RAML - error

#1

Hi,

I am new to RAML and was trying out simple example but getting error, can you please pointout where am I making mistake?

Error:
Could not find expected ‘:’

Below is the code:

#%RAML 0.8

First, you need to add a space between a key and a value. For example, between baseUri (key) and https://... (value). That seems to go on through your RAML.

Second, the value of a named parameter (eg formParameters) is a map, not a sequence. So the file form parameter contains a sequence (starting with -), but it needs to be a map, and therefore it can’t be two different types. Choose one.

Third, it seems that the parser rejects URI parameter with - in it. So just remove it.

That should be valid now:

Thanks a lot Christian_vogel that cleared some of my basics.
