API Call with ABAP - POST Method and JSON Request [english]

In today's video I will show you how to call an external API from SAP.
I use a POST CALL and pass a JSON string to this API. To test this, I looked on the website RapidApi.com for a free service that I can pass a JSON string via POST call.
I already used 2x an API of this website.
1x for a simple GET request and
1x for a file upload
I link these videos on the top right.
Today I use an API for translations.

Sir, how to check if my API is connect or not in sap abap debug ? i try in postman and its ok status 200., but in sap abap when in o_client->receive( ) the program stopped and show that http_communication_failure @@CustAndCode

[@CustAndCode]

Maybe you have to install a certificate I have made a video about that 🤗

[@alexx09724]

Thank you for sharing! Can you tell me how I can implement JSON web tokens (JWT) in this code or recommend a site where I can find more information about this?

[@CustAndCode]

Unfortunately not I'm not experienced with JWT. 😐

[@peverco]

Hey man, is there are way that we could show only the text translated in the result? (Instead of the entire json response)

[@CustAndCode]

There is always a way... 😉 You can work with substrings or you can translate the Json to an ABAP structure like an internal table... have a look at this video: ua-cam.com/video/v_McRGowbbo/v-deo.html
😀

[@bvelmurugan]

Hi expert, I added the certificate but still it showing HTTP_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE error...

[@CustAndCode]

Have you picked the right folder (Standard)? and is the certificate in the certificate list? 🤔

[@satishkumar-uy4lv]

can we access Graph QL also?

[@CustAndCode]

I haven't used Graph QL yet. It should be possible but not like this way. There are some conversions necessary. 🤔

[@juneduddin7614]

I have uploaded the certificate in STRUST but still the status code is 0 .

[@CustAndCode]

Have you added the cert to the certificate list? 🤔

[@awesomeshree]

This is amazing. Thanks a lot.

[@CustAndCode]

Thank you very much I am glad! 😀🤗

[@zivgur]

[@CustAndCode]

Unfortunateley I do not maintain a blog. 🤗 But in my videos we have not that much code, is typed quickly 🤗
