I want to send HTTP PUT Request on one URL to update that content of XML via using API.
URL is like this: https://domainname.com/someurls/id.xml
I want to update that content.
But When I am sending this PUT request, I have seen that in Network Monitor of Flex 4, Its going as the POST request on this web, while I am setting method as PUT in HTTPService variable.
So I am getting error.
So is there any way to send the PUT request on the web ?
Or
Is there any special header to set PUT method ?
I have tried method header but its not working....
Please help me.....
I have found the solution to send the put and delete service with HTTPSerivce in flex.
You just have to send one more header with the service method POST.
You have to send data in the POST method and attach one more header X-HTTP-Method-Override and the value as the PUT or DELETE.
Your service will be send as PUT or DELETE.
Thanks......
While Mitul's response did work for me as well, I was able to get PUT and DELETE requests working by doing the following.
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var urlString:String = "https://www.google.com/arbitraryUrl.json";
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(urlString);
urlRequest.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
variables._method = "DELETE";
urlRequest.data = variables;
urlLoader.load(urlRequest);
So same concept really. Different way of going about it. Hope this helps some people.
Flex doesn't support PUT due to the underlying flash player. See this article about the limitations.
There is a workaround here. However, if both the server and the client are under your control, I'd suggest using only GET and POST. Flex just isn't meant for true RESTful clients. (For example make a post with a parameter put=true)

I want to transform a URL before it is redirected to the target, removing a string. I have the following flow in Apigee:
USER -> APIGEE -> APPLICATION -> APIGEE -> USER
The user requests and then its URL should be rewritten removing bar from the URL.
BEFORE apigee.url.com/foo/bar/pBxATaojIn8tk5dvQdNJ
AFTER target.url.com/foo/pBxATaojIn8tk5dvQdNJ
I use Proxy Endpoints and Target Endpoints and try to rewrite using a PreFlow hook with Javascript in the Target Endpoint, without success rewriting the proxy.pathsuffix. How can I solve this?
I now use the following solution:
// Disable copy path
context.setVariable("target.copy.pathsuffix", false);
// Replace string in incoming proxy URL path
var proxyPathSuffix = context.getVariable("proxy.pathsuffix");
var fooBarAfter = proxyPathSuffix.replace('/fooToReplace', '');
// Fetch target outgoing url path
var targetBasePath = context.getVariable("target.basepath");
var urlPath = targetBasePath.concat(fooBarAfter);
// Replace outgoing url
var targetUrl = context.getVariable("target.url");
targetUrl = targetUrl.replace(targetBasePath, urlPath);
context.setVariable("target.url", targetUrl);
I came up with it looking at the available variables here. As this is JS, if someone comes up with a better solution I would be happy!
From my understanding proxy.pathsuffix is a read only variable so you can't override it.
Assign your target endpoint to target.url instead. (I usually use in Assign Message Policy of the request)
Example:
<AssignVariable>
<Name>target.url</Name>
<Ref>yourTargetUrlValue</Ref>
</AssignVariable>
In my Assign Message Policy of the request, I have added the block of code above for defined my target url.
You can assign directly like <Ref>http://test.com</Ref> or assign via variable like <Ref>{targetUrlVal}</Ref>
If you got the url from somewhere, don't forget to assign value to your variable before use it by using context.setVariable("targetUrlVal", "http://test-01.com");
Hopefully my answer will help you.
I solved this similar to how you did it. See my answer on another SO question that answers this.
I want to get a subscriber email list from a web site so how can i get through ajax call from code behind?
WebClient client = new WebClient();
WebRequest req = WebRequest.Create("https://api.aweber.com/1.0/accounts/1/lists/xxxxxx/");
req.ContentType = "application/json";
WebResponse response = req.GetResponse();
Above "xxxxx" means a listname.but its give me a bad request error so how can i make a request from code behind in asp.net c#?
The URL is the most likely cause of your problem. AWeber resources are addressed by numeric IDs, not by name. So for your "xxxxx", you would need the list ID rather than the list name as you indicated.
The list IDs together with the list names are visible right in the "lists" collection JSON when you retrieve:
https://api.aweber.com/1.0/accounts/<ACCOUNT ID>/lists/
Another thing I noticed is that your URL has the account ID set to 1. I suspect that's not an accurate account ID in your case.
To accomplish your goal of retrieving the email addresses, finally, you'll want to add "subscribers" to the end of your URL in order to hit the appropriate resource. While a "list" resource contains data specific to the list in question, the subscriber data is a whole additional level of detail.
Example URL:
https://api.aweber.com/1.0/accounts/<ACCOUNT ID>/lists/<LIST ID>/subscribers
If you are still getting exceptions after making those changes, drop AWeber API Support (api#aweber.com) a note with the specifics.
I've found a few posts about retrieving HTML from an ASPX page, mostly by overriding the render method, using a WebClient, or creating an HttpWebRequest. All these methods return the HTML of the page as it's loaded, but I was hoping to actually retrieve the HTML after the user has entered information.
