in this site :https://developers.box.com/view/
I do follow the instruction in the example (use Postman or curl)
curl https://view-api.box.com/1/sessions \
-H "Authorization: Token YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"document_id": "ABC123"}' \
-X POST
YOUR_API_KEY is replaced by my api key
ABC123 is replaced by a my pdf file.
But I got result: {"message": "Unsupported media type 'application/json, application/x-www-form-urlencoded' in request.", "type": "error", "request_id": "1f3d91c9489247579c78e7ceaa5e67c8"}
Please help me.
Thank you
It looks like there is an issue with the spaces after your \ characters. If you try:
curl https://view-api.box.com/1/sessions \
-H "Authorization: Token APIKEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"document_id": "DOCID"}' \
-X POST
It should work.

I'm using the online Swagger Editor. When I send a request using "try it out", it generates this curl command:
curl -X 'POST' \
'https://coo.amazonaws.com/' \
-H 'accept: */*' \ # Extra one
-H 'X-Amz-Target: send by me ' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer "token"' \
-H 'Content-Type: application.1' \
-d '{
"AuthParameters": {
"USERNAME": "John",
"PASSWORD": "James"
},
Remove-H 'accept: */*' from header in the curl command.
I try to use cURL to upload a local file (e.g. docx, jpeg...) to GitHub repository? How can I specify the local file location and upload it to GitHub?
curl -X "PUT" \
-H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
-H "Authorization: token <token>" \
https://api.github.com/repos/BT23/demo-repo/contents/hello.txt \
-d '{
"message":"Upload this file to Git",
"committer":{"name":"Bon", "email":"bon#bon.com"},
"content":{"$(openssl base64 -A in $/temp/hello.txt)"}
}'
Thanks
As an alternative, you can separate the content encoding from the curl call.
See this gist
content=$(cat /temp/hello.txt | base64)
curl -X "PUT" \
-H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
-H "Authorization: token <token>" \
https://api.github.com/repos/BT23/demo-repo/contents/hello.txt \
-d '{
"message":"Upload this file to Git",
"committer":{"name":"Bon", "email":"bon#bon.com"},
"content":"${content}"}
}'
I am trying to add a custom code check for a PR. After doing some research I found out that it can be done using the API mentioned below.
POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/check-runs
Initially, it was giving me this error:
{
"message": "You must authenticate via a GitHub App.",
"documentation_url": "https://docs.github.com/rest/reference/checks#create-a-check-run"
}
I followed the guideline provided in this link.
I created a GitHub app.
Gave it required permission.
Generated a private key.
Generated a JWT token using the private key.
Installed the Github app in the repo too
I created a curl request:
curl --location --request POST 'https://api.github.com/repos/X/X-app/check-runs' \
--header 'Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiJ9.X.X-X-SAFvDnSkaJDjMI2T_BAC2iLlRZ7uNyFSe-X-UgFBFjoFrwsbcYFKfDM8f3FNPYpA6afhr18DLZ6rzu35klA' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
"name": "loremipsum"
}'
But, now I am getting this error
{
"message": "Bad credentials",
"documentation_url": "https://docs.github.com/rest"
}
I am not sure what I am missing here.
I figured this out. The GH documentation is a bit unclear/misleading. Here are the steps to make this work:
with the JWT bearer token, list your installations and note the installation id for your app
$ curl -i \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_JWT" \
-H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" \
https://api.github.com/app/installations
then get an installation access token for the above id
$ curl -i -X POST \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_JWT" \
-H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" \
https://api.github.com/app/installations/:installation_id/access_tokens
then with that token create the check run but use "Authorization: token" header
curl -i -H "Authorization: token YOUR_INSTALLATION_ACCESS_TOKEN"
I'm trying to find a way to add a label to a GitHub issue using the API. After checking the API documentation I tried the following curl request:
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: token OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" -H \
"Accept: application/vnd.github.symmetra-preview+json" \
-d #label.json https://api.github.com/repos/CHSUNSONG/star-platform/issues/11
label.json contains:
["submitted"]
However, I got the following response:
{
"message": "Invalid request.\n\nFor 'links/1/schema', [\"submitted\"] is not an object.",
"documentation_url": "https://developer.github.com/v3/issues/#edit-an-issue"
}
Why isn't this working and how can I fix it?
You're POSTing to the wrong URL. Add /labels onto the end:
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: token OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" -H \
"Accept: application/vnd.github.symmetra-preview+json" \
-d #label.json \
https://api.github.com/repos/CHSUNSONG/star-platform/issues/11/labels
I'm trying to run this request
curl -X POST \
'https://*****.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/_apis/wit/wiql?=&api-version=1.0' \
-H 'authorization: Basic *****' \
-H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-H 'postman-token: *****' \
-d '{
"query": "SELECT [System.Id] FROM WorkItems"
}'
but I keep getting this error
{"count":1,"value":{"Message":"A value is required but was not present in the request.\r\n"}}
It works as expected on Postman, so I think the request and the server are OK.
I'm trying to follow the first example shown here: https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/integrate/api/wit/wiql
Am I missing something?
The URL is wrong, remove =& from the REST API url and the url will be like this:
https://*****.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/_apis/wit/wiql?api-version=1.
