Snap Settings

Field Name	Field Type	Description
Label* Default Value: REST Get Example: Get User Details	String	Specify a unique name for the Snap.
Service URL* Default Value: N/A Example: https://elastic.snaplogic.com/api/1/rest/ public/runtime/snaplogic? start=1430377200000&end=1430420399000	String/Expression	Specify the service endpoint URL of REST API. You can provide the URL in one of the following ways: As a JavaScript expression in expression language. For example: `http://coresnapsqa-v4.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/S3Account/'+encodeURIComponent("Special_char_owner_!3)12.json")` As a plain string that you should enclose in double quotes (""). For example: `"https://www.example.com/slm/webservice/v2.0/defect/%s".replace("%s", $.widg et.id)` For Snaps using AWS Signature V4 accounts, you can use the canonical name (CNAME) for the URI so it's not necessary for the URL to end with amazonaws.com or have the region and service provided in it. However, if you are using the CNAME you must provide it in the AWS Region and Service Name fields in the AWS Signature V4 account. The host name in the CNAME must be equal to the bucket name. For example: Previous URI: `https://jsmith-bucket.nia3.snaplogic.net.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/HttpClientTest/test1` New URI with CNAME: `https://jsmith-sltest.nia3.snaplogic.net/HttpClientTest/test1` Here, the bucket name is `jsmith-bucket.nia3.snaplogic.net` The Snap finds the value at the JSON path $.widget.id in the input data and replaces "%s" in the Service URL with the value. You can connect File Reader and JSON Parser Snaps upstream of a REST Put Snap and prepare the following JSON file for the File Reader Snap: The Service URL for a REST snap must be valid. If the Service URL contains any special characters, such as !, =, %21, $, and ^, the Snap throws an exception error. You can escape the special characters (using expression language) with one of the following methods: Use the global function `encodeURIComponent` on any variables that might contain special characters so that they are encoded properly. For example: `http://coresnapsqa-v4.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/S3Account /'+encodeURIComponent(_fileName)` If you are aware of the code, use the code directly in the Service URL field. For example (where `<%213%2912>` is the code): `http://coresnapsqa-v4.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/S3Account /Special_char_owner_%213%2912.json` We recommend that you use the `encodeURIComponent` method to escape the special characters.
Process array Default Value: Deselected	Checkbox	Select to produce a stream of documents with one record in each document. If the Process Array property is selected, it takes a response that’s an array `[{"value": 1}, {"value": 2}]` and provides the individual inner json as separate documents. If the content provided doesn’t parse with the provided `Content-Type`, the snap will error. If the Process Array property is not selected, the Snaps attempts to convert the entity to a string or a byte array depending on the response headers.
Trust all certificates Default Value: Deselected	Checkbox	Select this checkbox to trust all certificates, such as self-signed certificates.
Follow redirects Default Value: Selected	Checkbox	Select this checkbox to enable the Snap to follow redirects. If you select this checkbox, the Snap receives a redirect response, such as a 301 or 302 response code, it sends another request to the URL specified in the response Location header. If you deselect this checkbox, the Snap does not make another request, and the 301/302 response appears in the output view.
Query parameters Default Value: N/A Example: $User	Use this field set to add query parameters to your request. This field set comprises the following fields: Query parameter Query parameter value
Query parameter Default Value: N/A Example: id	String	The name of the query parameter.
Query parameter value Default Value: N/A Example: $widget.id	String/Expression	The value that you want to assign to the parameter. This property is expression-enabled. For more information on the expression language, see Understanding Expressions in SnapLogic and Using Expressions. For information on Pipeline Parameters, see Pipeline Properties.
HTTP Header	Use this field set to create the HTTP header key-value pairs required for defining the headers for different types of input (JSON, PDF, DOCX, and so on). If you want to specify only content-type headers, you can configure the Multipart Content-Type property instead. This field set comprises the following fields: Key Value
Key Default Value: N/A Example: content-type	String/Expression	The name of the HTTP header. This property is expression-enabled. For more information on the expression language, see Understanding Expressions in SnapLogic and Using Expressions. For information on Pipeline Parameters, see Pipeline Properties.
Value Default Value: N/A Example: application/json	String/Expression	The value that you want to assign to the HTTP header. This property is expression-enabled. For more information on the expression language, see Understanding Expressions in SnapLogic and Using Expressions. For information on Pipeline Parameters, see Pipeline Properties.
Response entity type Default Value: DEFAULT Example: TEXT	Dropdown list	Select one of the following response entity types you want the Snap to display in the output document.: DEFAULT - Select this option to enable the Snap to process the response automatically. The response entity is processed automatically based on the `Content-Type` header in the response. If the content provided does not parse with the provided `Content-Type`, the snap will result in an error. The following two scenarios describe the Snap’s behavior when using the Process Array checkbox:: When you select the Process Array checkbox, the Snap parses JSON or XML and produces a stream of documents at the output view. When you deselect the Process Array checkbox, the Snaps sends the data as it is at the output view. TEXT - Select this option to enable, the Snap to produce an entity of string type. BINARY - Select this option to enable the Snap to produce an entity of byte array type. If you select TEXT or BINARY, the Snap does not parse the entity content. If you select DEFAULT, the Snap produces the expected result in most cases, but if it fails to process as expected, you can set the Response entity type to TEXT or BINARY.
Cookie Policy Default Value: Ignore Cookies Example: RFC Strict	Dropdown list	Select a Cookie Policy from the following options: Browser Compatibility: This policy is compatible with different servers even if they are not completely standards-compliant. If you are facing issues while parsing cookies, you should try using this policy. Ignore Cookies: This cookie policy ignores all cookies. You should use this policy to prevent HTTP Client from accepting and sending cookies. RFC Strict: This policy uses the `set-cookie` header RFC Lax: The policy uses `set-cookie` and `set-cookie2` for parsing.
