  • 1.  Trouble accessing async object from RestAPI Prefer: respond-async

    Hi all,

    I'm having trouble interacting with the TM1 rest API in the following way. I'm hoping maybe there's some obvious that I'm missing :)

    Kick-off TI process

    public async static Task<string> RunProcessWithPolingAsync(TM1SharpConfig tm1, string processName, Dictionary<string, string>? parameters = null)
{
	var client = tm1.GetTM1RestClient();

	client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Prefer", "respond-async");

	var jsonBody = new StringBuilder();

	if (parameters != null)
	{
		jsonBody.Append("{\"Parameters\":[");

		parameters.AsEnumerable().ToList().ForEach(x =>
		{
			jsonBody.Append("{\"Name\":\"" + x.Key + "\", \"Value\":\"" + x.Value + "\"}");
		});

		jsonBody.Append("]}");
	}

	var jsonPayload = new StringContent(jsonBody.ToString(), new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));

	var response = await client.PostAsync(tm1.ServerHTTPSAddress + @"/api/v1/Processes('" + processName + "')/tm1.ExecuteWithReturn", jsonPayload);

	var asyncId = ParseAsyncId(response.Headers.Where(x => x.Key.Equals("Location")).First().Value.First());

	return await GetAsyncStatus(tm1, asyncId);
}

    Returns location header, parse out ID: 

    ../_async('OLTJUN4E4XFBAoV1fiSrQsmK9tn1U')

    Call to check status always 404s. Doesn't matter how long I wait or how many times I check.

    https://server:port/api/v1/_async('OLTJUN4E4XFBAoV1fiSrQsmK9tn1U')
Status Code: 404
Content: {"error":{"code":"278","message":"Resource '/api/v1/_async('OLTJUN4E4XFBAoV1fiSrQsmK9tn1U')' not found"}}

    Reference: https://community.ibm.com/community/user/businessanalytics/discussion/executewithreturn-asynchronously

    User Robert Gordy advised that he was able to resolve the issue with 404 / not found, but I don't see specific steps taken :(

    Solution: Make sure you're attempting to access the async object / endpoint from the same http session that you started the TI process on. Trying to access it from a different http session will always 404.
