HTTP PUT in Groovy

[Borja Tortosa]

Good evening,

I have been trying to send a PUT request to the Confluence API using a groovy script, It works fine if I use curl but I am not able to do it with the following code. I always get a 403.

---

def putFunction(){

    try {

    def put    = new URL("https://URLREQUESTED.atlassian.net/wiki/rest/api/content/3290431880").openConnection();

    def auth    = "username:token".bytes.encodeBase64()

    def message = '<p>TEST TEST TEST</p>'

    put.setRequestMethod("PUT")

    put.setDoOutput(true)

    put.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/json")

    put.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic" + "${auth}")

    put.getOutputStream().write(message.getBytes("UTF-8"));

    def putRC = put.getResponseCode();

    println(putRC);

        if (putRC.equals(200)) {

            println(put.getInputStream().getText());

        }

    }   catch (Exception e) {

    e.printStackTrace()

    }

}

What am I doing wrong here?  I've done a get with the same method and it works fine.

Thanks for your help, best regards.

Hi @Borja Tortosa . It's hard to say. What is the error code? What is the error message? Did you provide all necessary parameters for the  PUT request?

I am getting a 403, but I did provide the authorization:

def auth         = "admin@admin:token".bytes.encodeBase64()

I get no error message, just the code :S, maybe the headers are incomplete?? 

I've tried several solutions that worked with curl but not with the custom method.

First thoughts:

1. You don't have a space in the line 

"Basic" + "${auth}"

 after "Basic". Should be "Basic " (space before last quote).

Right now you have

Basicusername:token

Should be

Basic username:token

2. Are you sure about  ?

def auth    = "username:token".bytes.encodeBase64()

  Did you try?

def auth    = "username:token"
