How to POST multiple observations through REST in OpenMRS

Question

When I am sending a single observation then it is getting created but for multiple observations it is throwing an error 500.

For single observations my query is -

TYPE- POST
URI - /openmrs-standalone/ws/rest/v1/obs
BODY-
{ 
"concept" : "5086AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA",
"person" : "610b0696-7529-4b4a-b65b-37336a75962a",
"obsDatetime": "2017-07-24T15:33:49+05:30",
"encounter": "3bc0672d-ebc6-4e65-aae1-8a1d4de759bf",
"value" : "90"
}

For multiple I am sending
TYPE- POST
URI - /openmrs-standalone/ws/rest/v1/obs
BODY-
[{"concept" : "5089AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ",
"person" : "610b0696-7529-4b4a-b65b-37336a75962a",
"obsDatetime": "2017-07-24T15:33:49+05:30",
"encounter": "3bc0672d-ebc6-4e65-aae1-8a1d4de759bf",
"value" : "99"
},
{
"concept" : "5090AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA",
"person" : "610b0696-7529-4b4a-b65b-37336a75962a",
"obsDatetime": "2017-07-24T15:33:49+05:30",
"encounter": "3bc0672d-ebc6-4e65-aae1-8a1d4de759bf",
"value" : "185"
}]

Answer 1

I found out that to add observation array, it needs to be packaged inside encounter and the request should to openMRS should contain Headers of Authorizaiton:Basic = UTF8Format(Username:password) and Set-Cookie = JSESSIONID=${sessionId}

The message format should be

{"patient": "${uuid}",
 "encounterType" : "67a71486-1a54-468f-ac3e-7091a9a79584", 
 "location":"${locationUUID}",
 "form":"a000cb34-9ec1-4344-a1c8-f692232f6edd",
 "visit":"${encVisitUUID}",
 "obs":[{"concept" : "5242AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ",
"person" : "${uuid}",
"encounter": "3bc0672d-ebc6-4e65-aae1-8a1d4de759bf",
"value" : "${RR}"
},
{"concept" : "5085AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ",
"person" : "${uuid}",
"encounter": "3bc0672d-ebc6-4e65-aae1-8a1d4de759bf",
"value" : "${sysBP}"
},
{"concept" : "5086AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ",
"person" : "${uuid}",
"encounter": "3bc0672d-ebc6-4e65-aae1-8a1d4de759bf",
"value" : "${diaBP}"
},

{"concept" : "5087AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ",
"person" : "${uuid}",
"encounter": "3bc0672d-ebc6-4e65-aae1-8a1d4de759bf",
"value" : "${Pulse}"
},
{"concept" : "5088AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ",
"person" : "${uuid}",
"encounter": "3bc0672d-ebc6-4e65-aae1-8a1d4de759bf",
"value" : "${T}"
},
{"concept" : "5092AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ",
"person" : "${uuid}",
"encounter": "3bc0672d-ebc6-4e65-aae1-8a1d4de759bf",
"value" : "${BO}"
}]

}