Read timeout Default Value: 900 Example: 60	Integer	Specify the number of seconds for which the Snap waits before aborting the request due to a failure to read from the target service. In some cases, the request does not return, such as during network issues. For those a timeout can be configured to allow failing fast. Every Snap instance can have its own timeout settings. The Snap will execute five retries within a couple of seconds back-off time before it fails.
Connection timeout Default Value: 30 Example: 60	Integer	Specify the number of seconds for which the Snap waits before aborting the request due to a failure to establish a connection to the target endpoint or service.
Maximum request attempts Default Value: 5 Example: 3	Integer	Specify the maximum number of attempts that the Snap must make to receive a response. If the attempts do not result in a response, the Snap terminates the request.
Retry request interval Default Value: 3 Example: 10	Integer	Specify the time in seconds to wait before retrying the request.
Retry Policy Default Value: Connection errors Example: All errors	String	Select how you want to handle connection and error responses from the following options: Connection errors: Occurs when a client fails to establish a secure connection to the server. Connection and auth errors (401/403): Occurs when either the user authorization fails or access to the page/resource is forbidden. Connection and client errors (4xx): Occurs when the request for the resource contains bad syntax or when the resource is not found (404). Connection and server errors (5xx): Occurs when the server is unable to complete a request. All errors: Applies to all of the above-listed errors.
Normalize URL	Checkbox	Select this checkbox to normalize the Service URL. This enables the Snap to convert double slashes (//) in the URL path to single slash (/). For example, https://example.com/path//to//file is converted to https://example.com/path/to/file. Deselecting this check box reverts the Snap to 4.19 Snaplex behavior, wherein the URL paths were not normalized by default. In the 4.20 Release, due to the HTTP client upgrade the URL paths were normalized by default. Hence, there was a change in behavior in handling the URL paths in 4.20 release when compared to 4.19. This change in behavior should not impact the existing Pipelines, because most of the websites map URL paths with double or single slashes to the same endpoint. For example, https://snaplogic.com/company/diversity and https://snaplogic.com//company//diversity direct to the same endpoint. Therefore, we recommend you to select the Normalize URL checkbox. However, an exception to this is when you use non-standard URLs that differentiate the URL paths containing double slashes from those with single slashes and map them to different endpoints, in which case you must deselect Normalize URL check box. For example, http://host/pages/foo.html and http://host/pages//foo.html point to different URIs, and servers assign different meanings to them. Default Value: Selected Example: Deselected
Has next Default Value: N/A Example: $entity['has-more']	String/Expression	Enter the expression that must be evaluated on the output document to true or false, to indicate whether there are more records available. The Snap continues to read the next page until this expression evaluates to false in the new set of output documents. Has next is a property in the API response that indicates whether there are more records to be fetched. This property is used for the REST Get pagination feature, which retrieves 20 records at a time (referred to as a page), by default. Learn more about REST Get#RESTGetPagination. To see this property in action, see Retrieving Contact Information from HubSpot or Retrieving Contact Information from HubSpot Using Upstream Values, below. This field is null-safe; if the evaluated value is null, or if there is no value provided in Has next field, the Snap stops the pagination.
Next URL Default Value: N/A Example: $entity['has-more']	String/Expression	Enter the expression that is evaluated on the output document to a URL that the Snap must use to get the next page. This property is used for the REST Get pagination feature. The Next URL has two components, which are structured as follows: `"<endpoint_URL>&<offset_indicator>=" + $entity['last_ID_retrieved']` The first component contains the URL of the endpoint and an instruction to look for the offset indicator. ("<endpoint_URL>&<offset_indicator>="). The second component is a pointer to the parameter in the API response that contains the ID of the last entity retrieved. This tells the endpoint that the next page must contain entities that are returned after the entity number listed in the Next URL. You can create the Next URL in either of the following ways: You can enter the entire URL in the expression and include the parameter required to fetch the next set of documents. Example: `"`https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/lists/all/contacts/all?hapikey=demo&vidOffset=`" + $entity['vid-offset']` If you have the URL part of the Next URL as an input from an upstream Snap, you can structure the Next URL expression using the original parameter in the API response received. For example, if you have the following input coming from upstream: You can configure the Next URL field as follows: Here, `vid-offset` is the API response parameter containing the ID of the last output received from the endpoint. If the API response does not contain a field with information about the last entity retrieved, you can use the Snap's output document count to fetch the next page. For example, `<https://domain.com/object/page/' + (snap.out.totalCount + 1).toString()>` For additional information, see Retrieving Contact Information from HubSpot or Retrieving Contact Information from HubSpot Using Upstream Values. The Next URL is evaluated as an expression but not encoded, which is the general behavior of the Snap.
Pagination interval(s) Default Value: 0 Example: 10	Integer	The number of seconds for the Snap to wait before attempting to get the next page.
Show all headers Default Value: Deselected	Checkbox	The REST endpoint may return a response with multiple headers with the same header name. If this property is deselected, only one response header will be shown in the output document. If selected, the response header displays all the response header values received as a list of objects. If any of these objects has a key-value format, it is parsed into the map data.
Snap Execution Default Value: Validate & Execute Example: Validate & Execute	String	Select one of the following three modes in which the Snap executes: Validate & Execute: Performs limited execution of the Snap, and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation. Subsequently, performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime. Execute only: Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data. Disabled: Disables the Snap and all Snaps that are downstream from it.

