According to this, this, and this resource, one can call the Web.CreateAnonynousLink via the Rest API (in addition to CSOM). I am trying to get a working example going in Postman, but not having any luck.

Headers & Error: enter image description here

Body: enter image description here

I can successfully access the search API in another Postman tab for the same tenant, using the same Bearer token.

A few people who are having similar issues:

    To create the link, i think you dont need the If-Match and X-Http-Method parameters in the headers. Also, can you try with {'url': 'https://tenant/sites/pub2/Appointment Forms/Appointment form example.docx', 'isEditLink': true} as payload, do replace with your actual values though :) ? – Gautam Sheth Dec 29 '18 at 5:53
  • @GautamSheth - Yea, I tried that as well with the same results. Sorry, I should have updated the screenshot. And I have tried with/without the additional headers. They were just some troubleshooting attempts. – Tracy Dec 31 '18 at 14:22

  • Thank you for providing a screenshot example! I guess my confusion is why you need to include the user context at all (X-RequestDigest). According to Vesa's article, these Rest URL's should be available using the bearer token. Unless I am misunderstanding his guidance. blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vesku/2015/10/02/… (Scroll down to the bottom and look at the first FAQ). I am building a B2B proxy web API, so I won't have any user context. – Tracy Dec 31 '18 at 14:30
