can't create a catalog item using REST API

[Chandra31]

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar I'm trying to submit a request using Postman with the API and payload below, but it's generating a cart ID instead of a request number. I've followed your instructions in the old post.

Post : https://dev.service-now.com/api/sn_sc/servicecatalog/items/e8638d3487636250222f4226cebb35d7/order_no...

Hi @Chandra31 ,

You can try like this

1. POST Method:

POST https://instancename.service-now.com/api/sn_sc/servicecatalog/items/{sys_id}/order_now

2. Path parameters

sys_id : 'sys_id_of_catalog_item'

3. Request Body

{
  "sysparm_quantity": "1",
  "variables": { // add varibles list here
    "variable_name_1": "value_1",
    "variable_name_2": "value_2"
  }
 
}

sample response body will be like this 

{
  "result": {
    "sys_id": "69026c96c3b33210c7311412b40131b7",
    "number": "REQ0010172",
    "request_number": "REQ0010172",
    "parent_id": null,
    "request_id": "69026c96c3b33210c7311412b40131b7",
    "parent_table": "task",
    "table": "sc_request"
  }
}

Hi @Chandra31 ,

can you try this 

API endpoint : POST 

https://instancename.service-now.com/api/sn_sc/servicecatalog/items/:sys_id/order_now

and then define the path value pass the sys_id.

then try to trigger the API.

Hi @Chandra31 ,

did you define the path value pass the sys_id?.
