In the end of the lesson I get the error from Heroku
java.io.FileNotFoundException: https://taskie-rw.herokuapp.com/api/register
Hey there!
Are you sure youāre using POST and not GET? I just tested the request, and everything is working fine!
I found the problem. I missed a quote in the end and incorrect data causes HTTP 400 that interpreted as FileNotFoundException for some reason. Donāt know why but now it works for me.
The service doesnāt work for me either, I even tried it for postman. I get error 400, and when I debug I get FileNotFoundException
Hey @ricindigus!
Have you checked that your JSON string is valid? Weāve had issues where people missed a quote at the end, or didnāt format something correctly!
Also, make sure that youāre using POST for register, instead of GET. I just tested out the API using Postman, and it seems to be working fine.
So url should be: āhttps://taskie-rw.herokuapp.com/api/registerā and the JSON should look like this (if you use an online formatter):
{
"name":"username",
"email":"email@email.com",
"password":"password"
}
Thanks!

@ricindigus Please post your comment in English. Thank you!
Hi! I have a problem with the registration of an user, i got āInvalid data!ā every time. I even tried to run your code from Final folder and I get the same errorā¦ so i donāt think itās an internal problem :-?
Hey @moonlime!
Have you tried using different data for the user? Given that Iāve used the data in the video, it wonāt make sense to reuse that data because such a user is already registered. But if you try to use different data, you should be fine. Try changing the email to something unique and it should work fine!
I used your code, not your credentialsā¦ tried different combinations of users/emails/passwordsā¦nothing works
I just tested the API using Postman and everything works.
Have you set the appropriate flags on the HTTP connection: ādoInputā & ādoOutputā to true?
Did you check your JSON structure & formatting to be correct/as in the tutorial? All the escaped String literals, all the colons and commas?
This should be your JSON structure:
{
"name":"pilips",
"email":"example@mail.com",
"password":"password"
}
Edit: Iāll check everything with the project too, but last time I checked this it worked fine.
Edit 2: I just downloaded the final project of E4, and everything worked for me. Created an account without a problem.
Iāve created a new device and run it again but on API 30, so i guess that was the problem:-? Thank you for your time tho

is the Base_url still valid? Currently doing the tutorial but it doesnāt seem to be āliveā anymore as I get āInvalid Dataā when trying to register in the app and when I go to the link i get:
Cannot GET /api/register
Hey @swiftlearnerlv !
The app is still running. You should be using POST for registering if Iām not mistaken, as per other comments above! Also - the reason you might receive invalid data is because your JSON is not formatted correctly, so please check that too.
As for the emails not being valid etc, thatās because the email is already registered and you canāt register with the same email twice. You should use your email or a dummy email from a temp account to register to the app.
Thanks!

Hello, community,
Iām getting the same error. I already updated to SDK 30, checked all the JSON format, used a completely personal email, and even cloned the same repo and used the FINAL folder, however, Iām getting INVALID DATA.
I debugged the app and get this:
It says the response is NULL because of the URL.
Looks like the server is down.
Please, what solution can we get? I paid for this course but is useless if I can not use the endpoints your using on the tutorials.
Waiting a kindly reply
