[Building Sakai] Membership RESTful web service

Tue Aug 19 15:25:15 PDT 2014

Is there a reason you're sending the request from the server instead of sending it from the browser using javascript? The service uses the same session cookie that the rest of sakai uses to tell if a user is logged in or not and that cookie is only visible to the browser or the server that created it. It won't be available to your server which I'm assuming is another java application completely separate from sakai?

Update:
When the user (userId, or userEid) exists it gives me:

  *   JSP page: Exception: 403 Forbidden
  *   Browser with user logged in: {"entityPrefix": "membership", "membership_collection": ......etc, means actual information.
  *   Browser with user not logged in: HTTP Status 403 - Security exception handling request for view (/membership.json), this is typically caused by the current user not having access to the data requested or the user not being logged in at all :: message=Only admin can access other user memberships, current user (null) cannot access ref: admin

When the user (userId, or userEid) does not exist it gives me:

  *   JSP page: Exception: 400 Bad Request
  *   Browser with user logged in: HTTP Status 400 - IllegalArgumentException: Unable to handle output request for format json for this path (/membership.json) for prefix (membership) for entity (/membership), request url (/membership.json): unable to find user.
  *   Browser with user not logged in: Same as above.

Is there any way to make it work like the  /direct/membership service itself, which detects somehow if a user is logged in or not? I don't want the user to log in to the system again.

Best Regards,
Sergio Muriel

This is how I'm making the request:

<%@ page import="org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate" %>
<%  RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
        SakaiUserMemberships userMemberships = restTemplate.getForObject("http://my_server/direct/membership.json?includeSites=false&includeGroups=true&userEid=sergio@hotmail.com", SakaiUserMemberships.class);
%>

SakaiUserMemberships is a bean that represents what /direct/membership gives, but I get a HTTP 400 Bad Request.

Best Regards,
Sergio Muriel

The /direct/membership/describe tells you how to use it. What request are you trying to make and how are you making it?
