Postando um novo tópico via API

Dev
1

Olá,

Não consigo fazer o envio funcionar e, infelizmente, não encontrei muito, nem na documentação da API, nem no fórum.

Que tipo de codificação/limpeza (se houver) devo fazer para as strings do título e do corpo bruto da postagem? Estou recebendo estranhamente um erro 404 ao postar em /posts.json com os campos {api_username, api_key, title, raw, created_at, archetype, skip_validations} usando o cabeçalho form-data (estou tentando com Python, mas o Postman apresenta o mesmo problema). Alguma orientação sobre o que estou fazendo de errado?

Standard www-form encoding is all. Make sure you’re sending either (api_username, api_key) or (Cookie, X-CSRF-Token).

But am I supposed to receive 404 in any case? I do include api_username and api _key in the form…

Update: if I send the same request under admin user / master api_key it goes through, but I get 404 if I submit under another user but still with master api_key, bug or my mistake?

Can you provide more info and maybe a code snippet of your posting attempt?

Hello - I don’t want to create a new topic because I seem to be having the exact same issue; I’m using the latest discourse_api gem, and I have generated a master API key; I’m creating posts on behalf of existing users (fetching content they put elsewhere).

A normal call

c.create_topic category: category, title: new_title,
                   raw: new_content, api_username: username

Works on some users, and not on others; I get a {"status"=>404, "error"=>"Not Found"} response.

Only differences I can tell are:

  • The user for whom I can create is in staff (others aren’t)
  • The user for whom I can create has a user name identical to the name, and is lowercase (others don’t and aren’t)

Furthermore, if I go to the web interface, create the post, and transfer ownership, it works. So far I’m letting the automaton do its job with the ones that can be created, and give me the text to manually create the ones that can’t. But at over 1000 posts that won’t be created automatically, I despair a little :sweat_smile:

EDIT: verified name situation is not the issue… It may be related to the staff thing.

EDITEDIT: I worked around this by creating in a user’s name, then changing ownership to another user. The mere fact that this is possible on the same API key makes me lean towards the 404 behavior being a bug.

Você conseguiu resolver isso?

Como enviar uma imagem na API de criação de postagem. Porque na documentação, na solicitação da API, não há chave mencionada para imagem.
https://docs.discourse.org/#tag/Posts/operation/createTopicPostPM

{
  "title": "string",
  "raw": "string",
  "topic_id": 0,

Você deve usar o endpoint uploads: https://docs.discourse.org/#tag/Uploads
Em seguida, use o valor short_url retornado para inseri-lo em sua postagem.
