Magento – Getting full image url for products via REST API

http-requestmagento-1.9magento-enterprisemagento2rest

After accessing the Rest API (http://192.168.1.180/magento/index.php/rest/V1/products/SKU) to get the product details, the response is something like this:

{ "attribute_code": "image", "value": "/6/4/64275-152378-large.jpg" }, { "attribute_code": "small_image", "value": "/6/4/64275-152378-large.jpg" }, { "attribute_code": "thumbnail", "value": "/6/4/64275-152378-large.jpg" }

What should be the base url/prefix for the jpg in the attribute_code keys ?

In Magento 2x the product image urls are all relative. It's possible some extension or usage of CDN could change the base path. You can call the the V1/store/StoreConfigs api and use the baseMediaUrl value to get the full path.

Magento – Rest API – Post method to magento/api/rest/products returns 404

Possible duplicate of: REST API returns 404 [closed], unfortunately OP didn't accept answer so a close vote could not be initiated, answer below:

The reason for the 404 error message is likely a missing configuration in the apache2.con File (/etc/apache2/apache2.conf).

To enable rewrites it is necessary to add the option 'AllowOverride All'

 <Directory /var/www/html/magento/>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Require all granted
 </Directory>

Be careful with the directory path in the Tag 'Directory'. The path must match the location of your Magento installation on the file system. After changing the configuration restart the Apache server.

Magento 2 – Filtering Data in REST API

It is better to use search API (rest/V1/search), is faster because based on index tables, and then load full information about products returned from search using product repository (rest/V1/products).

You would have a list of product IDs returned by search API and in filter can be used when creating search criteria for rest/V1/products, this will make URL shorter. However, request URL for Search API would still be long.

There is no way to reduce URL length except for introducing alternative POST or PUT endpoing in your module (VendorName/ModuleName/etc/webapi.xml). Then you should be able to specify filters in request body.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<routes xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:module:Magento_Webapi:etc/webapi.xsd">
    <route url="/V1/searchProducts" method="POST">
        <service class="Magento\Catalog\Api\ProductRepositoryInterface" method="getList"/>
        <resources>
            <resource ref="anonymous" />
        </resources>
    </route>
</routes>
