Hi, Was trying to connect to Collibra rest api with "Post". My curl command is successful. However, on ADF, I got "Client error, status code 406". I have additional headers set with "Content-type" as application/json. my curl cmd is:
curl -u 'username' -X 'POST' \
'https://org_name.collibra.com/rest/2.0/outputModule/export/csv?validationEnabled=false&headerRow=true' \
-H 'accept: text/plain' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d 'request_body_in_json_string'
Hi Shaik, Thanks for answering my question. Actually, ADF ignores "Accept" entered in "Additional headers" with message "REST connector ignores any "Accept" header specified in additional headers. As REST connector only supports response in JSON, it will auto generate a header of Accept: application/json." I also tried json export using url: https://org_name.collibra.com/rest/2.0/outputModule/export/json?validationEnabled=false Same issue -- curl command runs successfully but on ADF, it fails with 406 error.
Had a support call with Microsoft and was suggested using HTTP service. It is not a perfect solution and had take quite a few workarounds. Really need this feature to be evaluated and issues corrected.
Hi Thomas Zhang,
Thank you for posting query in Microsoft Q&A Platform.
The error message you received indicates that the server cannot provide a response that matches the characteristics specified in your request headers.
Based on the curl command you provided, it seems like you are requesting a CSV file export with a JSON request body. However, the "accept" header in your request specifies that you are expecting a plain text response. This could be causing the 406 error.
To resolve this issue, you can try changing the "accept" header to "text/csv" to match the expected response format. Additionally, you may want to double-check that the request body you are sending is in the correct JSON format and that all required fields are included.
If you are still having trouble after making these changes, please let me know and provide any additional information or error messages you receive.
