Create Domain via Rest

[t.mehner]

I am trying to create a Domain via Rest. Under Rest v1 it is said, that one hase to create a multipartrequest to solve this problem.
Well, i am not perfectly sure how to do this. 

I am so far:

http://ata:80/jasperserver-pro/rest_v2/resources/organizations/MyDomains?createFolders=false&q=MyDomain&type=semanticLayerDataSource
But how can i add the schema.xml?
My sourcedescription is the following:

{

    "schema": {

        "schemaFile": {

            "type": "xml",

            "label": "MyDomain_schema"

        }

    },

    "dataSource": {

        "dataSourceReference": {

            "uri": "/organizations/MyDataSources/jdbsDataSource"

        }

    },

    "label": "MyDomain"

}.

How can i construct a falid multipartrequest? An example would be the best. Thank you

It took me _forever_ to figure this out. I abandoned all hope with the v1 REST route when none of the examples I found worked, including one sent to me by Jaspersoft support. Then on to v2! The docs are sorely lacking. This was the magic sauce to get it to finally work:

 

Important points:

 

- Use POST /rest_v2/resources/path/to/domain

- Request content type "multipart/form-data"

- "resource" content type "application/repository.semanticLayerDataSource+json" (assuming json)

- "resource" sent as content instead of file

- "resource" uses "schemaFile" property

 

Hopefully I can save someone else the untold hours I wasted!
