Monitoring the upload of multiple contacts: 404 Object not found

[GregoryEstienne]

Hi Guillaume!

I am trying to monitor the process of uploading contacts and their subscription to contact lists (I am managing contact lists of around a thousand of contacts), but the sample code (https://dev.mailjet.com/guides/?java#monitoring-the-upload-of-multiple-contacts) does not seem to work on my side.

The java code: I provide the "JobID", returned by the previous "post" request, as parameter like documented:

request = new MailjetRequest(ContactManagemanycontacts.resource, 'actionid');
response = client.get(request);

It seems the request in JSON does not put the "JobID" in the "Action ID" field!? Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe the sample code is incorrect... My request: {"Filters":"{}","Body":"{}","Resource":"contact","Action":"managemanycontacts","ID":4370704,"Action ID":0} The response: {StatusCode=404, ErrorInfo=, ErrorMessage=Object not found}

Thanks for your help!

Hey ! That was a tricky one.

Usually, the Mailjet resources are formatted this way: /resource/id/action/actionID, This one is different, I assume the request that was sent in your case was /contact/actionid/managemanycontacts

Anyway, It should be fixed

Thanks for reporting this/these issue(s) :smile:

Hi Guillaume,

Thanks!

The method works fine now!

I don't know if it is a side effect of your latest changes but now I get an error when I delete my contact lists. Before the latest update of the jar I didn't get this error: code: MailjetRequest request = new MailjetRequest(Contactslist.resource, aContactListId); MailjetResponse response = mailjetClient.delete(request); request JSON: {"Action":"","Filters":"{}","Action ID":0,"Resource":"contactslist","ID":10536,"Body":"{}"} error: org.json.JSONException: A JSONObject text must begin with '{' at 1 [character 2 line 1]

On another subject, what is the best place to ask questions about the API? Like how to filter resources in my requests: I would like to get all newsletters that are not archived or deleted for instance? Do I need to get all the newsletter then sort them on their status myself? Is there a better way?

Thank you again for your help!

PS: I can close this issue now, but in order to allow you to respond I keep it opened. Just tell me if you want that I open another issue for my "delete error".

I just realize a more serious problem: the service does not return any campaign at all now, while I can see five of them at https://app.mailjet.com/campaigns!

Can you print what happen when you use the debugMode client.setDebug(MailjetClient.VERBOSE_DEBUG); ?

For the "delete error":

=== HTTP Request === DELETE https://api.mailjet.com/v3/REST/contactslist/10659?

Even if the operation is correctly interpreted: the status is 204.

For the "Get Campaigns" case:

[GregoryEstienne]

I guess I was dreaming when I thought I could retrieve all campaigns in a get request! I guess it is impossible?

I found another way to get the data that interest me... Forget about the problem of the "Get All Campaigns"!

[WeshGuillaume]

Ok, so the API doesn't seem to respond with a content and the wrapper is expecting a JSON object here, so your contactlists is deleted right ?

I'm going to add a condition is there no content back on a delete

[WeshGuillaume]

I added the following to prevent empty response to throw exceptions: https://github.com/mailjet/mailjet-apiv3-java/blob/master/src/main/java/com/mailjet/client/MailjetClient.java#L229

Here is the result

Thank you Guillaume!

Everything seems to be working fine now.
