Adding Mime Type using qlik.callRepository in mashup

Hi everyone,

I am new to using the Repository API and am trying to get rid of some annoying error messages associated with the fonts of type woff2 which come with Bootstrap. Currently, I receive an error in my mashup:

I have been advised that to remove these, I would need to register the woff2 MIME type, so I have added a couple of lines to my script:

qlik.callRepository('/qrs/extension/schema','GET').success(function(reply) {
alert(JSON.stringify(reply));
});

qlik.callRepository('/qrs/mimetype','POST',{"mime":"font/woff2", "additionalHeaders": "header1","binary": false }).success(function(reply) {
alert(JSON.stringify(reply));
});

While the first (GET) command works as expected (this was just a test to make sure that I could interact with the Repository API), the second returns an error:

Does anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?

Hi Richard,

You have to check whether from your machine: Allow Control- Allow Origin: * .......You install the chrome extension for the same.. Try after wards...

Sorry Sandeep, I don't understand your comment. Are you saying that everyone who views the mashup would have to install a Chrome extension? If so, this is not a viable option.

Hello Richard,

That's not viable option. I do agree. Just said to have check that option. As per your screenshot some problem in POST repository call which requires proper authentication.
