Android Question [SOLVED] Send LINE Notifity With B4A

[Jones Hone]

There is an error message in my program, how can I solve it.

'Reference: HTTP & HttpUtils2 Library
Dim http As HttpJob
Dim url As String
url = "https://notify-api.line.me/api/notify"
http.Initialize("",Me)
http.GetRequest.SetHeader("Authorization", "Bearer ZOWe17zgDOzPCwcgBvugMg4ADFeLKenIj7zmJP9MTYs")
http.GetRequest.SetContentType("application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
http.PostString(url,"message=Hollo!")

The following error message occurred: The error position is in the sixth column.

You are using the old and deprecated httputils routines?
Switch to okhttputils2

HttpUtils2 was replaced with OkHttpUtils2 (5 Years ago): https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/okhttp-replaces-the-http-library.54723/

 

[eps]

The Authorization part of the Header you are setting looks odd to me... Is this as per the documentation for that endpoint?

@DonManfred:
I has switch to okhttputils2. However, there are still errors.

@eps:
Yes, The Authorization part is as per the documentation for that endpoint.

This code was successfully executed in VB6, I want to port it to B4A.

 

[Jones Hone]

Maybe ask another way.
How to transfer the following vb6 code to b4a. Thank you.

Dim HttpClient As Object,url As String
Set HttpClient = CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
mKEY = "ZOWe17zgDOzPCwcgBvugMg4ADFeLKenIj7zmJP9MTYs"
msg = "message=" & vbCrLf & "This is test message."
url = "https://notify-api.line.me/api/notify"
HttpClient.Open "POST", url, False
HttpClient.SetRequestHeader "Authorization", "Bearer " & mKEY
HttpClient.SetRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
HttpClient.Send msg

You need to call Job.PostString before making the changes to the request object.

Set HTTP Request Header with OkHttpUtils2

Description: The following code allows you to set the request headers before the request is sent. This is useful for example with sites that block requests without a User-Agent header. This code depends on HttpUtils2 and Http libraries: Dim j As HttpJob j.Initialize("job name", Me)...

[Jones Hone]

Oh, that's it! Just move ".PostString" to the front and it's ok.
Erel, Thank you very much.

Dim http As HttpJob
Dim url As String
url = "https://notify-api.line.me/api/notify"
http.Initialize("",Me)
http.PostString(url,"message=Hollo!")
http.GetRequest.SetHeader("Authorization", "Bearer ZOWe17zgDOzPCwcgBvugMg4ADFeLKenIj7zmJP9MTYs")
http.GetRequest.SetContentType("application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
