REST API - Requirement Test Coverage

I am trying to connect testcases to requirements, using the post API: https://api.inflectra.com/spira/services/v6_0/RestServiceOperation.aspx?uri=projects%2f%7bproject_id%7d%2frequirements%2ftest-steps&method=POST

The call itself is succesfull but  test coverage / requirement coverage in spiraplan remain empty. 

 

Using the association Post API can link them but this is not used in test coverage: https://api.inflectra.com/spira/services/v6_0/RestServiceOperation.aspx?uri=projects%2f%7bproject_id%7d%2fassociations&method=POST

Is there some issue with the API call or perhaps a prerequisite im missing? The API calls are done from c# using HttpClient.

I think you are using the wrong endpoint. You are using the Requirement -> Test Steps one, not test cases.

Please use this one:

Thanks for the help, I made a ticket and got the answer.

It seems the postasjsonasync method of the httpclient in c# sets the content-type to "text/html", which caused the issue. After making sure the content-type is set to "application/json" it works.
