Kong path parameter always null

Lately I've been working on Kong (free version), I tried to create a service with the Admin API as follow:

http POST :8081/services name=some_api path='/some_path' host=$host url=$url

The service is created but the path parameter seems to always end up null in the created object.

Did I miss something while creating the service or did the synthax changed ?

If anyone has an idea, It would be lovely !

Thanks for your time

Solution

  • You are using the url parameter:

    Shorthand attribute to set protocol, host, port and path at once. This attribute is write-only (the Admin API never returns the URL).

    You are overwriting your path parameter with this one.

    You should use protocol, host, port, path or just url
