REST connection testConnectionParams not working

[jralexander137]

Hi. I am trying to set up a connectionJson that doesn't use any authentication while including some test connection params in that connectionJson to actually test connectivity in the connectionJson. This is what I currently have but am not sure what I am overlooking here as I am not seeing any API response in the logs despite test connection returning successful.

{
"authentications": {
"userAuth": {
"url": "https://URL.com/SHPCustom/API/UserSecurity/GetAllUsers/?PageOffset=1&PageSizeLimit=1",
"httpMethod": "POST",
"httpParams": {},
"httpHeaders": {
"contentType": "application/json"
},
"httpContentType": "application/json",
"timeOutError": "Read timed out",
"errorPath": "errors.type",
"maxRefreshTryCount": 5,
"testConnectionParams": {
"responseColsToPropsMap": {},
"http": {
"url": "https://URL.com/SHPCustom/API/UserSecurity/GetAllUsers/?PageOffset=1&PageSizeLimit=1",
"httpMethod": "POST",
"requestBody": "",
"httpParams": "",
"httpHeaders": {},
"httpContentType": "application/json"
},
"successResponses": {
"statusCode": [
200,
201,
202,
203,
204,
205
]
}
}
}
}
}

@jralexander137 , if this is dummy ConnectionJSON then dont use testConnectionParams. It is not mandatory.

{
"authentications": {
"userAuth": {
"url": "https://URL.com/SHPCustom/API/UserSecurity/GetAllUsers/?PageOffset=1&PageSizeLimit=1",
"httpMethod": "POST",
"httpParams": {},
"httpHeaders": {
"contentType": "application/json"
},
"httpContentType": "application/json",
"timeOutError": "Read timed out",
"errorPath": "errors.type",
"maxRefreshTryCount": 5
}
}
}

So my reasoning behind using testConnectionParams is to just test connectivity to the system without bringing in any account data. Are you saying that if its a dummy connectionJson then I cant include testConnectionParams? Or just not required kind of thing.

[Amit_Malik]

not required kind of thing. I now understand why you are using it. 

Is that API call working in postman? if yes, I would say try to import couple of accounts.

Else enable debug logs for connector and share logs. 

[jralexander137]

How can I enable debug for a connection?

[Amit_Malik]

ConfigJSON

{
"connectionTimeoutConfig": {
"connectionTimeout": 10,
"readTimeout": 60,
"writeTimeout": 60,
"retryWait": 2,
"retryCount": 3

},
"showLogs": true
}

[jralexander137]

Right, forgot to add that config to connection. TestConnection with and without testConnectionParams doesnt show anything in the logs but I do see what appears to be a connectivity failure when trying to import accounts. Is there not someway to get testConnectionParams in connectionJson working?

[rushikeshvartak]

• Connection JSON logs does not print.
• Only Test connection params added in connection json prints in logs

[jralexander137]

Fair enough. This is the connectionJson i have with a testConnectionsParam value but not seeing anything  in the logs like i do when i try to do account import with the same endpoint. Nothing meaningful in logs showing why the testConnecitonParams might not be working.

{
"authentications": {
"userAuth": {
"url": "https://URL.com/SHPCustom/API/UserSecurity/GetAllUsers/?PageOffset=1&PageSizeLimit=1",
"httpMethod": "GET",
"httpParams": {},
"httpHeaders": {
"contentType": "application/json"
},
"httpContentType": "application/json",
"timeOutError": "Read timed out",
"errorPath": "errors.type",
"maxRefreshTryCount": 5,
"testConnectionParams": {
"http": {
"url": "https://URL.com/SHPCustom/API/UserSecurity/GetAllUsers/?PageOffset=1&PageSizeLimit=1",
"httpHeaders": {
"contentType": "application/json"
},
"httpContentType": "application/json",
"httpMethod": "GET"
},
"successResponse": {
"statusCode": [
200,
201,
202,
203,
204,
205
]
},
"successResponsePath": "ResponseMessage",
"errorPath": "ResponseMessage"
}
}
}
}

And  here is the acctEntImport config that gets entries in logs.

{"accountParams":{"connection":"userAuth","processingType":"SequentialAndIterative","call":{"call1":{"listField":"Users","keyField":"name","http":{"url":"https://URL.com/SHPCustom/API/UserSecurity/GetAllUsers/?PageOffset=1&PageSizeLimit=1","httpMethod":"GET","httpContentType":"application/json","httpHeaders":{}},"colsToPropsMap":{"name":"LoginId~#~char"}}}}}

CURL please

[jralexander137]

is the curl results in the screenshot not sufficient?

[rushikeshvartak]

How auth and content type is passed is not provided . Without adequate information it will be hard to suggest
