A while back I shared a function that spits out a BAQ Report. It’s single parameter (though that shouldn’t be hard to tweak) and is meant to be called from within a session (you’d have to build a session, which also isn’t too bad). Either way, a function is much easier to manage from a REST call than calling the BO’s directly.

I assume that you don’t have the “fancy quotes” in your JSON as it shows here.

His text was correct, it just wasn’t in the code block thing. I fixed that for him.

I had to ask. The “Missing Root” element can happen when there are no quotes. :person_shrugging:

Hello Team,
what is the “fancy quotes”, can you please show it to me in the text I provides.

thanks a lot,

Notice how the quotes above are not the same. In our code however, there is only one kind of quote.

Word, this forum, and other programs will automatically use fancy quotes to make things look, well, fancy. This is why we ask people to put code in a code block. You can do this by entering three back-ticks in a row ``` on a line by itself:

If you are on hosted servers, it could be the “WorkstationID” failing this out.

When I built a function for printing some production labels, the workstation had to be set to “web_” + The current user’s ID.
