Tableau REST API: Using Javascript to get the Token -


i complete beginner rest api , not figure out how proceed. installed postman , able token, not sure how send raw xml payload in javascript.

 <tsrequest>       <credentials name ="xxx" password="yyy"  >            <site contenturl = "" />       </credentials>  </tsrequest> 

i have :

 httprequest.open('post', 'http://my-server/api/2.4/auth/signin', false);  httprequest.setrequestheader("content-type", "application/xml"); 

not sure how add xml payload. have access tableau server(my-server) , everything. appreciated!

thank you!

you getting closer, need use send method send xml: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-us/docs/web/api/xmlhttprequest/send

just make sure xml encoded in javascript when you're inputting it. if using double quotes inside xml, make sure have single quotes declare string in javascript (e.g.) var data = '<credentials name="xxx" >';
