Error description
DataPower response failed when validated. It will fail at the 'Serial Number' and 'EntitlementNumber' fields. If quotations are placed around the numbers to make them a string, the response becomes valid. Example: { "_links": { "self": { "href": "/mgmt/actionqueue/default/pending/Export" } }, "status": "completed", "result": { "LoadConfiguration": { "SystemSettings": { "name": "System-Settings", "mAdminState": "enabled", "UserSummary": "user", "ProductOID": "1.2.3.4.5.6.78910.2.3", "Description": "IBM DataPower Gateway", "SerialNumber": 0000000, <<< "EntitlementNumber": 0000000, <<< "ProductID": "5725 [Rev None]", "SystemName": "systemname", "Services": x, "BackupMode": "secure", "ProductMode": "normal", "CustomUIFile": "local:///login..", "AuditReserve": 40, "Locale": "en", "SystemLogFixedFormat": "off" } } } }
Local fix
Two possible workarounds: 1. Simply add the quotations around the numbers to make them a string. 2. Use a GET to uri /mgmt/config/default/SystemSettings as opposed to an export of the config. This is an easier query (one part) and will produce valid JSON.
Problem summary
In some specific Rest Management Interface responses an object might display a number with leading 0's which is an invalid JSON number.
