I am working on POC for consuming rest service through ITXA. I am able to consume GET HTTP method rest service by creating type trees and map through OpenAPIImporter.

However, while consuming POST HTTP method rest service , I require to send json/xml data.

Can anyone please advise how to send json/xml data in request body to server.

I am executing below command from output card:
=VALID( GET( "HTTP" , "-URL http://10.166.120.76:8085/RestExampleTest/rest/json/post -METHOD POST -TV -HDR+ -TYPE application/json -STATUSLINE", PACKAGE(httpRequest)), LASTERRORMSG() )

Any help would be appreciated!

What error messages do you get back from the server?

What does the HTTP adapter trace show?

Thank you.

Consider the example at http://editor.swagger.io/

I used the menus on this page to download the JSON.  I imported this JSON using the OpenAPI importer, to create the map attached.  When executed, it inserts a pet "Killer" with a status of "available" into the data store.  Use the swagger-getPetByIdHttpCommand.url shortcut to confirm the existence of the pet before and after the map is executed.

Use the examples on the webpage to delete the pet when done.  (Or import the JSON to create another example to delete the pet).

I recommend you change the '48197' ID with one of your own to avoid confusion with other users of this publicly available system.

Thank you.

Hi Paul

We are on WTX 9.0.0.0 and thus don't have OpenAPI. I tried to copy/paste the JSON request object into a JSON flat file and imported to create a type tree in WTX. However not sure how I would build the output card and send in a parameter to invoke the RESTful webservice. Could you please help?
