Test via POSTMAN REST services for POST

Lucian Stanus · July 31, 2023

I am trying to test via POSTMAN the REST call from D2SV-Client2Server-Logging (D2-Smartview/clientlog using the POST method) but I get the error below

{ "status": 415, "code": "E_UNSUPPORTED_MEDIA_TYPE", "message": "The specified media type application/json;charset=UTF-8 is not supported. Supported media types: [application/vnd.documentum.d2.v1+json, application/vnd.emc.documentum+json, application/json, application/home+json, application/hal+json, application/vnd.documentum.d2.v1+xml, application/vnd.emc.documentum+xml, application/atom+xml, application/xml, application/home+xml].", "details": "", "id": "b68bba83-15a4-406e-8976-e5a238e24c9f"}

The same error (when testing the POST verb) I get when testing the D2 REST created from the Assistant. I have tried adding application/json;charset=UTF-8 in the "consumes" and "produces" (in the controller) but also in the "Content-Type" and "accept" in Postman. FYI, I am using the /clientlog as a sample, I actually want my own call (created via the Assistant) to work correctly.

@Lucian Stanus : you need to set the content-type as either of those mentioned in the request header.

so for example you can set as Content-Type as application/json

@Antony Nalkara I have already tried that the other day and it didn't work. If you have the possibility, could you please test the only POST call frorm the D2SV-Client2Server-Logging sample? Or a new service create with the Assistant ? Maybe even with the body sample?

@Antony Nalkara were you able to test the OOTB REST call (using POST) created via the Assistant ? Thank you !

@Lucian Stanus : Sorry for the late response…yes so i did try the same API in D2SV-Client2Server-Logging sample.. so i was able to run it… here are a couple of screen shots of my headers as well as the body of the POST call that I fired.

It looks like you're encountering a media type issue with your POST request in Postman. Make sure to set the "Content-Type" header to one of the supported media types listed in the error message, such as

application/vnd.documentum.d2.v1+json

or iq test free online

application/json

. Also, check if your API endpoint is configured to accept the media type you're specifying. If you're still having trouble, consider reviewing the API documentation for any additional requirements. Good luck!
