I am connecting to an openapi called Geo Census: https://geocoding.geo.census.gov/geocoder/. I am able to make a complete Post call using 2 parameters in the “form-data” spot. So my call looks like this when I select code:
POST /geocoder/locations/addressbatch HTTP/1.1
Host: geocoding.geo.census.gov
cache-control: no-cache
Postman-Token: a64cba1f-e6d9-45da-a0f6-859bceea811a
Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="addressFile"; filename="C:\Users\ccushman.INTERCERVE\Documents\Addresses.csv
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="benchmark"
4
------WebKitFormBoundary7MA4YWxkTrZu0gW--
This works but when I try to make this call manually with a 3rd party SSIS tool, I get a 500 internal server error:
While attempting to geocode your batch input, an error occurred validating and processing the parameters that were provided.
Please validate the benchmark, vintage (if this is a geographies batch geocode request), and addressFile parameter values that are being used and retry your batch geocode request.
More information and documentation (available in HTML and PDF formats) about the Census Geocoder and how to use it can be found here: https://geocoding.geo.census.gov/
I would like to see the full request of the Post call from Postman that works. I don’t believe the whole call is being shown in the Code button at the top right corner of the app. Is there a way to see this?