The purpose behind this is that I work in IT, and I'm attempting to build a logging library that has an overload that essentially does a "screen-scrape" on the page just as the user encounters an exception, that way I can log the exception, and create an HTML file in a sub-directory of the logging directory that shows the page exactly as the user had it before clicking "submit" or having some other random error, and add an "ID" to the error that's logged telling whoever is fixing the issue which page to look at.
I hope I've provided enough information, because I really have no idea where to start.
Also, We'd like to do this through our own library, because our logging library is included in our common library, and many of our common library functions use our logging class.
Hmmm...
If you want to see what the user sees after they've been using the page, you're most likely going to have to do some fancy client-side scripting.
A naive approach:
When the clicks the submit button, fire a JavaScript event that encodes the DOM and either passes it as a form variable to the server, or executes a separate AJAX request with the encoded data as a parameter. ("Encode" in this case may be as simple as grabbing document.innerHtml, but I haven't checked.)
This potentially introduces a lot of overhead to every form submission, so I'd keep it out of production code.
I'm not sure why you need the rendered HTML as part of your exception log - I've never found it necessary for server-side debugging.
You getting HTML code from a website. You can use code like this.
string urlAddress = "http://www.jobdoor.in";
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(urlAddress);
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
if (response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
{
Stream receiveStream = response.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader readStream = null;
if (response.CharacterSet == null)
readStream = new StreamReader(receiveStream);
else
readStream = new StreamReader(receiveStream, Encoding.GetEncoding(response.CharacterSet));
string data = readStream.ReadToEnd();
response.Close();
readStream.Close();
}
I am working on an app where we have to pass specific web api parameters to a web app using HTTP POST.
eg:
apimethod name
parameter1 value
parameter2 value
So do I use a string or URLEncodedPostData to send that data?
It would be good if u help me with a code eg.
I am using something like this but it doesnt post the data to the server.
Though the response code is ok/200 and I also get get a parsed html response when i read the httpresponse input stream. But the code doesnt post anything. So unable to get the expected response.
_postData.append("method", "session.getToken");
_postData.append( "developerKey", "value");
_postData.append( "clientID", "value");
_httpConnection = (HttpConnection) Connector.open(URL, Connector.READ_WRITE);
String encodedData = _postData.toString();
_httpConnection.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST);
_httpConnection.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "BlackBerry/3.2.1");
_httpConnection.setRequestProperty("Content-Language", "en-US");
_httpConnection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
_httpConnection.setRequestProperty("Content-Length",(new Integer(encodedData.length())).toString());
os = _httpConnection.openOutputStream();
os.write(requeststring.getBytes());`
The code you posted above looks correct - although you'll want to do a few more things (maybe you did this already but didn't include it in your code):
Close the outputstream once you've written all the bytes to it
Call getResponseCode() on the connection so that it actually sends the request
POSTed parameters are usually sent in the response BODY, which means URL-encoding them is inappropriate. Quote from the HTTP/1.1 protocol:
Note: The "multipart/form-data" type has been specifically defined
for carrying form data suitable for processing via the POST
request method, as described in RFC 1867 [15].
The post method allows you to use pretty arbitrary message bodies — so it is whatever format the server wants.
I am doing an e-commerce solution in ASP.NET which uses PayPal's Website Payments Standard service. Together with that I use a service they offer (Payment Data Transfer) that sends you back order information after a user has completed a payment. The final thing I need to do is to parse the POST request from them and persist the info in it. The HTTP request's content is in this form :
SUCCESS
first_name=Jane+Doe
last_name=Smith
payment_status=Completed
payer_email=janedoesmith%40hotmail.com
payment_gross=3.99
mc_currency=USD
custom=For+the+purchase+of+the+rare+book+Green+Eggs+%26+Ham
Basically I want to parse this information and do something meaningful, like send it through e-mail or save it in DB. My question is what is the right approach to do parsing raw HTTP data in ASP.NET, not how the parsing itself is done.
Something like this placed in your onload event.
if (Request.RequestType == "POST")
{
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(Request.InputStream))
{
if (sr.ReadLine() == "SUCCESS")
{
/* Do your parsing here */
}
}
}
Mind you that they might want some special sort of response to (ie; not your full webpage), so you might do something like this after you're done parsing.
Response.Clear();
Response.ContentType = "text/plain";
Response.Write("Thanks!");
Response.End();
Update: this should be done in a Generic Handler (.ashx) file in order to avoid a great deal of overhead from the page model. Check out this article for more information about .ashx files
Use an IHttpHandler and avoid the Page model overhead (which you don't need), but use Request.Form to get the values so you don't have to parse name value pairs yourself. Just pretend you're in PHP or Classic ASP (or ASP.NET MVC, for that matter). ;)
I'd strongly recommend saving each request to some file.
This way, you can always go back to the actual contents of it later. You can thank me later, when you find that hostile-endian, koi-8 encoded, [...], whatever it was that stumped your parser...
Well if the incoming data is in a standard form encoded POST format, then using the Request.Form array will give you all the data in a nice to handle manner.
If not then I can't see any way other than using Request.InputStream.
If I'm reading your question right, I think you're looking for the InputStream property on the Request object. Keep in mind that this is a firehose stream, so you can't reset it.
