...er.X-AG-Access-Token

Good day

I am trying to use permID file match by hitting https://api.thomsonreuters.com/permid/match/file

I can use the entity search API with no errors, but with the file match I am getting the following error
{
"fault": {
"faultstring": "Failed to resolve API Key variable request.header.X-AG-Access-Token",
"detail": {
"errorcode": "steps.oauth.v2.FailedToResolveAPIKey"
}
}
}

I am currently using postman to test and am unsure of what I am doing wrong.

When using this access token in the Dev Tools try it out section, I do not receive an error.

Any help is appreciated.

    I have modified the code.

    1. The path should start with "/"

    2. Add the "x-ag-access-token" in the headers

    3. Add content in the body

    The modified code is:

    var http = require("https"); 

    var options = { "method": "POST", "hostname": "api.thomsonreuters.com", "path": "/permid/match/file", "headers": { "content-type": "multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW", "x-openmatch-numberOfMatchesPerRecord": "1", "x-openmatch-dataType": "Organization", "cache-control": "no-cache", "Postman-Token": "101e3dbe-96bf-4b1c-9fce-8dad5f4ff975", "x-ag-access-token" : "token"}}; 

    var req = http.request(options, function (res) { var chunks = []; res.on("data", function (chunk) { chunks.push(chunk); }); 

    res.on("end", function () { var body = Buffer.concat(chunks); console.log(body.toString()); }); }); 

    req.write("------WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"file\"; filename=\"test.csv\"\r\nContent-Type: application/vnd.ms.-excel\r\n\r\nLocalID,Standard Identifier,Name,Country,Street,City,PostalCode,State,Website\r\n1,,Apple,US,\"Apple Campus, 1 Infinite Loop\",Cupertino,95014,California,\r\n------WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW--");

    req.end();

    According to chapter 2.3 of PermID API User Guide, if you want to pass access token as a parameter in the URL rather than as an HTTP header, the parameter name is "access-token" and not "x-ag-access-token".

    After updating my node code i get the following back in terminal after trying to run node.
    $ node index.js
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Error</title>
    <style>
    body {
    width: 35em;
    margin: 0 auto;
    font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
    }
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>An error occurred.</h1>
    <p>Sorry, the page you are looking for is currently unavailable.<br/>
    Please try again later.</p>
    </body>
    </html>

    Below is the code in index.js

    const express = require('express')
    const app = express()


    const request = require('request');
    const cors = require('cors');
    // const http = require('http');
    // const https = require('https');
    const util = require('util')


    // Sets an initial port. We"ll use this later in our listener
    const PORT = process.env.PORT || 8080;


    app.use(cors());

    var corsOptions = {
      origin: '*',
      optionsSuccessStatus: 200
    };

    // Service end-point (search) 

    // app.get('/upload', function (req, res) {

    //   var options = {
    //     method: 'GET',
    //     url: 'https://api.thomsonreuters.com/permid/match/file?Content-Type=multipart/form-data',

    //     },
    //     formData: {
    //       file: undefined
    //     }
    //   };

    //   request(options, function (error, response, body) {
    //     if (error) throw new Error(error);
    //     console.log(response)
    //     console.log(body);
    //   });

    // });

    // function dataReturned(e) {
    //   console.log("Success!");
    //   finalRes.end(e);
    // }

    // const server = http.createServer(app)
    // server.listen(PORT, () => {
    //   console.log(`app started! at port ${PORT}`);
    // });
    var http = require("https");

    var options = {
      "method": "POST",
      "hostname": "api.thomsonreuters.com",
      "path": "permid/match/file",
      "headers": {

      }
    };

    var req = http.request(options, function (res) {
      var chunks = [];

      res.on("data", function (chunk) {
        chunks.push(chunk);
      });

      res.on("end", function () {
        var body = Buffer.concat(chunks);
        console.log(body.toString());
      });
    });

    req.write("------WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"file\"\r\n\r\n\r\n------WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW--");
    req.end();

    To troubleshoot this I suggest you capture the HTTP request and response going on the wire. Use an HTTP analyzer or a network sniffer.
