HttpConnector - PATCH Group in OTDS

Alexander Jakob

Hi.

We are facing problems regarding calling the "Update Group" web service (PATCH) via the HttpConnector in AWP 16.7.2.
We are able to calling the "Get Group" web service, so I guess the general customization of out HttpConnector is correct.

GetGroup - which is working:

<implementation xmlns="http://httpconnector.opentext.com/1.0/implementation" xmlns:c="http://schemas.cordys.com/cws/1.0" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" type="HTTP">

     <connection-id>OTDS-REST</connection-id>

     <uri>/otdsws/rest/groups/{0}</uri>

     <http-method>GET</http-method>

     <request-handler class="com.opentext.applicationconnector.httpconnector.impl.RestRequestHandler">

          <req-headers>

               <header name="OTDSTicket" type="xpath">./OTDSTicket</header>

               <header name="Content-Type">application/json</header>

          </req-headers>

          <uri-parameters>

               <parameter type="xpath">./GroupID</parameter>

          </uri-parameters>

     </request-handler>

     <response-handler class="com.opentext.applicationconnector.httpconnector.impl.RestResponseHandler" />

     <valid-response-code>200</valid-response-code>

     <namespaces />

</implementation>

<SOAP:Envelope xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">

     <SOAP:Body>

          <GetGroup xmlns="http://ecmcore.ama.at/">

               <OTDSTicket>****</OTDSTicket>

               <GroupID>MSC_Büromaterialabwicklung@Content Server Members</GroupID>

          </GetGroup>

     </SOAP:Body>

</SOAP:Envelope>

UpdateGroup - which is not working:

<implementation xmlns="http://httpconnector.opentext.com/1.0/implementation" xmlns:c="http://schemas.cordys.com/cws/1.0" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" type="HTTP">

     <connection-id>OTDS-REST</connection-id>

     <uri>/otdsws/rest/groups/{0}</uri>

     <http-method>PATCH</http-method>

     <request-handler class="com.opentext.applicationconnector.httpconnector.impl.RestRequestHandler">

          <req-headers>

               <header name="OTDSTicket" type="xpath">./OTDSTicket</header>

               <header name="Content-Type">application/json</header>

          </req-headers>

          <uri-parameters>

               <parameter type="xpath">./GroupID</parameter>

          </uri-parameters>

     </request-handler>

     <response-handler class="com.opentext.applicationconnector.httpconnector.impl.RestResponseHandler" />

     <valid-response-code>200</valid-response-code>

     <namespaces />

</implementation>

<SOAP:Envelope xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">

     <SOAP:Body>

          <UpdateGroup xmlns="http://ecmcore.ama.at/">

               <OTDSTicket>****</OTDSTicket>

               <GroupID>MSC_Büromaterialabwicklung@Content Server Members</GroupID>

          </UpdateGroup>

     </SOAP:Body>

</SOAP:Envelope>

When calling this SOAP request, we are getting the following error:

Unrecognized field "OTDSTicket" (class com.opentext.otds.usergroup.data.Group), not marked as ignorable (13 known properties: "originUUID", "values", "urlLocation", "customAttributes", "urlId", "name", "numMembers", "location", "objectClass", "userPartitionID", "id", "description", "uuid"])

We know that the request is not complete, because we don't know how to get the following JSON into the SOAP request:

{

     "values": [

          {

               "name": "displayName",

               "values": [

                    "Test"

               ]

          }

     ]

}

We hope you guys can help us to call the following REST service from OTDS via the HttpConnector of the AWP:
