I'm not sure what's wrong with the way I'm doing this...
I get a 400 Error saying it's a bad request, but I can't find anything wrong with my syntax.
$.ajax({
url : '/my_project/rest/runs/1234?token=moo',
type : 'POST',
data: { job_position : JSON.stringify(38) },
contentType: 'application/json',
dataType: 'json',
success : function(html) {
}
});
The receiving controller:
@RequestMapping(value="/runs/{userId}", method = RequestMethod.POST, consumes = {"application/json"})
public @ResponseBody boolean myMethod(@PathVariable String userId, @RequestParam("token") String authenticationToken, @RequestBody @Valid Long job_position){
return true;
}
Your not actually sending JSON in your request, jQuery will convert your object to a query string. To prevent this stringify it yourself.
$.ajax({
url : '/my_project/rest/runs/1234',
type : 'POST',
data: JSON.stringify({ job_position : 38, token: 'moo' }),
contentType: 'application/json',
dataType: 'json',
success : function(html) {
}
});
Is your data part missing quotes?
data: { "job_position" : JSON.stringify(38) }
Just a thought.
/my_project/rest/runs/1234?token=moo
- it's GET request sintax
make
url : '/my_project/rest/runs/1234'
and
data: { "job_position" : JSON.stringify(38) , "token" : "moo"}
so full request look like
$.ajax({
url : '/my_project/rest/runs/1234',
type : 'POST',
data: { "job_position" : 38, "token" : "moo"},
contentType: 'application/json',
dataType: 'json',
success : function(html) {
}
});
