Issue with supplier matching service

[mcenac]

I'm trying to follow the documentation here

https://developer.visa.com/capabilities/suppliermatchingservice/reference#suppliermatchingservice__s...

but I'm unable to get it to work and the error messages aren't helpful.

I'm attempting to make the request listed in the documentation:

$ curl -X POST 'https://sandbox.api.visa.com/visasuppliermatchingservice/v1/search?supplierName=supplier1&supplierCountryCode=840' \
> -H 'Accept: application/json' \
> -H 'Authorization: Basic myBase64EncodedUsername:Password'  \
> -H 'Content-Length: 0' \
> --cert mycert.pem  \
> --key mykey.pem
{
            "errorResponse": {
            "status": 400,
            "message": "Bad Request : Message Validation Failed",
            "details": [{
            "message": " should be valid"
            }]
            }
            }

I'm sending the Content-Length: 0 as a header b/c if I don't, the server responds with a HTTP/1.1 411 Length Required

Any help on getting this working would be appreciated!

Hey @mcenac,

I'm happy to help resolve your issue! For me to help, please provide the following information:

1. Endpoint
2. Request Header
3. Request Body
4. Response Header (include the x-correlation-id)
5. Response Body

Using SoapUI, you can find the x-correlation-id in the Raw Tab of the response header.

Hey @mcenac,

This seems to be caused because the required parameters are not passed in the Request payload. To resolve the issue, please enter in a Request payload with the required parameters.

After some tinkering, I was able to figure out how to make this work by sending an empty JSON object in the HTTP body:

curl -X POST 'https://sandbox.api.visa.com/visasuppliermatchingservice/v1/search?supplierName=supplier1&supplierCountryCode=840' \
-d '{}' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Accept: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Basic myBase64EncodedUsername:Password' \
--cert mycert.pem \
--key mykey.pem

So it seems that the required URL parameters and some HTTP body payload is required to complete the request successfully.
