Fixed in #399

Thank you for your report. It sounds like an issue with the backend. In the meantime, your issue is with the dateHappened field, you need to pass a recent timestamp to be able to submit events.

@therve I can post to the https://api.datadoghq.com/api/v1/events endpoint without issue though.

WIth specifying dateHappened: 1, in your payload?

FWIW I tried your example and it fails with event too far in the past , the issue is that the error doesn't have the proper content type so it's not parsed properly by the client. But your payload is still invalid, even if we should give a better error.

I'm on version 1.0.0-beta.6 of @datadog/datadog-api-client and I'm also receiving the same error: Error: The mediaType text/plain is not supported by ObjectSerializer.parse.. I'm getting it when I'm trying to push metrics. I'm using the typescript example from https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/metrics/#submit-metrics

Node-version: v16.13.0
OS: Manjaro Linux

@therve Surprisingly yes. The returned event has the current date on it.

const body = {
	aggregationKey: 'aggregationKey_example',
	alertType: 'info',
	dateHappened: 1,
	deviceName: 'deviceName_example',
	host: 'host_example',
	priority: 'normal',
	relatedEventId: 1,
	sourceTypeName: 'sourceTypeName_example',
	tags: ['environment:test'],
	text: 'Oh boy!',
	title: 'Testing event post',
};
const { data } = await axios.post('https://api.datadoghq.com/api/v1/events', body, {
	headers: {
		contentType: 'application/json',
		'DD-API-KEY': process.env.DD_API_KEY,
	},
});

The response:

{
  status: 'ok',
  event: {
    id: 6269305086122181000,
    id_str: '6269305086122180270',
    title: 'Testing event post',
    text: 'Oh boy!',
    date_happened: 1637942568,
    handle: null,
    priority: 'normal',
    related_event_id: null,
    tags: [ 'environment:test' ],
    url: 'https://app.datadoghq.com/event/event?id=6269305086122180270'
  }
}

I understand the issue now though, thank you. In my project I was using Date.now() to set the dateHappened property. I didn't notice that the field is supposed to be seconds since the epoch and Date.now() is milliseconds since the epoch. By passing seconds I was able to post an event. I should have posted my project code.

I think the error message could be greatly improved. In my case it was a missing environment variable. One of (DD_SITE="datadoghq.eu" DD_API_KEY="" DD_APP_KEY="") was not set.
