API answers with wrong content #16

Hi, I'm trying to use the API to get information about a container, but the answer is always HTML, not JSON.

Log: Sending 'POST' request to URL : https://app.bic-boxtech.org/oauth/token 2018-08-24 12:52:30,299 [INFO] BicBoxtechService - Response Code : 200 2018-08-24 12:52:30,648 [INFO] BicBoxtechService - Sending 'GET' request to URL : https://app.bic-boxtech.org/api/container/GLDU5334260 2018-08-24 12:52:30,648 [INFO] BicBoxtechService - Response Code : 200 2018-08-24 12:52:35,876 [ERROR] BicBoxtechService - Error when trying to get container data from BIC. The answer was not JSON.

The answer from the server: <!DOCTYPE html>

No such app

What is wrong here? According to your API documentation, this should work.

Hi Jan, As you can see in the Swagger definition https://bic-boxtech.github.io/BIC-Boxtech-API-documentation/index.html the endpoint ends with .../api/v2.0

I have updated the README to mention endpoint .../api/v2.0 instead of .../api

Please confirm that your test works correctly with the v2.0 endpoint URL.

Thanks, Rupert

Hi Rupert, thank you for the very fast reply. I didn't see the change, sorry. I'm now getting a result but it looks different than in Swagger.

Congratulations ! ;)

We are in the processing of deploying a minor version with new container fields : they are not in the Swagger yet, since the formal deployment process is not yet complete. So you have more fields than in the Swagger doc, but you have no Alert information ... because there are no alerts on this container !

I hope this addresses your worries, Rupert
