I am attempting to utilize the Content API (C#) to update / insert records within Archer. I am able to successfully connect and read either all, contentapi/Procedures_ODA, or individual, contentapi/Procedures_ODA(TrackingID). However, the update attempt returns Error 400 - Bad Request.
Within my code, I read the record, deserialize it, then for testing I serialize it and attempt to update the same record without any data changes.
1. What URL should be utilized for the update - contentapi/Procedures_ODA or contentapi/Procedures_ODA(TrackingID)?
2. Should this be a HTTP Post request?
Update procedure -
public Procedure UpdateProcedure(string sessionToken, Procedure proc, out string response)
{
string appURL = Global.BaseURL() + "contentapi/Procedures_ODA";
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(appURL);
request.Accept = "application/json,text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8";
request.ContentType = "application/json";
request.Method = "POST";
request.Headers.Add(HttpRequestHeader.Authorization, "Archer session-id=" + sessionToken);
using (StreamWriter dataStream = new StreamWriter(request.GetRequestStream()))
{
StringBuilder json = new StringBuilder();
jss.Serialize(proc, json);
dataStream.Write(json.ToString());
dataStream.Flush();
}
var httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse(); <-- This returns Error 400 - Bad Request
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(httpResponse.GetResponseStream()))
{
response = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
}
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(response))
{
var objToken = jss.Deserialize<Procedure>(response);
return objToken;
}
return null;
}
