Unsolved url_metrics - Error deserializing POST body
-
Hi,
I'm trying to reproduce this Postman url_metrics request in Google Apps Script (GAS) :

But in GAS, I get this error :

I suspect it's the body (line 90) that causes the issue, but can't figure out how to fix it.
Any suggestion ?

Hello, try to use this way it will work:
$username='Access ID'; $password='Secret Key'; $URL='https://lsapi.seomoz.com/v2/url_metrics'; $payload = json_encode(array("targets" => ["moz.com"])); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$URL); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30); //timeout after 30 seconds curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_ANY); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "$username:$password"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $payload); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type:application/json')); $result=curl_exec ($ch); $status_code = curl_getinfo($ch, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE); //get status code curl_close ($ch); print_r(json_decode($result, true));
