I'm developing an app which I plan on implementing Piwik Analytics into. Although there seems to be no real documentation (unless I'm blind) on how to use the Java Tracking API (this one), I think I managed to figure it out, but when I try it, I get this error
WARNING: Warning:400 Bad Request
org.piwik.PiwikException: error:400 Bad Request
at org.piwik.SimplePiwikTracker.sendRequest(SimplePiwikTracker.java:878)
at test.Main.main(Main.java:32)
Here is my code:
SimplePiwikTracker tracker = new SimplePiwikTracker("http://example.com/piwik/piwik.php");
tracker.setIdSite(2);
tracker.setPageUrl("http://example.com/javatest/test");
tracker.setPageCustomVariable("test", "10");
//This is line 32
tracker.sendRequest(tracker.getLinkTrackURL("http://example.com/piwik/piwik.php"));
I also tried this:
String datURL = tracker.getLinkTrackURL("http://example.com/piwik/piwik.php").toString();
URL url = new URL(datURL);
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
System.out.println(connection.getResponseCode());
connection.disconnect();
But this just prints out response code 404 which doesn't make any sense because if I paste the link generated by tracker.getLinkTrackURL into my browser it works perfectly and logs correctly in Piwik (I have debug mode on).
So my question is, why is Piwik returning a bad request and why can't Java find the URL (404) when it works perfectly fine in my browser?
