Twilio Push credentials with multiple accounts - certificate

At our company, we have a telecommunication platform based on Twilio with multiple sub-accounts. Now, that we want to switch to VOIP, we have a little problem on how to properly setup the Mobile Push Credentials.
Is there a way to set it up on the master account ?
or the process of creating, signing up the certificate should be done on each account separately ?
I did not found anything on the documentation regarding this issue.

Master and sub-accounts are best for separating billing amongst customers that you have, so it is not possible for sub-accounts to use resources from the master account.
You could automate the process of creating the certificates for each sub-account using the Credentials REST API though.

Is PayPal's Message Centre available via an API?

I am working on a project and my clients want to have the Message centre of Paypal integrated into their system so they won't need to log in every time on PayPal account to check their emails and reply.
I can not find any available option on their developer portal for a call similar to that. But I thought to ask here as may someone had better luck finding that.
Much appreciated.
There is a customer Disputes API for handling that part of backend administration. This is typically only useful for large/enterprise merchants.
Other things require logging into the account. User logins with specific/limited roles can be created.

Test SendGrid Upsert Cron Job

Just trying to get the best method for testing adding/updating contacts via a cronjob without interfering with the current contacts list. Will I need to create a new account specifically for testing?

If you want to make requests to the API as part of your testing (which I normally advise against, as testing 3rd party services should be unnecessary), and you don't want to affect your data, then you don't need a completely new account, but you can use a Subuser account.

iPhone Developer account: Multiple Admins?

I am doing some dev work for a client. She has a Dev License should would like to put the app under but since she is non-technical it has been frustrating since she has to be the one to submit the final app.
Is there a way for a Dev License to have multiple Admins? I have it configured so I am a developer but as such I cannot do the Distribution License. Only she can do that. Is there a fix?
If you have a good relationship to your client, you might want to ask her for her login details so you can do it yourself.
There is one other possibility though: For a similar problem I was given the advice to build & archive my app and send the archive to the client. He could then resign the app using his certs, which would eliminate the need for him to do all the building stuff, not to mention it will spare you to surrender your source code. However, this will not eliminate the need for your client to enter all the meta information and so forth while uploading the app.
For the necessary steps to resign an app, see this answer.
To answer your original question: Each developer account has exactly one Team Agent. So you need some kind of workaround anyway.
There is only one administrative or Team leader per developer account. So you really need to plan on the policy for sharing use of that account from the beginning, if the required activities of the agent need to be split up among multiple parties, if you can't have one party capable of doing everything.
A shared account can be created from the beginning (either by the owner or the developer). I recommend an ADC account be created just for this purpose, instead of just using the owner's personal account and email address ( e.g. instead of mary.smith#sample.com, create and use iosdeveloper#sample.com for enrolling as an iOS developer. )
Account credentials can be "loaned" (perhaps with password changes after use).
You can be given remote access (VNC/RDP) into the owners PC or Mac (or more secure yet, a VM session) as or after they log in.
You can talk the owner though the process over the phone (or video chat, etc.).
Or, the owner can learn how to get certificates, and build or resign and submit apps themselves, perhaps using a comprehensive script.

Does my client need a developer account to submit the app I made them to the App Store?

I wonder if someone could offer insight here:
I work for an independent multimedia firm who builds communications material for their clients. We're currently working through our first iPhone app. So, my shop has now completed an app that conforms to our client's brand, and we wish to deploy this app to the App Store on behalf of our client. Looking over Apple's documentation, everything seems to be written on the assumption that you are releasing your own app... therefore, the Apple documentation seems to start one step ahead of where I need it to.
So, as a multimedia production firm, I have set up a developer account for my company that I have been using to develop our client's app. However, I assume my account cannot release my client's application, given that it would cite my company's name as the publisher. Therefore, how do I start this process on behalf of my client? Will they first need their own $99 developer account to publish with, or is there a separate publisher identity that I can set up within my account that represents my client?
Any and all help on this would be appreciated. Thanks!
I typically have the client create their own account. From there most clients will provide me access to their admin account so I can go through the rest of the steps.
I often submit apps through their admin account, however, a team member is an option if the client is not interested to provide admin credentials.

Cloud e-mail and portal integration: experiences?

I am evaluating cloud e-mail solutions based upon:
Google Apps for Education
Microsoft Live#edu
I work for a University and we currently have an institutional portal (based on uPortal).
We currently have our local IMAP server and webmail client fully integrated with the portal. We would like to replicate the current portal e-mail experience with the new e-mail services. At present users can see a snapshot of their inbox in the portal and click through into the appropriate place in the webmail client.
We expect that we need to solve similar problems when integrating with the cloud based e-mail solutions.
We need to solve the single sign-on (SSO) problem.
We need to be able to access the inbox messages on the users behalf. (e.g. proxy authentication)
Does anybody have an experience or advice on this?
Many thanks,
Mark
Not sure what programming language you can use, however you can download the source code for some MOSS web parts for live#edu to give you an idea how to code them, they use SSO.
If anybody else happens upon this page they might also be interested the answers I recieved via the Jasig uPortal Mailing List answers
