QRS POST Node js

I'm trying to call this post / app / content / table method in nodejs, but I get the error: Missing parameter value (s). What am I doing wrong?

 

var https = require('https');
var fs = require('fs');
var options = {
"rejectUnauthorized": false,
hostname: 'test.test.com',
path: '/qrs/app/content/table?xrfkey=0123456789abcdef&name=FindLongLatImported',
method: 'POST',
port:4242,
headers: {
'x-qlik-xrfkey' : '0123456789abcdef',
'X-Qlik-User' : 'UserDirectory= Internal; UserId= sa_repository',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
},
key: fs.readFileSync("C:\\Users\\myuser\\nodeJS\\certificates\\client_key.pem"),
cert: fs.readFileSync("C:\\Users\\myuser\\nodeJS\\certificates\\client.pem"),
ca: fs.readFileSync("C:\\Users\\myuser\\nodeJS\\certificates\\root.pem")
};
var req = https.request(options, function (res) {
var responseString = "";
res.on("data", function (data) {
responseString += data;
});
res.on("end", function () {
console.log(responseString);
});
});
req.write('"41439c69-2091-4d5c-9dcc-a39431caa9d4"');
req.end();

Here's an example that I have doing a POST:

 

var fs = require('fs');
var request = require('request');

fs.readFile('C:\\Scripts\\NodeJS\\foo.xml', function (err, data) {
    if (err) return console.error(err);
  
    options = {
        url: 'https://usral-ltu2.qliktech.com:4242/qrs/contentlibrary/Default/uploadfile?externalpath=foo.xml&over...',
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {
           'x-qlik-xrfkey' : 'abcdefghijklmnop',
           'X-Qlik-User' : 'UserDirectory= Internal; UserId= sa_repository ',
           'Content-Type' : 'application/json'
        },
        key: fs.readFileSync('C:\\ProgramData\\Qlik\\Sense\\Repository\\Exported Certificates\\.Local Certificates\\client_key.pem'),
        cert: fs.readFileSync("C:\\ProgramData\\Qlik\\Sense\\Repository\\Exported Certificates\\.Local Certificates\\client.pem"),
        ca: fs.readFileSync("C:\\ProgramData\\Qlik\\Sense\\Repository\\Exported Certificates\\.Local Certificates\\root.pem"),
        body: data
        
    };
    // Needed for NodeJS 10.x:
    process.env.NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED = "0";
  
    request.post(options, function (err, message, data) {
      if (err) return console.error(err);
  
      console.log(data)
    });
  });

 

Obviously that has many hard-coded values which need adjusting, but feel free to use it as a base.

Since the options > url value is being truncated. Here it is: https://usral-ltu2.qliktech.com:4242/qrs/contentlibrary/Default/uploadfile?externalpath=foo.xml&over...

I almost managed to call the POST-api, but he does not accept my parameters ... I get the error: Object reference does not indicate an object instance.
You can get foo.xml to run your code

Try calling this method:

/qrs/app/content/table?xrfkey=0123456789abcdef
