Hello,
First, to warn, I am not a programmer and knowledge of url query strings/headers/json is very limited.
I am trying to configure event forwarding to another service, other service expects POST data in the form:
http://localhost/phl2api?dtype=TF&data=
Where the json data follows immediately after 'data='.
I have the following in conf/traccar.xml:
<entry key='event.forward.url'>http://localhost/phl2api?dtype=TF&data=</entry>
But in the logs of the receiving service I see this:
(phlapi) POST Error: Error! Empty data string.
and
phl2api POST Data Received: dtype=TF&data=&{"event":{"id":1227,"attri....
That extra ampersand immediately after 'data=' causes the data parameter to appear empty.
Can someone please help me, what is the correct formatting to use? I'm aware I may be missing something that may seem very fundamental and basic to others, so thank you for your patience.
What you are asking is not possible at the moment. JSON data is sent in the request body, not query parameter.
