I have this PHP Code that I want to put into UiPath Request

$values = array(
'order_type' => 2, // 2 dropshipping courier, 3 dropshipping with self pick-up (default is 2)
'client_order_name' => 'Popescu Ion', // 'text' (mandatory)
'client_order_number' => '12647098', // numeric (mandatory)
'message' => 'Your message for seller', // text (optional)
'url_awb' => 'https://www.domain.tld/path/awb.pdf', // url (mandatory)
'products' => [
[
 'sku' => '60969',
 'description' => '', // text (optional)
 'quantity' => 1
]
]
);
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
CURLOPT_URL => "https://www.partenerviva.ro/api/orders/new",
CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => "POST",
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => http_build_query($values),
CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array("API-KEY:your-api-key-or-token"),
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
CURLOPT_HEADER => 0,
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT => 5
));
$response = curl_exec($curl);
$err = curl_error($curl);
curl_close($curl);
if ($err) {
echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;
} else {
echo $response;
}


I managed to put it into Postman but it's not the best way because it's difficult to use it in UiPath.

I need a way to send the parameter just as **product[]** and the rest in the value, or some way in which I can pass a variable with all other informations.

Any ideas of how I can transport pruduct[0][sku], product[0][quantity], etc. into just one variable products[]?

Hello @Robert_K

  1. Download the Uipath.WebAPI.Activities from the manage packages and install it.

  2. Use HTTP request activity and pass your API key.

I know how to use APIs, used them a lot.

I don’t know how to put the product Array in the parameter! It’s variable, it could have 3,4,10,100 elements! How can I put that into parameteres because now I put products[0][sku],… products[1][sku]… etc.

It’s not logic I put 100 elements from products[1] to products[100] as parameters and leave them blank… I don’t know even if the server will accept blank posts, or will create blank products…

@Gokul_Jayakumar this was my question

@Robert_K
If it is in a variable, pass API and parameters as a variable in the Properties of the HTTP request.
