On my current project we have been making extensive use of the RestClient and HttpClient to make API

calls from PB 2019 to various Controllers in SnapObjects.  

You can send datastores, strings, numbers, etc to through these calls as parameters.

What we have not been able to do is send arrays or rather we don't know how to send them.

 

Has anyone done this ?  Could you paste an example ?

Hi Miller,

 

I suggest you download our demo code from Github. The demo is also to show you how to use the RestClient and HttpClient to make API calls from PB 2019 R2 Beta to various Controllers in SnapObjects.

C# code

Mike S,

 

Can you provide a sample RestClient call or HTTPClient call with a json as an example

http.SendRequest ( methodName, urlName, <YourJsonData> )



You send the json array (or any data) as DATA (request body), not part of the url.
