[SOLVED] Modify curl command to ansible uri module

Modify curl command to ansible uri module

I've been trying to execute the following curl command through the ansible uri module (the url, username, and password have been changed just for privacy)

curl -u "username:password" "https://company.abc.apps.company.eu/qps/rest/1.0/download/ca/downloadbinary/" --header "Content-Type: application/xml" --data-raw "<ServiceRequest><data><DownloadBinary><platform>LINUX_UBUNTU</platform><architecture>ARM_64</architecture></DownloadBinary></data></ServiceRequest>" -o file.deb

my current playbook task is:

- name: Download Binaries?
  ansible.builtin.uri:
    url: https://company.abc.apps.company.eu/qps/rest/1.0/download/ca/downloadbinary/
    url_username: username
    url_password: password
    force_basic_auth: true
    headers:
      Content-Type: application/xml
    body_format: raw 
    body: "<ServiceRequest><data><DownloadBinary><platform>LINUX_UBUNTU</platform><architecture>ARM_64</architecture></DownloadBinary></data></ServiceRequest>"
    dest: file.deb

The error message I am getting from the site is the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ServiceResponse xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="https://companty.abc.apps.company.eu/qps/xsd/1.0/ca/downloadbinary.xsd">
  <responseCode>OPERATION_NOT_SUPPORTED</responseCode>
  <responseErrorDetails>
    <errorMessage>Operation not supported for this object using this method.</errorMessage>
    <errorResolution>Refer to the QPS guide for authorized operation for this domain object.</errorResolution>
  </responseErrorDetails>
</ServiceResponse>

Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong here?

Thanks :D

Solution

If anyone was wondering, it is a POST method. So, I needed to add method: POST as part of the module.

- name: Download Binaries?
  ansible.builtin.uri:
    url: https://company.abc.apps.company.eu/qps/rest/1.0/download/ca/downloadbinary/
    url_username: username
    url_password: password
    method: POST
    force_basic_auth: true
    headers:
      Content-Type: application/xml
    body_format: raw 
    body: "<ServiceRequest><data><DownloadBinary><platform>LINUX_UBUNTU</platform><architecture>ARM_64</architecture></DownloadBinary></data></ServiceRequest>"
    dest: file.deb
