ExternalResourceClient Returning no response

Question

Hello All, 
 
 I am using ExternalResourceClient with GET method with Bearer token to replace curl coding. 
 URL and AuthKey are working on Postman. Also, POST Method on ExternalResourceClient is working well. 
 But GET method on ExternalResourceClient is returning 200-ok but with empty brackets, while server returns JSON response with message and status fields. 
 Please guide, 
 Prasad 
 
 $response = (new ExternalResourceClient())->get($url, ['Content-Type' => "application/json", 'Authorization' => 'Bearer ' . $dmsAuthKey ]);
var_dump($response->getBody()->getContents()); //returning {}

Hello All, 
 Code was missing "Accept:application/json" in header. So working code is 
 $response = (new ExternalResourceClient(60, 10))->get($url, ['Accept' => "application/json", 'Authorization' => 'Bearer ' . $token ]); 
 
 Thanks Rafael Fernandes for your assistance, 
 Prasad

Hey Prasad Behle , 
 You might be running into issues in your environment. 
 How about you try something very basic first (see the example below) and then once that works, you try your URL. 
 // ExternalResourceClient GET
try {
 // Set timeout to 60 seconds and 10 max redirects
 $response = (new ExternalResourceClient(60, 10))->get('https://httpbin.org/get');
} catch (RequestException $e) {
 $GLOBALS['log']->log('fatal', 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage());
 throw new \SugarApiExceptionError($e->getMessage());
}
$httpCode = $response->getStatusCode();
if ($httpCode >= 400) {
 $GLOBALS['log']->log("fatal", "Request failed with status: " . $httpCode);
 throw new \SugarApiException("Request failed with status: " . $httpCode, null, null, $httpCode);
}
echo $response->getBody()->getContents();
