Setup via REST API

[Venzi_]

Hi, I’m trying to create and apply setups via REST API.

Using the integrated API reference there is no problem.

Trying it with Node-Red I get response code 405.

Is this issue related to my code or to the permissions of Node-Red?

Thanks,

Venzi

Hi @Venzi_ ,

Status code 405 indicates an unsupported request method. Are you sending a POST request as in the API reference? It looks like your Node-RED request node is named "PUT GVL_OPC/start".

Thanks a lot, @Sgilk! I used in fact PUT instead of POST causing the problem.

My next problem is how to form the header and the multipart/form-data request body for sending /apply POST in my function node.

I guess, the POST node has to be set to UTF-8 as well?

I've got it solved. Not really clear to me yet which permissions exactly are required for which task. A separete permission category might be helpful. It worked with full access.

My example attached.
