Kentico 8 Response

avdhoota n asked on March 16, 2017 10:22

Hi All,

Here i have one requirement to implement in Kentico 8. I have a rest api in my website and it is being used by some other java application and those are asynchronous calls to Kentico from Java. Now i need to save those response coming from java app somewhere in Kentico.

What is the best approach to do this? One i am thinking to crate a rest api in my Kentico website which will be exposed to Java Application just to send receive the response.

Is there any other way like configuring Kentico Rest in different way to get the response so i don't need to create classic .Net rest api ?

Please help me with this asap as it is needed urgently.

Thanks, Avdhoota

Yes, custom table items are a bit special. Please use this url instead:

/rest/customtableitem.customtable.sampletable/all

where customtable.sampletable is the code name of your custom table.

Kentico REST API allows you to store data as well (POST) or update them (PUT):

Hi Jan,

Thanks a lot for the prompt response.

Sorry, I am very new to Kentico. So can i use Custom Tables to receive these async responses?

For an ex. I will create one Custome table TransferResult with fields 'AliasPath' and 'Response'.

So what should be the format for response(xml/json).

Does this require any other configuration changes?

Hi All, Post method to add data into custom table gives an error '

Method not allowed.

Here is my request,

/rest/customtableitem.customtable.sampletable/all?aliaspath=testav&response=testav

and this -> /rest/customtableitem.customtable.sampletable?aliaspath=testav&response=testav gives error

404 - File or directory not found.

for now i am hitting this request from Chrome postman.

'Get' request gives all the data, /rest/customtableitem.customtable.sampletable/all

Please let me know what am i missing here
