PHP
1

Good day

I tried getting a json response using the below written code but instead it returned the following error message

{“Message”:“The request entity’s media type ‘multipart/form-data’ is not supported for this resource.”}

see the code below

$mydata = array(
            'number1' => $_POST["customerNUM1"],
            'number2' => $_POST["sessionNUM1"],
        );
        $headers = array(
            'Content-Type' => 'application/json'
        );
        $ch = curl_init($url);
        //        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $this->cookie_jar);
        //        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_COOKIESESSION, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, False);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, False);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_ENCODING, "");
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS,0);
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_TIMEOUT,30);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION, CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $mydata);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
        $response = curl_exec($ch);
        $err = curl_error($ch);
        if ($err) {
            echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
        } else {
            echo $response;
        }

We need to know what the service is awaiting…. Otherwise we cannot help

it is awaiting the following url
$url = “https://api2.creditregistry.com/nigeria/AutoCred/v7.Test/api/Customers/FindByBVN2”;

Edited code

$mydata = array(
            'number1' => $_POST["customerNUM1"],
            'number2' => $_POST["sessionNUM1"],
        );
        $headers = array(
            'Content-Type' => 'application/json'
        );
		
		$url = "https://api2.creditregistry.com/nigeria/AutoCred/v7.Test/api/Customers/FindByBVN2";
		
        $ch = curl_init($url);
        //        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $this->cookie_jar);
        //        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_COOKIESESSION, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, False);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, False);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_ENCODING, "");
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS,0);
        curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_TIMEOUT,30);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION, CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $mydata);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
        $response = curl_exec($ch);
        $err = curl_error($ch);
        if ($err) {
            echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
        } else {
            echo $response;
        }

I cannot find any manual for this API. Where is the documentation?

I am sorry, I cannot find any document what parameters are expected. Where is defined what customerNUM1 and sessionNUM1 should contain?

What I guess is, that the parameters should be in JSON format and I am pretty sure that an array is not the correct format. But as long as I don’t find a working sample i do not know
