Sending JSON parameters.

Hi,
I'm doing an integration with a third party and I have to send the accid to the third party to get some information back. I got the result when I type the accid, but I what I really need to do is set up a params as variable not a literal.

Here is what I want to do:
This doesn't work.
Just for testing I'm setting up manually the accid but this value is going to be the accid on the opportunity. The values is going to different base on the opportunity.

string accid = "CtjSFlLYIls4-gAe";
string s = '{"jsonrpc": "2.0","id": 1,"method": "acct.phone.get","params": [accid]}';

I got an error: {"jsonrpc":"2.0","error":{"message":"invalid JSON in request body","code":-32700}}

It looks like I'm not using the right JSON format to set a parameter. 

But when I type the id on the params I got the information back.
string s = '{"jsonrpc": "2.0","id": 1,"method": "acct.phone.get","params": ["CtjSFlLYIls4-gAe"]}'; 

I hope someone can help me.
Thanks.

it should be simple. you have to use String concatenation. for example

String a = 'cd';
String f = 'b' + a + 'e'; //now f will have bcde

so for your case.

string accid = "CtjSFlLYIls4-gAe";
string s = '{"jsonrpc": "2.0","id": 1,"method": "acct.phone.get","params": [' + accid + ']}';

Hi Sumit, Sorry, I was on vacation. Here is what I did. HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest(); req.setEndpoint('here your url to connect to the third party'); //*HERE IS WHERE I SET UP THE USER AUTHENTICATION HEADER*// req.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json'); req.setHeader('Accept', 'application/json'); req.setMethod('POST'); String email = 'her you user name or email'; String password = 'here your password'; Blob headerValue = Blob.valueOf(email + ':' + password); String authorizationHeader = 'Basic ' + EncodingUtil.base64Encode(headerValue); req.setHeader('Authorization', authorizationHeader); //*HERE IS WHERE I SET UP THE USER AUTHENTICATION HEADER*// string s = '{"jsonrpc": "2.0","id": 1,"method": "here your method name","params": ["CtjSFlLYIls4-gAe"]}'; req.setbody(s); Http httpLocal = new Http(); HTTPResponse resLocal = httpLocal.send(req); String BodyLocal = resLocal.getBody(); The BodyLocal will return the result from json rpc I hope this helps.

Hi Ricardo,

Thank you for your reply. We have a different issue. We are trying to do JSON RPC over TCP.
