I have a curl command that was given to me that I have to convert using requests.
curl --request POST "https://www.example.com" --data "user_id=200" --data "user_data=je93jfe92dj220,39fjid20djd93f302,93jfieheio02hfne,902jfoienfieshiu202" --header "Authorization: Bearer [TOKEN]"
using requests, the call should be
hdr = {'Content-Type': 'Content-type: application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer TOKEN' }
payload = {"user_id":200,"records":"je93jfe92dj220,39fjid20djd93f302,93jfieheio02hfne,902jfoienfieshiu202"
requests.post('https://www.example.com', headers=hdr, data=json.dumps(payload))
This isn't working as I'm getting an error returned that the 'user_id' param must be an integer. Not sure how to ensure that, as aren't all parameters formatted as strings when sent? The curl command does work, however.
Im not really sure the reason, but to make this work, just change data=json.dumps(payload) to json=json.dumps(payload). This worked just fine for me.

I am trying to integrate Opayo (SagePay) with Django and I am having problems generation the merchant session key (MSK).
From sagepays docs they say to use the below curl request and that I should receive the key in the response
curl https://pi-test.sagepay.com/api/v1/merchant-session-keys \
-H "Authorization: Basic aEpZeHN3N0hMYmo0MGNCOHVkRVM4Q0RSRkxodUo4RzU0TzZyRHBVWHZFNmhZRHJyaWE6bzJpSFNyRnliWU1acG1XT1FNdWhzWFA1MlY0ZkJ0cHVTRHNocktEU1dzQlkxT2lONmh3ZDlLYjEyejRqNVVzNXU=" \
-H "Content-type: application/json" \
-X POST \
-d '{
"vendorName": "sandbox"
}'
I have tried to implement this in my Django view with the following code but I receive a 422 response (Unprocessable Entity response).
import requests
def BasketView(request):
headers = {
"Authorization": "Basic aEpZeHN3N0hMYmo0MGNCOHVkRVM4Q0RSRkxodUo4RzU0TzZyRHBVWHZFNmhZRHJyaWE6bzJpSFNyRnliWU1acG1XT1FNdWhzWFA1MlY0ZkJ0cHVTRHNocktEU1dzQlkxT2lONmh3ZDlLYjEyejRqNVVzNXU=",
"Content-type": "application/json",
}
data = {"vendorName": "sandbox"}
r = requests.post("https://pi-test.sagepay.com/api/v1/merchant-session-keys", headers=headers, params=data)
print(r)
Any ideas where I may be going wrong with this?
You are passing the wrong parameter to requests.post() you should use jsoninstead of params:
r = requests.post(
"https://pi-test.sagepay.com/api/v1/merchant-session-keys",
headers=headers,
json=data
)
By doing so, there is no need to specify the Content-Type header, it is added automatically.
Does anyone else also noticed strange forbidden responses for existing vcard files updates?
See my curl example:
curl --location --request PUT 'https://p52-contacts.icloud.com/1........4/carddavhome/card/53cd4fa9-6fb0-40c3-9975-ff41909c7d9c.vcf' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic [secret]' \
--header 'Content-Type: text/vcard; charset=utf-8' \
--data-raw 'BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
N:Last;contact-update_simple;Middle;Prefix;Suffix
FN:Prefix contact-update_simple Last Suffix
UID:53cd4fa9-6fb0-40c3-9975-ff41909c7d9c
END:VCARD'
Response most time is "403 Forbidden" - but some calls seems to pass.
In Postman, I am trying to retrieve a session value returned from a post call and use it in another get call.
I mean, I called via Postman:
curl -X POST \
https://skyscanner-skyscanner-flight-search-v1.p.rapidapi.com/apiservices/pricing/v1.0 \
-H 'Accept: */*' \
-H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' \
-H 'Connection: keep-alive' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
-H 'Host: skyscanner-skyscanner-flight-search-v1.p.rapidapi.com' \
-H 'Postman-Token: xxxx' \
-H 'User-Agent: PostmanRuntime/7.15.0' \
-H 'accept-encoding: gzip, deflate' \
-H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
-H 'content-length: 177' \
-d 'inboundDate=2019-11-25&cabinClass=economy&children=0&infants=0&Country=BR&Currency=BRL&locale=pt-BR&originPlace=GRU-sky&destinationPlace=MCZ-sky&outboundDate=2019-11-19&adults=2'
It returned in Header among others keys:
Location →http://partners.api.skyscanner.net/apiservices/pricing/uk2/v1.0/b5b906e9-164e-4f1d-b5ce-9085b8a3506d
Now, I want to call another API and I must use the session id returned in previous call. It is after /v1.0/. In this case it is b5b906e9-164e-4f1d-b5ce-9085b8a3506d
The first steps is getting the Location key value but I am getting the error mentioned in this question title (see picture attached for more details).
