I created a simple procedure as follows:

**free
CTL-OPT NOMAIN PGMINFO(*PCML:*MODULE:*DCLCASE);

dcl-proc GetAllClaims export;
dcl-pi *n extproc(*dclcase);
store ZONED(8 : 0) const;
warehouse ZONED(8 : 0) const;
status varchar(100) const;

outBuffer varchar(1000);
end-pi;

outBuffer = 'store=' + %CHAR(store) + '; warehouse=' +

%CHAR(warehouse)

+ '; status=' + status;

return;
end-proc GetAllClaims;


I deployed with following attributes:

Procedure name: GetAllClaims
HTTP request method: GET
URI path template for method: {store: \d{1,3}}
HTTP response code output parameter: *NONE
HTTP header array output parameter: *NONE
HTTP header information: *NONE
Error response output parameter:
Allowed input media types: *ALL
Returned output media types: *JSON
Identifier for input wrapper element: GetAllClaimsInput
Identifier for input wrapper element: GetAllClaimsResult

Input parameter mappings:
Parameter name Data type Input source Identifier Default
Value
store zoned *PATH_PARAM store *NONE
warehouse zoned *QUERY_PARAM warehouse 0
status varchar *QUERY_PARAM status *NONE

And I did not have any problems. When I used URL:

http://host.ibm.com:10010/web/services/INJECT/123/?warehouse=444&status=up

https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?
, I got:

{"outBuffer":"store=123; warehouse=0; status="}

When I used

http://host.ibm.com:10010/web/services/INJECT/123/?warehouse=444 , I

got:

{"outBuffer":"store=123; warehouse=444; status="}

When I used

http://host.ibm.com:10010/web/services/INJECT/123/?warehouse=444&status=up
, I got:

{"outBuffer":"store=123; warehouse=444; status=up"}

If you are still having problems, then you should load latest IWS

PTF[1]

and it would be a good idea to load latest HTTP group PTF[2].

I was unsuccessful in what I was trying so let me post what I'm

trying

to

do so someone can comment on if I'm taking the correct approach.

As

stated

earlier I am using IWS.

I have an API /web/services/claims If I call this I ant return

all

claims. If I want all claims for an individual store I would call
/web/services/claims/188 which would return all claims for store

188.

But

I also want to be able to filter the results by warehouse and/or

status

so

I'm thinking these would be injected(?) into the query string
/web/services/claims/188/?whid=95&stat=C.
My prototype looks like this

dcl-proc GetAllClaims export;
dcl-pi *n extproc(*dclcase);
store like(ossushpTmp.o1cus#) const;
warehouse like(ossushpTmp.o1whid) const;
stat like(ossushpTmp.o1stat) const;
claimsHdrDs_length int(10);
claimsHdrDs likeds(claimsHdrDsTmp) dim(1000)

options(*varsize);

httpStatus int(10);
httpHeaders char(100) dim(10);
end-pi;

When I enter this in the wizard on Deploy New Service (step 9 of

9),

on

the

Methods tab I see
*Procedure name*:GetAllClaims
*HTTP **request method*:GET
*URI path template for method*:{store: \d{1,3}}
*HTTP response code output parameter*:httpStatus
*HTTP header array output parameter*:httpHeaders
*Allowed input media types*:*ALL
*Returned output media types*:*JSON
*Input parameter mappings:*
Parameter nameData typeInput sourceIdentifierDefault Value
store zoned *PATH_PARAM store *NONE
warehouse zoned *QUERY_PARAM warehouse 0
status char *QUERY_PARAM status '*NONE

This looks like what I think I'm trying to achieve.

i deploy the webservice and then call.

/web/services/claims HTTP ERROR 405 (is this because of the

path

template?)
/web/services/claims/0 All claims are returned for all stores.

(In

the

code if the store = 0 then store is not added to the prepared

statement)

/web/services/claims/188 Only claims for store 188 are

returned

which

is correct.
/web/services/claims/188/?warehouse=93 and
/web/services/claims/188/?warehouse=93&stat=C Both filters do not

work.
