Issue with rest api, HTTP get all passed, PUT/POST failed

[Yan Bi]

I just use apache http client to access gerrit via rest api. All the http method with get, e.g. query changes, list projects work fine. But the methods with put/post failed with error "Status:HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden". Any idea? Thanks!

Make sure you are sending authenticated requests by adding /a/ in the URL.  Also make sure you are authenticating with the HTTP username and password, not your SSH password.

Refer to the documentation here:
