My requirement is to accept xml data file that may be gziped in HTTPS POST request and request may be chunked.
Request body WILL have the type of application/.xml.
I am using Postman to make request and java spring to write the controller and rest of the api code.
My questions is how will my request will look like, either it will be form data with xml file in input or raw body with xml selected in postman.
I am finding it hard to make a curl for it.
Here is the example request requirement:
I am using Postman to fetch data from my server and when I use a REST call it is a GET request but when I use a GraphQL API call, it needs to be a POST request. Why is it so?
The GraphQL spec is itself transport-agnostic, however the convention adopted by the community has been to utilize POST requests. As pointed out in the comments, some libraries support GET requests. However, when doing so, the query has to be sent as a URL query parameter since GET requests can't have bodies. This can be problematic with bigger queries since you can easily hit a 414 URI Too Long status on certain servers.
The best practice is to always utilize POST requests with a application/json Content-Type.
I setup a GET scripted rest API. However, when I try to send a GET request with a body, ServiceNow (before it hits my code) complains that GET is not allowed to have a body.
Is there a way to disable this restriction? For now as a temporary workaround, I converted the request into a POST. However, this request does not change any state, so I believe it should be a GET. The request only searches for existing items.
GET is used without body, any configuration of a GET is in the URL and header. A query URL looks like this:
https://instance.service-now.com/api/now/table/problem?sysparm_query=active=true^ORDERBYnumber^ORDERBYDESCcategory&sysparm_limit=1
See the documentation here:
https://developer.servicenow.com/app.do#!/rest_api_doc?v=madrid&id=r_TableAPI-GET
Generally it's OK to use a POST to get data, graphQL does this for example, but i think SNOW is configured for GETs only.
I am trying to make a HTTPS POST call in mulesoft to an external API. I had read in the mulesoft documentation and also in other posts that in order to send the request body, a map has to be prepared.
Hence, i am using the "Set-Payload" to prepare a map.
Eg: #[{'key':'value'}]
When I am using the logger to display it, it prints a map (as expected).
But when the POST call is being made, i am receiving the following error:
Response code 503 mapped as failure. Message payload is of type: BufferInputStream
Payload : org.glassfish.grizzly.utils.BufferInputStream#3f8f77a
Could anyone let me know where am i going wrong?
Thanks in Advance.
The server you're trying to call is returning status 503. Have you tried calling the external API using other client SOAP/Postman/Curl?

You should set proper mimetype for muleMessage and set the http POST method, then it should work.
While posting the data male sure how your http is expecting the input. What ever the transformations you want to make before posting do it, finally when posting the data to http cross check your data type with the data in the server your are trying to send. Both needs to match. Then it work.
I generally try to Isolate HTTP interaction problems into two parts. One is related to request itself for e.g. URL,Method,Headers,Payload,MimeType and other should be related to transport and network interaction with Server itself. To better view the information for both of the above details use a htt[ proxy/debugger [for. e.g. Fiddler] around the traffic flowing while you make a request. This will throw more light on the stuff hindering you while making this call successfully.
You can try any of the below sugestions-:
Set payload as map, mention MIME Type as application/json and then use json to object transformer (with return class as java.util.HashMap).
Set payload as simple string. This could help.
Status code 503 implies that the server is currently unable to handle the request due to a temporary overloading or maintenance of the server. The implication is that this is a temporary condition which will be alleviated after some delay.
Please try resending the message or hit the API with Postman.
It looks like you need to change the port in the request-config to 443 since you're using HTTPS.
<http:request-config name="HTTP_Request_Configuration" protocol="HTTPS" host="jiratst.murex.com" port="443" doc:name="HTTP Request Configuration" basePath="/rest/api/2/project">
try using input {'key':'value'} in set payload instead of Array.
I have an application for load testing. I am using JMeter for this purpose. I have added CSV Data Set Config to the While Controller where former reads URL from a csv file. Also, I have added a HTTP request sampler inside the controller.
Now, I have both get and post requests . In addition to that, I have to send file data with few http post requests. Is there a way so that jmeter can decide http request type automatically and create a request accordingly?
Should I create separate While Controller for both GET and POST requests?
You could add method field (post,get) and use an
IfController to eithet call a post or get depending on method value.
