Has anyone used the REST "DELETE' method for outbound REST Messaging?

[rickymanuel]

The field 'Content' was not visible on the form but I updated the UI Policy to show the content so i can use the JSON body.  However, when I tried to test my DELETE method and hardcoding the values on my JSON body I get an error:  

 {"errors":{"":["A non-empty request body is required."]},"title":"One or more validation errors occurred.","status":400,"traceId":"|f7ba0e33b142d84a91d2e7f57a7cafb5.40b1f8fb_"}.   

If I run my DELETE in Postman it works.

Hi A.R.G.  

Here is my script.  I receive an error message

var r = new sn_ws.RESTMessageV2('Polaris', 'retrieveOauthToken');

var response = r.execute();
var responseBody = response.getBody();
var parseBody = JSON.parse(responseBody)
var httpStatus = response.getStatusCode();
var token = parseBody.access_token;
 
gs.info("AccessToken:" + token);
var url = "https://mycompany.net/api/support/user/adjuster/";
var adjusterId = "318017";
var endPnt = url + adjusterId;

var restMessage = new sn_ws.RESTMessageV2();
restMessage.setHttpMethod("delete");
restMessage.setEndpoint(endPnt);
restMessage.setMIDServer("MID_SERVER_NAME");
restMessage.setRequestHeader("Authorization", "Bearer " + token);
restMessage.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
restMessage.setRequestBody('{"adjusterId":"318017","bugTicket":"INC999999","updateByUserName":"ricky_manuel@mycompany.net"}');                             

// Execute REST API Call
var response1 = restMessage.execute();
response1.waitForResponse(60);
var resBody = response1.getBody();
var parseBody1 = JSON.stringify(resBody);
var httpStatus1 = response1.getStatusCode();
var str_code = '';


if (httpStatus1 > '199' && httpStatus1 < '301'){
    str_code = 'Complete - '+ httpStatus1 + '\n'+'\n';
    str_code = str_code + ' ' + parseBody1 + '\n';
	} else {
        str_code = 'Complete but Not Successful - '+ httpStatus1 + '\n'+'\n';
        str_code = str_code + ' ' + parseBody1 + '\n';
       // str_code = str_code + 'Bug Ticket: ' + bugTicket;
        }

gs.print(str_code);

Hi Ricky,

you are setting the mid server name properly; give exact name of the mid server there

also what error message you are getting? can you share it?

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks

Hi Ricky,

Did you check with the 3rd party Team what does the error mean? any value not sent from your side.

error 400 means bad request so something is not sent properly in your request

Did you get sample request and response body from them so that you can compare

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks
