I'm trying to recreate an HTTP POST in MATLAB analysis which is workign in Postman, so that I can use the data from the Huawei SolarFusion Northbound API in my project.
The login endpoint I'm using requires consumers to inspect the headers in the response. It returns 17 headers, one of which is an xsrf-token with a correspoding value I need to extract.
I tried using MATLAB webwrite function, the call is successful when I set weboptions as:
options = weboptions('MediaType','application/json','RequestMethod','post','CertificateFilename', '');
S = webwrite(url, data, options);
display (S,'look at this');
, but I couldn't find headers in the return object, S, the display output is:
struct with fields:
data: []
success: 1
failCode: 0
params: [1×1 struct]
message: []
So I am attempting to use native HTTP send(request,uri,httpOptions) but am getting:
ResponseMessage with properties:
StatusLine: 'HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error'
StatusCode: InternalServerError
Header: [1×17 matlab.net.http.HeaderField]
Body: [1×1 matlab.net.http.MessageBody]
Completed: 0
Great news that the headers are there, but I cannot make the call succeed.
I am using HTTPOptions and this is tricky to figure out the equivalent settings to webwrite options. I believe HTTPOptions of ('Authenticate',false) is equivalent to weboptions of ('CertificateFilename', '') and this is a possible cause of the error.
httpOptions = matlab.net.http.HTTPOptions('Authenticate',false);
[response,completedrequest,history] = send(request,uri,httpOptions);
display(response, ' Response ');
