Hi All,
I've added an invoke method in the hope of being able to call it from Rollbase eventually - I've been trying from postman as well as from rollbase using the sendJSONrequest function. The problem I am getting is I don't seem able to get the openedge method to receive any inputs. In the example below filter always returns ? no matter what I put into postman or the sendJSONrequest function.
@openapi.openedge.export(type="REST", useReturnValue="false", writeDataSetBeforeImage="false").
@progress.service.resourceMapping(type="REST", operation="invoke", URI="/StartLoad", alias="", mediaType="application/json").
METHOD PUBLIC VOID StartLoad(INPUT filter AS CHARACTER,
INPUT qryPos AS INTEGER,
OUTPUT DATASET dsBatch):
MESSAGE "i ran! filter is: " filter VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.
END METHOD.
What should I be sending with Postman or Rollbase sendJSONrequest to get the inputs populated? I've tried many different variations of parameter all with no luck, I always send a type of "PUT" - anyone know where I might be going wrong?
Thanks,
Mark
Hello Mark,
To pass input parameters to an invoke operation, you need to use a request object as the request payload.
Here is an example on how it would look like:
{"request":{"filter":"", qryPos: 20}}
Just in case, here is an example that uses it:
oemobiledemo.progress.com/.../example015.html
For this example, the request payload looks like the following:
{"request":{"piYear":2014}}
I hope this helps.
Has anyone else got this to work?

Hello,
Just in case, here is the link to the documentation on passing parameters to a method:

Thanks a lot for that, it works perfectly!
