Release 2.1.7 issues with HTTP POST

🛎️ Get Help

I updated to 2.1.7.118 recently and noticed that a few Rule Machine 4.0 rules with HTTP POST actions don't seem to be running correctly. The changelog for 2.1.7 mentions HTTP POST fixes, but maybe the fix needs fixing? I reverted back to 2.1.6.118 and the command below works again.

Behavior 2.1.6.118:
HTTP POST
Type: json
URL: http://internal_ip:5555/jsonrpc/
Body: '{"method": "rate", "params": [1000]}'

The above command successfully tells NZBGet to set download speed to 1000 kbps.

Behavior on 2.1.7.118: The above command fails to change download speed on NZBGet.

On a side note, Kudos to the Hubitat team for making reverting to previous firmware easy!

It still seems to be working for me, atlhough I only read RSS feeds for the same program.

I put the entire message in the URL box (Enter URL to send request to), and nothing in the second box entitled "Enter body for POST"

2.1.7

Thanks for your post. I thought I'd messed up the syntax of one of my rules which stopped working yesterday (no values are passed), but it appears to be a change of behaviour in 2.1.7.118.

works in 2.1.6.112, but not in 2.1.7.118. I've retreated for the moment.

Aha!
That's why my post commands aren't working!

How do I fall back to a previous version?

(never mind. I figured out how to do it...)

@bravenel: Can we get a hotfix for this issue?

Will look into it.
