Sabre api revalidate service unavailable? - rest

Question

I am trying to use the REST Revalidate Itinerary service provided by Sabre.If you have access to the sabre developer site, you can find the details here:
https://developer.sabre.com/docs/read/rest_apis/air/search/revalidate_itinerary
I am posting to api.sabre.com/v3.3.0/shop/flights/revalidate as instructed, but I am getting a 404 back with the message that "No service exists" at that URL.
Has anyone been able to get this to work, or does anyone know the correct URL?
Updated with the raw response, obtained using Fiddler:

Answer 1

You should probably not start using the endpoint you are using. According to the https://developer.sabre.com/resources/api_versioning it gets switched to https://api.havail.sabre.com by mid of the year. I guess you already use https?
Besides that it works for me when taking the sample payload and adjusting it for real data. Can you provide your header/payload?

Answer 2

Turns out it didn't like the querystring '?mode=live'. If I remove that, I get a response. We use that string in all our other REST requests to shop/flights/ but looks like it's not valid in this circumstance.
Also, thanks to Thomas for his help
