Hi, wasn't sure how to POST the following using rest-client:

POST /2008-08-01/Accounts/AC309475e5fede1b49e100272a8640f438/Calls
HTTP/1.1


Caller=4158675309&Called=4155551212&Url=http://www.myapp.com/myhandler.ph

would I pass {:caller => '415....', :called => '415555'} or do
I make a string 'Caller=415...' and make it equal payload and
just make that the second attribute?

For http auth, can I use in the third (header) {:user => , :password =>}?

Thanks.

user and password you can't use the header form: you can either put them in the url (https://user:password@example.com/private/resource)

or you can use the execute method and pass them as parameter

RestClient::Request.execute(:method => :post,
:url => 'http://rmoerzemzeg.com',
:payload => {'a' => 'amihe',
'azugeaz' => 'async'},
:user => 'blah',
:password => 'blah')

Does this answer your question ?

Hi, thanks, okay, that's what I was using but wondered if there was support for http auth without the URL.

How about posting the caller info? The format looks like a string, but do I create a hash key-value pair as I described below?

thanks!

How does restclient automatically parse XML responses so i can access them as attributes?

normally the hash should work, see my example

restclient doesn't automatically parse xml responses so you have to do it yourself, where do you find this information ?

Hi, thanks, I saw the answer, would it work with:

response = RestClient.post url,{'Caller' => '65055555'} ?

Or what if it were:

resp = RestClient.post url, body

where body = Caller=xxxx&Called=xxxxx&URL=http://www.something.com

I have tried using the body approach and I get a bad request.

it should work as there is special case to manage string payload, perhaps an escaping problem in your payload ?
