Push notification error when additional json data is included

jamal

Hello,

I have successfully tested the push notification service and I can receive alerts on an android phone.

However, I am trying to send additional json data

** {"test"  :  "1234"}**

in the request as in the following:

{
   "jsonrpc":"2.0",
   "method":"Push.send",
   "params":{
      "pushProjectId":"appprojectid goes here - removed",
      "platform":"android",
      "target":"app",
      "buildtype":"release",
      "title":"Hello",
      "message":"this is test # 3",
      "json":{  "test":"1234" }
   },
   "id":1
}

but I am getting the following error:

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"error":{"code":-32603,"message":"Internal error: \"Invalid parameter: JSON\\u306e\\u5f62\\u5f0f\\u304c\\u6b63\\u3057\\u304f\\u3042\\u308a\\u307e\\u305b\\u3093\\u3002\""}}

I checked the json request using an online json validator and it is valid. When the json parameter is blank, there is no error.

What am I missing?

To add, I am sending the above Push Notification request from a C# application to the Monaca backend URL.

Note: the ** around the additional json string in the 4th line of the post are not part of the string.

@jamal Have you set the JSON-RPC Request Header? I think you may not have the right configuration for the request. Please read the documentation for more information.

@khemry, this is what I set for the header:

C# code

        var webAddr = "https://cloud.monaca.mobi/manage/json-rpc/REMOVED";

        var httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(webAddr);
        httpWebRequest.ContentType = "application/json";
        httpWebRequest.Headers.Add("X-Monaca-Backend-Management-API-Key", "REMOVED");
        httpWebRequest.Method = "POST";

As I said in the first post if I send:

{
“jsonrpc”:“2.0”,
“method”:“Push.send”,
“params”:{
“pushProjectId”:“appprojectid goes here - removed”,
“platform”:“android”,
“target”:“app”,
“buildtype”:“release”,
“title”:“Hello”,
“message”:“this is test # 3”,
“json”: { } // Empty json; OK. None empty, errors out.
},
“id”:1
}

The push notification works. It is only when I include additional parameters in the json property, like

“json”: { “test”:“1234” }

that I get the internal error.

“json”:{ “test”:“1234” }

Hi Jamal,

So, I tested the request myself and found that there was an unintentional error in the documentation. The correct parameter name for JSON object should be extra_json. Therefore, just change your json object as follows then your request should be successfully sent.

"extra_json":{  "test":"1234" }

I also updated the parameter name of this JSON object in our Documentation.

Hi Khemry,

It works fine now!

Thanks for the quick fix!
