nlapiRequestURL Response getBody() includes headers, a bug?
I am using nlapiRequestURL to call a remote site requiring basic authorization like this:
headers['Authorization'] = 'Basic YWRtaW46MTIzNA=='; var myresponse = nlapiRequestURL("http://www.myremoteserver.com", null, headers);
Authentication seems to have worked, I can get the results from the remote server. However, I found myresponse.getBody() return the following:
Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46MTIzNA== User-Agent: NetSuite/2012.1 (SuiteScript) Host: www.myremoteserver.com Body Text from myremoteserver
It appears to me, it's prepending request headers to the response body. Without authentication, by commenting out // headers['Authorization'] = 'Basic YWRtaW46MTIzNA=='; line, getBody() returns only - expected behavior
Body Text from myremoteserver
