Pretty sure only simple parameter types like Character and Integer etc. are supported for REST interfaces. Sent from Nine Von: Walter Mangra Gesendet: Montag, 14.

Update from Progress Community Walter Mangra As suggested I tried adding ReqHeader to the Service_Interface code, but when I tried to map the HTTP GET once more I am getting the following error: Rest file include Invocation file generation failed. The procedure includes unsupported data types "openedge.net.http.httpheader". Remove the unsupported parameter data types from the following procedures(s): "Read1" to successfully generate REST invocation file. Any ideas on how to recover the userid/password from the request header since I am sending it to the OEPAS instance ? /* Code from Service_Interface block-level on error undo, throw. using Progress.Lang.*. /* *************************** Definitions ************************** */ define variable CustInfoInstanceRead as AppServer.CustomerDispatcher no-undo. define input parameter CustId as integer no-undo. define input parameter ReqHeader as OpenEdge.Net.HTTP.HttpHeader no-undo. define temp-table custrecord like Customer. define output parameter TABLE for custrecord. define output parameter reason as character no-undo.
