Question

Can anyone please help with rest api of ejabberd's set preference

following is the request body

{
      "user": "venkat",
      "host": "localhost",
      "resource": "tka1",
      "type": "available",
      "show": "away",
      "status": "",
      "priority": "0"
}

when I am trying to hit api i am getting response as "internal_error".

IN logs, I could see below statement

REST API Error: set_presence([{<<"user">>,<<"venkat">>}, {<<"host">>,<<"localhost">>}, {<<"resource">>,<<"tka1">>}, {<<"type">>,<<"available">>}, {<<"show">>,<<"away">>}, {<<"status">>,<<>>},{<<"priority">>,<<"0">>}])

Using ejabberd 20.07 version

That API is used to set presence of an existing XMPP session.

In your experiment, is the account venkat@localhost logged in the server with resource "tka1"?
