Automations Custom Format

[eitak]

I'm playing around with the Zephyr Scale API for the purposes of connecting it to automated tests.  I've been trying to upload a custom format zip file per the documentation here, but I keep getting the following failure response:

{
    "errorCode": 400,
    "message": "Malformed zip archive",
    "status": "Bad Request"
}

I'm using content-type = multipart/form-data and using Postman as my http agent.  Is there any other documentation available about what this zip file is supposed to look like?

Hi.

I faced the same problem when I set the wrong form data parameter name.

 

To fix this problem, the parameter name should be "file".

I hope that could help you.

Best regards.

Ah ha! Postman was defaulting to a capital F rather than lower case.  Changing "File" to "file" solved it.

Hello,

I am also trying to attach result in Zephyr cloud. I am using ReadyAPI/SOAPUI tool. even if I follow the steps you mention I get the attached error.

Can you suggest what is the request body that you are sending?

I was not able to see the entire message. But it looks like something regarding the projectKey. Could you please paste here the entire error message?

Hello,
I made few changes and now I am getting attached error.

I am passing projectKey: "My project Key" and autoCreateTestCases: " true" in the params.
In Body apart from file i am passing testCycle as text and "

"name" : "SoapUI TestCycle1",

"description" : "Regression test cycle 1 to ensure no breaking changes",

"folderId": ******

" as value.

Not sure if there is any pre-requisite i should have done in Jira Zephyr. Can you please let me know if there is any pre-requisite to complete this API. Also as per API document this API should create new Test cycle with new test case, how does that work? I am implementing this for first time hence really appreciate your help.
