What actually happens is, we are able to launch a new window from SAIL UI, but before the filenet page loads, there is an popup error saying the below.

One of required parameters was not passed.List of missed parameters: reference-number

It looks to me like a problem with the body you're posting - what format is that supposed to be in? Should it be HTML-encoded?

Hi Philb,
The body has few parameters to be passed and what you see in attachment is the paramnames and the respective paramvalues.
For example, paramame 'viewer_mode' has paramvalue 'vertical'
It does not have to be html encoded.But, does it require any specific format here.

The format required in your call of httppost will be defined by the service itself. I suggest you replicate the call you're making with httppost in SOAPUI or an equivalent external tool to make sure your format is correct. Alternatively, remove the extract() function that is wrapping the httppost call and check what result you're receiving.

Hi Philb,
Tried removing extract() function and checked on appian rule interface. The preview could not be displayed but below response is shown in interface.
