Can't deserialize response body from batch request as the json properties are single quoted

[drhar]

Describe the bug

I'm trying to list applications filtered by particular IDs - there's loads of them so I'm using a batch request with 15 filters at a time (limit). This will allow me to get all the object IDs to query owners etc.

When I attempt to deserialize the BatchResponseContent object with get_response_by_id(response_id, ApplicationCollectionResponse), I get a stack telling me that it can't decode as the properties are single quoted rather than double quoted.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/<project>/.venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/msgraph_core/requests/batch_response_content.py", line 126, in response_body
    parse_node = ParseNodeFactoryRegistry().get_root_parse_node(
  File "/<project>/.venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/kiota_abstractions/serialization/parse_node_factory_registry.py", line 41, in get_root_parse_node
    return factory.get_root_parse_node(vendor_specific_content_type, content)

  File "/<project>/.venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/kiota_serialization_json/json_parse_node_factory.py", line 37, in get_root_parse_node
    content_dict = json.loads(content_as_str)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/json/__init__.py", line 346, in loads
    return _default_decoder.decode(s)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/json/decoder.py", line 337, in decode
    obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end())
  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/json/decoder.py", line 353, in raw_decode
    obj, end = self.scan_once(s, idx)
json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes: line 1 column 2 (char 1)

This is backed up by if I just try to do a json_loads(response.body.decode('utf-8')), which then succeeds if I do a .replace("'", '"').

Expected behavior

I should be able to provide the ApplicationCollectionResponse object to BatchResponseContent.get_response_by_id and deserialize the batch response so that I can get the ID out of the response.

How to reproduce

    for app_filter in app_filters:
        app_query_params = (
            ApplicationsRequestBuilder.ApplicationsRequestBuilderGetQueryParameters(
                select=["appId", "id", "serviceManagementReference"],
                filter=f"appId in {app_filter}",
            )
        )
        app_request_config = RequestConfiguration(query_parameters=app_query_params)
        
        batch_request_content.add_request_information(
            client.applications.to_get_request_information(
                request_configuration=app_request_config
            ),
            app_filter,
        )
 
    batch_response = await client.batch.post(batch_request_content)

    if not batch_response or not batch_response.responses:
        log.error("Batch request for application object IDs failed")
        return None

    for response_id in batch_response.responses.keys():
        batch_response.get_response_by_id(response_id, ApplicationCollectionResponse)

Hi @shemogumbe , do you guys have timelines for when you think this will get fixed? Or if there are any workarounds available?

[GeorgeOG]

If anyone needs a workaround:

def fix_responses(responses: BatchResponseContentCollection):
    for response_content in responses.get_responses():
        for _, response in response_content.responses.items():
            response.body = json.dumps(ast.literal_eval(response.body.decode("utf-8"))).encode("utf-8")

@shemogumbe I've got a PR here microsoft/kiota-python#473 to fix this issue.
