Dear all,
I want to use the API for metabolite id conversion but it does not seem to be working, even with the example provided here
I used the curl command
curl -X POST \
https://rest.xialab.ca/api/mapcompounds \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
-d '{
"queryList": "1,3-Diaminopropane;2-Ketobutyric acid;2-Hydroxybutyric acid;",
"inputType": "name"
}'
with either https://rest.xialab.ca/api/mapcompounds and https://www.xialab.ca/api/mapcompounds but in both cases I have this error :

<b>Have you tried our example data to see if the issue still exists?</b><br/>
Most of the time, the issue is related to improper data format. Although we try to give informative
error messages, there are always exceptions. Here are three tips:
<ol>
<li>
Open your file in a text editor (not a spreadsheet program) to see the details - are these values comma separated (.csv) or tab separated (.txt)?
</li>
<li>
You may need to search "How to save my file as a .csv format" to get more detailed instructions;
</li>
<li>
Several example datasets are provided in the upload page, please choose the one that matches your data type to see if the issue still appears. Download and open
the data in a text editor for details.
