API ORION ONLY WITH PORTAL WEB USER

What I need is to access data from SolarWinds Orion using Ansible, but I only have the web portal user account. I want to know how I can access it, or if it is mandatory for my company to provide me with a user account for this link: "https://{{ orion_host }}:17778/SolarWinds/InformationService/v3/Json/Query"

According to the documentation, it is not necessary to have another user account, but when I execute my playbook in Ansible, I do not have access.

It is mandatory to have an account to access the web console. The same account can be used to interact using API. Do note, that if you are accessing a SolarWinds Platform installation version 2023.1 or newer, then you will have to use :17774 in the URI instead of :17778

You can access with a Cert too, but not sure i'd reccomend that for this
