Exception during API migration implementation

sricharan — Thu, 23 Jan 2020 05:20:59 GMT

I am working Alteryx API implementations using Python. i have executed all API endpoints(getting questions, executing the workflow, getting results of workflow, etc.) with the help of interactive api doc and Python.

I have stuck while Publishing workflow using API into another gallery(workflow migration). i am facing an issue -

{"data":null,"exceptionName":"BadRequestException","innerExceptionMessage":"","message":"Must specify subscription key (oauth_consumer_key parameter)."}'.

Earlier while i was executing other endpoints Alteryx never asked me for subscription key.

For publishing, i am using,

.yxzp extended workflow as a example
URL - gallery/api/admin/v1/workflows/
admin API key & secret are used
passing file to upload in the files attribute in the requests.post method (e.g resp = requests.post(url, files ={'logo': file_to_publish}, headers = {
'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data','Accept': 'application/xml'}))
payload is file_to_publish

@JeffreyP and others Please help me to execute Publish endpoint? Could you please provide the artifacts(code/workflow) of the working prototype if you have?

Your reply is much appreciable.

You need to be passing the "oauth_consumer_key"

See this post for a reference...https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Dev-Space/Server-2018-4-POST-api-admin-v1-workflows-UnknownError/m-p/418660

Hope this helps. If so, please mark as solved so others can find it on the community

Your reply much helpful and followed Thanks!

Now i am facing an another issue

{"data":null,"exceptionName":"UnknownException","innerExceptionMessage":"","message":"Unknown error.\\u000aIOException\\u000aRequestID: 82ff4537ef7046a3aee076b4e50bcdb4"}

What could be the reason?

I have used MultiPartEncoder from the requests_toolbelt of python that has resolved my issue.

@sricharan - Hey do you have a sample of the POST request in Python to send a file?
