January 21, 20188 yr I just noticed that submissions to the HWBOT via the API are now breaking because the API seems to have changed. In the past, the server responds with JSON. Now it responds with XML. Why did this change? And why wasn't there a notification to all the benchmark maintainers that depend on the API. ----- Unrelated note, the version whitelisting seems to be broken. I'm no longer able to specify multiple versions to whitelist. It's either no filtering, or one version only.
January 21, 20188 yr Crew Hi, I anwered this partially at support thread. You might have noticed massman left and richbastard now is general manager and we upgrade revision, it might help if you contact him with pm although I created a ticket internally
January 22, 20188 yr Author Thanks. I am aware of Massman's departure and the new revision. But I thought the revision was mainly points-related and not have anything to do with the submission APIs. While I *can* switch y-cruncher's HWBOT submitter to handle the new XML response, it will take time. And I figured that this could be breaking more than just y-cruncher.
January 22, 20188 yr Author I found a way to mark json as primary media type, so json is returned instead of xml if you don't specify accept headers. I'm pushing the change to prod tomorrow morning. Thanks! I was going to say that I currently don't set the accept header. (I actually have no idea what that even is.) I'll figure out how to do it later for a future release. But it should start working again once the server-side change rolls out.
