As was pointed out in the comments: Your JSON formatting is off, so the API doesn't understand that you're asking for the URL.
For an understanding of what's going on, take a look at the example request in the link you provided; note the format of the fields section.
Try again, this time with:
{"survey_id": "47625442", "fields": ["url"]}
...which with the escapes will look like this....
{\"survey_id\": \"47625442\", \"fields\":[ \"url\" ]}"

The workfront API isn't returning the same results as our web report:
On our web front-end on workfront one of the reports has a date range from $$TODAYbw to $$TODAYe+6m and it returned about ~500 rows.
I tried the same query on the API like so (formatted for easier reading)
/v7.0/RSALLO/search
?fields=DE:project:Probability,allocationDate,scheduledHours,project:name,project:status,roleID,project:status,role:name
&allocationDate_Mod=between
&allocationDate=$$TODAYbw
&allocationDate_Range=$$TODAYe+6m
&AND:0:project:status_Mod=notin
&AND:0:project:status=CPL
&AND:0:project:status=DED
&AND:0:project:status=REJ
&AND:0:project:status=UZF
&AND:0:project:status=IDA
&AND:0:roleID_Mod=in
&AND:0:roleID=55cb58b8001cc9bc1bd9767e080f6c10
&AND:0:roleID=55cb58b8001cc9bd9fc0f8b03a581493
&AND:0:roleID=55cb58b8001cc9bfaa01243cd6024b6d
&AND:0:roleID=55cb58b8001cc9c0afa399dece405efd
&$$LIMIT=1000
which returned barely any results. Notice the &allocationDate_Range=$$TODAYe+6m line. If I change it to read =$$TODAY+6m without the end of day modifier the API returns ~500 rows.
I went through every filter criteria and it's only the allocationDate range that is going wrong. I found this resource for the date modifiers and in it there is no e+6m example, yet it works on our web front-end report.
Is the API flawed or is the web report doing something extra in the background?
I don't have an exact solution for your problem, but I can confirm that the API does have some difficulty parsing wildcards like you're trying to use and they don't always come up the way we expect. Furthermore, the API doesn't parse things the same way as text mode reporting, so a query that looks great in the latter might return something different in the former.
If I may propose a different solution, since you're already coding this up outside of Workfront then I suggest you simply perform the date calculations on your own and pass explicit datetime objects to Workfront instead of allowing it to use its own logic. I know this doesn't answer the question of "what is a query that will return exactly what I want" but it should give you the correct end result.
For what it's worth, I spent about 15 minutes trying to get an example working on my end and I gave up after it kept returning values which should have been outside of my own date range.
I am working on iOS project and sending the Json string to backend through wcf webservice, Its working successfully for many users but for some users backend getting incomplete json string.
Code for generating Json string
NSData *data = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:EmployeeDetails options:0 error:nil];
NSString *JsonString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:data
encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
And Attaching the json string with request by below code
[request setValue:#"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" forHTTPHeaderField:#"Content-Type"];
[request setHTTPBody:[jsonString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
EmployeeDetails is NSMutableDictionary with employee details.
And
Here is successful Json string deserialized from BackEnd
{"FirstName":"Donald","LastCBPaymentType":6,"AcceptEmail":true,"CellPhone":"321-300-6874","Position":"3","CarrierNum":"4","EmpNum":"96874"}
And Incomplete Json string
{"FirstName":"roset","LastCBPaymentType":6,"AcceptEmail":true,"CellPhone":"321-300-6874","Position":"3","CarrierNum":"4","EmpNum":"98799
The incomplete json string occuring in backend for some user.
Any one can help to solve this issue ?
Well, I'd say TomSwift is on the right track... It's apparent that the broken JSON is simply missing "} from the end of the string. That does indeed look like something being sanitised by a regex...
You really should find the source of the problem; But for a quick and dirty fix while you figure it out, you could just run your own regex on the JSON you receive and if it doesn't end with a "}, just add it... First do something like: '/"[0-9]+$/' (to check if there is an open numeric string at the end, if there is, you close it by adding " ) then check if '/}$/' (if } is the last char, if it isn't: add it).
Remember, the above would only be a temporary fix (as it is somewhat heavy and not really that pretty), but I could imagine myself being forced to do something like this, simply because of time constraints. If the issue is actually coming from within the API, you could tell the creators about it and use something like that fix above while they fixed it.
PS. If anyone does choose to use a fix like the above, please please please, for the love of all that you hold holy, leave a comment in the code explaining why you did it (as opposed to telling us what you did...).
I had a similar problem in PHP/CodeIgniter recently and the problem was that the JSON was being "sanitized" via some overly ambitious regular expressions before it arrived to my handler. Perhaps there's some similar sanitization that happens in WCF?
Things I would try:
Using Charles Proxy to confirm that the request (POST?) is actually sending the full body as you expect.
Try Content-Type application/json instead.
I have a physical path to a file.
c:\fullpath\filename.jpg
But when using:
context.Response.WriteFile(fullPath)
I end up with stuff like:
Õ"+*Br¾Ì˜ 0|-9ÇáæfáU®Ån¿aÙ޽njÞöôþ½òÀ)"™G¦Ù0k6Í\fÃx›Ífz0]kEþÏÚª‰“Ù{^Æú™‹*òòç (?&:o ‘Už%8x8ÜØ#g
In the browser.. Of course, a whole lot more of it.
I know it's a broad question, but hoping someone might be able to spot what the issue might be based on the above. My actual code is massive, and much more complex, so something is messing it up, and too much to try to parse through and explain on here, so again... Just hoping someone might have an idea as to why this is happening just based on what I've shown above.
You're writing the content of a binary file to the response. We don't know what else you've written to the response, or what you've set the content type to. If your response content type is text/plain or something similar, then that's the problem. If you make the content type reflect the actual kind of content you're putting in the response, it should be fine.
Of course, you shouldn't include data like this in the midst of a response which also contains HTML etc - unless you're doing something very odd, this should be the only data in the response.

Say I have a sample Json format string as
string per1 = #"[{""Email"":""AAA"",""mj_campaign_id"":""22"",""mj_contact_id"":""PPP"",""customcampaign"":""AAA"",""blocked"":""22"",""hard_bounce"":""PPP"",""blocked"":""22"",""hard_bounce"":""PPP""},"
+ #"{""Email"":""BBB"",""mj_campaign_id"":""25"",""mj_contact_id"":""QQQ"",""customcampaign"":""AAA"",""blocked"":""22"",""hard_bounce"":""PPP"",""blocked"":""22""},"
+ #"{""Email"":""CCC"",""mj_campaign_id"":""38"",""mj_contact_id"":""RRR"",""customcampaign"":""AAA"",""blocked"":""22"",""hard_bounce"":""PPP""}]";
I am trying to deserialize it using
var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(per1);
Its working fine as long as all the rows of the string has values for the following attributes Email, mj_campaign_id, mj_contact_id, customcampaign, blocked, hard_bounce, error_related_to, error. But when I skip some sttribute values in some rows its throwing an error saying
Can not add Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JValue to Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JObject.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Your error is because you are not assigning a value to an object, which you need to do. If you remove the value, at least add an empty string.
THAT SAID!
Herein lies the danger of manually building JSON strings. You should always avoid it if you can. If you are reading from a web page, that web page should serialize the payload for you, and then you should deserialize it with whatever you are using to pull in the payload (controller, restful service, etc). The beauty of .NET is that it handles all of this plumbing for you and you really are going to run into painful issues if you try to reinvent the .NET wheel