So my straight question is how can I retrieve the Location value from another post request? Well, a complementary and helpfull coment will be how to parse and get only the session id but naturally firsly I have to fix how retrieve the whole Location value.
It is more or less this what I am trying:
var sessionKey = JSON.parse(postman.getResponseHeader('Location') );//maybe here applying some regular expression to get only the value after the last "/"
pm.environment.set("sessionkey", postman.getResponseHeader("sessionkey"));
My question is somehow close to In POSTMAN how do i get substring of response header item? but here the question author is able to use postman.getResponser and it seems he didn't get a final answer at the end.
My Postman version is 7.3.4 (Latest) (I have just updated it).
*** edited after first sugestion
*** another tentative failling
var locationHeader = pm.response;
console.log(pm.response); //Print successfully all response including body and header
var jsonData = JSON.parse(pm.response); //exception: There was an error in evaluating the Pre-request Script: JSONError: Unexpected token u in JSON at position 0
console.log("Location = " + jsonData.Location);
PS. it is interesting that
pm.request.headers.add({key: 'X-RapidAPI-Host', value: 'skyscanner-skyscanner-flight-search-v1.p.rapida.com'})
works properly in my collection Pre-request scripts. It is obvious to have pm.request.headers.get, isn't it? But it doesn't have.

I also added this question in https://community.getpostman.com/t/trying-to-get-a-session-value-from-a-post-call-in-postman-typeerror-postman-getresponseheader-is-not-a-function/6804
*** edited
Just in case someone get interested, my final implementation is
var locationHeader = pm.response.headers.get("Location").split('/');
var locationPosition = locationHeader.length-1;
var sessionKey = locationHeader[locationPosition];
pm.environment.set("sessionkey", sessionKey);
in Test tab while calling POst Create Session
Add the following script in the first request test, it will set sessionkey value that you can use for later calls.
var locationHeader = postman.getResponseHeader("Location").split('/');
var sessionKey = locationHeader[locationHeader.length-1];
pm.environment.set("sessionkey", sessionKey);
I have created an endpoint localhost:8000/getauthtoken to generate the authentication token.
The curl command that i am using to get the authentication token is:
curl --request POST --url localhost:8000/getauthtoken --header 'content-type: application/json' --data '{"username":"admin", "password":"admin123"}'
But i am getting
{"password":["This field is required."],"username":["This field is required."]}
But in the command i am passing both username and password
As per the DRF documentation http://www.django-rest-framework.org/api-guide/authentication/ this is the correct way.
Use httpie (available on pypi)
Then follow this on terminal:
Http post your_ip:your_port/your_authresource/ username='' password=''
Or you can try that in Curl in right way:
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api-token-auth/ -d "password=aaaaa&username=user"
I am trying to send multiple json object in one request , but I am not able to extract values from it.
def config(request):
print "type",type(request)
print "request in config",request.body
if request.method == 'POST':
print "In Handler"
print "Request Body is ",request.body
data = simplejson.loads(request.body)
for i in data:
print "REQUEST is ____",i
z = json.dumps(i)
rew = retResp(z)
proID = request.data["proId"]
For request 1 can find proID but for request 2 I am not able to get proID.
req1 = curl -X POST http://192.168.2.242:8080/server/config/ -d '{"confMsgReqId": 2,"proId":"123"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json"
req2 = curl -X POST http://192.168.2.242:8080/server/config/ -d '[{"confMsgReqId": 2,"proId":"123"},{"confMsgReqId": 2,"proId":"345"}]' -H "Content-Type: application/json"
The data in the first request is a dictionary, so you can access data['proID'].
The data in the second request is a list of two dictionaries, so you can access data[0]['proID'] or data[1]['proID'].
You'll find it easier if you use an array for the first request as well as the second. It's possible to make an api that can handle a single element of a list, but it makes the code more complicated.
req1 = curl -X POST http://192.168.2.242:8080/server/config/ -d '[{"confMsgReqId": 2,"proId":"123"}]' -H "Content-Type: application/json"
Looking at your code, you might want to access the id inside the loop. It's not clear why you are decoding the json manually instead of using request.data.
for d in request.data:
d["proId"]
