I am getting a 401 error when i try to hit the push URL. I am using HTTP BASIC authentication with "Application Key" as username and "Application Master Secret"as password. I am using JAVA HttpsUrlConnection class. I dont know whats wrong with my code.
` URL url = new URL("https://go.urbanairship.com/api/push");
HttpsURLConnection connection = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection();
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.setUseCaches(false);
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type","application/json");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", Integer.toString(data.length()));
String authString = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy";
authString = Base64Coder.encodeString(authString);
connection.setRequestProperty("Authorization","Basic "+ authString);
OutputStreamWriter wr = new OutputStreamWriter(connection.getOutputStream());
wr.write(data);
wr.flush();
int responseCode = connection.getResponseCode();
//Get the response
String responseLine = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream())).readLine();`
Your authString should be composed of <application-key>:<application-master-secret>. Also your authstring may not be getting encoded properly. Try using Apache Commons Codec or ostermiller library to encode the authstring

I am trying to download attachments from Jira. I use /rest/api/2/attachment/{id} to get json response of the attachment. It has field "content" that is the attachment url. I use this url and construct HttpGet and execute to get response that always gives me html content asking for login. I am sending Basic Authorization in the httpGet header. Apparently this works for downloading .png files but not any other file types. I am using java spring rest to connect to Jira horizon.
Closeable httpclient = HttpClients.createDefault();
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(jira attachmenturl);
httpGet.setHeader("Authorization", "Basic <base64Credentials>);
CloseableHttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpGet)
The response for .txt, .jpeg, Microsoft documents is different from response that I get for .png files.
This works:
#GetMapping(value = "/getAttachment")
public String getAttachment(#RequestParam("id") String attachmentID) throws Exception {
Client client = Client.create();
WebResource webResource = client.resource(jiraBaseURLRest + "attachment/" +
attachmentID);
ClientResponse response = webResource.header("Authorization", "Basic " +
base64Creds).type("application/json")
.accept("application/json").get(ClientResponse.class);
String result = response.getEntity(String.class);
JSONObject jsonObj = new JSONObject(result);
System.out.println("JSON Object = "+jsonObj);
URL url = new URL(jsonObj.getString("content"));
Closeable httpclient = HttpClients.createDefault();
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url.toURI());
httpGet.setHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + base64Creds);
CloseableHttpResponse response1 = ((CloseableHttpClient) httpclient).execute(httpGet);
if(response1.getStatusLine().getStatusCode() == 200)
{
HttpEntity entity = response1.getEntity();
if (entity.isStreaming())
{
System.out.println("Streaming...");
byte data[] = EntityUtils.toByteArray(entity);
FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream(new File("D://pdf1.pdf"));
fout.write(data);
fout.close();
System.out.println("Done!!");
}
}
return "Success";
}
I am new to both Spring boot and rest calls.
I am trying to consume a rest service and I do not have any information about that rest API except URL. When I hit that URL from a browser I am getting a response as {key:value}. So, I assumed that it is a JSON response.
I am consuming it in spring boot as follows
restTemplate.getForObject(url, String.class) .
This is giving Invalid mime type "content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1": Invalid token character ':' in token "content-type: text"
I assume that this error is because response content type is set to text/plain but it is returning JSON format.
EDIT:
Tried this way but did not work.
HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.setAccept(Arrays.asList(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON));
HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>("parameters",headers);
ResponseEntity<String> result = restTemplate.exchange(url,HttpMethod.GET,
entity, String.class);
How to handle and solve it?
You might want to read about the request headers your REST API needs. Content-Type header specifies the media type of the request you're sending to the server. Because you're just getting data from the server you should set the Accept header to the kind of response you want i.e., Accept: application/json.
Unfortunately, you can't set headers using getForObject(). You could try this:
URL url = new URL("Enter the URL of the REST endpoint");
con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
con.setRequestMethod("GET");
con.setRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json");
if (con.getResponseCode() == HttpURLConnection.HTTP_OK) {
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()));
StringBuffer content = new StringBuffer();
String inputLine;
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
content.append(inputLine);
}
in.close();
}
I have created a custom POST api for getting login information in MCS. when i check in SOAPUI it works perfectly fine. the parameters passed are
1. header
Oracle-Mobile-Backend-Id: ********************
2. Authentocation
Username:****************
password: **************
and basic login info username and password as "User1" and "user1" respectively.