REST Get Pagination

When making REST API calls to a specific endpoint using the GET method, there might be a lot of results to return. We use the pagination settings to fetch all the records/documents on multiple pages. For example, if the GET API call returns 20 documents by default, to get all other pages/records, we use Has Next field and get the list of all records until the last record.

Using REST Get to Process gzip Compressed Data

The response can provide gzipped data. In that case, the Snap can be configured to process it using the header parameter:

HTTP Header

Key	Value
Accept-Encoding	gzip
Accept	/

The stream is then uncompressed while parsing the data and making it available on the output view.

Troubleshooting

Error	Reason	Resolution
Failed to execute HTTP request.	The Service URL must have a protocol, such as http://, https://.	Check the Snap properties. Specifically, check your entry in the Service URL field.
Failed to execute HTTP request.	<Service_URL>: Name or service not known. This basically means that the service URL you entered is not accessible.
Failure: Validation errors: property_map.settings.serviceUrl.value: Could not compile expression: <Service_URL>	The snap settings are not correct. Encountered extraneous input ':' at line 1:5; expecting={<EOF>, '\|\|', '&&', '^', '==', '!=', '>', '<', '>=', '<=', '+', '-', '', '/', '%', '?', 'instanceof', 'in', 'matches', '[', '(', '.', PropertyRef}. This means that you have turned expressions on () while entering string value into the Service URL* field.	Fix the snap configuration and try executing again. Please check expression syntax. Ensure that your service URL is a proper expression; or turn off the expression control (). For more information on the expression language, see Understanding Expressions in SnapLogic and Using Expressions.
URL Parse Exception - 403	The Service URL path might be containing any of the following special characters: !, =, %, #, $, ^&()_¢äâêîôûñç¡¿ÉÙËÇ¨°¸ðø©¢¾A+²½µ®§÷¶þ	To escape the special characters, use the global function encodeURIComponent on any variables that might contain special characters so that they are encoded properly.
Too many Requests - 429	There are too many requests to REST endpoint.	Wait for the retry to succeed. Rest related Snaps extract the response header and automatically retry when they encounter status 429. By default, the retry interval (Retry-After) is specified in the HTTP response header. If no value is available for Retry-After, then the Snap’s Retry Interval value is used.

