Hello,

assuming i do have a connector call that does create a new entry in a database which looks something like this (see picture):

How to formulate the business object function so that:

1. csrf token is handed over

2. the “postBody” is also inserted.

 

Simplifier.Connector.ExampleConnector.createEntry(

“x-csrf-token”: getTokenFromAGETRequest,

“postBody”: oNewEntry

)

doesn’t really work, it produces the error “expected ) instead saw :”.

How to add this two things “x-csrf-token” and “postBody” to a connector call? Should it both be part of the same object ?

Best regards

Hi Roman,

Have you checked if the data that you are sending in the postBody has a valid JSON format? Instead of sending the complete JSON object as a parameter, you can also split the postBody fields into several string input parameters, e.g., postBody/name, postBody/city etc. I included a screenshot of an example where several postBody parameters are used.

Regarding the csrf token: depending on the API that you’re using, authorization tokens sometimes need to be sent in the header parameters (see screenshot). Please check your API’s specifications.

 

In general, to execute a Connector call in a Server-Side Business Object function, you need to wrap the input parameters in an object:

 

var oResult = Simplifier.Connector.ConnectorName.callName({
paramName1: "your parameter value",
paramName2: calculateParameterValue()
});

 

I hope this information is helpful.
