How to send an XML file to API by javascript

Question

I am reporting to you today with a polite notification of me being directed, which I am kindly doing when trying to send an API request. Yes, I know, there is a right to provide information about JS / AJAX / JQuery on the net, although it usually concerns reading API, so it is available for one API function. Below is the code:

Of course, I changed the API key on purpose, so that's not a problem, the key itself is fine. ;)

 <script> UserAction () { var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest (); xhr.onreadystatechange = function () { if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) { // Common Action To Take When Document is ready: var answer = xhr.responseText; console.log ("ok" + response); } }; xhr.open ('POST', 'https: //api5.esv2.com/v2/Api/Subscribers/', true); xhr.send ("POST https://api5.esv2.com/v2/Api/Subscribers/ HTTP / 1.1 Content-Type: text / xml <ApiRequest xmlns: xsi = \\" http://www.w3.org/ 2001 / XMLSchema-instance \\ "xmlns: xs = \\" http: //www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema \\ "> <ApiKey> KEY </ApiKey> <xsi data: type = \\" Subscriber \\ "> < Mode> AddAndUpdate </Mode> <Force> true </Force> <ListId> 1 </ListId> <Email> jan.kowalski@domena.com </Email> <Firstname> Jan </Firstname> <Lastname> Kowalski < /Lastname><TrackingCode>123</TrackingCode><Vendor>xyz</Vendor><Ip>11.22.33.44</Ip><Properties><Property><Id>5</Id><Value xsi: type = \\ "xs: string \\"> student </Value> </Property> <Property> <Id> 3 </Id> <Value xsi: type = \\ "xs: dateTime \\"> 1985-03-12 </Value> </Property></Properties></Data> </ApiRequest> "); }

You need to set headers properly and use your XML only in send .

xhr.open ('POST', 'https://api5.esv2.com/v2/Api/Subscribers/', true);
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml");
xhr.send(XMLbody);

Depends on the situation (what kind of a response you are expecting) you may need to change this part too.

var answer = xhr.responseXML;
