Unable to call TFS 2017 REST APIs - rest

When I connect to my on prem TFS server version 15.117.27414.0 using the url
GET http://{instance}/{collection}/{project}, I get a 200 OK using Basic Authentication with Base64 of PAT.
However, when I make an API call on this url say GET http://{instance}/{collection}/{project}/_apis/serviceendpoint/endpoints?api-version=3.2, I get a 404 error.
Request Header-
Content-type: application/json
Accept: application/json
Authorization: Basic ###########################
What am I doing wrong here?

That's not the correct URI.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/integrate/previous-apis/endpoints/endpoints?view=tfs-2017
The URI would be:
_apis/distributedtask/serviceendpoints

Getting 400 Bad request while acquiring AudienceCountsV2 in Linkedin API

I am using the LinkedIn API V2 and I am trying to query the AudienceCountsV2 from my company profile. I am using the following tutorial to build the request:
https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/guide/v2/ads/audience-counts#targetingCriteriaV2
This is the request information:
GET /v2/audienceCountsV2?q=targetingCriteriaV2&targetingCriteria=(include:(and:List((or:(urn%3Ali%3AadTargetingFacet%3Alocations:List(urn%3Ali%3AcountryGroup%3Ana))),(or:(urn%3Ali%3AadTargetingFacet%3Askills:List(urn%3Ali%3Askill%3A17)))))) HTTP/1.1

When I am trying the same request with TargetingCriteriaV1 I do not have the issue and everything is working fine.
Try,by changing the countryGroup name(na)in urn with capital letters as (urn%3Ali%3AcountryGroup%3ANA).
GET /v2/audienceCountsV2?q=targetingCriteriaV2&targetingCriteria=(include:(and:List((or:(urn%3Ali%3AadTargetingFacet%3Alocations:List(urn%3Ali%3AcountryGroup%3ANA))),(or:(urn%3Ali%3AadTargetingFacet%3Askills:List(urn%3Ali%3Askill%3A17)))))) HTTP/1.1
The problem in this case was that the encoding was not done properly on my side. I was encoding all the ":" symbols while the API has a restriction to encode only a specific part of target criteria object.
For example:
targetingCriteria=(include:(and:List((or:(urn:li:adTargetingFacet:locations:List(urn:li:countryGroup:na))),(or:(urn:li:adTargetingFacet:skills:List(urn:li:skill:17))))))
was encoded to
targetingCriteria=(include:(and:List((or:(urn%3Ali%3AadTargetingFacet%3Alocations:List(urn%3Ali%3AcountryGroup%3Ana))),(or:(urn%3Ali%3AadTargetingFacet%3Askills:List(urn%3Ali%3Askill%3A17))))))

HTTPIE 307 Temp Redirect - APIGATEWAY

I'm trying to get an AWS APIGateway implementation going, and am trying to send a request from the HTTPie module rather than from Postman. It works perfectly from Postman, but HTTPie doesn't seem to work for me, and only throws a 307 Temporary Redirect.
Using the following command:
http POST {userid}.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/sqstest/message name=john
Outputs:
HTTP/1.1 307 Temporary Redirect
Connection: keep-alive
Content-Length: 185
Content-Type: text/html
Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2018 06:28:24 GMT
Location: https://{userid}.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/sqstest/message
Server: CloudFront
Via: ################(CloudFront)
X-Amz-Cf-Id: ######################
X-Cache: Redirect from cloudfront
I did notice that Content-Type was text/html, which was odd considering I needed to send a json - but no matter what variant of the command I tried, it would still return the same results.
From my understanding it should work the same as Postman as long as the headers are the same (they are minus the content-type, which doesn't change even if I define it using -j/--json).
Any help?
Cheers.
After a few hours of trial-and-error, determined that the error was in syntax.
Required a https:// on the command and to state it as json it needed a semicolon (:).
For example:
http POST https://{userid}.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/sqstest/message name:=john
As opposed to the statement in the question.

