Problem in calling POST Service form XSJS

[Former Member]

Hello All,
I'm trying to call a POST REST API from my xsjs service but I'm getting the following error - HttpClient.getResponse: Can't get the response from the server: no response is pending...you have to issue a request() first

Given below is my destination and xsjs file

http_dest

host = "https://l5471-iflmap.hcisbp.us2.hana.ondemand.com"; pathPrefix = "/http"; port = 467; proxyType = http; proxyHost = "proxy"; proxyPort = 8080; authType = basic; useSSL = false; sslHostCheck = false;

Test.xsjs

try{ var destination; var client;

destination = $.net.http.readDestination("DFT.RulesProject","http_dest");

client = new $.net.http.Client();

var request = new $.net.http.Request($.net.http.POST,"/commonemail");

request.headers.set("Content-Type" , "application/json");

request.headers.set("Accept" , "application/json");

request.setBody(JSON.stringify( { "mailParam":{ "emailBody": "emailBody", "emailSubject": "emailSubject", "to": "shubham.apatidar@incture.com" }}));

client.request(request, destination);

$.response.setBody(JSON.stringify( {

"Success": client.getResponse().status, "Code" : client.getResponse() } ));

}

catch(e){ $.response.status = $.net.http.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR; $.response.setBody(e.message ); }

In your host you have HTTPS://. You shouldn't put the protocol there but only the hostname. Also if you have https really as part of the target then why do you have useSSL = false?

Hello Thomas,

I've changed useSSL= true, imported the certificate, changed the port to 433 and removed the HTTPS:// from hostname. Still I'm getting the below error-

HttpClient.getResponse: Can't get the response from the server: no response is pending...you have to issue a request() first

Perhaps the problem is that you are calling getResponse twice:

client.getResponse().status, "Code" : client.getResponse()

I always call this once and put the return object into a variable. Then get the status and body from it.

Thanks, Thomas.

I'm getting status 401 now.

That's progress. I don't see any authentication information in your destination and 401 is unauthorized, so I guess you know where to look next.

I've given all the authentication credentials in XS Admin and have imported the SSL certificate but still I', facing these issue.

Hi All,

What if in case we are calling an API hosted on Cloud Foundry. What should be the post we need to configure in Destination in xsjs?
