Scripted REST APIs

aswinsiddaling2 · ‎03-01-2017

Hi,

I have created a scripted REST API where I am fetching the HTTP headers by using the below function

request.getHeader('header name').

But I want to fetch all the headers that we receive in the request. I tried to use request.headers as suggested in docs but it gives me [object Object]

Any suggestions?

Please try this, You should convert the Json to string

var header = request.headers;

var json = new JSON();

var headerStr = json.encode(header);

gs.log(headerStr);

Thanks

Hi Aswin,

You can get all the header values using response object.Try below code

var response = res.execute(); // res is restmessage object

var error = response.haveError();

var responseBody = response.getBody();

then parse the values using "JSON.parse(responseBody);"

Are you saying I will get the http headers by parsing response body?

Hi Aswin,

request.headers returns a json string of header values

You can try these lines to get individual header values

var headers = request.headers;
var acceptHeader = headers.Accept;

OR Loop

var header = request.headers;

for (var i in header){

gs.log(i + " - " + header[i],"Result");

}

where i = header label and header[i] is its value

Thanks

Headers.accept will give me the value for http header content-type and not

all headers.

For loop is going to run for number of headers available? Is there no way

to get all the headers without a loop?
