Hi khadija F‌,

did you check the GeoEvent Logfiles to see what exaclty is failing?

Often the error connecting to a https site is due missing certificates. Did you import the certificate of the target server into the ArcGIS Server, that was installed with GeoEvent Server? Don't Forget to also import the root and intermediate certificate if they exist.

Hi khadija F‌,

It looks like the GeoEvent Server does not have access to the integrate.om.mixtelematics.com at all.

Straight away I just think of simple points to check:

• Does the server has Internet connection? (Firewall etc even if port 443 should be open by Default)
• Did you try to access the website via browser from the server?
• You could also try to access it via CURL in the command line of the server:

curl -X GET --header 'Accept: application/json' --header 'x-testing: true' --header 'X-Forwarded-CorrelationId: MiX.Integrate.SwaggerUI' 'https://integrate.om.mixtelematics.com/api/assets/1'‍‍

Best,

Stefan

Hi Khadija, 

I've just developed a connector for one client to poll data from MixTelematix API, constantly fetching vehicle locations. 

In my case, as there are some rules to check location etc. so I didn't use the out-of-box connector to request the API. 

Two suggestion I would give here: 

1. Get a valid token for API

In my case, I used code to generate bearer token first and use this token in the header for subsequent requests rather than you using credential details in the header.  

I would agree with Stefan using another approach to test your way to communicate with api first. I was using Postman to ensure the parameters provides are correct.

2. Import certificate into GEP 

Otherwise, you would get some error in logs like...  invalid certificate..PKIX.

You seem didn't arrive at this stage yet.

Minbin Jiang,

I tried the first option with Postman but it shows no access or invalid token received .

would you please share with me how do you developed  , I will be highly appreciated .

FYI...

With the above steps you should able to get token for your subsequent requests.
