It sounds like you're probably using a new Dropbox account, so the Dropbox Paper functionality is only available in the Dropbox filesystem, and not via the legacy Paper API endpoints. You can find more information here:

I am digging into Instagram APIs and find out a URL https://i.instagram.com/api/v1 which used by many git repos(some are recently updated) but when I go to Instagram there is no such url available there. Can anyone guide me what is the use of this url and how I can use it because when I hit
https://i.instagram.com/api/v1/accounts/login/
by POSTMAN i got below message
{
"message": "Your version of Instagram is out of date. Please upgrade your app to log in to Instagram.",
"status": "fail",
"error_type": "needs_upgrade"
}
One more thing. I am with my friend who work in android he has done reverse engineering on a app which use for increase followers and that app is also using same endpoints and working on that app.
It's November 2021, and somehow the API https://i.instagram.com/api/v1 still works, but I believe they have changed the way you use it.
NOTE: The given information is just for educational purposes
Let's take the user/{user_id}/info endpoint of this API, which returns basic information about the user_id.
The URL with this endpoint would be
https://i.instagram.com/api/v1/users/176702683/info/
If you paste this link into your browser you'll get the following message
{"message":"useragent mismatch","status":"fail"}
This means that API must be called via mobile user-agent. read more about user-agent here
We can solve this problem by providing a mobile user-agent string.
Using python requests library
!pip install requests
import requests
URL = https://i.instagram.com/api/v1/users/176702683/info/
headers = {'User-Agent':'Instagram 76.0.0.15.395 Android (24/7.0; 640dpi; 1440x2560; samsung; SM-G930F; herolte; samsungexynos8890; en_US; 138226743)'}
# samsung mobile user-agent
response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
print(response.json())
Output:
{
"user": {
"username": "marcelotwelve",
"pk": 176702683,
"profile_pic_url": "https://instagram.fzrh3-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t51.2885-19/233796637_544571223333074_8761964745157634211_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s150x150\\u0026_nc_ht=instagram.fzrh3-1.fna.fbcdn.net\\u0026_nc_cat=1\\u0026_nc_ohc=Cfk2kHCxgbIAX_vgNjn\\u0026edm=AEF8tYYBAAAA\\u0026ccb=7-5\\u0026oh=00_AT-tuXbAbsIkvmJqm_akQS__UPDtEXZxZChx2lO-9Wb0FQ\\u0026oe=62A8115E\\u0026_nc_sid=a9513d"
},
"status": "ok"
}
NOTE: Please be aware of how you use it
It is actually an API, that you can only use from your phone application, thats why it say it needs upgrade. you can download an addon for chrome / firefox to switch user agents, and after that you will be able to see the content.
It's worth checking there is lots of info about any user on insa
this response is a default error caused by having no cookie set
inspect instagram, you can see a redirect first (this way they fill initial cookies set for you). copy paste it to postman and try again
Yesterday I started a new app on Facebook. Today I got the message that when people copy the link to Twitter they get an error. This is what you get:
{
"error": {
"message": "Unknown path components: /your_namespace:your_action",
"type": "OAuthException",
"code": 2500
}
}
What does this mean? What could be the problem?
Are you actually sending the POST action link to Twitter? Why?
I think you misunderstood how Open Graph works. Basically, you should be the one publishing actions when users take an action using your service. You can use a server-side or a client-side language to POST request (when you click a link, your browser actually makes a GET request, not a POST) to https://graph.facebook.com/me/namespace:action?access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN&OBJECT_PATH=OBJECT_URL
Note that you need to create an app, use it to authenticate users to get the access token and also set your custom actions / objects. These will need to be approved before you can actually use them.
You should start by taking a look at the sample apps to see how they work: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/samples/
I am writing an app for iOS using dropbox Api.
My app has the following features,
1. User must be able to log in to his dropbox account, create document and upload.
2. He must be able to view his folder and file contents.
3. User must have the provision to share the documents with others.
I have completed the first 2 tasks, but finding it difficult to share the documents. I have referred dropbox developers forum but didn't get any solution.
Can anybody please tell me how do I do this?
Thanks in advance.
You can make a call to:
NSString *path = #"/yourfile.jpg";
[[self restClient] loadSharableLinkForFile:path];
Then you set up the delegate methods:
- (void)restClient:(DBRestClient*)restClient loadedSharableLink:(NSString*)link forFile:(NSString*)path
{
NSLog(#"link is %#", link);
}
- (void)restClient:(DBRestClient*)restClient loadSharableLinkFailedWithError:(NSError*)error
{
NSLog("%#", [error localizedDescription]);
}
You can find all the calls you need by looking inside the framework at DBRestClient.h.
Good luck!
The Dropbox API provides the /shares call ( https://www.dropbox.com/developers/reference/api#shares ) to allow you to create read-only shareable links ( https://www.dropbox.com/help/167 ) to any file or folder in the user's Dropbox. This call is available via the loadSharableLinkForFile: function in DBRestClient.m in the official Dropbox iOS SDK. (The Dropbox API does not currently offer any calls for read/write shared folders.)
I have a facebook account I KNOW has articles posted to the open graph as read actions under the news.reads global namespace (I can see them under the News aggregation in my timeline) but when I try to get a list of them using this api address:
https://graph.facebook.com/me/news.reads?access_token=[my access token]
it returns:
{
"data": [
],
"paging": {
"next": "https://graph.facebook.com/me/news.reads?access_token=[my access token]&offset=25&limit=25"
}
}
as though there were no articles posted at all. I checked my permissions and cant find anything that might be causing this issue. Anyone know how I should be accessing this data correctly? Thanks!
You need the user_actions.news Permission in order to access the user's list of news reads, otherwise the array comes back empty
Wondering if anybody has had any problems using the facebook graph api to get checkins.
https://graph.facebook.com/me/checkins?access_token=2227470867|2.SOgfV3_Dc6iX_IzJctERXA__.3600.1292436000-666790342|UPcbXaafo7G5rd2I_7d9_LpeZFo
returns
{
"data": [
]
}
and any other ids insted of "me" return the same.
Anyone have any ideas?
Turns out you can't access the fb places api outside the US
Allright fellows,
after some tries I can shed a light to this topic, here comes the description of the solution.
You can make such requests only by authorized apps.
I implemented the flow on Android and works like a charm,
here is an example call grabbed from logs:
https://graph.facebook.com/me/checkins?format=json&sdk=android&access_token=<access_token>
important note: access token MUST have been retrieved by your application, which has permissions for
"user_checkins", "friends_checkins"
getting access token is straight forward flow, explained well in all SDKs (p.s. I'm using Facebook-AndroidSDK)
