getting ERROR_BAD_ARRAY when trying to post via api

I can pull date with a get, but when trying to post anything back using the api, I keep getting the response of:

["ERROR_BAD_ARRAY","input parameter must be an array of objects; view documentation in your browser at https//glpi.mydomain.net/apirest.php/#ERROR_BAD_ARRAY"]

I've tried this, along with the exact syntax listed in the api docs...

curl -X PUT -H 'Context-Type: application/json' -H "Session-Token: my-session-token" -H 'App-Token: my-app-token' 'http//glpi.mydomain.net/apirest.php/Computer/5380' -d '{"input": {"comment": "test"}}'

I had also tried encapsulating the data portion like this as seen in another response: {"input": [{"comment": "test"}]}

no matter what I try, I seem to get the same error.

Re: getting ERROR_BAD_ARRAY when trying to post via api

Hello,

Did you try on POSTMAN to test your command ?

In Postman if i type this : (PUT) https://server/apirest.php/Computer/69/?expand_drodpowns=false&range=0-200&order=desc&session_token=37lgkfkii67ff248kt34XXXXX
Body => Raw (JSON)

{"input":{"comment":"test"}}

it's working well

I'm not sure just what your getting at.
yes, I agree, it should work, but when posting agains GLPI, it does not.

Re: getting ERROR_BAD_ARRAY when trying to post via api

POSTMAN is a tool where you can try your command (https://www.postman.com/)

When I check your command CURL I see that :  'Context-Type: application/json' but the documentation use this : 'Content-Type: application/json'
May be this part is wrong on your command.

Sorry but in my side I do only HTTP request
