REST: anyone solve issue of no ? before parms

Jaymer

https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists/af1ed4d272/members

Field in RED needs to be a parameter.
But if you enter the GREEN as Base URL, then the parameters get added with a ?

htps:/us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists/?af1ed4d272/members
which is INVALID

HELP

Jaymer

This would work...
except it doesn't work:

BASE URL: https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists/<<LoggedInRegularUser.tmpListID>>/members

You can use field tags in the OAuth dialog in several places.
WHY can't the BASE URL field allow it?
Would solve the entire issue and open up more options.

BASE URL: https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists/<<LoggedInRegularUser.tmpListID>>/members

I can confirm that Base URL does not accept Aware IM << >> enclosed parameter.

Base URL does not and will not accept expressions in tags.

The real problem is that it is not possible at the moment to specify parameters that are delimited by "/" symbol as Aware IM always adds "?". We will fix this in the next build. You will need to specify parameters that start with "/" symbol - in this case Aware IM will not insert "?"

Jaymer

Perfect!

Thanks,

Thanks!

Also, MailChimp seems to accept the URL if ? is within the forward slashes /?/:
BASE URL: https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/?[b]/lists[/b]

Green = Parameter String starting with /

Hi Rennur
INCORRECT

It ignores the /?/ in terms of throwing an error, but THEN it ignores anything coming after the ?
(i removed the -H authorization info)

curl -H https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists/af1ed4d272
would return details for a specific list.

curl -H https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists/[b]?[/b]/af1ed4d272
will return all lists, because it sees it as this:
curl -H https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists

And if you use this as the BASE URL:
curl -H https://us18.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/
then it gives you generic info about your account, ignoring anything in parameters that would come later
