      Hi all,

       

      I'm in the process of integrating the Guvnor backend with our custom frontend and have run into a problem creating a new asset. The following call to the REST API successfully manages to create a BPMN2 asset:

       

      POST http://10.4.4.10:8080/drools-guvnor/rest/packages/defaultPackage/assets HTTP/1.1

      Content-Type: application/atom+xml

      Accept: application/atom+xml

      Authorization: Basic {Base64 encrypted credentials}

       

      <atom:entry xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">

      <atom:title>TestAsset</atom:title>

      <atom:summary>This is a test asset</atom:summary>

      <metadata>

      <format><value>bpmn2</value></format>

      </metadata>

      </atom:entry>

       

      However, the server fails to capture the username from the authorization credentials and instead returns a blank author field:

       

      HTTP/1.1 200 OK

      Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1

      Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=ujncnWuRCq5v-5mmnfWmBGda.undefined; Path=/drools-guvnor

      Content-Type: application/atom+xml

      Content-Length: 973

      </metadata>

      </atom:entry>

       

      Does anyone have an idea of where I'm going wrong, or perhaps a hint as to where I should start looking in the source code?

       

      Thank you,

      Shane
