Bad Server Response

[VinhPN]

Hi, I am trying to execute an ajax call, but I keep getting "Bad server response". I am trying to get a list of ID's and put them into a separate text file

Here is my ajax call:

            var id = value.substring(value.indexOf('id=')+3, value.length-1);

            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "/custom/idList.php",
                data: {"str": id},
                success: function(){
                console.log("success");
                }
            });

Here is my PHP file under \api\v1\custom

if(isset($_POST["str"])){
    $id = $_POST["str"];
    file_put_contents('path.txt', $id);
}

What am I doing incorrectly?

Hi,
first give full code and the path.
Why /custom ? why Api ?

Here sample :

$.ajax({
url: 'Contact/action/test',
type: 'POST',
data: JSON.stringify({
id: this.model.id
}),

success: function (data) {
if (data){
Espo.Ui.notify("Done", 'success', 1000);
}else{
Espo.Ui.notify("Error", 'error', 1000);
}
}
});

And then put controller and get ID

Regards. (I am not a specialist but it's work)

Hello,
I put it the PHP code in /api/v1/custom because the url path is /espo/api/v1/ + whatever is in the url
What is the path to Contact/action/test?

Here is the full code JS code for the action in /espo/client/custom/src/views/test/record

actionGenerateReport: function (data) {
            var parentid = data.id;


            if (!parentid) {
                return;
            }
            var model = this.collection.get(parentid);
            if (!model) {
                return;
            }

        //Find attachments and append the links to an array
        var attachments = this.$el.find('[data-id=' + parentid + ']').find('[data-name=capaAttachments]');
        var links = [];
        $(attachments).children().each(function() {
        links.push($(this).find('a').attr('href'));
        });
        $.each(links, function(index, value){
        var path = window.location.hostname + '/espo' + value;

          //Sends ids to php to write into a file
            var id = value.substring(value.indexOf('id=')+3, value.length-1);

            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "custom/idList.php",
                data: {"str": id},
                success: function(data){
                    if(data){
                    console.log("success");
                    }else{
                    console.log("fail");
                    }
               }
        });
});

and the PHP code is in espo/api/v1/custom/idList.php

<?php


if(isset($_POST["str"])){
    $id = $_POST["str"];
    file_put_contents('id.txt', $id);
}else{
echo "fail";
}
exec('script.bat');

?>

Running the code shows Bad server response: fail, which I am assuming is because $_POST is not set. Can you also post a sample PHP?

Nice,
put a file in :

Ajax Call so : I think you have put a a button : then this on your detail.js
$.ajax({
url: 'YOURENTITY/action/GenerateReport',
type: 'POST',
data: JSON.stringify({
id: this.model.id
}),

success: function (data) {
if (data){
Espo.Ui.notify("Done", 'success', 1000);
}else{
Espo.Ui.notify("Error", 'error', 1000);
}
}
});

in : custom/espo/custom/controllers/YOUR_ENTITY.php

<?php

namespace Espo\Custom\Controllers;

class YOUR_ENTITY extends \Espo\Core\Templates\Controllers\TYPE_OF_ENTITY like Person.. like .. ?
{
public function actionGenerateReport($params, $data, $request)
{
HERE FIND YOUR $params/ data/ request ..
$data->id =>> id (see up id: this.model.id )

}
}

Hi

Yes, it is a button in record/detail.js

I replaced the ajax call so that it is the same as the what you have (except YOURENTITY has been replaced)

In custom/espo/custom/controllers/test.php, I have:

<?php

namespace Espo\Custom\Controllers;

class test extends \Espo\Core\Templates\Controllers\BasePlus
{
    public function postActionGenerateReport($params, $data)
    {
        if (empty($data->id)) {
            throw new BadRequest();
        }

        return $data->id;
    }
}

Which just returns the ID back, as a test, however, the "Bad server response" notification is still popping up. The console says "Bad server response: 5c40d2768b4e3634b", which is the id. I have tried actionGenerateReport and postActionGenerateReport, both of them do not work.
Is there anything else I should double check for errors?

Not really understand why you add Post or change NameOfEntity .. but why you change what I have posted ?
I have send my working sample... espoCRM work with JSON..

  <?php  namespace Espo\Custom\Controllers;  class NameOfYourEntity extends \Espo\Core\Templates\Controllers\BasePlus {     public function actionGenerateReport($params, $data, $request)     {         if (empty($data->id)) {             throw new BadRequest();         }         console.log($data->id);         return $data;     } }

Excellent explanation, helped me develop my own custom ajax call. Thanks for taking the time to explain every step and for posting the code.
