REST Post Request No Errors But Record Not Created

Epicor ERP 10
1

I am trying to create a new record in the CRMCall table via REST. It works in both Epicor REST Help and in Postman. I trying to do this in VBA (Outlook). The specifics of the object that contains my POST request are:

    With objRequest
    .Open "POST", strURL, blnAsync
    .setRequestHeader "Authorization", "Basic (encrypted username/pw)"
    .setRequestHeader "Content-type", "application/json"
    .setRequestHeader "Accept", "application/json"

    .Send (JsonBody)

JsonBody contains the necessary fields to create the record. Again, it works in REST Help and in Postman, but a new record does not result if doing via VBA. I’ve tried both:

  • with/without the ‘Accept’ header
  • blnAsync set both True/False

The response reports that ‘The requested resource does not support http method POST.’

Does anyone have any ideas as to what I might be overlooking?

Interesting… is it something with VBA syntax at this point?

It may have been a VBA syntax issue. See my next comment.

It’s possible there was a typo I missed. This morning I retyped the JSON list of fields to POST. I thought it was exactly the same as what failed yesterday, but today the POST created the record in table CRMCall. So POST from VBA is now working for me.

Right on Tim, gotta love syntax.
