HTTP Callout Problems in Pre-release

 
Share

I am running the same code in two different environments and I am getting different results. I have the following code hitting the REST API exposed on StackExchange:

Http httpQuestions = new Http();
HttpRequest requestQuestions = new HttpRequest();
requestQuestions.setEndpoint('http://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/users/605/questions?order=desc&sort=activity&site=salesforce');
requestQuestions.setMethod('GET');
requestQuestions.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
HTTPResponse responseQuestions = httpQuestions.send(requestQuestions);
System.debug('Get Questions: ' + responseQuestions.getBody());

Basically, what this should do is call out to the API and return all of the questions I have asked (my user Id is 605). When I run this code in Execute Anonymous in Winter '14, the request returns a 200 response and I get the following from the debug statement (ran it through JSONPrettyPrint for readability):

When I run that same exact code in Spring '14, I get a 403 error with the following from the debug statement:

In both scenarios, I have the Remote Site Details set up as:

Remote Site Details

The interesting thing about the Spring '14 scenario is that the HTML that gets returned from the 403 error indicates that http://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/users/605/questions? is the URL that is getting called. It appears to be dropping the URL query parameters when making the call out. Has anyone seen anything else like this? Is it possible I am missing something really simple? I haven't done a ton with callouts in Apex to be honest, so I am not sure if I am just doing something wrong or if I found a bug.

Possible Suggestion/Solution #1

You can't call out from a pre-release org, since the security rules are different from our production/developer environments.
