PATCH method for REST connectors
Hello,
We are using Pega 7.3.1 and we need to call a REST API using the PATCH method. Unfortunately, the method PATCH is not supported for REST Connectors in Pega.
The API that we need to call is Microsoft Partner Center REST API : https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/partnercenter/mt667943.aspx
Especially, the scenario "Change the quantity" requires using the PATCH method : https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/partnercenter/mt614218.aspx
We tried to use the method PUT instead, but Microsoft API won't accept it and we MUST connect using PATCH method.
This is a blocking issue for one of our major projects that relies on Pega.
Please provide an enhancement to allow the PATCH method for REST Connectors asap.
Best regards,
Vincent.

you can pass this header in the call ‘ X-HTTP-Method-Override’ setting it to PATCH, and do a POST call with the appropriate patch body.The server side will be able to recognize it as a PATCH call and do the needful.

I have also tried with the X-HTTP-Method-Override set to PATCH in the Header on the POST method on the Connector however it still gets treated as a POST? Is it the case then that the override gets ignored when went via Pega?

Hi TommieB3,
I fixed the issue by creating a custom java function in our project . I used the "CloseableHttpClient" object which supports the httppatch method .
