hroderick-thr — Thu, 16 Jun 2022 13:38:13 GMT

I need help a very simple app attached run using the API interactive documentation tool that's built into Alteryx Server.

I'm running version 2021.1.4.26400

I've been successful running apis numbered 1 and 2 below but stuck on 3

The app I'm trying to run is attached.

I've tried different apps from different machines and always get the same bad 500 return

I am running in chrome on the server logged in as the main service account and have the app in the main service accounts private studio

The questions I'm providing in 3 are

{
"questions": [
{
"name": "Input String",
"value": "abcd"
}
],
"priority": ""
}

Hi @hroderick-thr, thanks for all the details you provided in your post! I'm just taking an educated guess in the dark, but try removing the priority tag (and the preceding comma):

{ "questions": [ { "name": "Input String", "value": "abcd" } ] }

I tested on my side, and I get the same 500 error when I include the priority tag. When I remove the priority tag, it worked just fine.

Hi @hroderick-thr, in addition to @patrick_digan's suggestion, adding "1" to the priority tag should work as well, such as...

"priority": "1"

Thanks @patrick_digan for another priceless contribution to my Alteryx journey

Thanks @BrianR for your addition, I think your suggestion is a tad easier but Patrick's was a tad faster

I tried executing the same APP that @hroderick-thr built.

I do not see any update in output.

I am getting below output

Input String,Reversed Output String ,

I was expecting below:

Input String,Reversed Output String abcd,dcba
