Posting Data to Qlik- Using Java Rest Template giving 308

Poornima_Menon — Fri, 20 May 2022 04:04:09 GMT

Hi Qlik users,

I am relatively new to Qlik and trying to develop a POC.

My requirement is to post a user data file to Qlik account - call the REST end point -https://your-tenant.us.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/data-files via Java and see the file appear in the Data option in my account .

When I try the end point via postman getting the error -Request must have 'name' specified while posting new file . Adding my request screen -

Response :

Also I tried via calling this with Rest Template - but getting 308 . A sample to make this request successfully would be much appreciated and useful for me . Also an explanation of what the variables in BOLD should be which is given in the developer portal -

'{"name":"MyFile.csv","appId":"f34b91a1-0dc3-44ac-a847-51cb84122c84","connectionId":"ee6a390c-5d33-11e8-9c2d-fa7ae01bbebc","sourceId":"f34b91a1-0dc3-44ac-a847-51cb84122c84","tempContentFileId":"624b0f54459f1c00018dade4"}'

this post should probably be moved to another section (has nothing to do with Qlik Application Automation) but i would still like to comment on it.

I myself tried this yesterday when I saw this API endpoint. I get the same error message that the request must contain a 'name' parameter (400 - Bad request). I use postman and I believe the request should be ok;

curl --location --request POST "https://xxxxxxx.eu.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/data-files" \ --header "Content-Type: multipart/form-data" \ --header "Authorization: Bearer xxxxxxxxxxxx" \ --form "name=\"testFromAPI.csv\"" \ --form "connectionId=\"9ee38f4f-bedf-44f2-aeba-8c29d82eef5\"" \ --form "file=@\"/C:/xxxxxxx/testFromAPI.csv\""

Accourding to qlik.dev data-files post only name and file is mandatory, others are optional.
