Scripted REST API - read request body of text/plain; charset=UTF-8

[rkgtech]

Hello. I am communicating with a legacy API that POSTS to my scripted REST API "content-type":"text/plain; charset=UTF-8".. I have tried nodejs code and I can override the payload with "application/json".. but the challenge is that I cannot override it in a scripted REST API. I am trying to print the body, but that's a null - JSON.stringify(request.body). I need to extract variables out of this payload. Does anyone know how I can handle this situation?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I need to create a Webservice API where input is: Sys ID of any record and output is: all *related* active records to that sys id. The relationships between the tables is maintained in Relationships under system definition.

Could you please guide me how to implement this? Sample code would be great.

Input: Sys ID of the record
Output: All *RELATED* active records from *VARIOUS* tables (in the following JSON format):
{
"result": [
{
"Sys ID": "5520267",
"CI Name": "Record 1",
"Table Name": "u_table_a"
},
{
"Sys ID": "5520367",
"CI Name": "Record 2",
"Table Name": "u_table_a"
},
{
"Sys ID": "8331210",
"CI Name": "Record 1",
"Table Name": "u_table_b"
},
{
"Sys ID": "8321210",
"CI Name": "Record 2",
"Table Name": "u_table_b"
},
{
"Sys ID": "3042006",
"CI Name": "Record 3",
"Table Name": "u_table_b"
},
{
"Sys ID": "4509847",
"CI Name": "Record 1",
"Table Name": ""u_table_c"
}
{
"Sys ID": "4509247",
"CI Name": "Record 2",
"Table Name": ""u_table_c"
}
]
}
