500 Response when making API call to update template

[brennenawana]

This has been working consistently in the past and just stopped working today.
Here is my request and response:

  Faraday.put(
      "https://api.hubapi.com/content/api/v2/templates/#{ENV["HS_BLOG_SHOW_ID"]}\?hapikey\=#{ENV["HS_API_KEY"]}",
      { "source": File.read(ENV["BLOG_SHOW_PATH"]) }.to_json
    )

     "connection"=>"close"},
   status=500,
   reason_phrase="Internal Server Error">,

What do I need to do to fix this?

[brennenawana]

Yes! That was the issue. Thanks for the quick response. Two thumbs up

This does indeed look to be our problem as well, there must have been a change to make requests a bit stricter

Will be great to have a better error message for this @dadams

Thanks.

Hi @brennenawana

You’ll need to include the content-type: application/json header in your request. The current request has Content-Type"=>"application/x-www-form-urlencoded, which is causing that error.

We’re working on a fix for this so that you’ll get a 415 Unsupported Media Type error for this instead of the generic 500 when the content-type is incorrect.

[brennenawana]

Thanks @dadams. Let me try that out right now.

We are also getting 500 server errors when attempting to make calls to the Blog Post create endpoint.