Step2:
when i call the API from MAF i am getting an error 400
the post method used is
public static Response callPost(String restURI, String jsonRequest) {
String responseJson = "";
Response response = new Response();
RestServiceAdapter restServiceAdapter = Model.createRestServiceAdapter();
restServiceAdapter.clearRequestProperties();
//restServiceAdapter.setConnectionName("MiddlewareAPI");
// restServiceAdapter.setConnectionName("");
restServiceAdapter.setRequestType(RestServiceAdapter.REQUEST_TYPE_POST);
restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json");
restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json; charset=UTF-8");
restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Oracle-Mobile-Backend-Id", "**********");
restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Domain", "mcsdem0001");
restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Username", "******");
restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Password", "*****");
//restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic "+new String(encodedBytes));
System.out.println("**** Authorization String ****=>"+new String(encodedBytes));
System.out.println("**** RestURI ******=>"+restURI);
System.out.println("**** jsonRequest ******=>"+jsonRequest);
restServiceAdapter.setRequestURI(restURI);
restServiceAdapter.setRetryLimit(0);
try {
responseJson = restServiceAdapter.send(jsonRequest);
int responseCode = restServiceAdapter.getResponseStatus();
response.setResponseCode(responseCode);
response.setResponseMessage(responseJson);
response.setHeader(restServiceAdapter.getResponseHeaders());
} catch (Exception e) {
int responseCode = restServiceAdapter.getResponseStatus();
response.setResponseCode(responseCode);
response.setResponseMessage(responseJson);
}
System.out.println("Response:" + responseJson);
return response;
}
Could anyone please tell me is there any error in the post method??
This can be due to the version conflict. Try to use HttpUrlConnection instead of RestServiceAdapter and let me know if it works.
actually this bit
restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Username", "******");
restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Password", "*****");
doesn't work because you attempt to pass username and password as a HTTP header. Instead it should be passed as you were trying here
restServiceAdapter.addRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic "+new String(encodedBytes));
However, these should not be encoded bytes but a base64 encoded string in the form
Basis (without the < abd >)
Note that user identity domains only need to be provided in multi-tenant environments. In MCS, the user domain is defined through the mobile backend you connect to.

Use the MAF MCS Utility library to make it allot easier.
The developer guide can be found here: http://download.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/maf/mafmcsutility-api-doc-082015.pdf
Example code:
MBEConfiguration mbeConfiguration =
new MBEConfiguration(
<mbe rest connection>,<mobileBackendId>,
<anonymous key string>,<application key string>,
MBEConfiguration.AuthenticationType.BASIC_AUTH);
mbeConfiguration.setEnableAnalytics(true);
mbeConfiguration.setLoggingEnabled(false)
mbeConfiguration.setMobileDeviceId(
DeviceManagerFactory.getDeviceManager().getName());
MBE mobileBackend = MBEManager.getManager().
createOrRenewMobileBackend(<mobile backend Id>, mbeConfiguration);
CustomAPI customApiProxy = mbe.getServiceProxyCustomApi();
MCSRequest request = new MCSRequest(mobileBackend.getMbeConfiguration());
request.setConnectionName(<Rest connection name>);
request.setRequestURI("/moile/custom/mockup/employees");
request.setHttpMethod(MCSRequest.HttpMethod.POST);
request.setPayload("{\"id\":\"1\"\"name\":\"nimphius\",\"firstName\":\"frank\"}");
request.setRetryLimit(0);
HashMap<String, String> headers = new HashMap<String, String>();
headers.put("Content-Type","application/json");
request.setHttpHeaders(headers);
MCSResponse response = customApiProxy .sendForStringResponse(request);
String jsonResponse = (String) response.getMessage();
In ALM 12 we have to explicity call "qcbin/rest/site-session" to get session.
When I GET call "/qcbin/rest/site-session" I receive the following:
"Set-Cookie=[BIGipServerALMAST330P-QC=rd100o00000000000000000000ffff0fe0dd74o8080; path=/, ]""
I extract the cookie as described here:
HP ALM 12 REST not returning QCSession cookie.
