Hi,
I have a web API which needs I have a web API which expect plain XML in the request body. My following program pass the XML as form data instead of raw request payload. Where am I doing wrong?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Data Call</title>
<link href="kendo/styles/kendo.common.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="kendo/styles/kendo.default.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="kendo/js/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="kendo/js/kendo.web.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
type: "xml",
transport: {
read: {
type: 'POST',
dataType: "xml",
data: "xmlstring",
url: "https://9.9.9.9:8443/kendotest/api/GetAccounts",
data: { escape('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><accountrequest><accountno>23</accountno></accountrequest>')},
beforeSend: function(xhr)
{
xhr.setRequestHeader('X-Token','6452734413286534260')
}
}
}
});
dataSource.read();
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="info"></div>
</body>
</html>
Thanks,
Asat

Hello Asat,
In order to send the data as XML you will need to set the contentType option appropriately:

Hi Rosen,
Thanks for your reply but I am still in dark.
I used pure jQuery as below and it works.
$.ajax ({
type: "POST",
url: "https://192.168.5.55:8443/abc/rest/crmapp/api/CrmGetAccounts",
dataType: "xml",
data: '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?><GetAccountsRequest xmlns="http://www.abc.net/act/1.0"><RequestFields><Accounts><Account><AccountNumber/><AccountName/><AccountNameIndex/><RepCode/><AccountEmail/><AccountWebsite/></Account></Accounts></RequestFields><Filters><AccountNumber><Range><From>3708</From><To>3708</To></Range></AccountNumber></GetAccountsRequest>',
headers: { 'X-ABC-Token': '5440276274957472002' }
});
But when I try to emulate the same with Kendo.. it doesn't work.

My current code is as below,
var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({

transport: {

processData: false,
dataType: "xml",

headers: { 'X-Pronto-Token': '2395432833752785275' }
}
}
});
dataSource.read();
});
var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({

Hello Asat,
As you are sending data as a single string value, you will need to use the parameterMap function instead assigning it directly to the data option. Similar to the following:

Thanks Rosen. It worked.
I couldn't figured it our from the documentation. Is it not a popular practice to send plain XMLs in http requests?

Hello Asat,
It depends on the particular scenario. Generally speaking the most common use case will be to send multiple parameters instead of single string value.
