Invalid request payload error

[kadnan]

On adding banner I get Invalid request error. Code is given below:

 $bannerInfo = array(    'bannerId' => (int)$bannerId,
                                       'campaignId' => (int)$campaignId,
                                       'bannerName' => $bannerName,
                                      // 'storageType' => 'string',
                                       'imageURL' => $imageURL,
                                       'htmlTemplate' => '',
                                       'width'  => 0,
                                       'height' => 0,
                                       'weight' => 0,
                                       'target' => '_blank',
                                       'url' => $url,
                                       'bannerText' => $bannerText,
                                       'status' => (int)$status,
                                      // 'adserver' => 'string',
                                       'transparent' => 0,
                                      // 'capping' => 'integer',
                                      // 'sessionCapping' => 'integer',
                                      // 'block' => 'integer',
                                       'aImage' => $aImage,
                                     //  'aBackupImage' => 'custom',
                                       'comments' => $comments,
                                       'alt' => $alt,
                                       'filename' => $filearray['name'],
                                      // 'append' => 'string',
                                      // 'prepend' => 'string',
                                       );

It throws following exception:

Invalid request payload: xmlrpc element NIL cannot be child of VALUE

[mbeccati]

That's what I do in a project that uses this api client:

use fXmlRpc\Client,
    fXmlRpc\ExtensionSupportInterface,
    fXmlRpc\Serializer\XmlWriterSerializer;

use OpenXApiClient\OpenXApiClient;

...

        $serializer = new XmlWriterSerializer;
        $serializer->disableExtension(ExtensionSupportInterface::EXTENSION_NIL);
        $client = new Client($url, null, null, $serializer);
        return new OpenXApiClient($client, $user, $pass);

When I have some time, I'll speak to @Rohea about fixing some remaining bugs and moving the project to the Revive Adserver repo.

[kadnan]

I am not getting how is it related with my issue? any workaround of my problem? is it issue at OpenX RPC end? Is there anyway I can print XML payload?

[mbeccati]

The OpenX/Revive API doesn't support NIL elements. That's why I disable them in the serializer of the client.

[kadnan]

But what Element is actually goin Nil? I did paste the array structure I am sending. What am I missing?

[mbeccati]

There are quite a few things commented out, so all of them maybe? ;)

[kadnan]

Right, one of my dev friend was working on it, I will take care of it and test myself with payload. How do I know what fields re necessary to send and what not?

[mbeccati]

There's currently no APi doc available, so you can either do trial & error or look up the Revive source code. But then agin, you'd currently need something like the above in order to avoid having to send the optional fields.

@mbeccati You can grab this under the Revive project namespace whenever you want. Probably you want to rename from OpenX to Revive at the same time too? We also have a reference to this in Packagist.org so just let me know when you wish to do the change and I'll do what I can to make sure people find the official version.

My problem was solved by following NEW 'storageType' =>'html', //'url' => $url, //'comments' => $comments, //'alt' => $alt OLD 'storageType' =>'img', 'url' => $url, 'comments' => $comments, 'alt' => $alt
