APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When calling an PUT or POST Operation, the call fails with empty
    body or empty JSON body "{}" is provided
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • When using HTTP PUT and HTTP POST Assembly steps without a
    payload message, the API Gateway will fail the API request
    immediately. This is not a typical use of the PUT and POST
    verbs, however it is not prohibited by the HTTP protocol.
    This API Management code has been updated to allow a PUT or a
    POST in an assembly to have no body.
    This change does not affect the Web Service Invoke behavior,
    which will continue to require a SOAP body when sending an HTTP
    POST.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix
