11/14/2020, 12:07 PMHey, Anyone has experience using the REST API as i am facing a problem which i couldn't debug. When i am using POST, PUT, PATCH api requests. the request body is not being received by the endpoint. in the execution log i can only see an empty file for the request body data. Those User events are actually triggered as i have modified the record.

},
) Copy code
{
"type": "<https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.4.1>",
"title": "Bad Request",
"status": 400,
"o:errorDetails": [
{
"detail": "Invalid SuiteQL request. Provide a valid SuiteQL query in the request body parameter q.",
"o:errorPath": "q",
"o:errorCode": "INVALID_VALUE"
}
]

11/15/2020, 8:08 AMAfter testing the request as @battk suggests i found that httpx is not sending the payload for some reason i couldn't figure. i switched to using Python Requests Library and it worked perfectly. Thanks a lot of your help guys.
