I am trying to build out a custom connector which needs to first make a GET call to retrieve a CSRFToken from both cookie and Form in the body, then respond with a POST passing back the cookie and the token form. I've been unable to accomplish this as the initial GET isn't storing the return. I've attempted using the after_response to handle response but have since changed my code. Any pointers will be greatly appreciated!!
I've yet to code the POST as I've failed to even store the initial GET which is required for the POST.
Full connection line:
Relevant Authorization section:
authorization: {
type: "custom_auth",
acquire: lambda do |connection|
response=get("/local/login/")
{
cookies: response['headers']['Set-Cookie'],
body: response['body'],
response:response
}
end,
apply: lambda do |connection|
if current_verb.match?("post") and current_url.include?("login")
puts "apply if"
payload(
username:connection["username"],
password:connection["password"],
csrftoken:connection["cookies"],
next:"",
this_is_the_login_form:1
)
headers('Referer': 'https://server.com/local/login/','Cookies': connection["cookie"])
end
puts "------End Apply------"
end,
refresh_on: [
403,
404,
302,
'Forbidden',
'unexpected token',
'this_is_the_login_form'
],
detect_on: [
404,
403,
302,
'Forbidden',
'unexpected token',
'this_is_the_login_form'
],
},
test: lambda do |connection|
get("system/serial/")
end
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @fsantaana,
Not sure, if this helps, as it doesn't sound like a "normal" API. However, you can instruct Workato not to parse the response in any way using the method: response_format_raw
With that, you can parse the response yourself and do whatever is need to extract the required information.
Cheers,

I've been receiving this error:
authorized_at: 2023-06-28T14:17:44.718-05:00,
authorization_status: exception,
authorization_error: unexpected token at '<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" xml:lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
From what I understand, this is because Workato is expecting a JSON response and so parsing HTML response is failing. In the Debug I see Response Content-Type is text/html. So the question is, can Workato handle a text/html response? How can I handle this? I need to extract the Response Cookie and a value from the Form on the HTML page.

Thanks @chris-wiechmann ! that response_format_raw did the trick and I am now able to process the return for login!
