Issue
I'm using Plsql_Rest_Sender_API.Call_Rest_Endpoint_Json to call rest API service. It works fine for POST and GET, but it does not work for PATCH. I'm getting following error message:
ExecutionException from Sender thread Caused by: ifs.fnd.connect.senders.ConnectSender$TemporaryFailureException: Exception while sending data Caused by: ifs.fnd.base.SystemException: Patch error: 405 (Method Not Allowed)
The same PATCH call works fine from Postman, so there is no issue on receiver side.
Product Version: 22R2SU8
Resolution
Restarting the ifsapp-connect container will the solve the initial issue.
Then you might see the below error,
ExecutionException from Sender thread
Caused by: ifs.fnd.connect.senders.ConnectSender$TemporaryFailureException: Exception while sending data
Caused by: ifs.fnd.base.SystemException: Patch error: 201 (Created)
This happens because by default IFS Connect Rest Sender doesn’t accept HTTP Code 201 as a success response. REST Sender by default accept only HTTP Code 200 as a success response.
If your third-party endpoint returns HTTP 201 as a success response, then you have to add it to the ‘Accepted Code’ in REST Sender configuration. After that REST Sender will consider that response code (in your case 201) as a success response. OR else you can set the ‘Accepted codes’ from PL/SQL logic as well. It will apply only for that specific message flow.
