Hi,

i am trying to implement your api into one of our spring application. When i send the json below i get a 403 error. However when i paste it into your sand box i am getting back expected result

                    "Password": "abc123"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

To send it i have written the below code. I am wondering if there is anything else that i need to do.

String url =END_POINT+"Client/Create";
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
String result = restTemplate.postForObject(url, param,String.class);

Hello @sampzz

The sandbox and the live API uses the same endpoints.

What is the endpoint you’re sending to in your live version (the full URL)?

3

hi

i am sending it to “https://api.quickfile.co.uk/1_2/Client/Create”

5

What is param here? If you’re just trying to pass the JSON as a plain string then you may need to wrap it in an HttpEntity so you can set the Content-Type to application/json rather than text/plain

6

the param is the json containing the payload and inside the payload i have the header and body. it is the same one as the model i sent initially. For testing purpose i am converting my response to string.

7

Do i need to put anything i my httpheader?

8

As far as I can see from what you’ve provided above (the URL and the JSON), it should work fine, although "@xmlns": "######", isn’t a requirement, so it may be worth removing this.

These two values are no longer required, so it may be worth removing these too.

I’m not familiar with the Spring Framework, but I recommend trying the change @ian_roberts also mentioned so the content is specifically defined as JSON.

9

What I meant is that if param is currently a java.lang.String then I suspect it will get sent by the restTemplate as Content-Type: text/plain, if you wrap it as HttpEntity then you can force it to use application/json:

HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>(param, headers);
String result = restTemplate.postForObject(url, entity, String.class);

To properly debug this I’d turn on wire logging so you can see in the log file exactly what is being sent and received over the HTTP connection.

10

thanks.
I am not geting 403 anymore. However i am now getting 400 and my current count is going up on quickfile even though i am getting 400.

11

At this point I’d definitely be looking at wire logging to get the exact error message associated with the 400 response.

It’s a bit hard to decipher because of the way the HTTPClient wire logging renders UTF-16 encoding into ASCII log messages, but this is the crucial bit, the body of the 400 response:

Converting this UTF-16 to readable text:

{"Errors":{"Error":["A client record with this name already exists"]}}

So your authentication is now working correctly and it’s a genuine error with the request you’re sending in. For future reference, there’s probably a way to get this info out of the HttpClientErrorException if you can catch it.

Any ideas. i am running out of ideas?

@sampzz - What @ian_roberts mentions above would be the issue:

The error is being returned to you as part of the response. In this case, a client already exists on your account with the name you’re trying to use. If you change the client name to something different (and not already existing on the account), it should work all OK for you.

thank i figured it out.
