You should try these for this problem in api:-

1)change the value in the file /app/code/core/Mage/Api2/Model/Auth.php, change the value of: DEFAULT_USER_TYPE = 'guest' to DEFAULT_USER_TYPE = 'admin'.

2)change the value in the file /app/code/core/Mage/Api2/Model/Auth/Adapter.php, change this line from return (object) array('type' => Mage_Api2_Model_Auth::DEFAULT_USER_TYPE, 'id' => null); to this: return (object) array('type' => Mage_Api2_Model_Auth::DEFAULT_USER_TYPE, 'id' => '1'); (note:only change null to '1').

3)restart your server(for apache run this command: sudo service apache2 restart). i hope these steps will solve your 403 access denied problem.
