Bad Request error on Cases webservice call

pmahamunee

Hello Team,
I am able to call groups webservice successfully. I am using Salesforce Apex language for calling the webservices. But, I am getting HTTP Status code 400 (Bad Request) error while calling Cases webservice.
Below is the data I am passing to webservice
DataForSignature:
(request-target): post /v1/cases
host: rms-world-check-one-api-pilot.thomsonreuters.com

content-length:168
{"secondaryFields":[],"providerTypes":["WATCHLIST"],"name":"george w bush","groupId":"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX","entityType":"INDIVIDUAL","customFields":[]}

Can you please help me understand the reason for Bad request statuscode 400 issue?

Thank you for sharing the request headers.

In the POST request, you will have to send the below 4 in the headers -

i. Authorisation

ii. Date

iii. Content-Type

iv. Content-Length

From the above request header, I see that you are not sending the 'Authorisation' in the request header of the API call which should result in Error 4XX.

The body, date, content length and content type values are correct and valid.

Can you please add the Authorisation to the headers of the API call and then try? If it still fails, request you to share the request headers, request body and the response headers of the API call to investigate on the issue.

Can you please send us the request headers, request payload and the response headers of the API call to further investigate the issue?