Instead of this RestConnector, our project is using RestTemplate from SpringFramework, so I did:
private HashMap getQCSession() throws Exception {
URL url = new URL("https://almxxxx.saas.hp.com/qcbin/rest/site-session?login-form-required=y");
HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
conn.setRequestMethod("POST");
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/xml");
conn.setRequestProperty("Accept", "application/xml");
conn.connect();
HashMap cookies = updateCookies(conn);
return cookies;
}
public HashMap updateCookies(HttpURLConnection conn) {
String cookie2 = conn.getHeaderField("Set-Cookie");
int equalIndex = cookie2.indexOf('=');
int semicolonIndex = cookie2.indexOf(';');
String cookieKey = cookie2.substring(0, equalIndex);
String cookieValue = cookie2.substring(equalIndex + 1, semicolonIndex);
HashMap cookies = new HashMap();
cookies.put(cookieKey, cookieValue);
System.out.println(cookies.toString());
return cookies;
}
To send the cookie in the GET call using the RestTemplate I followed the instructions from http://springinpractice.com/2012/04/08/sending-cookies-with-resttemplate/, so I did:
public <U extends Object> ResponseEntity<U> getFromURL(URI url, Class<U> responseBodyClass) throws Exception {
logger.info("GET na URL: {} esperando classe: {} no response", url, responseBodyClass);
HashMap cookie = this.getQCSession();
HttpHeaders requestHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
requestHeaders.add("Cookie", this.getQCSession().toString());
this.httpEntity = new HttpEntity(null, requestHeaders);
return super.exchange(url, HttpMethod.GET, this.httpEntity, responseBodyClass);
}
The requestHeaders content added to the HttpEntity (SpringFramework) is:
{Cookie=[{BIGipServerALMAST330P-QC=rd100o00000000000000000000ffff0fe0dd74o8080}]}
However I'm still getting "401 QCSession cookie missing".
I already tried to send in the GET call the JSESSIONID, with no success as well.
I appreciate any help.
Any clue?
I ran into this. As of ALM12 you need to create a session also.
I POST some XML or JSON to here "/authentication-point/alm-authenticate" to authenticate
Then collect the Set-Cookie header
I then POST to "/rest/site-session" with the cookie from the previous response.
I collect the session cookies from that response to use in my subsequent requests.
Hope that helps
I don't know, if it can help you but you are sending it with query param for UI authentication.
"POST .../rest/site-session?login-form-required=y"
I would suggest to POST it without query param
"POST .../rest/site-session"
Also the order of actions you should do before asking for QCSession token is:
1.Check whether you are authenticated
"GET .../rest/is-authenticated"
2.If not you'll get reference where to authenticate: WWW-Authenticate: LWSSO realm=".../authentication-point"
3.Send basic auth header to authentication point with added alm-authenticate at the end. Which returns you LWSSO_COOKIE_KEY.
"POST .../authentication-point/alm-authenticate"
Authentication: Basic BASE64{username:password}
4.Then you'll need to POST that LWSSO_COOKIE_KEY to site-session and ALM will return you QCSession key.
"POST .../rest/site-session"
"Cookie: LWSSO_COOKIE_KEY={cookie}; Path=/"
Hopefully I was able to help you.
If you still have problems, feel free to contact me.
I wrote the following code in Xamarin to connect the Web Server:
var request = WebRequest.Create( "http://srv21.n-software.de/authentication.json") as HttpWebRequest;
// request.Method = "GET";
request.Method = "POST";
request.Headers.Add("name", "demo");
request.Headers.Add("password", "demo");
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
HttpWebResponse Httpresponse = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
It connects to the web server and the web server gets the request for "authentication.json", but doesn't get the parameters of the header ("name" and "password").
What is wrong with my code?
Most likely your parameters need to be in the body of the POST request instead of in the headers. Alternatively you might try to use a GET request instead and provide the parameters through the URL, if your server supports it (i.e. http://srv21.n-software.de/authentication.json?name=demo&password=demo).
This worked for me
using System.Net.Http;
string URL = "http://www.here.com/api/postForm.php";
string DIRECT_POST_CONTENT_TYPE = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
string postData = "username=usernameValueHere&password=passwordValueHere");
StringContent content = new StringContent(postData, Encoding.UTF8, DIRECT_POST_CONTENT_TYPE);
HttpResponseMessage response = await client.PostAsync(DIRECT_GATEWAY_URL, content);
string result = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
