Hi,

I’m on IFS 9 and I would like to send a post request to a routing address.

IFS 9 doesn’t support destination type REST, so I need to use HTTP.

I know the endpoint, and from postman I have copied this HTTP request:

 

When I try to call this endpoint from IFS using a routing address I get “Internal server error” back.

I know the headers and the message are correct, but IFS doesn’t seam to read them correct.

How could this be done?

Any help is very much appreciated.

Hi @krestensb,

Can you change your application to accept requests with Content-Type: text/plain header?

Seems IFS HTTP sender tags request with Content-Type: text/plain header by default.

I can try.
Does it mean it will only accept Content-Type: text/plain ?

 

What headers I’m sending from postman is:

Content-Type: text/plain

Content-Type: Application/json

Seems your application accepts only Content-Type: Application/json

Usually, a HTTP request has only one Content-Type header parameter and it depends your application how it’s used. What I think is your application accepts only the first header field.

I just tried your api with text/plain content type header in postman and got the same response getting from IFS.

I changed the api, to accept text/plain, and now it works.

Thanks

Next step in this for me is to grap the response from the endpoint and work with it in the database.
