The API is always unaythorized

[DenisVASI]

Hi.
I recently started using TrueNAS and I have the task of creating a target by API.

I send a POST to http://172.16.0.18/api/v2.0/iscsi/target
with header Authorization: Basic 1-asdcsadvnbhl...my key

I even tried converting Basic 1-asdcsadvnbhl...my key to base64 and nothing worked.

I always get a 401 unauthorized response

Please help me.

Try -H "Authorization: Bearer <your key>". See also https://www.truenas.com/community/t...keys-with-the-rest-api-2-0.86348/#post-598349.

Cool, it works, but I'm confused, how do I create a volume via api?

In fact, I want to run the wizard on the api

I assume from your context you mean iSCSI volume. There is no wizard for the API; the API assumes you know what you're doing.

and scroll down until you find the iSCSI sections.
