Http POST 500 (Internal Server Error)

Hello All,

I am new to ionic. I was doing Matt’s weekly tutorial, ‘Using APIs with $http Part 1’.

I get the following error when I tried to POST into shettsu’s API. GET methods work. But, since its a server side error, I am finding it difficult to debug the code. Any insights on the error or even pointers to debugging tools would also help.

POST https://sheetsu.com/apis/v1.0/9d79fb258d0b 500 (Internal Server Error)

I found a few post on similar issues but couldn’t find a proper solution.

My Service looks like this. Exactly the same as http://docs.usecreator.com/docs/using-apis-with-http-part-1

angular.module('app.services', [])

.factory('BlankFactory', [function(){

}])

.service('Survey', ['$http', function($http){

    var api_url = 'https://sheetsu.com/apis/v1.0/9d79fb258d0b';
    var currentID = 1;

    var ret = {
        all: function(){
            
            return $http.get(api_url).then(function(resp){
                console.log(resp)
                if (resp.data.length > 0) currentID = parseInt(resp.data[resp.data.length-1].id);
                return resp.data;
            });
            
        }, 
        add: function(data){
            currentID++;
            data.id = currentID;
            
            return $http.post(api_url, data).then(function(resp){
                return resp.data;
            }

            );

        }
    }
    
    ret.all();
    
    return ret;

}]);

Survey Page which makes the http call

// The following is the constructor function for this page's controller. See https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/controller
// You can include any angular dependencies as parameters for this function
// TIP: Access Route Parameters for your page via $stateParams.parameterName
function ($scope, $stateParams, Survey,$ionicPopup) {

    //Survey.all();
    $scope.data = {
        name:'',
        favourite_colour:'Orange',
        favourite_pizza:'Pepperoni'
    }
    
    $scope.submitting = false;
    
    $scope.submit = function(){
        $scope.submitting = true;
        Survey.add($scope.data).then(function(){
            $scope.data = {
                name: '',
                favorite_color: 'Orange',
                favorite_pizza: 'Pepperoni'
            }
            $scope.submitting = false;
            
            $ionicPopup.alert({
                title: 'Thank you!',
                template: 'Your response has been recorded.'
            });
            
        })
    }
    
}

I’m having the same issue… Any way to fix this?

This error is regarding your server not your code. Please contact https://sheetsu.com if you are still getting this error.

Just make sure your excel parameters are right. I had a typo on favourite_color
