If you remove .json() the response will simply be treated as a string. You should then be able to do ${response_user} to output this string.

Hm, this code is written as an endpoint. A custom component was written for us to process the data generated by the endpoint.

How can I make the same request in the component?

 

I tried adding this to the component:

 

<#assign base = "https://domain.zendesk.com/api/v2/"/>
<#assign url_getUser = base + "users?" + "query=email@domain.com" />
<#assign response_user_no_json = http.client.request(url_getUser).header("Authorization", "Bearer "+ token).get() />
${response_user_no_json}

and receive

 

FreeMarker template error

get(client) failed on instance of lithium.coreapi.webui.template.models.HttpTemplateModel. See cause exception.

The failing instruction (FTL stack trace):
----------
==> #assign response_user_no_json = http...  [in template "preview" at line 28, column 29]
----------

 

 

If I try removing the client:

 

<#assign response_user_no_json = http.request(url_getUser).header("Authorization", "Bearer "+ token).get() />

I get :

 

FreeMarker template error

For "...(...)" callee: Expected a method, but this evaluated to an extended_hash+string (lithium.coreapi.webui.template.models.RequestTemplateModel wrapped into f.e.b.StringModel):
==> http.request  [in template "preview" at line 28, column 62]

The failing instruction (FTL stack trace):
----------
==> #assign response_user_no_json = http...  [in template "preview" at line 28, column 29]

Any help you can provide here will be very beneficial!
