Export Cucumber file via Xray API with python, error 406

Question

Hi!

I'm currently developing a python application in which I need to export a test defined in Cucumber. To do so I want to make a request to the XRAY API and save the .feature file in the respective project repository.

In https://docs.getxray.app/display/XRAY/Exporting+Cucumber+Tests+-+REST, a GET command GET /rest/raven/1.0/export/test is presented, and by its description it matches precisely what I intend to do.

In my case, I just do in python get('/rest/raven/1.0/export/test?keys=key'), but it gives me the error "406 Client Error". What am I doing wrong?

I'm using JIRA/XRAY server.

Thanks in advance!

Hi!

I'm using Xray Server. And yes, I do a prior authentication. This is the only command reported in the Xray documentation that does not work. Until now I managed to access and process all sorts of that in JIRA/Xray via REST API.

Hi @DanielPalaio ,

if you're using Xray Cloud, the proper documentation is this one.

Please note that you must do an authentication request beforehand.
