Hi Team
I have an issue a with a PostJSON request.
I have tested succesfully the content below with PostMan.
When invoking this a POSTJSON request, seems it can not handle orrectrly the content data.
var c=[
{
'login':'temp',
'SensorData':[
{
"Timestamp": 1727265323000,
"Quantity": "Temperature",
"Value": "19.2",
"Unit": "°C",
"DataType": "Decimal",
"ValueOK": true
}
]
}
] ;
let params = {
proxyScheme: "https",
headers: {
"Client": "xxx",
"Branch": "xxx",
"Api-Key": "xxx",
"version": "3.0"
},
url: "https://api.platform.twinzo.eu/v3/sensors/batch",
content: c,
};
// result: JSON
let result = Resources["ContentLoaderFunctions"].PostJSON(params);
Any idea of why it fails ?
"Message": "sensorContract.array:\n\tCannot deserialize the current JSON object (e.g. {\"name\":\"value\"}) into type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1[Core.Contract.V3.Sensors.SensorBatchContract]' because the type requires a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) to deserialize correctly.\r\nTo fix this error either change the JSON to a JSON array (e.g. [1,2,3]) or change the deserialized type so that it is a normal .NET type (e.g. not a primitive type like integer, not a collection type like an array or List<T>) that can be deserialized from a JSON object. JsonObjectAttribute can also be added to the type to force it to deserialize from a JSON object.\r\nPath 'array', line 1, position 9.\n",

Solved! Go to Solution.
Found a solution ( similar to https://community.ptc.com/t5/ThingWorx-Developers/API-call-PUT-JSON-content-array-instead-of-object/m-p/653352#M43453) :
Using PostText instead of PostJSON, and adding in the header:
contentType: "application/json"
could you try like this:
content: JSON.stringify(c)
TWX always has some special behavior with json-arrays, resulting in a wrapped array in a json object {array:[<originalarray>]}
Thx, unfortunately, it produces the same error.
