Marketing Automation - You are not authorized to access this service

Lance Keay asked on October 31, 2015 14:33

When trying to access the steps of a Marketing Automation process, I get the following message while logged in as the Kentico Administrator:

You are not authorized to access this service

Here's an image: Image Text

Note also that the toolbar is missing. It shows for a split second, then hides and the above message shows.

I've been through the docs and tried altering the permissions of a role as noted here: https://docs.kentico.com/display/K82/Marketing+automation+walkthrough+-+Preparing+the+prerequisites

There aren't any messages in the Event Log about permission problems.

Obviously, as the Admin, I should have no limits to any permissions on the system. I'm guessing that this message is a generic one that's hiding the true error.

Does anyone have any idea of how I can further troubleshoot this problem?

Hi,

Have you configured WCF:

Perhaps the security message isn't Kentico but your system.

Greets,

David

That was it! Thanks David!

I just needed to update the Automation web.config.
