Hi All, I am doing API testing through postman by giving GET and POST requests i am getting the responses by connecting to HOST. But through Devtest i am getting  java.net.UnknownHostException: cb.test.dev.telstra.com while trying to get response through Devtest by submitting POST request

 

Step 1: I have generated access tokens through GET call by conencting through the HOST

Step 2: Even after giving token name as Authorization key and value. I am not able to connect to the HOST through Devtest

Correct Answer

Hi,

 

This is not an issue with security tokens but rather a DNS issue. The system where the recorder is running cannot resolve this hostname cb.test.dev.telstra.com to an actual IP address. As mentioned this needs to be resolved on DNS level.

 

Work-arounds could be:

- use the actual IP address instead of the host name when setting up the recorder

- add cb.test.dev.telstra.com and its IP address to the hosts file on the system that will run the recorder

 

Cheers,

Danny
