I experience an issue with the Here Batch Geocoder Api.

I have tried with different input data and input parameters with not success so far.

I send a request with action run, like:

http://batch.geocoder.cit.api.here.com/6.2/jobs?action=run&app_code={app_code_value}&app_id={app_id_valeu}&outdelim=|&outcols=displayLatitude,displayLongitude,locationLabel&outputcombined=false&indelim=|

The request data is:

recId|searchText|country
0001|Invalidenstraße 116 10115 Berlin|DEU
0002|Am Kronberger Hang 8 65824 Schwalbach|DEU
0003|425 W Randolph St Chicago IL 60606|USA
0004|One Main Street Cambridge MA 02142|USA
0005|200 S Mathilda Ave Sunnyvale CA 94086|USA

The Request Headers: Content-Type:text/plain

The response is with status "accepted" which is fine but after I check the status with

https://batch.geocoder.api.here.com/6.2/jobs/{id}/?action=status&app_id={app_id_value}&app_code={app_code_Value}

The returned status is always failed.

  • You need to add real value to URL for items inside curly brackets. {id} {app_id_value} {app_code_Value} – jdweng Dec 21 '18 at 10:16
  • Before I post the question I have removed the actual values and replace them with the {id} {app_id_value} {app_code_Value}. – Emil Nikolov Dec 21 '18 at 10:47
  • If you put URL manually into a browser does it work? I want to make sure the id is valid. – jdweng Dec 21 '18 at 10:53
  • The first request is post but the second with the status is a get request. I have tested it in the browser directly, with javascript as well as with c# but the result was the same. – Emil Nikolov Dec 21 '18 at 11:40

  • You can try to re-run the job - see also here: https://developer.here.com/documentation/batch-geocoder/topics/job-status.html#job-status Another possibility to debug this a bit furhter would be to have a look for the error. The parameter is here described: https://developer.here.com/documentation/batch-geocoder/topics/endpoints.html –  Dec 21 '18 at 13:50
  • According to the documentation if I use: `jobs/{REQUEST_ID}?action=run&params=...` I should be able to rerun the failed request. What should I put for the value of "params"? – Emil Nikolov Dec 21 '18 at 14:03

id you url-encode the pipe symbol in 'indelim' and 'outdelim', e.g. "indelim=%7C" ?
