Hi everyone,
I need to send an String to a back end, via HTTP POST (using HTTP Request node). The message must contain a String (not XML neither JSon. Just a text). I am not sure which domain should I use. I tried BLOB, but it didn't work.
Using CURL in command line, it works like below:
curl -X POST "http://myBackEnd.com" -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -d "Here goes the text"
Please, which is the suitable domain?
Many thanks
Savio

| Did you try with the DFDL or MRM parser depending on your version? |

Did you mean, something like
SET OutputRoot.DFDL = 'Here goes my text';
?

No, something that references a DFDL schema like:
| Code: |
| SET OutputRoot.DFDL.Schema.TheText = "Here goes my text'; |
where you've developed the schema and added the element.
BLOB is another option but as you've simply said "it didn't work" it's impossible to advise you on what went wrong.
I'm also somewhat cynical of the business value of a URL which accepts a piece of free form text, of indeterminate length, as an input. I fail to see what the receiving application could usefully do with such a string.

How did it not work? What is the error you're getting? |

I agree, but since the backend belongs to a external partner, I have no control on how the data are transfered.

When you sent the BLOB, did you also set the appropriate HTTPHeader saying 'Content-type = Application Text'
