What is the format of tokens and leads(input json format) used in request campaign rest api? I am getting error code 609 with message Invalid value specified for attribute 'null'.

Please provide some example for the integration purpose.

Hi Jatin,

Paste your code, it will be easier to help you.

Hi Greg,

It is the same sample java code as given in request campaign rest api page.Here is the snippet for the input format.

public static void main(String[] args){

  RequestCampaign requestCampaign = new RequestCampaign();

  requestCampaign.id = 1079;

  requestCampaign.leadIds = new int[]{40};

  JsonObject myToken = new JsonObject()

  .add("name", "{{my.number}}")

  .add("value", "123456");

  requestCampaign.tokens = new JsonObject[]{myToken};

  System.out.println(requestCampaign.buildRequest());

  String result = requestCampaign.postData();

  System.out.println(result);

  }

The input json is printed in this format - {"input":{"leads":[40],"tokens":[{"name":"{{my.number}}","value":"123456"}]}}

Please reply. your help will be highly appreciated.

The "leads" prop is an array of object { id:<int> id }. You are passing an array of integers.

Hi Sanford,

Thanks for your reply. Actually i am using same code as mentioned in  Request Campaign » Marketo Developers  and in this it is mentioned that we have to pass only id. So , can you guide me how to use this in correct way with some example as i am new to this.

Is this the correct way to use it.

requestCampaign.leadIds = new JsonObject().add("id",41);

Not really.  You left out this critical part:

  JsonArray leads = new JsonArray();

  int i;

  for (i = 0; i < leadIds.length; i++) {

   leads.add(leadIds[i]);

  }

Please look at the whole code sample.  It's not perfectly intuitive but you're missing parts.

it is mentioned that we have to pass only id.

No, it's not.

Hi Sanford,

can you please share a working snippet and how to use multiple id's with request campaign api.

[SanfordWhiteman]

Each lead identifier is a small JSON object, not just an int:

"leads" : [

{

      "id" : 12234

},

{

      "id" : 12235

}

]

So you need to wrap each lead ID in an instance of JSONObject.

I am following you but didn't getting the necessary changes that you are suggesting. Currently to get the output, i am using this.

public JsonObject[] leadIds;

JsonObject myLeads = new JsonObject().add("id", "40");

  JsonObject myLeads1 = new JsonObject().add("id", "41");

  requestCampaign.leadIds = new JsonObject[]{myLeads,myLeads1};

It is giving me correct output, but can you give something more optimized in accordance with the code.
