in WebSocket API

Hi, I have received my machine ID and have reset my password. However when I try to connect from my terminal its failing to establish connection.

If I try to connect using Chrome , its failing with Authentication failed : access denied message.

Please can you help ?

    Hi @arif.sayed

    Looking at the error, I don't believe this is a machine ID issue as the connection is not being established.

    Have you tried specifying proxy in the example code when it uses the requests library i.e. the get and post calls?

    Hi @arif.sayed

    Please provide additional details to help diagnose the issue.

    I assume you are trying to connect to ERT in Cloud using websocket - is this correct?

    Have you worked through the Quick Start section for ERT in Cloud? Did that work ok?

    If so,

    1. how are you attempting to connect from your terminal?
    2. you mention Chrome, so what exactly are you using in Chrome? Are you using the Try It Now documentation?
    3. Please provide the Authentication request / JSON messages you are sending to the server - you can comment out the password.
    4. If running an example please provide fuller output from the example

    Hi Umer,

    I am connecting from my local machine. For the username , I am using the machine ID allocated to me and the password I have reset.

    To ensure , there is nothing blocking on my network, I was testing this through chrome and network looks fine unless I need to figure out somehow to use my proxy when running this example.

    However I am still not sure if my account (machine ID ) is active to use to test the example below ?

    Hi Umer,

    I have tried again now and still no sign of getting the token or data.It seems we are establishing the connection, but there is still something missing ?
