Hi Darren,
There seems to be an issue with the API you're using as POST doesn't work via Postman either, PUT does work though. Using the VERBOSE version of SQL functions is a better bet as you get a bit more information about what happened in the returned header.
select *
from table(systools.HTTPPUTCLOBVERBOSE('
https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1','', '')) x
;;
Tim.

Subject: SQL REST HTTPPOSTCLOB error 38000
I've identified a test REST API site that I can use to experiment with, before I start hammering the production site I have in mind. I'm able to use the HTTPGETCLOB, because the site doesn't really need a request body, but, for production, I'm going to need to pass a request, so, I figure I need to use HTTPPUTCLOB.
So, anyway, I'm using the following bit of code, and I'm getting an error back as follows. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
//**************************************************************
dcl-proc $TestAPI;
//
//**************************************************************
dcl-s URL varchar(2048);
dcl-s hdr varchar(10000);
dcl-s Request varchar(5000);
dcl-s Response varchar(5000);
//************
URL='
http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/1';
hdr=' ';
Request=' ';
exec sql set :Response=systools.HTTPPOSTCLOB(
:url,:hdr,:Request);
return;
end-proc;
