I am very new to using Flutter and have never properly used an API without help. I want to make my application free (without tons of ads) so I was hoping to create a Patreon to support it's upkeep. When looking for tutorial videos online or any examples of code to use for either Flutter or any other languages I know how to use, I came up empty handed. So I was posting this question here hoping that someone could help me link the Patreon API to Flutter. The documentation doesn't say it connects directly to Flutter, so you'll have to use another language to access the information (best bet is Javascript or Python on my opinion) and relay that too Flutter.
I (and possibly other people) would need a button created for OAuth login through Patreon (that works on both iOS and Android). When the user goes through the login, it needs to grab which tier they are supporting, their username, and when their subscription will renew (monthly or yearly?). This then needs to be translated to Text widgets (displaying the tier and/or username) and a "visible:" property for Visibility widgets (displaying certain content based on the user's monthly subscription and making the same content invisible or put behind a newly visible lock page when their subscription ends/expires).
Sorry I know this is a lot to anwser, but I'm not very experienced with APIs and Flutter. I will appreciate any anwser that helps because I really want to make my app without tons of advertisements and I'm hoping this question will help other Flutter developers with the same goal of supporting their development financial without tons of advertising effecting the user's experiences on the app.
Patreon API OAuth Documentation
https://docs.patreon.com/#oauth
Flutter JS (I think this may help connect with the Patreon API, but I'm not sure?)
https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_js
Examples of code and a step by step guide would be fantastic, but anything will help. Thank you again!
You want something like this:
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
static Future<http.Response> getResponse(String endpoint)
async {
print ("API REQUEST $endpoint");
http.Response response = await http.get(
Uri.parse('$BASE_URL$endpoint'),
headers: {
name:val,
name2:val
},
);
print ("API RESPONSE ${response.body}");
if (response.statusCode != 200) {
throw "Argh! Put error info here";
}
return response;
}

