Hi Saif,

As per the controller url, it looks you are on saas environment. So, customer1 is a default account name for on-prem controller. In your case, the account name should be 'biker201802020649579'. Please try with the below url and let us know if it helps.

curl --user user@biker201802020649579:pwd https://biker201802020649579.saas.appdynamics.com/controller/rest/applications?output=JSON

Thanks,

Yogesh
