German Ballesteros [SLC] [DevOps Member]563 23rd July 2020 0 Comments

I'm trying to connect to a DMA API using the API command (ConnectApp) and it throws a "500 Internal Bad Request" status code. You can see the error description below:

"Request format is unrecognized for URL unexpectedly ending in '/ConnectApp'."

Here is the request I'm trying to execute with HTTPS communication.

I also tried with HTTP communication and it throws the following error:

The error message says exactly what is wrong, you're using a wrong url.

The SOAP interface should be used like this:

Note: the url ends with soap.asmx, not with "/ConnectApp". With SOAP, the web method is specified in the SOAP message.

With the JSON interface, the web method is specified in the url:

As our web methods make use of complex types, form-data isn't supported.

Hi German,

If you are executing the web API call, could you please double-check if the <protocols> section has been uncommented in the web.config file.

This should be done with caution, enabling this allows any web page hosted on any webserver to execute in the client browser any WebAPI methods on the DataMiner.
Enabling this is not needed to use the WebAPI methods in an application like Postman.
When in doubt, keep this disabled (which is the default).
