I am trying to call the api.. It fails ... I run a powershell command like this: I even tried to put plain password... 

$AuthenticationCredential=[System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($credential.UserName+":"+$PasswordPlainText))
 
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $TeamCityUrl -UseBasicParsing -SessionVariable (get-variable -name "TCSessionVarName" -ValueOnly) -Method Get -Headers @{"Authorization"="Basic $AuthenticationCredential"}

Any guidance will be appreciated...

Thanks,

Hi Ebru,

The "Special Users" is not LDAP related, but it means that TeamCity has tried both to log in that user from the Special Users module (first message) or from the LDAP module (second message), and that it hasn't managed to find the user in any of those. Make sure that you have a user named "usr" available and that LDAP is properly configured: https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/TCD10/LDAP+Integration
