This is the message I get when I am trying to get the token data using web.contents query from "VMware vRealize Automation API":
There was an error when processing the data in the dataset.
Please try again later or contact support. If you contact support, please provide these details.
Data source error
{"error":{"code":"ModelRefresh_ShortMessage_ProcessingError","pbi.error":{"code":"ModelRefresh_ShortMessage_ProcessingError","parameters":
{},"details":[{"code":"Message","detail":{"type":1,"value":"Web.Contents failed to get contents from 'https://xxxxxxxxx.com/identity/api/tokens'
(404): Not Found"}}],"exceptionCulprit":1}}}
Table: GetToken.
The url passed to the first parameter of Web.Contents (authUrl = "https://xxxxxxxxx.com/identity/api/tokens") is accessible but always return the HTTP ERROR 405, probably
because this API uses a a JSON object in the request body parameter with the users credentials to obtain the Response.
API
My query
The main issues:
Your API uses HTTP POST verses GET, so you need to set Options[Content]
You can get refresh errors on the service unless you use Options[RelativePath]
You can "opt-in" to handling errors for specific HTTP Status codes, combined with Value.MetaData you get more detailed error messages.
Let it generate JSON for you from records and lists by using Query or Content parameters see: docs: Web.Contents
This is equivalent to your curl POST request
let
BaseUrl = "https://www.example.com",
Options = [
RelativePath = "/identity/api/tokens",
Headers = [
Accept="application/json"
],
Content = [
username = "username",
password = "password",
tenant = "tenant"
],
ManualStatusHandling = {400, 405}
],
// wrap 'Response' in 'Binary.Buffer' if you are using it multiple times
response = Web.Contents(BaseUrl, Options),
buffered = Binary.Buffer(response),
response_metadata = Value.Metadata(response),
status_code = response_metadata[Response.Status],
from_json = Json.Document(final_result)
in
from_json

When testing some api, the token need to be generated each 3min and I would like to do the refresh automatically, I did the following
I have a collection "CollectionGetter" which contain some requests
from "CollectionGetter" collection :
I've added the following script in "Tests" tab
var jsonData = pm.response.json();
pm.environment.set('getToken', jsonData.access_token);
on authorozation tab,set :
Type = Bearer token
Token {{getToken}}
then selected a request under CollectionGetter :
getAccount (GET url/api/account)
Auth = inherit autho from parent
and sent it
=> got a 401 JSONError: No data, empty input at 1:1
Any help ?
is my configuration correct
I am using google app script to Call UPS api and generate shipping label. However the API response is truncated and i am unable to decode base64 encoded image which is part of the JSON response object as it is truncated.
I am also not getting any truncation error messages or responses from the UPS servers, neither is google apps script throwing an error
Have contacted UPS support with the JSON request and it seems to works fine at their end.
// Here is the code for API call.
function getLabel() {
var userName = "myUPS_username";
var password = "*********";
var accessKey = "my_access_key";
var transId = "Trans123";
var transactionSrc = "upstest";
var url = "https://wwwcie.ups.com/ship/v1807/shipments";
var header = {
'AccessLicenseNumber' : accessKey,
'password' : password,
'transId' : transId,
'transactionsrc' : transactionSrc,
'username' : userName
};
// parameters for url fetch
var params = {
'method': 'GET',
'contentType': 'application/json',
'headers': header,
'payload' : JSON.stringify(payload)
};
// call the UPS Shipment API
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, params);
}
Not including the JSON payload here
Answer:
UrlFetchApp() has functionality and response limitations, including POST and response sizes.
More Information:
As per the Apps Script Documentation, URL Fetch has Limitations which are implemented in the methods themselves. The limitations are as follows:
URL Fetch response size: 50MB/call
URL Fetch headers: 100/call
URL Fetch header size: 8kB/call
URL Fetch POST size: 50MB/call
URL Fetch URL length: 2kB/call
Unfortunately, there is no way to get around this.
Feature Request:
There is a Feature Request on Google's Issue Tracker requesting the increase of the UrlFetch response size limit already. This Feature Request can be found here, which you can give a star (☆) in the top left to let Google know more people wish for this request. There is already a response from them saying 'We'll consider raising the quota if there is enough interest from the developer community.', so letting them know this is a wanted feature is a good way to go.

I am trying to make a simplified version of test report where I am generating a single HTML file report containing only assertion and error response message when there is any (attempting to not publish all the logs and steps).
I understand that we have hooks in karate. However I have looked for karate objects in the github but unable to found any objects where I can extract the response from (to be passed to the js function called on hook)
What I am doing right now is this:
Config:
//karate-config.js
karate.configure('afterScenario', karate.call('classpath:hooks.js'));
Hook:
//hooks.js
//Looking on how to extract the response and log it here
function(){
var info = karate.tags;
karate.log('Tags', info);
}
Am I missing anything on the karate objects? Or this should be achieved in another way?
Thanks a lot!
Try this:
var response = karate.get('response');
EDIT better example:
Background:
* configure afterScenario = function(){ karate.log('***', karate.get("response.headers['X-Karate']")) }
Scenario:
Given url 'http://httpbin.org'
And path 'headers'
And header X-Karate = 'test'
When method get
# this will fail
Then status 400
I have tried with both karate.get('response') and response directly, and both work. If you use karate.call() pass the response as a parameter.
I have a REST request that respond with the following:
{
"access_token": "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsIng1dCI6IlQwWE8xNnAtMmZzMWxremV5",
"expires_in": 2592000,
"token_type": "Bearer"
}
I want to take the value of access_token, store it in a property and reuse it for two subsequent requests.
Following some tutorial here, when running the request that obtains the access_token I get a:
error parsing target property: error unexpected element CDATA
But why?
There is no CDATA in my raw response.
If you've problems using transfer properties step to get the JSON value from your response, you can use a groovy test step to achieve your goal.
So create a groovy test step to parse your response, get your value and set it as a property (for example at testCase level) with the follow code:
import groovy.json.JsonSlurper
// get response using the name of your test step
def response = context.expand('${REST Test Request#Response}')
// parse response
def jsonResp = new JsonSlurper().parseText(response)
// get the token an set as a property in the testCase
testRunner.testCase.setPropertyValue('access_token',jsonResp.access_token)
Then in the other testSteps (REST or SOAP...) you can use the follow code to get the access_token value you set in the testCase:
${#TestCase#access_token}
Hope this helps,
Just finished breakfast and already hit a snag. I'm trying to call the salesforce REST api from my google sheets. I've written a working script locally in python, but converting it into JS, something went wrong:
function authenticateSF(){
var url = 'https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token';
var options = {
grant_type:'password',
client_id:'XXXXXXXXXXX',
client_secret:'111111111111',
username:'ITSME#smee.com',
password:'smee'
};
var results = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
}
Here is the error response:
Request failed for https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token
returned code 400. Truncated server response:
{"error_description":"grant type not
supported","error":"unsupported_grant_type"} (use muteHttpExceptions
option to examine full response) (line 12, file "Code")
Mind you, these exact parameters work fine in my local python script (putting the key values inside quotations).
Here are the relevant docs:
Google Script: Connecting to external API's
Salesforce: REST API guide
Thank you all!
Google's UrlFetchApp object automatically defaults to a GET request. To authenticate, you have to explicitly set in the options the method "post":
function authenticateSF(){
var url = 'https://login.salesforce.com/services/oauth2/token';
var payload = {
'grant_type':'password',
'client_id':'XXXXXXXXXXX',
'client_secret':'111111111111',
'username':'ITSME#smee.com',
'password':'smee'
};
var options = {
'method':'post',
'payload':payload
};
var results = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
}
