How to Create a cURL Command

If you are asked to create a cURL command to help troubleshoot, please follow the steps below.

If the request you are using has a functionName header use this command pattern:

curl -v -H "functionVersion: 2" -H "functionName: FUNCTION_NAME” -d @body.json -H "Content-Type: application/json" -v -u USERNAME:PASSWORD -X POST -k https://[PENELOPE_URL]/external/import/gateway

You will need to replace the following words with values that apply for your request:

  • FUNCTION_NAME will be provided to you by your Tailored Services representative

  • body.json is the name of the file you created with the data being processed by this function

  • USERNAME is the name of your External Administrator user with access to this function

  • PASSWORD is the password for your External Administrator with access to this function

    • please note that you can’t use the colon symbol “:” in the password

  • PENELOPE_URL is your agency’s Penelope URL

If you are downloading, then your cURL command would look like this:

curl -v -H "functionVersion: 2" -H "functionName: webgateway” -d @body.json -H "Content-Type: application/json" -v -u USERNAME:PASSWORD -X POST -k https://[PENELOPE_URL]/external/import/gateway

  • body.json is the name of the file you created with the data being processed by this function

  • USERNAME is the name of your External Administrator user with access to this function

  • PASSWORD is the password for your External Administrator with access to this function

    • please note that you can’t use the colon symbol “:” in the password

  • PENELOPE_URL is your agency’s Penelope URL

Otherwise, use this pattern:

curl -v -d @body.json -H "Content-Type: application/json" -v -u USERNAME:PASSWORD -X POST -k https://[PENELOPE_URL]/external/import/gateway

You will need to replace the following words with values that apply for your request:

  • body.json is the name of the file you created with the data being processed by this function

  • USERNAME is the name of your External Administrator user with access to this function

  • PASSWORD is the password for your External Administrator with access to this function
