I'm trying to get thumbnail from Forge API here
https://forge.autodesk.com/en/docs/model-derivative/v2/reference/http/thumbnails/urn-thumbnail-GET/
`
I got it with Postman and axios successfully, and I tried it with RestSharp, HttpClient and GetThumbnail from DerivativesApi (Autodesk.Forge) in C# but only got status code 202 with message:
{"Result":"The thumbnail generating for this graph node is pending"}
I realized that RestSharp and HttpClient only receive code 202 and return results. I don't know how I can wait for code 200 and thumbnail.
Can anyone help me?
This is my code:
var request = new RestRequest($"https://developer.api.autodesk.com/modelderivative/v2/designdata/{nameHash}/thumbnail", Method.GET);
request.AddHeader("Authorization", $"Bearer {oauth.access_token}");
var client = new RestClient();
var restRes = client.Execute(request);
The 202 code typically indicates that the request has been accepted but the response is not available yet. Is it possible that you're asking for a thumbnail of a file that is still being processed by the Model Derivative service? Try inspecting the response headers, and see if there's one called x-ads-job-status which (according to the documentation) should tell you the status of the processing.

We have a Flask API that talks to multiple sources, a web app, and an external source. In the web app, we use AJAX to send a JSON post to the API which is successful. From an external source, whether it's postman or the VaRest Unreal Engine plugin, we get a 400 Error: Bad Request even though we use the correct content-type header.
If anyone can help us figure out why the posts we are sending aren't properly identified we would really appreciate it.
Thanks
This is the JS code from our web app, used to create the JSON which is sent through AJAX (this is the successful code)
var but1 = document.getElementById('but1');
const data1 = {
number: 1 ,
type: 1 ,
value: 100
}
but1.addEventListener("click", function() {
$.post(url, data1);
});
This is a post route in our python API that takes in the input and saves it to a file we have
#app.route('/button', methods=['POST'])
def button():
buttonLog = open("buttonLog.txt", "w")
buttonLog.write(request.form['number'])
buttonLog.close()
typeOf = int(request.form['type'])
value = int(request.form['value'])
return "success"
Here is our JSON post, with headers
Postman JSON
Postman Headers
The AJAX post works as intended, but the postman post/Unreal engine post are not being seen as "posts" to the API.
I have a Qt program that stores all my small (tiny) company information on a sql database and I have over the years tailored it to do all my accounting stuff, invoices, BOMs etc.
At the push of a button I can get all of the necessary sql data to calculate a quarterly VAT return, but we're going to have to electronically submit all the data now, not just calculate it. I have all the data needed, it's just a case of submitting over HTTP using json (of which I know a little/nothing about respectively).
I'm small enough so that I don't have to do this submission at the moment, but the time will likely come, so I'm trying the most basic of requests in the HMRC's sandbox as a starting point.
On this page it shows you how to do an hello world request in Java, so I'm trying to do the same with Qt with C++.
I've tried the following which responds to the push of a button and I have of course, set up a slot to deal with a response:
void MainWindow::hello()
{
QJsonObject json;
QString rs("https://test-api.service.hmrc.gov.uk/hello/world");
QNetworkRequest request
{
QUrl(rs)
};
request.setHeader(QNetworkRequest::ContentTypeHeader,"application/vnd.hmrc.1.0+json");
request.setUrl(QUrl(rs));
manager->get(request);
}
and the main window init:
manager = new QNetworkAccessManager();
QObject::connect
(manager, &QNetworkAccessManager::finished, this, [=](QNetworkReply *reply)
{
if (reply->error())
{
ui->debugText->appendHtml(reply->errorString());
return;
}
QString answer = reply->readAll();
ui->debugText->appendHtml(answer);
}
);
To which I get the reply:
Error transferring https://test-api.service.hmrc.gov.uk/hello/world -
server replied: Not Acceptable
I assume that means I am communicating with the sever now, but I do not know what this terse error message means!
The Java on the HMRC web page is as follows:
// construct the GET request for our Hello World endpoint
HttpClient client = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();
HttpGet request = new HttpGet(
"https://test-api.service.hmrc.gov.uk/hello/world");
request.addHeader("Accept", "application/vnd.hmrc.1.0+json");
// execute the request
HttpResponse response = client.execute(request);
// extract the HTTP status code and response body
int statusCode = response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
String responseBody = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
Is that enough information for someone to point me in the right direction of what I'm doing wrong please? Suspect I am missing a fundamental point here.
