Problem Uploading Image thru REST / SOAP API

What do you see in rest.log file when you use setBinaryData REST API?

Here is the logs, seems to be no registration of API calls.

I don't see log from setDataField API call in your posting.



I used the following Java code for testing:





Map params = new HashMap();

params.put("sessionId", sessionId);

params.put("id", "832878");

params.put("fieldName", " template_file");

params.put("fileName", "fw9.pdf");

params.put("contentType", IContentTypes.MIME_PDF);



byte[] b = FileUtil.readFile(new File("c:/temp/fw9.pdf"));

System.out.println("bytes: "+b.length);

params.put("value", Base64Encoder.encode(b));



String res = HTTPClient.sendRequest("POST", baseURL+"setBinaryData", params);

System.out.println("setBinaryData: "+res);





Got this response:





Field "Template File" has been updated on TEST







and this log:



[2012-11-07 20:23:20,531] User Pavel Vorobiev successfully logged in: sessionId=rest-5766857947568172584

[2012-11-07 20:23:20,609] setDataField id=832878



It's working now.



For anyone who's having a trouble here is the code...

function getAppxysXml($url, $post_data){



	$crl = curl_init();



	curl_setopt ($crl, CURLOPT_POST, true);



	curl_setopt ($crl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_data);



	curl_setopt ($crl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);



	curl_setopt ($crl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);



	curl_setopt ($crl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);



	curl_setopt ($crl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);



	$ret = curl_exec($crl);



	curl_close($crl);



	return $ret;



}







$imageToBinary = file_get_contents('uploads/original/1499132.jpg');



$basesixfour = urlencode(chunk_split(base64_encode($imageToBinary)));



$login = getAppxysXml('https://www.domain.com/rest/api/login', array('loginName'=>'your_username', 'password'=>'your_password'));



$parseAsXmlDoc = new SimpleXMLElement($login);



$obtsessionId = $parseAsXmlDoc->sessionId;



$saveIt = getAppxysXml('https://www.domain.com/rest/api/setBinaryData?sessionId='.$obtsessionId.'&id=1499132&fieldName=photo&contentType=image/jpeg&fil

I'm having the same problem, I'm using javascript and AJAX. Is there any example for setBinarData using ajax?

We don't have examples of using REST API through AJAX.

Thank you for the response. Is there anyway that you can help me?

Hi Ronald, we don't offer development services today. You may want to contact one of our development partners such as Rollbase Philippines for help. Feel free to email us directly if you'd like us to connect you with them: support@rollbase.com

Thanks Matt for the response.

Okay, aside from JAVA have you tested this API using different language such as C or C# or even using AJAX. The easiest way to implement REST API is via AJAX, is this functionality is supported by AJAX? I just need to know if this API works using that language.
