Assistance with API functionality

Assistance with API functionality

I now have a need to take advantage of the API functionality in SD+, but I have very little understanding of how this works.  I'm going to start small with basic functionality, but this discussion may eventually start evolving into greater detail regarding VB scripts, etc.

To begin, I'm simply trying to create a new request via the Address Bar in IE.  From what I undersand, I just need to supply the URL for the server, followed by the path to the RequestServlet, followed by the necessary attributes.  Below is a modified example of what I'm trying and not succeeding.

https://helpdesk.mycompany.com/servlets/RequestServlet/operation='AddRequest'/title='Test'/description='Test'/requester='requesterusername'/username='myusername'/password='mypassword'/DOMAIN_NAME='MYDOMAIN'/logonDomainName='AD_AUTH'



mycompany, requesterusername, myusername, mypassword, and MYDOMAIN name have been modified for ambiguity of course.

As a result of this URL being entered into Internet Explorer 7, my browser goes to the login screen (minus my customizations) and refreshes several times. Eventually I receive "error on page".

Please advise as to what I'm doing wrong with the URL above.  Once I have this resolved, I'm sure it will lead to additional questions. :)



Cheers!