In your Java example, you are setting the HTTP header "Accept". In your C++/Qt snippet, your are setting the "Content-Type" header.
You may want to adapt your code like this to match your Java working example:
QNetworkRequest request { QUrl(rs) };
request.setRawHeader(QByteArray("Accept"), QByteArray("application/vnd.hmrc.1.0+json"));
manager->get(request);
I am trying to pass parameters to a server and extract the report in csv format. So the code i have has PUT/GET/POST in the order. I could get GET and POST work, but when i add PUT there is no error just blank screen.
String output1 = null;
URL url = new URL("http://<servername>/biprws/raylight/v1/documents/12345/parameters");
HttpURLConnection conn1 = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
conn1.setRequestMethod("PUT");
conn1.setRequestProperty("Accept", "application/json");
conn1.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=utf-8");
conn1.setDoInput(true);
conn1.setDoOutput(true);
String body = "<parameters><parameter><id>0</id><answer><values><value>EN</value></values></answer></parameter></parameters>";
int len1 = body.length();
conn1.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", Integer.toString(len1));
conn1.connect();
OutputStreamWriter out1 = new OutputStreamWriter(conn1.getOutputStream());
out1.write(body, 0, len1);
out1.flush();
What i am trying to do is pass parameter EN to the report and refresh it, take the output in csv using GET. POST is used for login to the server. I could make GET and POST work and get the output in CSV but not refreshed one.
Appreciate very much any help here.
Thanks,

What is the response code from the server when using PUT?
A PUT may not actually return a body to display on the screen; often times a PUT will only return a 200 or 204 response code. 204 would clearly mean that the server took the data and applied it, but is not sending you anything back, 200/201 may include a response, but maybe not. It depends on the folks who implemented the API.
https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html (section 9.6)
Should a RESTful 'PUT' operation return something
I'm using Ember-Data 1.0.0.Beta-9 and Ember 1.7 to consume a REST API via DreamFactory's REST Platform. (http://www.dreamfactory.com).
I've had to extend the RESTAdapter in order to use DF and I've been able to implement GET and POST requests with no problems. I am now trying to implement model.save() (PUT) requests and am having a serious hiccup.
Calling model.save() sends the PUT request with the correct data to my API endpoint and I get a 200 OK response with a JSON response of { "id": "1" } which is what is supposed to happen. However when I try to access the updated record all of the properties are empty except for ID and the record on the server is not updated. I can take the same JSON string passed in the request, paste it into the DreamFactory Swagger API Docs and it works no problem - response is good and the record is updated on the DB.
I've created a JSBin to show all of the code at http://emberjs.jsbin.com/nagoga/1/edit
Unfortunately I can't have a live example as the servers in question are locked down to only accept requests from our company's public IP range.
DreamFactory provides a live demo of the API in question at
https://dsp-sandman1.cloud.dreamfactory.com/swagger/#!/db/replaceRecordsByIds
OK in the end I discovered that you can customize the DreamFactory response by adding a ?fields=* param to the end of the PUT request. I monkey-patched that into my updateRecord method using the following:
updateRecord: function(store, type, record) {
var data = {};
var serializer = store.serializerFor(type.typeKey);
serializer.serializeIntoHash(data, type, record);
var adapter = this;
return new Ember.RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
// hack to make DSP send back the full object
adapter.ajax(adapter.buildURL(type.typeKey) + '?fields=*', "PUT", { data: data }).then(function(json){
// if the request is a success we'll return the same data we passed in
resolve(json);
}, function(reason){
reject(reason.responseJSON);
});
});
}
And poof we haz updates!
DreamFactory has support for tacking several params onto the end of the requests to fully customize the response - at some point I will look to implement this correctly but for the time being I can move forward with my project. Yay!
EmberData is interpreting the response from the server as an empty object with an id of "1" an no other properties in it. You need to return the entire new object back from the server with the changes reflected.
I am uploading a file to the server using BackgroundTransferRequest object. I need to access the response header sent from the server. Based on the research, I understand that there is no direct access to the Response of the request and one possible work around is to provide a download location to which the response content will be written.
However, when I try to do that, there is no data written to that file and its 0 bytes. My request server is actually sending a response having ONLY the headers (without any content).
So my question is, does the response have to have body in order to get the response written to the DownloadLocation?
My code sample:
var request = new BackgroundTransferRequest(targetUri)
{
DownloadLocation = new Uri(downloadTo, UriKind.Relative),
UploadLocation = new Uri(uploadFrom, UriKind.Relative),
Method = "POST"
};
