Hi Experts,

Im trying to get a simple example code to Work. I have a very simple XML file that I want to use as my content body to a SAS webservice that I have exposed.

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<onboarding>
	<streams>
		<in_xml>
			<Value>
			<ape:Apply xmlns:ape="http://ape.dfr.dk/v1" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../AutomatedProductEstablishmentService.xsd">			
	<Origin>
		<Agent>Smith</Agent>
		<AgentReference>1234</AgentReference>
	</Origin>
	<Context>Onboarding</Context>
	<MainApplicant>
		<SocialSecurityNumber>1234567891</SocialSecurityNumber>
		<FirstName>My</FirstName>
		<LastName>Man</LastName>
		<StreetAddress>Gadevej 1</StreetAddress>
		<PostalCode>1234</PostalCode>
		<City>City2</City>
		<MobileNumber>20200202</MobileNumber>
		<Email>mymail@gmail.com</Email>
	</MainApplicant>
</ape:Apply>
</Value>
		</in_xml>
	</streams>
</onboarding>
proc http 
	url			= 'http://<hostname>/SASBIWS/rest/storedProcesses/STP/AML/onboarding' 
	method 		= 'POST'
	in			= payload
	out			= response
	headerout	= head_out
	verbose
	;
	headers 'Content-Type' 	= 'text/xml'
	;
run;

My request never reaches the storedprocess server, it gets an error from the webserver:

 

NOTE: Macro variable SYS_PROC_HTTP_CACHE created for PROC HTTP System cache.
URL                  =

45       headers 'Content-Type'  = 'text/xml'
46       ;
Setting Header: Content-Type: text/xml
47   run;

      real time           0.37 seconds
      cpu time            0.01 seconds

NOTE: 415 Unsupported Media Type

Any idea what i might be doing wrong here?

The cause seems quite clear: the content you are sending is not what is expected.

" A 415 Unsupported Media Type error occurs when the origin server refuses a particular request since the resource is in a format that is not supported by the server for the HTTP method used. This unsupported format type issue can be caused by what is defined in the resource's Content-Type or Content-Encoding headers. "

Hi Chris,

 

Thank you for the reply!

 

I just dont understand why the server is saying this. Im sending XML in the payload and I have set the header for the request to content-Type = text/XML. The STP is registered with a data instream that requires text/XML input data. Where do I need to make a change?
