API permission error 403
I'm trying to migrate data from WHD using an online migration tool via usrname & AIP key method, but keeping getting permission error 403. I made the WHD URL publicly accessible via specific IPs and ensure I use WHD Admin account for the API but I still get 403 error. Any suggestions?
Task Elements

Newer versions of macOS for WHD Server?
The longstanding system requirements (even the latest) still mention macOS 12.x (Montery) as the latest supported macOS, but that version went unsupported by Apple in September 2024, over a year ago. However, I was heartened by the release notes for WHD 2026.1 where it says that NextGen WHD is "Not supported for Sonoma,…
Where can we find more information on Nextgen?
I see on today's update that the NextGen framework is available. I would like to see more documentation on it, but my Google-fu is failing me. We are using SAML, so I can't upgrade to it just yet. Any idea on a timeframe for that availability?
