API that catches HTTP Post encoded in CXML

I am trying to build an API endpoint that can catch an HTTP Post that is encoded in XML. The error I am getting is:Document input views only accept JSON-encoded data. I understand that there are sn...

    According to my esteemed colleague @akidave, we do allow POST data directly to XML Parser snap through a triggered pipeline which in your case would be the API end point. If your first snap in the pipeline is the XML Parser, you should be able to process it and your pipeline is a triggered pipeline, you should be able to send the XML encoded POST data to this triggered pipeline.

Iteration condition: IF @ITERATION=1 THEN ($TYP : $A : $B : ‘A’ : $C : SPACE(6) : $$CD : SPACE(17) )ELSE IF @ITERATION=2 THEN ($TYP : $A : $B : ‘B’ : $NO : $G : SPACE(31) )ELSE IF @ITERATION=3 THEN ($TYP : $A : $B : ‘$C’ : $NO : SPACE(16) : $F : $DT : $GH : SPACE(23) )ELSE ($TYP : $A : $B : ‘D’ : $NO : SPACE(61) : $D )

 

According to this iteration condition, we have to generate the values till to the last iteration i.e., iteration4 ($TYP: $A: $B : ‘D’ : $NO : SPACE(61) : $D ).

 

In mapper I’m getting the $A,$B,$C,$D FIELDS along with those columns need to add spaces ….

In a mapper I have spitted the expression into 4 parts like

ITERATION=1  $TYP : $A : $B : ‘A’ : $C : SPACE(6) : $CD : SPACE(17))   ---$LVRECORD1

ITERATION=2 ($TYP : $A : $B : ‘B’ : $NO : $G : SPACE(31) )   ---$LVRECORD2

ITERATION=3  ($TYP : $A : $B : ‘$C’ : $NO : SPACE(16) : $F : $DT : $GH : SPACE(23) )--- $LVRECORD3

ITERATION=4  ($TYP: $A: $B : ‘D’ : $NO : SPACE(61) : $D ). ) ---$LVRECORD4

In the next mapper

 

Next mapper

 

 

Same for all the 4 source columns I have taken the target as $LVRECORD

Output:

ABCD                 CD                         A                                                                                   iteration1

ABCD                 NO         G                          A                                                                     iteration2

ABCD                 CD           F            DTGH                                               A                          iteration3

TYP                     ADNO                 CD                          A                                                       iteration4
