I am new to REST and I am running into a problem when trying to PUT a request for a pin reset. If I use the same code I have developed with a GET the XML is returned. It seems that I am missing something with the formatting of my PUT request. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
 
<%
 dim XmlHttp
 dim PostURL
 dim ResponseXml
 dim sXML
 sXml="<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""UTF-8"" standalone=""yes""?>"
 sXml=sXml & "<Credential>"
 sXml=sXml & " <Credentials>44444</Credentials>"
 sXml=sXml & "</Credential>"
 PostURL="http://xx.xxx.xx.xx/vmrest/users/edb8da2b-74b4-43d4-9380-ef208f950dbd/credential/pin"
 
 Set XmlHttp = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
 XmlHttp.Open "PUT", PostUrl, false,  "cupiuser", "*******"
 XmlHttp.SetRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/xml"
 XmlHttp.SetRequestHeader "Accept", "application/xml"
 XmlHttp.setOption(2) = 13056
 XmlHttp.send sXML
 ResponseXml = XmlHttp.ResponseText
 Response.ContentType = "application/xml"
 response.write responseXML
%>

Ryan,

What do you mean by CredentialType? Did you pass this as a RequestHeader?

-Andy

Hi ¿ this is what the credentialtype values mean:



3=Password

4=Pin



The XML is actually documented on the server itself. This URL will give you a list of the XML schema files:



https://<server>/vmrest/schema <https://%3cserver%3e/vmrest/schema>



Just go there and click on the one you are interested in, say Credential in this case, and you will get the XML Schema for it that includes comments describing the content.

I am no expert but mine is working with a CredentialType of 4, not 5. Haven't found in doc exactly what each means yet.

I use to get that, but have managed to fix it. I am without Laptop

Thanks

Hi Andy ¿ the FAQ has an entry on 415 errors:



http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Unity_Connection_REST_API_FAQ



Try the suggestion there to see if that helps.

Simon,

That would be great because I still am getting a 415 Unsupported Media error.

Thanks,

Andy

I have set my header to include utf-8, not sure if it helps;
application/xml;charset=utf-8

no sorry, my code is in Java

have you tried using https ?
I recall having problems with http

You can poke through my CUPI wrapper library for C# folks (it has more to do with providing a strongly typed object based set of functions than anything else but you can poach from there anyway). The subversion source has the library, test projects, a couple example apps using the library and there some thrilling training videos as well:

http://www.ciscounitytools.com/CodeSamples/Connection/CUPI/CUPI.html

I tend to assume when I get an error like that it's Connection fussing about the WAV file format (it's very, very fussy about it) but that's normally not a 415 I don't believe. The library above throws in the towel and I just convert EVERY wav file I send up into a format I know it likes (it's an optional flag in the wav file upload method). I got tired of it bombing on the majority of the WAVs I tried to use...

Can you send the request using http and sniff the packet?  The server will respond with a 302 if you send HTTP instead of HTTPS, but it would be helpful to know the content of the HTTP headers for sure.  A 415 pretty specifically means the Content-Type or the Accept header isn't set somehow.  I've seen cases in some languages where the HTTP headers become unmodifiable, so even though they are set in the code, they don't actually get set under the covers.  A packet sniff would tell us a lot.

I will post my vb.net code tomorrow.

Simon
