Subject: Re: [Ftpapi] replicating a curl request
I've been working on this off and on. I found the ADDL_HEADER and
created
the custom headers, I'll remove those for authorization. My biggest
issue
now is that using http_post_stmf(), it can't find my PDF.
I've tried changing CCSID, renaming the file to all uppercase, moving
it to my
personal IFS directory. It is returning 3025 on the stat command.
I've just upgraded to the latest version and will try again using
http_stmf
instead of the older http_post_stmf

This is a strange curl request... I don't think whomever wrote it

a regular curl user. For example, he's coding the authrorization
string manually instead of using curl's normal userid/password
parameters. And I don't understand why he's coding "no-cache"...
that would only make sense for a web browser, but he's using curl...
But, yeah... you can do this with HTTPAPI.
a) the content-type is a parameter, use that, do not code a custom
header.
b) likewise for authorization, use http_setAuth(), not a custom
header
c) For the custom headers you do need (file_name, table_name,
table_sys_id) you'll need to use an ADDL_HEADER exit procedure.
d) for the "data" parameter, just pass it in the upload data. If
using http_stmf or http_req, you just use the path to your PDF. If
you're using the older set of APIs, use http_post_stmf() to point to
your PDF.

All I need to replicate a curl request to upload a PDF to a site
from
the System I release 7.1. Could someone assist since even though
I’ve
used HTTPAPI for retrieving XML documents and posting them I
haven’t
used it for uploading a file, and since I don’t know curl, I’m
hoping
someone can translate what it is doing and provide some help. I’d
fight through it myself, but time is of the essence in providing a
System I solution. Thanks.
curl --request POST --url

document/pdf'
--header 'file_name: 29_March_2017.pdf' --header 'table_name:
