I want to send this string inside a CURL request from shell script :
"google-site-verification=O_Kd7lqvCvpBz7fzEeUKGVKBmsAsfJgaJuh3PZRnrsk"
To do that I'm using this script :
OVH_HTTP_METHOD="POST"
OVH_HTTP_QUERY="$OVH_API_URL/$OVH_API_END_POINT_DOMAIN_ZONE_DNS/domain.com/$OVH_API_END_POINT_DOMAIN_ZONE_DNS_RECORD"
OVH_FIELD_TYPE="TXT"
OVH_SUB_DOMAIN=""
OVH_TARGET=""google-site-verification=O_Kd7lqvCvpBz7fzEeUKGVKBmsAsfJgaJuh3PZRnrsk""
OVH_HTTP_BODY="{\"fieldType\":\"$OVH_FIELD_TYPE\",\"subDomain\":\"$OVH_SUB_DOMAIN\",\"target\":\"$OVH_TARGET\"}"
curl -X $OVH_HTTP_METHOD \
$OVH_HTTP_QUERY \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "X-Ovh-Application: $OVH_API_APPLICATION_KEY" \
-H "X-Ovh-Timestamp: $OVH_TIME" \
-H "X-Ovh-Signature: $OVH_SIG" \
-H "X-Ovh-Consumer: $OVH_API_CONSUMER_KEY" \
--data "$OVH_HTTP_BODY"
But I get systematically this error message :
{"message":"Invalid JSON received","httpCode":"400 Bad Request","errorCode":"INVALID_JSON"}
UPDATE with curl -v :
Do you have any idea to solve that?
Thanks
L.
solution found below : variable has to be escaped like this :
OVH_TARGET="\\\"google-site-verification=O_Kd7lqvCvpBz7fzEeUKGVKBmsAsfJgaJuh3PZRnrsk\\\""

I want to call REST API by passing json input.
I have following details-
username
apitoken
apiurl
Jsonfile
I have already tried
curl -d #Metadata.json -H "Content-Type: application/json" <> --user xyz:apitoken --insecure
but i m getting null values for all the parameters in the json file.
What am i doing wrong here?
Simple Solution would be to create a sample postman with above details then follow below steps -
Click on the code icon.
Choose cURL from the drop-down.
There’s your cURL command
Sample curl command -
curl -X POST \
https://something.com/endpoint \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Postman-Token: 1f0fcc007739' \
-H 'apikey: CSZftBtR0WaN' \
-H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
-d '{
"Id": "5de675",
"xxxxx": "500081"
}'
I try trigger below script and send notification to mobile using parse. Below is my script.
curl -X POST \
-H "X-Parse-Application-Id:app-id-here" \
-H "X-Parse-REST-API-Key:rest-key-here" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "data": {"alert": "A test notification from Parse!"}}' \
https://api.parse.com/1/push
and i got error as below:
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: \ {"code":107,"error":"invalid json: { data: {alert:A"}
whats wrong with my json data?
So the main issue is that the 'script' needs to be on multiple lines if the backslash marks (\) are present, and there cannot be any spaces after backslashes. I've edited your question to format it correctly, and it works.. returning a better error.
{"code":115,"error":"Missing the push channels."}
You just need to alter the JSON to include a channel or a query to push to, based on the docs here: https://parse.com/docs/push_guide#sending-channels/REST
curl -X POST \
-H "X-Parse-Application-Id:app-id-here" \
-H "X-Parse-REST-API-Key:rest-key-here" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "channels": ["Giants"], "data": {"alert": "A test notification from Parse!"}}' \
https://api.parse.com/1/push
I am trying to upload a JSON file using Parse's REST API with no success so far.
The request I am trying to make is the following:
curl -X POST \
-H "X-Parse-Application-Id: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" \
-H "X-Parse-REST-API-Key: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "name" : "myName" }' \
https://api.parse.com/1/files/test.json
The reponse is as follows:
{"code":1,"error":"internal error"}
I believe my request is correct, the JSON is valid, my Application ID and REST API Key are also correct.
To top it off, I can successfully upload an invalid JSON. For example, the same request with an invalid JSON:
curl -X POST \
-H "X-Parse-Application-Id: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" \
-H "X-Parse-REST-API-Key: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '#{ "name" : "myName" }' \
https://api.parse.com/1/files/test.json
Returns a correct reponse JSON:
{
"url":"http://files.parsetfss.com/e88af32e-2e48-400b-aa1c-2f167f3d2785/tfss-550782bd-718c-46b1-bac1-9e366f957d7a-test.json",
"name":"tfss-550782bd-718c-46b1-bac1-9e366f957d7a-test.json"
}
Has anyone had similar problems, or could anyone point me what I am doing wrong?
