Hi all,

I am trying to call custom endpoint from dashboard JavaScript file on user interaction (This is a setup page).

python_code.py

 

 

class TestAndSaveOrUpdateCredentials(PersistentServerConnectionApplication):
    def __init__(self, command_line, command_arg):
        super(PersistentServerConnectionApplication, self).__init__()

    def handle(self, in_string):
        return {
         "payload":in_string,
         "status": 200
        }

 

 

restmap.conf

 

 

[script:test_endpoint]
match = /testing-123
script = python_code.py
scripttype = persist
handler = python_code.TestAndSaveOrUpdateCredentials
passHttpHeaders = true
output_modes = json
passHttpCookies = true

 

 

web.conf

 

 

[expose:test_endpoint]
methods = GET, POST
pattern = testing-123

 

 

JavaScript

 

 

const appNamespace = {
    owner: "", # Tried with admin,nobady
    app: "", # Tried with app_name
    sharing: "global", # tried with 'app'
}
const http = new splunkjs.SplunkWebHttp();
const service = new splunkjs.Service(
        http,
        appNamespace,
    );
service.get("testing-123")
//service.get("services/testing-123")

 

 

 

 

I am able to call localhost:8089/services/testing-123 from postman, but from JavaScript seeing this error

 

 

{"messages":[{"type":"ERROR","text":"JSON reply had no \"payload\" value"}]}

 

 

 

Please let me know where I am doing wrong

Thanks.