Examples

Retrieving Contact Information from HubSpot

In this example, we use the Has next field to retrieve the list of users created most recently in HubSpot, then separate the user information from the other details in the API response.

Download this Pipeline

Step 1: Configure the REST Get Snap to retrieve user information from HubSpot. Configure the REST Get Snap without the Pagination details - Has Next and Next URL.

Step 2: Validate the Snap. The Snap displays the output with only 20 records and has more value as true indicating that there are more records.

Step 3: Next, configure the Has Next and Next URL fields as follows:

REST Get configuration details: The following configuration details are key to understanding this example:

Field	Value	Description
Service URL	https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/lists/all/contacts/all?hapikey=demo	This is a demo API offered by HubSpot, which returns details of all contacts created in the demo account, in descending order. This API only scrolls back 30 days in time.
Has next	$entity['has-more']	The REST Get Snap lists 20 documents by default. If there are more contacts created during the 30 days preceding the call, this API returns true for the key has-more.
Next URL	"https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/lists/all/contacts/all?hapikey=demo&vidOffset=" + $entity['vid-offset']	This is the URL that the Snap calls to retrieve the next set of 20 documents. In this URL, `vid-offset` is the ID of the last user whose details were retrieved in the preceding call. For example, if the ID of the last user in the API response is 12345, then that will be the value of the vid-offset parameter.

Step 4: Execute the Snap—it lists out API response entities in sets of 20, until the last contact information is listed out, and the has-more field changes to false:

Step 5: Configure the JSON Splitter Snap. The output from the REST Get Snap contains a lot of details, but for this example we only want user details, which are available in the entity.contacts array in the API response. Use the JSON Splitter Snap to isolate the information.

The output of the JSON Splitter Snap contains only the information we need:

Retrieving Contact Information from HubSpot Using Upstream Values

In this example, we use values from the upstream Snap in the Has next property of the REST Get Snap to retrieve the list of users created most recently in HubSpot.

Step 1: Configure the JSON Generator Snap. Enter the endpoint URL as follows:

Execute the Snap—it gets the following output:

Step 2: Configure the REST Get Snap to retrieve user information from HubSpot.

The following configuration details are critical to understand this example:

Field	Value	Description
Service URL	https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/lists/all/contacts/all?hapikey=demo	This is a demo API offered by HubSpot, which lists out a few details of their most recently created users in descending order. This API only scrolls back 30 days in time.
Has next	$entity['has-more']	The Get all contacts API offers 20 documents by default. If there are more contacts created during the 30 days preceding the call, this API returns true for the key has-more.
Next URL	$original.url+ "=" + $entity['vid-offset']	This is the expression that uses the value received from the upstream JSON Generator Snap to create the URL that the Snap calls to retrieve the next set of documents. In this URL, `vid-offset` is the ID of the last user whose details were retrieved in the preceding call. For example, if the ID of the last user in the API response is 12345, then that will be the value of the `vid-offset` parameter.

Step 2: Execute the Snap. It lists out API response entities in sets of 20, until the last contact information is listed out, and the has-more field changes to false.

Connecting to the SnapLogic API

You can use the REST Get Snap to get information from the Pipeline Monitoring API. For example, to return the status of executed pipelines for the specified time within the org Snaplogic, the GET statement of GET https://elastic.snaplogic.com/api/1/rest/public/runtime/snaplogic?start=1430377200000&end=1430420399000 can be passed through the REST Get Snap as shown below:

REST Get Pagination: Eloqua

For Eloqua, set:

Has Next: ($total - ($page*$pageSize)) > 0
Next URL: “/assets/campaigns?count=2&page=” + (resultdoc.page +1)

REST Get Pagination: Marketo

For Marketo, set:

Has Next: resultdoc.moreResult
Next URL: “/rest/v1/activities.json?nextPageToken=” + resultdoc.nextPageToken + ”&activityTypeIds=1&activityTypeIds=12”

REST Get handles multiple response cookies

In this Pipeline, we request for a service URL 'https://mockbin.com/bin/f580f547-310a-44da-bec2-e43890eebe26' using the Rest Get Snap, where the REST endpoint returns the HTTP response with multiple cookies under the same header. We connected the JSON Splitter Snap to view the cookies under the header 'set-cookie'.

We enter the JSON Path as $headers['set-cookie'] in the JSON Snap

The successful execution of the Pipeline displays the below output view in which we can see the two cookies, {JSESSIONID:first, Path:/} and {ORA_OD_OSI:second, Path:/} respectively under the header'set-cookie'.
