Testing Operations

The Test tab of the Edit REST Operation window lets you test Operations and view logging without ever leaving the Connector Wizard.

To test an Operation that you're building, simply specify a Connection, enter values for any Operation Variables you have defined, and then click Test at the bottom.

Note: By default, logging covers only INFO, WARN, and ERROR events. To also include DEBUG events, check Debug Logging.

When you click Test, RunMyJobs makes the service call you have specified, and then the following things happen.

  • The response code displays at the bottom.

  • The following additional tabs display.

    • Response Headers: Use this tab to view the response headers.

    • Response Body: Use this tab to view the response body. If the response is binary, you can download the file (if any) that was returned.

    • Output Parameters: Use this tab to verify that you have correctly extracted the values you need from the response body. In this tab, a null value is represented by <null>.

      If an expected value is not found, a "No value found for output parameter" message displays for that value, but the call is allowed to succeed. You can click Details to view the stack trace for the error.

    • Log: This tab displays the log from the call. In this view, obfuscated values display as rows of asterisks.