TFS Web Calling an external REST Service throws 401 error

When creating a web hook within TFS (to access an external rest service url), I get a 401 error when testing (within the TFS application). I think call is not hitting API at all.
Below is the response I can see
Status Code: 401
Reason Phrase: Unauthorized
HTTP Version: 1.1
Headers:
{
Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.5
WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate
WWW-Authenticate: NTLM
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
X-UA-Compatible: IE=EmulateIE8
Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2018 21:05:26 GMT
Content-Length: 1293
Content-Type: text/html
}
Any help would be appreciated!
The error ID 401 usually related to the authorization.
You could first use postman to double check user ID access to the API.
Also use week hook to access some other rest service url such as the example in Web Hooks. This will narrow down if the issue related to rest service url.
Besides try to use Basic Authentication, you can use alternate account instead. How to please take a look at:Protecting a VSTS Web Hook with Basic Authentication

Playground authorization endpoint results in error: "insecure_transport"

First of all, great work. I donated because this could really save me lots of headaches. New to oauth2 and authentication in general. I signed up and registered # https://play.authlib.org/, added newapp. When I tried to authorize with the following uri:
https://play.authlib.org/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=FhHzedZ9kdtQeTQRCwTgZELPdnHCEfEo7K0771U9XircD9Hh&state=e3dC66BGid2z0IwBinMgLKJ92IiD1r
it failed with:
{
"error": "insecure_transport",
"error_description": "OAuth 2 MUST utilize https."
}
Am I miss something?
There is nothing wrong with your code. The server itself has a bug (just fixed).
The playground is powered by Authlib v0.5 now.

How to upload an image using AWS API Gateway Proxy Integration with S3

After setting up my API to upload files, I realised that there is a special case where you want to upload a picture (jpg), you defined the binary support at the API, but you get the following error:
The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you
provided. Check your AWS Secret Access Key and signing method.
Consult the service documentation for details.
The Canonical String for this request should have been
'PUT /test/vi-dummy-bucket/testImg2.jpg
content-type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded
host:qhweyos7z2.execute-api.us-west-1.amazonaws.com
x-amz-date:20170808T154441Z
x-amz-security-token: // security token string no quotes
content-type;host;x-amz-date;x-amz-security-token 5fa90f0 ...'
The String-to-Sign should have been
'AWS4-HMAC-SHA256\n20170808T154441Z
20170808/us-west-1/execute-api/aws4_request
f7a38fa ...'
The strange thing is that uploading simple text files works with the exact same api call, then only thing I have to change is
Content-Type 'text/plain'
and write a text in the raw portion of the request.
Not sure if this is a Content-Type issue or a Request Body Issue, if I leave everything in the working state (text/plain & text in the body) and just change the body to binary and set the image, I get the above error.
My API gateway is in us-west-1 region
My S3 bucket is in us-east-1 region
And the request I am using is:
PUT /test/vi-dummy-bucket/testImg2.jpg HTTP/1.1
Host: qhwe7z2.execute-api.us-west-1.amazonaws.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
X-Amz-Security-Token: FQoDYX ...
X-Amz-Date: 20170808T154441Z

security-token,
Signature=6a792 ... Cache-Control: no-cache
Postman-Token: e9d1f730-f50b-7e27-70cc-c15a138d8cc6
(Binary Image)
This is another version of the request (same error):
PUT /test/vi-dummy-bucket/testImg2.jpg HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: image/jpeg
x-amz-security-token: FQoDY ...
x-amz-date: 20170808T190134Z

Connection: close
User-Agent: Paw/3.1.2 (Macintosh; OS X/10.12.6) GCDHTTPRequest

--- UPDATE ---
After implementing the sigV4 sigining manually using the generated SDK, the signature is no longer an issue.
The only problem left, is that the generated SDK only accepts a string as the "body", so I have to convert the file to a binary string. Then it passes correctly and a file is created in S3, but the size is now double and its not viewable, as if the binary string wasn't converted back to the binary file. So frustrating...
BTW, I've already tried PASSTHROUGH and CONVERT_TO_BINARY.
Updated: It looks like this may be related to a known error in Postman. For reference here is a related SO question: AWS Signature Error using Postman to access the AWS API Gateway when posting a binary
and here is the bug report for Postman: https://github.com/postmanlabs/postman-app-support/issues/3232
Does the request work if you use an alternate rest client and/or a command line utility like curl or httpie?
If you configured the binary support you should probably set the Content-Type to match the binary content you're sending.
From what you've posted you're sending the binary content with Content-Type application/x-www-form-urlencoded but if the body is actually a binary jpeg file I'd expect that you should be sending Content-Type image/jpeg
