Invalid Post: 400 - Bad Request with Python requests -


i'm using politemail's odata restful api (doc: politemail api entity directory)

i'm trying create contact inside of politemail requests.post().

below steps

load libraries

import requests import json  # point credentials import os import yaml mykeys = yaml.load(open(os.path.join(os.path.expanduser('~'), 'documents\keyfile2.json')))

authentication creds

user = mykeys['politemail'][1]['user'] password = mykeys['politemail'][1]['password'] auth = requests.auth.httpbasicauth(user, password)  base_url = 'https://comm.microsoft.com/ssv3/odata/' entity = 'lists' url = base_url+entity

get request

r = requests.get(url+'(56)', auth=auth) print(r.status_code) # '200'

i can within entity, can't post.

post request

below structure given in documentation

payload = { "id":"0", "name":"test list", "description":"does work", "isnewsletter":"0", "shared":false,  "creationdate":"2014-11-19t23:00:00.000z", "activestate":"1", "isanonymous":false, "businessid":"0", "regionid":"0" }

my request:

r = requests.post(url, data=json.dumps(payload),auth=auth)

it's output

415: request contains entity body no content-type header. inferred media type 'application/octet-stream' not supported resource."

but when add header content type:

r = requests.post(url, data=json.dumps(payload),auth=auth,                      headers = {"content-type": "application/json"})

i'm told:

400 "the request invalid." error has occurred.\r\n","type":"","stacktrace":""

i've tried following, no avail:

  • json= instead of data=
  • removing quotes num
  • changing id value other 0
  • removing newline characters payload

any appreciated!

update

the errors coming parsed text of response below full response readout when use beautifulsoup

{   "odata.error":{     "code":"","message":{       "lang":"en-us","value":"the request invalid."     },"innererror":{       "message":"contact : error has occurred.\r\n","type":"","stacktrace":""     }   } }

i able create list sample fixing capitalization of false false , isanonymous isanonymous in payload.

{     "id":"0",     "name":"test list",     "description":"does work",     "isnewsletter":"0",     "shared":false,      "creationdate":"2014-11-19t23:00:00.000z",     "activestate":"1",     "isanonymous":false,     "businessid":"0",     "regionid":"0" }

you mentioned creating contact @ beginning of post. able create contact following.

{       "displayname": "test test",       "firstname": "test",       "lastname": "test",       "email": "test@politemail.com",       "activestate": true,       "creationdate": "2017-09-12t0:49:23.303z",       "shared": false,       "ownerid": 0,       "categoryid": 8,       "stageid": 1,       "company": "",       "webaddress": "",       "title": "",       "fileas": "test test",       "source": 0,       "notes": "",       "custom1": "",       "custom2": "",       "custom3": "",       "custom4": "",       "custom5": "",       "custom6": "",       "custom7": "",       "custom8": "",       "custom9": "",       "custom10": "",       "custom11": "",       "custom12": "",       "custom13": "",       "custom14": "",       "custom15": "",       "custom16": "",       "custom17": "",       "custom18": "",       "custom19": "",       "custom20": "",       "businessid": 0,       "regionid": 0,       "lastchangeddate": "2017-09-12t20:49:23.303z",       "listid": null     }

i work @ politemail , have made internal request documentation updated fix capitalization of isanonymous.

update: documentation has been updated correct capitalization. http://kb.politemail.com/?p=1349
