    <p>I need to integrate Kii MbaaS services in one of my web application apart from the Mobile apps. I was using the Android SDK and was able to connect it. However for website using Java solution they don't have any SDK and asked me to do th operation using REST. Now I was planning to use ApacheHttpClient from a Servlet to connect to the REST services. The REST format from their docs is given below. In ApacheHttpClient I know I can pass the headers(-H) as HttpGet.addHeader("content-type", "application/json"). However I am not sure how to pass the data (-d). Can anyone help me here by pointing to any tutorial link or any sample code on how to pass data to a REST service along with headers?</p> <p>The REST syntax is given below-</p> <pre><code>curl -v -X POST \ -H "content-type:application/json" \ -H "x-kii-appid:{APP_ID}" \ -H "x-kii-appkey:{APP_KEY}" \ "https://api.kii.com/api/oauth2/token" \ -d '{"username":"user_123456", "password":"123ABC"}' </code></pre> <p>Thanks in advance.</p> <p>------------------------- Edit-------------------------------------------------- here is a sample java code I wrote to connect to using Apache HttpClient 4.3 library however I keep getting error as 400... can anyone pls advice?</p> <p>error - </p> <blockquote> <p>Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed : HTTP error code : 400 at com.app.test.RestClientTest.main(RestClientTest.java:49)</p> </blockquote> <pre><code>package com.app.test; import java.io.BufferedReader; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.InputStreamReader; import java.net.MalformedURLException; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; import org.apache.http.Consts; import org.apache.http.NameValuePair; import org.apache.http.client.entity.UrlEncodedFormEntity; import org.apache.http.client.methods.CloseableHttpResponse; import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpPost; import org.apache.http.impl.client.CloseableHttpClient; import org.apache.http.impl.client.HttpClients; import org.apache.http.message.BasicNameValuePair; public class RestClientTest { /** * @param args */ public static void main(String[] args) { CloseableHttpClient httpClient = null; HttpPost httpost = null; CloseableHttpResponse response = null; try { httpClient = HttpClients.createDefault(); httpost = new HttpPost("https://api.kii.com/api/oauth2/token"); httpost.addHeader("content-type", "application/json"); httpost.addHeader("x-kii-appid", "xxxxx"); httpost.addHeader("x-kii-appkey", "xxxxxxxx"); List&lt;NameValuePair&gt; nvps = new ArrayList&lt;NameValuePair&gt;(); nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("username", "xxxxx")); nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("password", "xxxxx")); // StringEntity input = new // StringEntity("{\"qty\":100,\"name\":\"iPad 4\"}"); // input.setContentType("application/json"); httpost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nvps, Consts.UTF_8)); response = httpClient.execute(httpost); if (response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode() != 200) { throw new RuntimeException("Failed : HTTP error code : " + response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode()); } BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader( (response.getEntity().getContent()))); String output; System.out.println("Output from Server .... \n"); while ((output = br.readLine()) != null) { System.out.println(output); } } catch (MalformedURLException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } finally { try{ response.close(); httpClient.close(); }catch(Exception ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); } } } } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
