Most remote web service allow their APIs to be accessed from server on a different origin (domain) than their own by enabling Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS). You can read more about CORS here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS
However if this is not the case for the web service your application is using, you can use the SDK http proxy. The proxy ships with your Deskpro installation, meaning it is hosted on the same domain as your Deskpro installation.
The http proxy supports GET, POST, PUT, DELETE requests:
GET
// obtain a reference to the API Client from the Application Clientconst { restApi } =this.props.dpapp;// issue a GET requestrestApi.fetchProxy(`https://us16.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/search-members?query=joe@example.com`, { method:'GET', headers: {'Accept':'application/json','X-Proxy-SignWith':'basic_auth anystring:{{apiKey}}' } }).then(({body, headers}) => {console.log('response: ', body, headers) });
DELETE
// obtain a reference to the API Client from the Application Clientconst { restApi } =this.props.dpapp;// issue a DELETE request restApi.fetchProxy( `https://us16.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists/57afe96172/members/20dbbf20d91106a9377bb671ba83f381`,
{ method:'DELETE', headers: {'Accept': 'application/json','X-Proxy-SignWith': 'basic_auth anystring:{{apiKey}}' } }).then(({body, headers}) => {console.log('response: ', body, headers) });
for POST and PUT requests you need to specify the Content-Length header:
POST
// obtain a reference to the API Client from the Application Clientconst { restApi } =this.props.dpapp;// create the request bodyconstbody= { globalId:'ticket-44', relationship:'linked with', object: { url:'http://localhost/agent/#app.tickets,inbox:agent,t.o:44', title:'DeskPRO #44', summary:'My linked ticket' } };// issue a POST request restApi.fetchProxy(`http://localhost:8090/jira/rest/api/latest/issue/TST-1/remotelink`, { method:'POST', headers: {'Content-Type':'application/json','Accept':'application/json','Content-Length':JSON.stringify(body).length }, body:JSON.stringify(body) }).then(({body, headers}) => {console.log('response: ', body, headers)});
PUT
// obtain a reference to the API Client from the Application Clientconst { restApi } =this.props.dpapp;// create the request bodyconstbody= { globalId:'ticket-44', relationship:'linked with', object: { url:'http://localhost/agent/#app.tickets,inbox:agent,t.o:44', title:'DeskPRO #44', summary:'My linked ticket' } };// issue a PUT requestrestApi.fetchProxy(`http://localhost:8090/jira/rest/api/latest/issue/TST-1/remotelink/100`,{ method:'PUT', headers: {'Content-Type':'application/json','Accept':'application/json','Content-Length':JSON.stringify(body).length }, body:JSON.stringify(body)}).then(({body, headers}) => {console.log('response: ', body, headers)});
