How to POST discussion using curl apiv2

dhanavel

Hi,

I installed OpenSource Vanilla 3.2 and tried GET method to retrieve discussion using api v2. It works perfectly.

curl http://<localhost>/index.php?p=/api/v2/discussions

whereas POST method is failing.

curl -X POST -d @discussion.json -H  "accept: application/json" -H  "Content-Type: application/json" -H "x-transient-key: va.97oEsAkj35XlbjCcs6svM7H-lxTlNc6S.lCyEcg.uSVzdRr" http://<localhost>/index.php?p=/api/v2/discussions

{

  "message": "Invalid CSRF token. Please try again.",

  "status": 403,

  "msg": "Invalid CSRF token. Please try again.",

  "code": 403,

  "except": [],

  "type": "!csrf",

  "description": null

}

looking for example how to POST discussion via command like { curl , python requests} to vanilla.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,

Dhanavel

You need to handle cookies correct

Better than using that would be to use the API but you need to handle individual token creation by yourself.

Browse through my GitHub repos, I think I have a test implementation somewhere...
