Internal Server Error 500 - For only some API calls

Tom-work

I am trying to build a suite of tools using the V3 api. However, I have run into some issues with some API calls.

 

When I try to delete a workflow using the delete endpoint: /v3/workflows/{workflowId} I am getting a 500 'Internal Server Error'.

 

However, I do not run into this issue with multiple other API calls.

 

I haven't run into this issue with any GET calls, and have been able to use the delete collection call: Delete: /v3/collections/{collectionId}

 

Any suggestions where I should start looking?

 

Thanks!

Hello,

 

I have the same error with the delete workflow on 1 of my Gallery server (I have 3 Gallery servers: DEV, Staging, Prod).

On DEV it's working well, on Staging I have this 500 response code.

 

I've also done a post on the forum today about this.

Hope we will have an answer.

If you are using theforceDelete=true parameter in your DELETE request, try removing it to see if the request succeeds without it.

Sometimes, forcing a delete can lead to unexpected issues.

hi, did you ever resolve this? we have the same issue - most API calls are fine, but delete gives a 500 error
-> trying to delete a non-existent workflow gives a different error
-> as does trying from a user with insufficient perms
-> the workflow can be deleted as usual via the gallery UI

edit: maybe a version issue?? - server v: 2022.1.1.42619
-> looks a bit like this issue: TCPE-858 GCSE-1759
