RAML of the above asset is as below with reource name "/songs-list":

     #%RAML 1.0
     title: testhyphen
     /songs-list:
        post:
          body:
            application/json:
          responses:
            200:
              body:
                application/json:
                  example: {"messgae": "Success"}

If the resource name does not contain "-" (hyphen), eg when resource is - "/songs", then the API notebook runs as expected. API Notebook success

API.createClient('client', '9c2861a1-b**b-401e-****-1ec*****b20c', 'testset', '1.0.1');

$0=Client has been successfully created

client.songs.post[{"msg":"succ"}];

Answer 1

You can use this format to run it successfully:

clients['songs-list'].post[{"msg":"succ"}];

Without that format, it sees the hyphen as a subtraction operator. Since APINotebook runs on JavaScript, and supports any JavaScript syntax, you can look up how to do things in JavaScript and they should work with APINotebook.
