Updating landing page content: system error

Anonymous · ‎02-06-2018

Hello,

I'm trying to update landing page content using the same body as the one provided on the website here:

http://developers.marketo.com/rest-api/assets/landing-page-templates/#create_and_update

This is the query I'm sending:

I've tried both with and without the header:

Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------9051914041544843365972754266

in the header section

But I'm getting system error either way.

The landing page template with Id 5 is in draft mode and has just been created.

Any feedback will be appreciated,

Thanks.

The issue was that the example request body was incorrect. You need to specify name="content" (instead of name="text"). Also need to specify filename="name_of_file". Something like this:

content-type: multipart/form-data; boundary=--------------------------435851813185237176536801

----------------------------435851813185237176536801

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="content"; filename="content.txt"

Content-Type: text/plain

<html>

<head>

</head>

<body>

<div>Placeholder Content</div>

</body>

</html>

----------------------------435851813185237176536801--

And here is Postman screenshot using "form-data" (instead of "raw"):

Hello,

Thanks for the response. Is there a way to send the body for the query without using a file (just sending the text directly), since it would be more difficult for a driver to support getting files through a stored procedure?

In Postman, the form-data option is the same as the raw option with the appropriate headers and message-body.

The sample should really separate the HTTP header from the message body, IMO... it makes it seem like you should just put the header in the body.

Hello,

does anyone have any insights on why this results in a system error? I tried the constant prefix -- and adding line breaks after the header, but unfortunately still got system error.

Thanks.

Please post your exact request payload, syntax-highlighted as Plain.

Header:

Url:

The boundary you declare in the header is missing a trailing "6".

Oops, I missed the last 6 when I was copying it over to this webpage. The trailing 6 was present on my postman request.

The outer Content-Type certainly needs to be in the HTTP header (and only there) not in the body of the request (otherwise, there's nothing describing the body).

What's the output when you GET the current content?
