RESTBinaryResult – with the BASE64 encoded result body- How to decode this?
-
6 years ago #16526
Hi Team,
I have a rest service that I am consuming. It has content-type ‘application/xml’. As I see in the simplifier documentation for connector calls, when the content type is ‘application/xml’, then the service will return the response with following 3 keys:
1)RESTBinaryResult – with the BASE64 encoded result body
2)RESTTextResult (returns only if it can be displayed as text)
3)content-Type – mime type of result bodyI am not getting any clue, how can I extract the useful data from it. Do I need to decode this. If yes, please suggest how we can decode this type of response in simplifier.

yes you need to decode the data.
the best way to do this is using a business object.
Please find attached an example how to do this.
// read xml with connector var result = Simplifier.Connector.TestXML.getXML().result; output.result = result; //convert RESTTextResult(xml) to javascript object //convert xml to json var RESTTextResultJSON = Simplifier.Util.xml2json(result.RESTTextResult); //parse json to javascript object var RESTTextResult = JSON.parse(RESTTextResultJSON); //output data output.RESTTextResult = RESTTextResult; //convert RESTBinaryResult(base64) to javascript object //convert base64 to xml RESTBinaryResultXML = Simplifier.Util.decodeBase64(result.RESTBinaryResult); //convert xml to json var RESTBinaryResultJSON = Simplifier.Util.xml2json(RESTBinaryResultXML); //parse json to javascript object var RESTBinaryResult = JSON.parse(RESTBinaryResultJSON); //output data output.RESTBinaryResult = RESTBinaryResult;
