Data API returning 404 but log shows request OK

MongoDB Atlas
,
#1

I’m trying to use the data api to write to a timeseries collection.

First I’m just trying to test it using postman.

I’ve copied the URL endpoint from Atlas
https://data.mongodb-api.com/app/data-gtvwb/endpoint/data/beta

And here’s the curl of my postman request

curl --location --request POST 'https://data.mongodb-api.com/app/data-gtvwb/endpoint/data/beta' \

--header 'api-key: 623162099d97dbf78443a478' \

--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \

--data-raw '{

      "dataSource": "Beta",

      "database": "Spot_Chair",

      "collection": "Timeseries",

      "document": {

        "tstamp": { "$date": { "$numberLong": "1638551310749" } }

      }

  }'

I’m directly copy pasting the URL and the API-Key from the interface so I’m not really sure what’s going wrong here.

What’s even stranger is that the Data API log shows my requests with an OK status

I tried with the generated python code and got a bit further but the response is still that document is not a valid parameter

Invalid parameter(s) specified: document

import requests
import json
url = "https://data.mongodb-api.com/app/data-gtvwb/endpoint/data/beta/action/findOne"

payload = json.dumps({
    "collection": "TimeSeries",
    "database": "Spot_Chair",
    "dataSource": "Beta",
    "projection": {
        "_id": 1
    },
    "document" : {
        "tstamp" :  { "$date": { "$numberLong": "1638551310749" } },
        "device" : "FFFFF", 
        "data" : "-999", 
        "batt" : "-99"
    }
})
headers = {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Access-Control-Request-Headers': '*'
}

response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload)

print(response.text)

Hi Anton - I would suggest not pasting your API key in our forums.

My guess here is the problem with your URLs. Your first request snippet doesn’t have an /insertOne at the end of the URL and the second paste is doing a findOne but that endpoint doesn’t take the ‘document’ value https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/api/data-api-resources/
