How to call Thingworx Rest API from Javascript

[aagrawal-31]

Hi,

I am making REST call from JavaScript to Thingworx Thing to execute service and getting HTTP Status Code 403 - Access to resource forbidden

User has execute service permission also.

var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();

xhttp.open("POST", "http://localhost:8080/Thingworx/Things/REST/ServiceDefinitions/service?appKey=5da8484d-2605-458d-af0a-be4d83f5baac", false);

xhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "text/html");

xhttp.withCredentials = true;

xhttp.send();

alert(xhttp.responseText);

Note: Thingworx version 7.4

Please suggest.
