CSRF Token Missing Error in Android OData Service

[Sharon_Shaji]

Hello everyone,

I’m currently facing an issue with my application. It works perfectly in Cloud Foundry (Web), but when I deploy it in Mobile Services (Android), I encounter a “CSRF token is missing” error when posting data.

I’m working on an Android application that interacts with an OData service, and I need guidance on retrieving the CSRF token. I understand that CSRF protection is crucial for secure API calls, but I’m unsure how to implement this in my Android app.

Could anyone provide a step-by-step approach or share code snippets on how to obtain the CSRF token for an OData service? I’ve checked my configurations and ensured that CSRF protection is enabled, but the problem persists.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any insights or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance for your help!

We are using an API for posting certain data. This API requires xcsrf token as a header parameter for successful post. But we are unable to generate xcsrf token in android. So, we want to ask is there any way to generate xcsrf token in android.
