How is the proper way to use the CompressedClientLog Finesse API?

[matthew.bavosa]

Hi All, How can I best format my POST request for CompressedClientLog? 

CompressedClientLog—Post Compressed Log to Finesse - Finesse - Document - Cisco DevNet

CompressedClientLog—Post Compressed Log to Finesse

var data = new FormData();
var logObj = '<ClientLog><logData>This is some logged data for the log file</logData></ClientLog>';
data.append("logData", logObj);

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.addEventListener("readystatechange", function() {
  if(this.readyState === 4) {
    console.log("Gadget is now engaged" + this.responseText);
  }
});
xhr.open("POST", "https://finesse1.xyz.com/finesse/api/User/finadmin/CompressedClientLog");
xhr.send(data);

<ApiErrors>
  <ApiError>
    <ErrorType>Parameter Missing</ErrorType>
    <ErrorData>logData</ErrorData>
    <ErrorMessage>Missing logData in the ClientLog object</ErrorMessage>
  </ApiError>
</ApiErrors>

Where am I going wrong?

Hi,

Please try this.

var data = new FormData();
var logObj = '<ClientLog><logData>This is some logged data for the log file</logData></ClientLog>';
data.append("logData", logObj);
var logZip = new JSZip();
logZip.file("abc.txt", window.finesse.modules.LocalStorageViewer.getContents(null, null));
                logZip.generateAsync({
                type: 'blob',
                compression: 'DEFLATE',
                compressionOptions: {
                    level: 9
                }
                }).then(function(file) {
                     var postdata = new FormData();
                    postdata.append("file", file);

                    var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
                    xhr.addEventListener("readystatechange", function() {
                      if(this.readyState === 4) {
                        console.log("sent" + this.responseText);
                      }
                    });
                    xhr.open("POST", "https://finessefqdn:8445/finesse/api/User/someuser/CompressedClientLog");
                    xhr.send(postdata);
                })

Thanks

Hi @dhiarumu  thank you for the suggestion. I do not have JSZip in my project, is there a way to do this without JSZip?

[dhiarumu]

Hi @matthew.bavosa, 

There should be some alternatives for JSZip, we haven't tried others as JSZip solves the purpose.

Thanks
