Scripted Rest Service Supported request formats

[dbaril]

I created a scripted rest service and set the Supported request formats to: application/json,application/xml,text/xml.  When I call the rest service with the body encoded as JSON and set the content-type header to application/json it works perfectly fine.  However If I format the body as XML with a header of application/xml I receive the following error message:

Status: 500 Internal Server Error

Message: com.glide.rest.util.RESTRuntimeException: Error Parsing input streamJSONObject[\"request\"] not found.

Is a scripted rest service not able to handle multiple formats?  Is there some other parameter I need to set?

Thanks,

Don

I realize this is 11 months old, but do you remember if you found a solution to this and what it was? This is literally the only result that shows up when I Google the error.

Actually, I found the problem shortly after posting my reply. I had a bad property name which didn't exist in the script for the web service.

// Bad version
gs.log(request.body.data);

// Fixed version
gs.log(request.body);

I don't know yet why request.body.data isn't there, but removing .data fixed my error.

It looks like the expected XML format must be:

<request>

   <entry>

   </entry>

    .

    .

    .

</request>

I think that error is indicating the parser couldn't find the <request> element in the body.
