Post operation of creating user with Trips failing

[RoronoaSrinu]

We are from Adobe System part of the AEM Forms Product team.
We were trying to make use of your APIs for an internal PoC.

We are using HTTP requests :
https://www.odata.org/getting-started/understand-odata-in-6-steps/

In the process we encountered some trouble.
When we try to submit user details along with trip data, the POST call fails. It doesn’t accept the key ‘Trips’ in the Request body of the object.

However, when we do a GET to retrieve existing data, we are able to see the key ‘Trips’, with value populated under it.

Hello! I would need to get a little more information about what specific error message you're seeing, and also what version of Restier you are using. Then I can dig in and see what is up.

Thanks!

Hello @RoronoaSrinu. Apologies for not getting back to you on this. Were you able to get this working? The error came from posting the wrong type of object to the endpoint. That URL was "/People, so you would have needed to post a Person in order for it to go through... however it's not likely that the Trips would have been added without a BATCH request or DELTA payload.

Thanks!
