Need clarification on V3 Password Authentication using XML Interface

Asked by Harika Vakadi

While trying to generate an auth token using V3 Keystone API, I was able to do using JSON Interface, but I am unable do the same request using XMl Interface.

Example using JSON Interface:

curl -i http://IP:35357/v3/auth/tokens -X POST -H "User-Agent: python-keystoneclient" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "X-Auth-Token: <token>" -d'{"auth": {"identity": {"methods": ["password"],"password": {"user": {"id": "475ebc2782434f479d413d1792cbf8c1","password": "v3-token"}}}}}'

HTTP/1.1 201 Created

{"error": {"message": "Expecting to find p in identity. The server could not comply with the request since it is either malformed or otherwise incorrect. The client is assumed to be in error.", "code": 401, "title": "Not Authorized"}}

I believe that the problem is a raised with the XMl Post Body at "methods" sub element

Can anyone correct me if I am wrong, ASAP.

Thanks in advance,
Harika

Hi Hrika, I consider the XML format you are using may not be valid, here is the format I'm using and I can get the token responsed:

 curl -i -X POST -H "X-Autplication/xml" http://9.119.148.18:35357/v3/auth/tokens -d '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><auth><identity><methods><method>password</method></methods><password><user password="xxxxxx" name="admin"><domain id="default" name="default"/></user></password></identity></auth>'
