LI82237: BODY GREYED OUT FOR DELETE OPERATIONS

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• We have an API with a DELETE operation that accepts a payload.
  We have the "Keep Payload" option checked in our invoke policy
  so the API works correctly, but we have in issue with the test
  client in the Web GUI. The test client disables the Body tab
  when you select a DELETE operation (see
  Disabled-delete-body.PNG). If you select an operation like a
  POST that allows a body you can then select the Body tab and
  enter the content. If you then switch back to the DELETE tab you
  can test and while you still cannot edit the body the client
  will pass the content to the operation.
  
  
  
  I have attached an API that will help show the issue
  (demo-issue_delete.payload.yaml) and a simple API I use to echo
  back the request (echo_1.0.0 (2).yaml). I have also attached
  screenshots of the UI issue.
  
  
  
  To recreate:
  
  1) Select the Test tab for an API that has a DELETE and POST
  operation
  
  2) Select the DELETE operation, the Body tab will be disabled.
  If you submit the request now an empty body will be sent to the
  API.
  
  3) Select a POST operation
  
  4) Select the Body tab and enter some value JSON
  
  5) Select the DELETE operation
  
  6) Submit the request and the DELETE will be called with the
  payload
