Quote 2.0: Post requests of a Rest Client

[Lola_234]

Dear SAP Community,

I am currently sending a post request with the following command in an if loop : 

RestClient.Post(url, data, headers) . The paramaters url, data and headers are already specified . The problem is that i have further commands after sending the request from the CPQ system in the if loop, that I want to execute. Once The RestClient is run, the further requests are no longer executed. 

Does anyone have any suggestions or idea, where or how I can solve such an issue ?

Best regards

May you please post the complete IronPython codes that you wrote for loop logic?

Hi Cyrine,

It seems like you are attempting to include error messages in the event of a failed API call. If this is the case, it is likely that the scenario will occur when the RestClient.Post execution encounters errors such as HTTP 400/500 errors. In order to handle these potential errors, you will need to use a "try" command to catch them. Otherwise, the script will halt execution when an error occurs.

Sample syntax: 

try:
    response = RestClient.Post(url, data, headers)

except Exception as e:
    context.Quote.AddMessage("message text", MessageLevel.Error, True)

When it comes to "loop" logic, you will need to incorporate "if" logic within a "for" loop.

Best Regards

Hi Fancy,

The command context.Quote.AddMessage("Message text", MessageLevel.Error, True) is not considered as an error handling command , it should be actually executed after the sucessful call of the API to inform the user that the post request was sucessful. That's why i am not getting why the post request is blocking any further commands.

Best regards

Hi, please incorporate "if" logic within a "for" loop. "if" is only a criteria judgement, not a loop.

Hi Fancy, 

if myvariable  == myvalue:
response = RestClient.Post(url, data, headers)
context.Quote.AddMessage("message text", MessageLevel.Error, True)

The post request is running perfectly but the next command won't be executed.

Best regards
