Getting 404 error when accessing SmartObject Odata endpoint

Having trouble accessing your newly created OData endpoint?

This guide addresses the 404 error you might encounter when trying to reach a new SmartObject exposed as an OData endpoint after setting it up through K2 Management.

Steps:

1. Create the OData endpoint:

   • Go to K2 Management and navigate to Integration > APIs > SmartObject Odata.
   • Add a new SmartObject and configure it as an OData endpoint.
   • Apply the changes.

2. Access the endpoint:

   • Try reaching the endpoint using the following URL format: https://[KUIDorVanityValue].onk2.com/api/odatav4/v4/cars (Replace [KUIDorVanityValue] with your actual K2 Cloud URL or vanity value).  You may experience an HTTP 404 error.

3. Resolve the 404 error:

   • If you encounter a 404 error, it might be necessary to refresh the endpoint.
   • Use this URL to refresh the endpoint: https://[KUIDorVanityValue].onk2.com/api/odatav4/op/refresh
   • Once refreshed, you should be able to access your new OData endpoint using the original URL.

Note: Replace [KUIDorVanityValue] with your specific K2 Cloud URL or vanity value in both endpoint URLs.
