We are using IBM tool chain with version 7.0.2.
We are trying to create baseline using POST method on GC streams with following details:

1. Method: POST
2. URL: https://<Server_name>/gc/api/createBaseline
3. Body:"@prefix oslc_config_ext:  <http://jazz.net/ns/config_ext#>
<https://<Server_name>/gc/api/createBaseline>
    oslc_config_ext:titleTemplate "{0} Example baseline (2023-05-31)" ;
    oslc_config_ext:rootConfiguration <https://<Server_name>/gc/configuration/12>" 
4.Content-Type:text/turtle

What authentication are you using?  All POSTs do require authentication with the server.

Have you confirmed that the user id you are passing in the POST has permission to create baselines in the project area you are executing against?

Yes that userid is having all configuration related permissions including creating baselines

You're missing a space and a dot (period) on the end of your prefix line - without that I get a 500 error. If you get a 403 error read the response content and add the header it tells you to.


@prefix oslc_config_ext:  <http://jazz.net/ns/config_ext#> .
<https://<Server_name>/gc/api/createBaseline>
    oslc_config_ext:titleTemplate "{0} Example baseline (2023-05-31)" ;
    oslc_config_ext:rootConfiguration <https://<Server_name>/gc/configuration/12>

With it I get the expected 200 response and the Location header in the response gives the tracker; the baseline is created. I have to change the titleTemplate to create another new baseline because it quite reasonably won't let you create a baseline with an already-existing title.

Not sure how you get a 400 error; perhaps basic auth isn't working.
