Simple example to create service request using API

[Ivan Mazala]

Dear Cloud Team, 

can you help with the following? 

Sample usecase : I want to create a service request, using Hornbill API

 Questions?

1. How do I retrieve an Api endpoint? Please provide an example for this instance : https://live.hornbill.com/
2. Can you provide a working code example that creates a service request, using Hornbill API?
3. Do I also need an  API key secret? Or is API key value sufficient to submit API calls?
4. Is there any additional info that should be included in a web request header/body to make sure that the API call is successful ?
5. What should be included in a web request header? Can you give an example of a web request header?
6. What should be included in a web request body to create a sample service request? Can you give an example with POST request?
7. How can I use Hornbill to authorize? What type of authorization is used?

Hi @Ivan Mazala,

Have you had a look in our wiki? Specifically: https://wiki.hornbill.com/index.php?title=XMLMC_API_Quickstart

[Ivan Mazala]

the documentation you have is not sufficient. There is not a single working end to end example.

Hi @Ivan Mazala,

There are plenty of code examples in our github repository: https://github.com/hornbill/

The following specific project might be considered the most useful: https://github.com/hornbill/powershellHornbillAzureRunbooks

If you want further specifics, the route would be consultancy.
