I have an IOS application that I would like to send an email via Mandrill. I have tried to implement this, but its not working and Ive confused myself.
When pressing the button to send an email from the IOS application I log this error message:
{"status":"error","code":-1,"name":"ValidationError","message":"You must specify a key value"}
My code is:
NSString *post = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"{\"key\": \"abcdefg123456\", \"raw_message\": \"From: me#mydomain.com\nTo: me#myotherdomain.com\nSubject: Some Subject\n\nSome content.}"];
NSData *postData = [post dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES];
NSString *postLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d", [postData length]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init];
[request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"https://mandrillapp.com/api/1.0/messages/send-raw.json"]];
[request setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
[request setValue:postLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
[request setValue:#"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[request setHTTPBody:postData];
NSLog(#"Post: %#", post);
NSURLResponse *response;
NSData *POSTReply = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&response error:nil];
NSString *theReply = [[NSString alloc] initWithBytes:[POSTReply bytes] length:[POSTReply length] encoding: NSASCIIStringEncoding];
NSLog(#"Reply: %#", theReply);
Please let me know where I am going wrong.
It looks you forgot the \" after "content.".
Try to write your "post" variable as follow:
NSString *post = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"{\"key\": \"abcdefg123456\", \"raw_message\": \"From: me#mydomain.com\nTo: me#myotherdomain.com\nSubject: Some Subject\n\nSome content.\"}"];
I hope it helps.

I'm new to iOS and i'm using the following code to make API Calls.
-(NSData *)sendDataToServer:(NSString*)url :(NSString*)params
{
NSString *postDataString = [params stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(#"postDataString :%#",postDataString);
NSData *postData = [postDataString dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES];
NSString *postLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d",[postData length]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init];
NSString *urlReq = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#", url];
[request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlReq]];
[request setTimeoutInterval:180];
[request setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
[request setValue:postLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
[request setValue:#"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[request setHTTPBody:[params dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
responseData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:nil error:nil];
NSString *responseString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:responseData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(#"response in Server: %#",responseString);
return responseData;
}
I'm sending the following string as params to the above method. If I send the following data without special characters, I'm getting the success response.
If i Add any special charters as like (&) with json I'm always getting the invalid response, that is the server always returns null.
So Can anyone please provide any suggestion to get the right response when using json string with Special characters like '&' etc.,

You didn't post the percent encoded string, but the original string.
I have create an application that send two POST parameters to aspx server and it's save data in database.
It's an Iphone Application.
Here's the code:
NSString *post = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"name=%#&number=%#",
name,number];
NSString *capturedpost = [post
stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSData *postData = [capturedpost dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
//NSString *postLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d", [postData
length]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init];
[request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"http:/www.myurl.aspx"]];
[request setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
//[request setValue:postLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
//[request setValue:#"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[request setHTTPBody:postData];
NSURLResponse *requestResponse;
NSData *requestHandler = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request
returningResponse:&requestResponse error:nil];
NSString *requestReply = [[NSString alloc] initWithBytes:[requestHandler
bytes] length:[requestHandler length] encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
NSLog(#"requestReply: %#", requestReply);
NSData *returnData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request
returningResponse:nil error:nil];
But on server, the string "number" that contain the telephone number like "+393333..." save in db the number without the "+".
How can I do?
The server side works fine, because the same App on Android that do same request work perfect!
OK, thanks to "holex" I successfully encode the URL in this way:
NSString * encodedString = (NSString *)CFBridgingRelease(CFURLCreateStringByAddingPercentEscapes(
NULL,
(CFStringRef)post,
NULL,
(CFStringRef)#"+",
kCFStringEncodingUTF8 ));
And the "+" saved correctly in db!
I am writing an OSX program than manages a membership database. One of the features is to be able to send messages to members who have installed the companion app.
I've recently learned that push notifications using the parse SDK can only be done on IOS devices, and to do so from a Mac, I would have to use the restful api. No Prob. But I am having a problem,.
I have method :
-(void)sendPushNotification:(NSString*)strTheDeviceToken TheMessage:(NSString*) strTheMessage{
//POST
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init];
[request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"https://api.parse.com/1/push"]];
[request setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
NSString *post = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"{\"where\":{"];
post = [post stringByAppendingString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"\"deviceToken\":\""]];
post = [post stringByAppendingString:strTheDeviceToken];
post = [post stringByAppendingString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"\"},\"data\":{"]];
post = [post stringByAppendingString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"\"alert\": \""]];
post = [post stringByAppendingString:strTheMessage];
post = [post stringByAppendingString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"\"}}"]];
NSLog(#"The JSON post = '%#'",post);
NSData *postData = [post dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES];
NSString *postLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%lu", (unsigned long)[postData length]];
[request setValue:#"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
//[request setValue:postLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
[request setValue:#"MyAPIdHere" forHTTPHeaderField:#"X-Parse-Application-Id"];
[request setValue:#"MyRestKeyHere" forHTTPHeaderField:#"X-Parse-REST-API-Key"];
NSURLResponse *requestResponse;
NSData *requestHandler = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&requestResponse error:nil];
NSString *requestReply = [[NSString alloc] initWithBytes:[requestHandler bytes] length:[requestHandler length] encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
NSLog(#"requestReply: %#", requestReply);
NSLog(#"DONE!");
}
The JSON that is sent looks correctly formed :
{
"where": {
"deviceToken": "-tokenhere-"
},
"data": {
"alert": "This is a test"
}
}
But the result back is :
{"code":107,"error":"invalid json: "}
Can someone see where I've gone wrong in my code?
Never fails - as soon as you post - you find your own mistake.
Forgot the critical line :
[request setHTTPBody:postData];
DOH!
I am sending data to the php file on the server using post using following code
NSString *post =[[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"UserName=%#&UserPassword=%#",appDelegate.userName,appDelegate.userPassword];
NSLog(#"post is %#",post);
NSURL *url=[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://ec2-50-94-162-129.compute-1.amazonaws.com/usercredential.php?"];
NSLog(#"URL is %#",url);
NSData *postData = [post dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES];
NSString *postLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d", [postData length]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init] ;
[request setURL:url];
[request setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
[request setValue:postLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
[request setValue:#"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[request setHTTPBody:postData];
NSError *error;
NSURLResponse *response;
NSData *urlData=[NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&response error:&error];
NSString *data=[[NSString alloc]initWithData:urlData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(#"%#",data);
data = [data stringByTrimmingCharactersInSet:[NSCharacterSet whitespaceAndNewlineCharacterSet]];
NSLog(#"%#",data);
This shows login Failed if I access directly file from browser and provide userNAme in address then it works fine it does not work from iPhone app
I want to send a simple message(NSString) to my php script. I am trying to do a POST request. I am unable to do this and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Can someone tell me my mistake?
Thank you!
PHP Code
<?php
if($_POST['error'])
{
$date= time();
$error=$_POST['error'];
$message=$date." ".$error;
echo $message;
//Rest of code just writes to a log file
?>
---------------------
NSString *post =[[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"error=%#",serverError];
NSData *postData = [post dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES];
NSString *postLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d", [postData length]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init] autorelease];
[request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://mysite.com/error.php"]];
[request setHTTPMethod:#"POST"];
[request setValue:postLength forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Length"];
[request setValue:#"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[request setHTTPBody:postData];
NSURLResponse *response;
NSError *err;
NSData *responseData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&response error:&err];
NSLog(#"responseData is %#", responseData);
Try this
NSString *post = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"error=%#", serverError];
rather than
NSString *post = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"error=%#", serverError];
