AutoTools Json read error with new NWS api

So I'm trying to use Json Read to pull in data from the new NWS api. I put in the url (https://api.weather.gov/points/34.3899,-103.0325/forecast for example) in the Json field and I set the root variable to %json. If I authenticate the url the correct data shows (the same as if you go to that url in a browser). However when I run the task I get an error with that last two lines saying:

Error: 338929390
java.io.FileNotFoundException: https://api.weather.gov/points/34.3899,-103.0325/forecast

Also if I try a simple HTTP Get I do not get the data as I expect. I get the following:

{
"correlationId": "6ecec35a-fee3-44e8-8c4e-82e211a6d4d5",
"title": "Unexpected Problem",
"type": "https://api.weather.gov/problems/UnexpectedProblem",
"status": 500,
"detail": "An unexpected problem has occurred.",
"instance": "https://api.weather.gov/requests/6ecec35a-fee3-44e8-8c4e-82e211a6d4d5"
}


So, I'm obviously not getting something right. I have a feeling it has something to do with the nws api, as I can get Json Read to work with the Wunderground api just fine. If it helps any, the nws api info can be found here: https://forecast-v3.weather.gov/documentation?redirect=legacy

Thanks in advance.

 

Thanks for the reply. At least now I know I'm not crazy.

 

Did you find out why you're getting the 500 response? I'm getting the same thing. Hit the URL from the browser and it returns the json fine. Try to do it through an apache httpget and I get 500. If I use the same java code and only change the url to api.darksky.net I get the Json response OK. I noticed api.weather.gov does some kind of redirect on some api calls. The URL changes when hitting it from a browser. Of course the calls that don't redirect I still can't get anything but a 500 error. Anyone have any ideas?

 

Headers were missing...

Need to have these two:

HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet(url);
httpget.setHeader("User-Agent", "<whatever you want>");
httpget.setHeader("Accept", "application/vnd.noaa.dwml+xml;version=1");
