Answer from AI
The error about an unsupported message format usually occurs when the server or system expects a message in a specific format (e.g., JSON, XML, protobuf), but receives a different one.
To fix the error, you should:
- Check the request headers, especially
Content-Type, and ensure it matches the message body format. - Convert the request body to the expected format.
- If using an API, check the documentation for format requirements.
For example, if the server expects JSON and you send XML, you need to change the body to JSON and set the header:
Content-Type: application/json
Thus, adjusting the body format and request headers will resolve the issue.
