Connection with API error code 415: Unsupported Media Type

[Muhummad_Solehudin]

 

I have a problem when connect with API, the connection have the error 415 Unsupported Media Type that I don' know to solve it.

This is my URL API

and this is the download tool configuration

try hardcoding Name Content-Type with a Value of application/problem+json in your header tab in the download tool.

my usual strategy is run in Postman and then transcribe to Alteryx...

also your query string/body probably isn't the same as your URL - but you have it set as such.

I've tried this one but still same error

[apathetichell]

does it work in Postman?

Looking for a solution for this. Any help appreciated. I am trying to get a JWT by sending a POST call, but I get a similar error message

HTTP/1.1 415 Unsupported Media Type
Server: Kestrel
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2023 14:24:46 GMT
Content-Length: 0

When i use Postman, I get the JWT without any error. I am unable to configure the Alteryx Download tool

@swadson Postman autogenerates content-type - it's probably something like json/application - hard code this value in headers (ie content-type/json/application) - re-run.

@apathetichell  - Thank you!

I am not sure if I am doing it right. Below is the change I that I did. 

Now I get  Bad request error

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii
Server: Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0
Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2023 16:38:55 GMT
Connection: close
Content-Length: 339

@aparthetichell - By the way, I am making this API call to an application that was built by our vendor.

@swadson- what does postman say is your content-type? I usually just hardcode it - as opposed to sending in a field (click add in the section above on the headers screen) see if postman creates other headers which are not replicated by Alteryx. You can also toggle on the code section of Postman (right options) to see the Curl command - basically you will be replicating that in Alteryx.

honestly there's some nuance here - and sometimes nuance within the Content-Type but the 415 error usually refers to that.

@apathetichell - I found the issue, seems like content-type is case sensitive. I am able to get the JWT now. Thank you!!
