Hello everyone !!
I am with libcurl doing get to an API and I can pass a filter as a parameter as follows
where={ “nsacrux”: 20}
leaving the url as follows
NNN.com{ “nsacrux”: 20}
the issue that gives me error 400.
Playing with the VCode Thunder Client extension (it’s where I test the API call) it generates the curl and the where does it as follows:
where=%7B%22nsacrux%22%3A%2020%7D
and it stays working if I call with libcurl NNN.com
how could i solve it?
thank you so much
What does utf-8 have to do with your question?
Hi Mike, it’s nice chatting with you.
When I convert the GET call to curl, the parameter is passed to utf-8
I have tried it with libcurl without converting the parameter to utf-8 and it gives error 400. Maybe it is a mistake or a misinterpretation on my part
That’s not what utf-8 is. This is just encoding the non-URI-friendly characters as hex. The % means that the following 2 characters are hex.
If you can’t find a way to convert that, I have a method here: AmbleScrayLite/Clarion/JS_HexTools.clw at 60a07f7ba808baef995c4a93f3c2763b2f70b6b9 · jslarve/AmbleScrayLite · GitHub
that example misses parts of the url after the .com, on the image it can be seen rux?where= , can you confirm the url you tested was complete?
Hi Carlos,
It is not utf-8, it is url encoding. You can use TCurlUrlApiClass or printf to encode:
TCurlUrlApiClass approach:
uapi TCurlUrlApiClass
CODE
host = 'http://server.com'
params = 'where={{ “nsacrux”: 20}'
uapi.Init()
uapi.SetPart(CURLUPART_URL, host)
uapi.SetPart(CURLUPART_QUERY, params, CURLU_URLENCODE)
uapi.GetPart(CURLUPART_URL, url)
rc = curl.SendRequest(url,...)
printf approach:
host = 'http://server.com'
params = 'where={{ “nsacrux”: 20}'
url = printf('%s?%u', host, params)
rc = curl.SendRequest(url,...)
Oh! my God!! Sorry for the misconception on my part.
I have learned something new today.
Thank you very much to all !!
