Starting PCUI Appl Service Contrac as url passing parameters

Question

Hi all.
I'm trying to launch PCUI Application Service Contract as an url passing some parameters but i'm getting an strange behavior, the screen is appearing empty then get a dump when try to go to the result list. I'm looking forward to pass the service contract number and get the detail or at least the result list displaying it.
My url is something like this:
http://MUAHAHA:8010/sap/bc/bsp/sap/crm_bsp_frame/entrypoint.do?sap-client=XXX&appl=CRMD_BUS2000112&CHG_ONLY=X&STANDALONE=X&crm_local_urls=true&sap-syscmd=nocookie&BORKEY=45340065DADE009A000000000A34030A&BORTYPE=BUS2000112&blview=ZMUAHAHAH
Is there something wrong ?
Thanks
Armando.

Hi trent,
I too have had issues with this API , so moved forward with UTL_HTTP API.
There is something amiss.
If you change your code to the one below it works.
SET SERVEROUT ON
declare
l_c CLOB;
l_param varchar2(1000) ;
begin
l_param := 'select * from upcoming.events where location=''San Francisco'' '||
        ' and search_text=''dance'''||'&'||'format=json';
l_c := apex_web_service.make_rest_request(
    p_url => 'http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q='||
        utl_url.escape(l_param)
    ,p_http_method => 'POST'
  dbms_output.put_line(substr(l_c, 1, 4000));
end;
/Note the use of UTL_URL.ESCAPE. The call does not work without it.
I do not use a proxy, so that parameter does not feature in my snippet above.
Cheers,
PS: However, the below does not work. So, it appears that the p_parm_name and p_parm_value do not quite work.
SET SERVEROUT ON;
declare
l_c CLOB;
l_param varchar2(1000) ;
begin
l_param := 'select * from upcoming.events where location=''San Francisco'' and search_text=''dance''';
l_c := apex_web_service.make_rest_request(
    p_url => 'http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql'
    ,p_http_method => 'POST'
    ,p_parm_name => apex_util.string_to_table('q:format')
    ,p_parm_value => apex_util.string_to_table(utl_url.escape(l_param)||':json')
  dbms_output.put_line(substr(l_c, 1, 4000));
end;
