Good News Everybody!

The new search engine is LIVE!

Please report any problems to david (at) midrange.com.




Including the full debug log would be helpful...(censoring the stuff that's
secret of course)

But at minimum, show

I suspect that your Content-Type and Accept headers aren't what's
expected...

As Scott mentions, x-www-form-urlencoded doesn't make sense for a actual
REST service

Has anyone had success using a REST request to the Vertex Cloud for sales
tax calculations? If so, any advice? Vertex has been of little help, all
their IBM i connections are SOAP.

I'm attempting to use Scott's HTTPAPI version 1.39, O/S version V7R3M0.

The debug log shows I am making the connection, but I am receiving either
400 Bad Request or 415 Unsupported Media Type , depending on what
"Content-Type" is sent.
Testing the connection with Postman is successful.

Entire test program below:

http_debug(*on: '/tmp/debug.txt');

JSONsecurity = '+
{"client_id":"Rest-API-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",+
"client_secret":"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",+
"username":"xxxxxxxxxxxxxx",+
"password":"xxxxxxxxxx",+
"scope":"calc-rest-api",+
"grant_type":"password"}';

URL = 'https://auth.vertexsmb.com/identity/connect/token';

monitor;
resp= http_string('POST': url : JSONsecurity : 'x-www-form-urlencoded');
on-error;
httpcode = http_error();
endmon;
*inlr = *on;


Results from different "Content-Type" below
// 'x-www-form-urlencoded' 400 Bad Request (this
was successful in Postman)
// 'application/json' 415 Unsupported Media Type
// 'accept: text/json' 400 Bad Request
// 'text/json' 415 Unsupported Media Type
// 'text/plain' 415 Unsupported Media Type
// 'accept: text/plain' 400 Bad Request

Thanks
Ron
