Ambari

AMBARI-9016 Ambari API uses HTTP Header Content-Type:text/plain when the content is JSON

Scenario:

Ambari REST API is expecting "Content-Type" HTTP header set to "text/plain" even though content is in JSON format. If client specified the same header with the value of "application/json", Ambari threw HTTP 500 error.

Previous Behavior:Ambari behaviour was misleading forcing the user to use "text/plain" Content-Type header in HTTP clients.

New Behavior:

Ambari expects "application/json" Content-Type header.

Expected Customer Action:Revise any custom code which uses the Ambari REST API and take actions if needed
