generate the access token and get the header information. But when running the next request, I seem to always get the 401 error.

Hi Brian,

I think I figured it out. One of the links in my initial description lists the endpoint as

https://api.laserfiche.com/repository/v1/Repositories/repoID/Entries/entryId/Laserfiche.Repository.Document.edoc

https://api.laserfiche.com/repository/v1-alpha/Repositories/repoID/Entries/entryID/Laserfiche.Repository.Document/edoc

It looks like 2nd one worked for me. Thank you!

After you get the authentication token, are you able to call any API endpoint successfully? That is, do you think there's a problem with Export specifically, or could it be with the way you are authenticating in general?