Dynamic links work great for 98% of our users. However, there are still a group of users which have difficulty with them or do not know how to use them.
I want to add a feature which would let users paste their link into the app, and then we extract the data from the link and handle it normally. This will also serve as a backup for when the links are down or misbehaving. It will also allow our customer service team to get data from a link when customers share them with us.
The problem is, there doesn't seem to be a way to manually pass in a dynamic link to retrieve the dynamic data.
Does anyone know how this can be achieved?
Here is my attempt at your question.
I am assuming what you mean by the dynamic data is the underlying deeplink along with the parameters associated with the deeplink.
void dynamicLinkToDeepLink(String dynamicLinkString) async {
final details = await FirebaseDynamicLinks.instance.getDynamicLink(Uri.parse(dynamicLinkString));
// your deep link can be accessed as follows
details!.link;
}
You have to safeguard the above code as you see fits when you use it. You will have to wrap FirebaseDynamicLinks.instance..... with a try catch block and you will also have to check if the value of the returned link is not null before acccessing details!.link
I'm running into trouble with test users and the Picker component in my web applicaton.
A subset of my test users are receiving a 400: The server cannot process the request because it is malformed when attempting to access the picker. Some of them experience a looping sign-in beforehand.
The picker is constructed in the following way inside of a useEffect in a React component:
// if there's a non-config related bug, I would imagine it must be related to getting the access token here.
const accessToken = gapi.auth2.getAuthInstance().currentUser.get().getAuthResponse().access_token;
const view = new picker.DocsView(picker.ViewId.DOCUMENTS);
view.setIncludeFolders(true);
const pickerDisplay = new picker.PickerBuilder()
.enableFeature(picker.Feature.MULTISELECT_ENABLED)
.setAppId(appId)
.addView(view)
.addView(new picker.DocsUploadView())
.setOAuthToken(accessToken)
.setDeveloperKey(apiKey)
.setCallback(pickerCallback)
.build();
setPicker(pickerDisplay); // sets picker state
Because I am not receiving the error message and the application has not been verified, I believe this likely has something to do with the IAM.
I believe I've been able to eliminate managed browsers settings,
cookie settings, and extensions as possible sources of error.
I've also added the users to the GCP project with the Browser role, though
they did not receive invites. What do I need to try next to resolve
this issue?
I cannot provide a minimum reproducible example because this only seems to be confined to a subset of my users' browsers.
I reached out to Google support, but unfortunately this is not covered.
I need to get this application into production relatively soon, so I'm very seriously considering just writing my own Drive microservice and recreating the Picker. I would love to avoid this though.
The Facebook SDK has the ability to record both custom events and standard events. The standard events are things like "Purchases" "Add to cart" "Completed Registration" etc...
Recording these standard events gives you access to specific bidding features on Facebook ads that you don't get without the events.
I have an app that has the React Native FBSDK
There are two methods for defining an event - one for purchases and one for everything else as seen here
There is zero documentation for standard events on react within the SDK on Github or on the event tracking docs on Facebook's developer platform.
Right now I'm trying to track the standard events by using their various names, as recorded across FB's documentation. I've tried the following:
AppEventsLogger.logEvent('FBSDKAppEventNameCompletedRegistration');
AppEventsLogger.logEvent('CompletedRegistration');
AppEventsLogger.logEvent('Completed Registration');
All of these just create custom events with those names, but aren't recognized as standard events.
Has anyone gotten standard events to work using the React Native wrapper for the FB SDK? If so how do you name the events to get FB to recognize them?
Update: As the comment below highlights, the more recent link is https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/app-event-api/
It looks like you'll have to pass the strings that those standard events get evaluated to, i.e. instead of 'FBSDKAppEventNameCompletedRegistration', you'll have to use: 'fb_mobile_complete_registration'.
Here's the source:
Sorry if this is a bit late. Hope this helps.
I managed to find the actual event name by generating standard event code using tool on Facebook's documentation, run the code in AppDelegate.m, and get the exact key-values from Events Manager. With this roundabout way, I realized the actual name of Add to Cart event was fb_mobile_add_to_cart. From there I googled for the name and found the list documented in Marketing API (why not App Events?).
I don't know if it is the right place, but you can refer to https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/app-event-api/ for actual standard event names and parameter names. At least it worked in my case. Here's my Add to Cart event code:
function logAddToCart(totalPrice, contentType, contentId, currency) {
const params = {
'fb_content_type': contentType,
'fb_content_id': contentId,
'fb_currency': currency
};
AppEventsLogger.logEvent('fb_mobile_add_to_cart', totalPrice, params);
}
I made a simple package with all events. Just import like
import FBEvents from "react-native-fbsdk-events";
// ...
AppEventsLogger(FBEvents.COMPLETE_REGISTRATITON, params);
I've been trying to get OAuth 2.0 to work correctly. I have managed to make the url that that will do the "deny/allow" for my app by opening a webpage with just
Application.OpenUrl(uri.ToString());
The problem is that I have no idea how to get the redirect and the auth token from the page if the user hits allow. When you hit allow, right now nothing happens it just sits on the page. Checking Networking in chrome debug does have the redirect and token there but it never actually sends it..
I was recommended to use RestSharp but I again have no idea how to use it with Unity as there are lot of resources for Android/iOS PC etc. but I can't get any of them to work for this Unity project...
var client = new RestClient("https://www.fitbit.com/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=*clientID*&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2FfitRPGcallback&scope=activity%20profile%20sleep%20social");
Debug.Log("client made");
var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);
request.Resource = ("profile%20sleep%20social");
client.ExecuteAsync(request, response => { Debug.Log("response is : " + response.Content);});
Application.OpenURL(client.BaseUrl.ToString());
In the URL I do have the correct clientID in there as well just not sure what I can and can't show for security reasons etc.
Biggest problem is just having no idea how to get the return value from the webpage after the user hits allow/deny...
Any insights would be super super appreciated cause I just want to start making the actual game but there's not as much point if I can't get this data...
So, I'm posting on a few other applicable questions as well since I have finally figured out my answer.
Unfortunately I'm not using REST so that part is still up in the air BUT I did get it to work with just Fitbit, Unity and a Webview plugin (you will need a webview OR a way to get the initial code back from your first OAuth2 call)
You can find steps here.

EDIT:
So I had to change how I did it because Fitbit changed their ToS where we are no longer allowed to use Webview based Authenticators (which is what I was using in the above blogpost.)
Give this next post a look for how to make an Android Plugin that will grab the Accesstoken from Fitbit's OAuth. This is a FREE way to do it since you make it yourself and it's ezmode :)

Hi Google Drive Staff,
I have tried to stream video files from Google Drive(Without Downloading). But I gets alerts that Sign In. I have went thoroughly with Dr. Edit sample App but i did not found any solution. I tried with downloadUrl , embedLink, webContentLink, alternateLink. All gives message to sign In. When i tried with exportsLinks i get a Null Message. What is the problem Here. If U have any suggestion Please Let me Know...
I have tried with Google Drive for iOS in iPod, there we can stream Video without Downloading.
Please suggest me to resolve this issue
Thanks in Advance...
I could solve it just by appending the access_token to the download url
audiofile.strPath=[NSString stringWithFormat#"%#&access_token=%#",downloadUrl,accessToken];
pass the strPath to your avplayer object to play music.
I did not try the video part. but i think a similar approach should work.
you can fetch the access token from the GTMOAuth2Authentication object
Note that you might need to refresh it if its expires.
Hope this helps you.
Regards
Nitesh
I think it depends what you mean by "stream". Last time I looked, the download links all had a content disposition: attachment header, which instructs the browser to download rather than render the content.
If you have your own client fetching the url, you can choose to ignore that header and do what you like with the content as it is fetched. imho, it would be nice if the client could add a parameter to the url to indicate to the Google servers that it wants the content to be rendered v. downloaded, but hey ho.
You need to authorize all requests to downloadLinks with an Authorization header. Read more about the authorization and learn how to retrieve your users an access token on https://developers.google.com/drive/about-auth