[]'s!
For Prase REST API, we can have
curl -X GET \
-H "X-Parse-Application-Id: Y6i5v9PQOAAGlnKnULJJu5odT72ffSCpOnqqPhx9" \
-H "X-Parse-REST-API-Key: T6STkwY6XqVMySTbqeSZfmli3naZZK9KoxnAcEhR" \
-G \
--data-url-encode 'where={"username":"someUser"}' \
https://api.parse.com/1/users
Now I'm trying to send the request without --data-url-encode, but to append the related query into the URL https://api.parse.com/1/users, what shall I do?
I tried
curl -X GET \
-H "X-Parse-Application-Id: Y6i5v9PQOAAGlnKnULJJu5odT72ffSCpOnqqPhx9" \
-H "X-Parse-REST-API-Key: T6STkwY6XqVMySTbqeSZfmli3naZZK9KoxnAcEhR" \
-G \
https://api.parse.com/1/users?where={"username":"someUser"}
but it doesn't work.
Thank you.
First encode where={"username":"someUser"} to where%3D%7B%22username%22%3A%22someUser%22%7D, then
curl -X GET \
-H "X-Parse-Application-Id: Y6i5v9PQOAAGlnKnULJJu5odT72ffSCpOnqqPhx9" \
-H "X-Parse-REST-API-Key: T6STkwY6XqVMySTbqeSZfmli3naZZK9KoxnAcEhR" \
-G \
https://api.parse.com/1/users?where%3D%7B%22username%22%3A%22someUser%22%7D
works
I can successfully create a place via curl executing the following command:
$ curl -vX POST https://server/api/v1/places.json -d "
auth_token=B8dsbz4HExMskqUa6Qhn& \
place[name]=Fuelstation Central& \
place[city]=Grossbeeren& \
place[address]=Buschweg 1& \
place[latitude]=52.3601& \
place[longitude]=13.3332& \
place[washing]=true& \
place[founded_at_year]=2000& \
place[products][]=diesel& \
place[products][]=benzin \
"
The server returns HTTP/1.1 201 Created.
Now I want to store the payload in a JSON file which looks like this:
// testplace.json
{
"auth_token" : "B8dsbz4HExMskqUa6Qhn",
"name" : "Fuelstation Central",
"city" : "Grossbeeren",
"address" : "Buschweg 1",
"latitude" : 52.3601,
"longitude" : 13.3332,
"washing" : true,
"founded_at_year" : 2000,
"products" : ["diesel","benzin"]
}
So I modify the command to be executed like this:
$ curl -vX POST http://server/api/v1/places.json -d #testplace.json
This fails returning HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized. Why?
curl sends POST requests with the default content type of application/x-www-form-urlencoded. If you want to send a JSON request, you will have to specify the correct content type header:
$ curl -vX POST http://server/api/v1/places.json -d #testplace.json \
--header "Content-Type: application/json"
But that will only work if the server accepts json input. The .json at the end of the url may only indicate that the output is json, it doesn't necessarily mean that it also will handle json input. The API documentation should give you a hint on whether it does or not.
The reason you get a 401 and not some other error is probably because the server can't extract the auth_token from your request.
To clarify how to actually specify a file that contains the JSON to post, note that it's with the # sign as shown in the OP
e.g. a typical post to a local .NET Core API:
curl -X POST https://localhost:5001/api -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d #/some/directory/some.json
You can cat the contents of a json file to curl via the --data-raw parameter
curl https://api.com/route -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data-raw "$(cat ~/.json/payload-2022-03-03.json | grep -v '^\s*//')"
curl https://api.com/route -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d #<(jq . ~/.json/payload-2022-03-03.json)
curl https://api.com/route -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d #<(jq '{"payload": .}' < ~/.json/payload-2022-03-03.json)
Note: comments in the json file are filtered out via grep -v '^\s*//'
You can also pass the data to curl via stdin using grep or cat or jq
grep -v '^\s*//' ~/.json/payload-2022-03-03.json | curl https://api.com/route -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d #-
cat ~/.json/payload-2022-03-03.json | grep -v '^\s*//' | curl https://api.com/route -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d #-
jq . ~/.json/payload-2022-03-03.json | curl https://api.com/route -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d #-
jq '{"payload": .}' < ~/.json/payload-2022-03-03.json | curl https://api.com/route -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d #-
