I don't know if this is an oversight on my part so bear with me:

I want to use the REST API to access client information.

I have created a token with unrestricted access. When I use this token as authentication for other API calls, such as /api/Software/Packages or /api/Product/{partNumber}/{revision} it has no issue and returns all relevant information.

When i try /api/SystemManager/Clients I get a 403 response saying it is Forbidden.

Logged in as Administrator and using Swagger the API call returns all the correct information.

Have I messed up, or can user-created tokens simply not access information from /api/SystemManager/Clients without intervention from the WATS team?

  Hi Erijensen.

  The Headless role doesn't have the required permision turned on by default.

  Turn on the "Client overview (API)" - permssion for your role in question. 

  The permission is located under: Control Panel - System & Assets - System Manager
