Unexpected error with JSON generator

Hello! I'm new to this board and SnapLogic in general, so this should be an easy one to resolve... 🙂 I'm creating a very simple pipeline where I use a HTTP client to read a list of ongoing, "live"...

jfpelletier - Welcome to the Community.  To fix your JSON Generator, I believe you simply need to change how you're referencing the value.  Try this:

{
    "name" : $splitValue,
    "customerId" : 771373363,
    "templateId" : 8672995468
}

 Or you could try using the Mapper snap, which simplifies the construct of these JSON objects since it directly maps the JSON paths in source to target expressions.  The same construct as above is done in a Mapper as follows:

I hope this helps!

Hello koryknick,

Thanks a lot for your reply, both options work to give me the correct JSON that I need. 🙂

I prefer the one with the mapper, it seems simpler to me.

The results in the following snap are not good however, I'm getting a 415 error message from the server to which I'm sending this payload.

If I manually enter value for the payload, it works well, the other system returns a 202 (success).

However, if I use the results from the previous snap (the JSON structure that I just generated) as multi-part, I'm getting the 415 error message:

The small characters: Failure: class java.util.LinkedHashMap cannot be cast to class java.lang.String (java.util.LinkedHashMap and java.lang.String are in module java.base of loader 'bootstrap'), Reason: Snap failed unexpectedly and did not provide any reason.

I must be doing something very wrong... Can you see why it's not working?

Thanks!
