What is wrong with this xml format ?

SerbanC · Oct 7, 2019

I have a python script that loads a pdf converts it to base 64 and puts it into an xml and makes a POST Request to a link.

With my XML formatting I get 400 code Bad Request.

This is my XML, is it something wrong ? Am I missing something ?

xml = """<header xmlns=\"mfp:anaf:dgti:spv:reqUploadFisier:v1\"
xmlns:xsi=\"

http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\">

<upload fisier=\"" +"""+b64+"""+ "\"/></header>"""

The three quotes mean multi line in Python

Thanks in advance

Hi

That does not really look like syntactically valid XML. Better double check those triple quotes :

Code:

b64 [teal]=[/teal] [i][green]'U2VyYmFuQw=='[/green][/i]

xml [teal]=[/teal][i][green] """<header xmlns=\"mfp:anaf:dgti:spv:reqUploadFisier:v1\"[/green][/i]
[i][green]xmlns:xsi=\"[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\">[/URL][/green][/i]
[i][green]<upload fisier=\"" +"""[/green][/i][teal]+[/teal]b64[teal]+[/teal][i][green]"""+ "\"/>\[/green][/i]
[i][green]</header>"""[/green][/i]

[b]print[/b] xml

Code:

[blue]bash-5.0$[/blue] python SerbanC.py
<header xmlns="mfp:anaf:dgti:spv:reqUploadFisier:v1"
xmlns:xsi="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">[/URL]
<upload fisier="[COLOR=red yellow]" +[/color]U2VyYmFuQw==[COLOR=red yellow]+ "[/color]"/></header>

So far this looks more like a question for forum278.
