Post to REST API and Correct Format of Request Body

[fiorano]

Hi Experts!

I have been given a url : https://testsite.org/test/api.php

I have a list of IDs and Descriptions to POST to this API and uses the following request Body format :

{
"Parameters": {
               "UserAccessKey": "737xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
              "ResultsCheck" : "Y"
},
        "TestList": {
                    "12335438": "12335438, Test Scenario 7AHy6"
                           }
}

I have this functioning perfectly in Postman but have no idea how to set this up in Alteryx!

Appreciate any advice!

Hi @fiorano You should check out the documentation for the Download Tool - since that's the tool you will be using to handle this.

https://help.alteryx.com/2018.1/Download.htm

Also - you should download Fiddler. You can use Fiddler to capture what Alteryx is posting via the download tool to help troubleshoot/debug it.

Hi @TravisR thanks for your reply!

You wouldn't know how to set up the Request Body correctly would you?

Has this issue been resolved? I am facing the exact issue where the POST request works in POSTMAN but not in alteryx
