Hi VikasB,

I have created message with below given data, that also its throwing error,

 

Method : POST

URL : https://api.stage.lithium.com/community/2.0/hhhkhk/messages

Headers: Content-Type - application/json
                client-id - asdasdasdasd
                Authorization - Bearer dfdsfsdfsd

Data :
{
                    "data": {
                            "type": "message",
                            "subject": "hello world",
                            "body": "this is a message post.",
                            "board": {
                                "id": "abcdiscussions"
                            },

                           "labels":"test1, test2"
                        }
                }

 

Repsonse:

{"status":"error","message":"Unable to parse the required Content-Body from the request.","data":{"type":"error_data","code":308,"developer_message":"'labels' object does not contain a 'list_item_type' property, which is required for lists.","more_info":""},"metadata":{}}

 

 

 

Note: One more thing, which call can we use for REST API (https://api.stage.lithium.com/community/2.0/hhhkhk/messages OR http://community.lithium.com/community-name/restapi/vc)

Regards

Rajesh

nrajesh  You can use this one even with the GET call also

 

https://lithiumstage.xyz.com/restapi/vc/blogs/id/[id]/messages/post?message.subject=Test&message.body=Test&label.labels=Test1,Test2'

In your post call, I guess you are not sending the parameter in the required format as an error mentioned in your post.  The parameters should be like message.subject, messgae.body, label.labels etc. 

 

Hope it would work for you.
