I'm working on connecting to a 3rd-party API (Pipedrive) to a LiveCode
app I've done and seem to have a problem; any assistance would be
appreciated. Dummy (sandbox) account information has been included
with my code sample.
I've never used RESTful before, but the API seems pretty well
documented and I've had success much faster than anticipated working
with the data in LiveCode. It looks like commands are broke down into
3 types: GET (to retrieve data), POST (to create new data), and PUT
(to update existing data).
I can retrieve data using "put URL tRequestURL1 into tJSONfromPipedrive"
I can create new data using "post tJSONtoUpload to url tRequestURL2"
But when I try to update data using "put tJSONtoUpload into url
tRequestURL2" I get a 400 error from the server. I tried to
urlEncode(tJSONtoUpload) but got the same error.
Their API includes a sandbox for testing, and my code seems to align
with their examples and helped me get my tests in order. I'm just not
sure what's wrong with my PUT command.
https://developers.pipedrive.com/docs/api/v1/#!/Persons/put_persons_id
VARIABLE VALUES:
httpHeaders = {"Accept":"application/json"}
tRequestURL1 =
https://api.pipedrive.com/v1/persons?api_token=ef2c59a67144d185277fee92aa9ede877c6c10ff
tRequestURL2 =
https://api.pipedrive.com/v1/persons/2?api_token=ef2c59a67144d185277fee92aa9ede877c6c10ff
tJSONtoUpload = {"phone":"555-555-5555"}
Is there something glaring I'm missing? I can get this to execute on
their developer website, but using the same code seems to error out
for me in LiveCode 8.2.0dp2 Business.
