Hello Scott!
Thank you so much for all of your contributions to the world. Your generosity in sharing your knowledge and time are a tremendous asset to everyone. We are huge fans of yours here at The Villages.
I have been working on invoking the HTTPAPI command from an IBM I command line, and while I can get it to make the connection to the outside server, it is only returning a listing of the available
Methods, and not the .xml data I am looking for. I have tried multiple ways, and so far, all I get is the same result.
Here is an example of a “get” I have been running. Any advice, and/or help you can offer will be GREATLY appreciated.
HTTPAPI URL('http://ghp.ghin.com/GHPOnline/DataServices/golferMethods.asmx?/op=ClubRoster username=********** password=********** association=*** club=*** service=*** activeOnly=***** includeLowHandicapIndex=*****
includeCombinedClubs=***** returnDistinctMembers=***** type3Only=*****') DOWNLOAD('/meskerr/GHPClubData_Test_04-13-2017_17.xml')
REQTYPE(*GET)
TYPE('text/xml')
PROXYUSER('**********')
PROXYPASS('**********')
DEBUG('/meskerr/xmldebug1H/')
Everything in the URL between the ClubRoster? and the DOWNLOAD are parameters required to access and return the xml data to the IBM I IFS folder. I asterisked out all of the sensitive data within
the URL string. Do the parameters within the URL string have to be single or double quoted? I have tried multiple variations of the command, using both Get & Post, and so far, I have not been successful in getting any of them to return the actual data.
NOTE: I even tried SoapUI tool, and still received the same results there.
Best regards,
