Oracle OPAM REST API checkout method returns an http 409 code

Question

I am trying to use OPAM REST API

I've wrote several java methods that are working correctly (although some details took me some time to figure out), but now I am stuck in this one

https://host:port/opam/account/accountUID/checkout

which returns me a 409. Any clues?

I am following the same approach as described in this post (in the end of it there's an example on how to write a java HTTP request)

It seems to be related to the user at OPAM that I use to authenticate in the client, which seems not to be authorized to checkout the password. If it's the case, what permission shout I grant to this OPAM user in order to do so?

Answer 1

it seems that the privileged account must have explicit permissions for the user that my REST client is using to authenticate

this way, I can successfully check out the account using opam client
