REST API Modular Input: Why am I unable to pull API data from this site with my current curl command?

[ankumar_juniper]

I am trying to pull some API data from Site24x7 site. My curl command is as below. I have input these values in REST API Modular Input, but still not getting any data. Mostly I am suspecting the http header properties I am passing. Please help?

curl  "https://www.site24x7.com/api/reports/sla_reports/availability?period={1}" \
                   -X GET -H "Accept: application/json; version=2.0" \
                   -H "Authorization: Zoho-authtoken xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Your CURL command has 2 headers defined , and in the stanza you’ve turned this into 3 delimited headers.

So try (notice the “;” after json)

Accept=application/json; version=2.0,Authorization=Zoho-authtoken xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Any errors are in the logs.

Hi Damien,

I am seeing bad request error in the logs, I am still

09-14-2016 20:21:59.874 -0700 ERROR ExecProcessor - message from "python /data/splunk/etc/apps/rest_ta/bin/rest.py" HTTP Request error: 400 Client Error: Bad Request

HTTP Header Properties:

Also tried below, Works in curl, but getting bad request from this app.

Accept= application/json,Authorization= Zoho-authtoken xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Ok i was able to resolve the issue,

The API URL = https://www.site24x7.com/api/reports/sla_reports/availability?period={1}

Change to below

https://www.site24x7.com/api/reports/sla_reports/availability?period=1
