I am currently trying to implement the paypal api to get the details of an order, but it shows me the following error:
Uncaught PayPalHttp\HttpException: {"error":"invalid_client","error_description":"Client Authentication failed"} in vendor/paypal/paypalhttp/lib/PayPalHttp/HttpClient.php on line 215
I am using the data that paypal gives me of the client id and the secret that is checked in: https://developer.paypal.com/developer/applications/ following the official documentation, after i set up my server to make calls to PayPal, im currently following this guide: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/checkout/reference/server-integration/get-transaction/
I've been trying to find the solution for two days without much success, do you know why paypal marks this error?
As a note, I am still in sandbox (the client and the secret are from the sandbox too) and I am using the default application created by paypal, does it have something to do with it?
It appears the request for an access token is failing, but we cannot comment specifically without seeing a full request+response log added to your question's details.
Ensure you are connecting to api(-m).sandbox.paypal.com with HTTP basic authentication ("Authentication: Basic ..." header) that has a base64 encoded clientid:secret of a Sandbox REST API app, and that the POST data is grant_type=client_credentials

Unable to retrieve ANY data when I try to fetch simple content from Archer via REST API calls through Postman or Mule.
1. Is URL below correct? What am I missing?
2. How to get Reports via Archer REST API i.e what API resource to use.
Have seen the Archer REST documentation but do not find it clear enough.
Have tried GET & POST, with Authorization configured, through Postman:
https://hostname/platformapi/core/security/login https://hostname/platformapi/core/content/123
https://hostname/RsaArcher/platformapi/core/content/123
I get 'Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.' error although I am told to have access.
Please suggest proper API call/path to be used and if any specific settings is to be made to retrieve data?
Archer version: 6.5
Note: Through POSTMAN and Mule, I have successfully consumed REST API from other secured applications. Struggling with Archer.
Thank you.
The documentation for Archer REST API was mentioned in a previous answer and seems to require a login into their site: https://stackoverflow.com/a/38511131/721855
This KB article shows examples on how to use the API from Powershell: https://community.rsa.com/docs/DOC-45643. It should be easy to adapt to Postman, Mule or whatever other language/tools.
I recently had the same issue. The company had anonymous authentication disabled on the api directory. The user account running postman must have access to the api directory. If you are still getting a 401, see if you anonymous access can be enabled to rule out other non-access related issues. If you are able to generate a security token when calling core/security/login when anonymous authentication is enabled, then you know the issue is that your account did not have access to the api directory. If you are not able to make the request successfully with anonymous authentication enabled, then you know the issue is likely with the way you've structured your REST call. Hope this helps!
Authentication to any Archer API is two step process. First you have to call an authentication resource or method. That will return a session token. You must then add that token to the request headers for subsequent requests. Your header would look something like this:
Authorization: Archer session-id=439C730FF83F68EFDC017ED705D9908E
Without this header, you'll get a 401 for any request other than an authentication request.
I am playing around with IBM Cloud Functions (OpenWhisk) and trying to setup authentication through OAuth with Facebook as the provider. I have setup an app with Facebook, I am able to successfully connect with this and fetch my token and I am able to verify this by fetching basic profile information (name and userID).
My problems starts when I enable OAuth in the IBM Cloud Functions API. I get a HTTP code 500 back from the call with very little information about what actually went wrong.
{"code":500, "message":"Oops. Something went wrong. Check your URI and try again."}
The only thing that is stated in the dashboard is:
You can control access to your API through the OAuth 2.0 standard. First require an end user to log in via IBM Cloud App ID, Facebook, GitHub, or Google. Then include the corresponding OAuth token in the Authorization header of each API request. The authenticity of the token will be validated with the specified token provider. If the token is invalid, the request will be rejected and response code 401 will be returned.
With this information I got that I need pass the token with the Authorization header. My best guess is that the call fails somewhere when the token is being validated.
I am using Vue and Vue-axios to perform the API call. My current call looks like this:
this.$http.get(API_URL+"?user_id="+localStorage.user_id,{headers :{'authorization':localStorage.token}}).then((response) => {
console.log(response);
});
I have tried adding bearer/Bearer or token/Token in front of the token (some posts I read indicated that you should do this), but this had no impact on the response.
If I disable the OAuth authentication from the Cloud Functions side, the code above works and correctly retrieves the data (with or without the header option).
From the Chrome Dev tools it looks to me like the token is added correctly to the request, since the request headers have the Authorization header with the token.
I am not that familiar with OAuth or IBM Cloud Functions, so the problem might have a very easy fix. However, I am unable to find documentation which clearly shows me how I am supposed set this up. I am also unable to find any logs or more information about what actually fails here. Am I missing something obvious here?

TL;DR : I am getting a "12600: Authorisation Denied (12600)" error and can't find what that means in Netbanx/Paysafe's documentation.
Background:
I am using the Netbanx credit card services.
The request is built server-side to obtain a url, which is then embedded in an iframe on the application for clients to pay.
It works like a charm in test mode; the iframe displays Netbanx' form, the client enters their info, clicks "Pay", and the payment is authorized. So far so good.
Now, I've moved to live mode. Configurations (account numbers, API key and API secret) are all valid and used on other projects. The payment request is still correctly built, I obtain a url from Netbanx and it correctly displays the payment form. I enter valid credit card information, click pay, and then, boom: failure page, with error 12600: Authorization denied. I cannot find any info related to that error code. Has this occured to anyone? What does this code mean? Any details would be appreciated!
Thanks!
I believe the issue here relates to Paysafe test API credentials being used on the production environment. These credentials do not translate from test > production as a separate set would need to be used for security reasons.
If you believe that you are ready to go live, you can login to the BackOffice "https://login.test.netbanx.com/" and click the "Go Live" button to start the process!
I'm working on an iOS application and what I'd like to do is have the app ping one universal Gmail account to check for the most recent email.
I went through the guide from Google at https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/quickstart/ios?ver=swift, but the result did not work. After some googling, it appears that some functionality may have been changed, but they haven't updated their documentation yet.
Is there a way to send credentials via https to Gmail and get email messages back? I have an OAuth key via the Gmail API manager, but when I pass it as "access_token", the response says "Login Required".
AFAIK, an error response "Login Required" can be encountered if you try to list the buckets for a project that do not provide an authorization header.
If we check Users.messages: get, it's noted that it requires authorization.
For this, you may want to check Authorizing Your App with Gmail wherein you will find these basic authorization pattern:
During development, register the application in the Google API Console.
When the app launches, request that the user grant access to data in their Google account.
If the user consents, your application requests and receives credentials to access the Gmail API.
Refresh the credentials (if necessary).
Furthermore, if your application needs to access Google APIs on behalf of the user, you should use server-side flow. Please see Implementing Server-Side Authorization for more information.
Sometime back I was involved in writing a sample application to access email from gmail but using C++ on windows. The code is at https://github.com/Panchatcharam/simple_gmail_api. I was able to successfully get emails.
Trying to get login with PayPal into prestashop, all seem to be done corectly accorting to installation guide but getting this error:
Relying Party Validation error: redirect_uri provided in the request
does not match with the registered redirect_uri. Please check the
request.
What is the problem?
There are two modes for any application on Paypal developers website (i.e. Live and Sandbox mode), please confirm that you are using the same API data that you have configured.
Yes, taking all data from live mode of the app.
