I am encountering an issue with myAPI script where I am receiving the following response:

```
{ "statusCode": 400, "headers": {}, "body": "{\"message\":\"API call is not allowed(unsupported container).\"}"}
```

I am unsure about the meaning of the error message. Can anyone please explain it to me?

Here is the relevant code snippets. It is a POST or GET to a graphQL api:

```
main function snippet let productObj = exportObjDefinition_test(options,connection_id);try { invokeExportResponse = exports.runVirtual({export:productObj}); console.log(JSON.stringify(invokeExportResponse)); response.statusCode = 200; } catch(e) { console.log("be") invokeExportResponse = JSON.stringify(e); response.statusCode = 400; }
```

```
function exportObjDefinition_test(options,connectionId) { let orderId = options.orderId; let orderNumber = options.orderNumber; return { "_connectionId": "${connectionId}", "http": { //"method": "POST", "method": "GET", "body": `{"query":"query {\n languageList {\n totalCount\n edges {\n node\n }\n }\n}","variables":{}}`, "formType": "http", "response": { "resourcePath": "data" } }, "rawData": "removed", "adaptorType": "HTTPExport"}}
```

I also tried using formType: graph\_ql, which also did not work. And also used an existing flowstep export and getting the export definition object \> body via the Celigo REST (Postman), which gave me the same error.

Can anyone help me solve this issue? Thank you.

Hi @nuriensing ,   
We have checked your request. If you make API request via Postman on "v1/:\_myApiId/request", it will not return any error. In case of preview on UI, you might receive this error. We have logged a bug for this issue, will fix it soon.  
  
Thank you
