I'm trying to test out my API in WSO2 API Manager. I've gone to the API Store, logged in as a regular client user, subscribed to the API, and now I'm trying to test it using the API Console. I can see the API just fine, and I'm clicking the "try it out" button. Unfortunately, for all of my API calls, I just get the progress meter going on forever (the "....." thing on the right). It never completes.
There is nothing in the logs that indicates what is going wrong. I have tried turning a ton of different settings in the log4j.properties file to TRACE or DEBUG, and I'm still getting nothing.
I think I'm asking something very basic, but there seems to be no information about it anywhere: How do I just get the product to log when a REST message comes in to the gateway, and log the HTTP it is trying to send to my REST API? I'm sure if I could get that showing in a log, then I could probably figure out what is going wrong.
Here's how you do it in API Cloud (hosted version of API Manager): http://wso2.com/blogs/cloud/trace-api-calls-and-responses/ - I assume that the same mediation sequences are in the latest version of the product too.

I am facing the challenge to request the Bing Ads API to get a couple of metrics from it.
I am using Apache Airflow DAGs hosted on a remote Kubernetes cluster to do so. It is a nice way to automate and schedule tasks.
Now, the documentation is rather light on the point of gaining access to the API.
I have followed this https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/advertising/guides/authentication-oauth-identity-platform?view=bingads-13#registerapplication
and the official SDK docs https://github.com/BingAds/BingAds-Python-SDK/.
I am failing at authenticating when querying, since I am lacking a couple of pieces of information.
When authenticating using the "refresh token" and "redirect URI", I do not have either. (Class OAuthWebAuthCodeGrant here: https://github.com/BingAds/BingAds-Python-SDK/blob/294d01eea57d80ba381a42cde8d006fc318af056/bingads/authorization.py#L566)
When using a different method (Class OAuthDesktopMobileAuthCodeGrant here: https://github.com/BingAds/BingAds-Python-SDK/blob/294d01eea57d80ba381a42cde8d006fc318af056/bingads/authorization.py#L532), I fail w/
AADSTS700016: Application with identifier '<someidentifier>' was not found in the directory '<somethingelse>'. This can happen if the application has not been installed by the administrator of the tenant or consented to by any user in the tenant. You may have sent your authentication request to the wrong tenant.
Thank you very much in advance! If you need more details, let me know!
Also great documentation in general, if I can make it more "newb"-friendly, let me know!
Edit1:
Sadly, while there has been some traffic to this question, nobody seems to be able to answer.
I will specify the set up a bit further.
We use Airflow DAGs to request daily updates from the API. For this, we need to authenticate. The authentication comes from a "new device" every time, since the code runs on a k8s cluster which allocates the jobs dynamically to it's pods.
For authentication, we ventured into different solutions, but all require some form of human interaction to get the refresh token into the DAG.
Is there any solution which allows for a hands-free deamon like many-server-to-server communication?
This link sheds some light on what we are looking for: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/scenario-daemon-app-registration#api-permissions---app-permissions-and-admin-consent
Sadly, the Bing Ads API does not show up there.
What key piece of information are we missing?
Bing Ads, like Google Ads, uses OAuth for its API.
If you reference the Getting Started page, it mentions that you need a developer token, complete with links.
You can follow these steps to get a developer token for production.
Sign in with Super Admin credentials at the Microsoft Advertising Developer Portal account tab.
Choose the user that you want associated with the developer token. Typically an application only needs one universal token regardless how many users will be supported.
Click on the Request Token button.
Regarding your specific scenario--an application running in the cloud without an interface--you should know that OAuth requires you to interact with it to set things up. So run your app locally ONCE, or at least the getting_started code from your language's walkthrough: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/advertising/guides/walkthrough-desktop-application-python?view=bingads-13
Running it locally will go through the authentication process with your browser and generate a refresh token (in the file refresh.txt by default). Store this file with your code. It will have to be on the server that's making the request, and since it's in Kubernetes, you'll have to keep it with your container file.
I'm trying to implement account linking against our OAuth service.
I tried logging in using gala-demo.appspot.com and that seems to work.
Calling askForSignIn() seem to fail when invoked, i don't get any calls back to my web service so the error seems to be upstream.
The response i see in the debug info when using the assistant simulator is:
expected_inputs[0].possible_intents[0]: intent 'actions.intent.SIGN_IN' is only supported for version 2 and above.
Any ideas?
On another note; If i set signInRequired on the action configuration for the welcome intent, it seems to get further but gives a bad sign in redirect link in simulator and on a device it opens a dialog that just disappears (looks like a successful login) but no response back to the web service.
That happens because you're probably using the old v1 API. I suggest you to check the migration guide:
https://developers.google.com/actions/reference/v1/migration
Cheers!
Sign in intent doesn't work at the moment as clearly explained in the docs, it's just something you can use for test in the emulator, but it's not available in production
I have an application that's been running just fine for a couple of years. Recently I'm getting the error message ACCOUNT_LACKS_PERMISSION_TO_CORRECT_TABS when attempting to add tabs to a newly added signer using a POST .../recipients/[recip-id]/tabs request to the REST API. I'd guess this permission is configured in the DocuSign console, but I'm not finding it there. Anyone know what controls this?
Today I have been trying to implement the rest API into my application to look up transaction information from a transaction ID (GET /v1/payments/sale/)
I have implemented everything correctly on my end and set the mode to "live" and I can't seem to get details from a transaction.
Here is the full error code:
{"name":"REQUIRED_SCOPE_MISSING","message":"Access token does not have required scope","information_link":"https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/docs/api/#REQUIRED_SCOPE_MISSING"}
And here is documentation on what I am trying to do: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/#look-up-a-sale
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
There are few things you could do to make sure your configurations are set right.
If the mode is set to live, are you using the live credentials instead of sandbox. You can select the sandbox app and copy the live credentials from there. See bottom part of this image.
Make sure Payments are enabled on live. PayPal has a dashboard page, where you could see all the services that you have enabled to work with Live environment. This prevents accidents on unknowingly using an API on live. You can check the status here
Is the sale that you are looking for created by the same clientId that you are using for making a GET call ? Only the app who creates the sale, can view the sale.
In the mean time, PayPal has created SDKs for many languages to support REST APIs. They are actively developed, and maintained, and could help you mitigate issues in handling tokens, credentials, etc, and allows you to quickly use APIs faster and in a way that could be upgraded easily. Also, few SDKs come packaged with Sample codes, and wiki documentations. Few are still under development, but you can feel free to contribute back to these open source SDKs.
When I had this issue, the problem was that I was making REST requests using the Identity API token. Basically, I was logging users into my website with Paypal then using that token for REST requests when another token from the REST API service should have been used. "
Here is the support ticket from Paypal SDK deveoper Randy who helped answer my question even though I do not use the SDK. Thanks Randy:

I have an application that goes and gets a users messages from their facebook account, but I've hit an error.
The user in question has a thread between him and me in his inbox, however it doesn't show up in his API call to /me/inbox with his specific access_token.
I do have a valid token (it works for all other calls), and I know it should be working fine (I am opening it in my browser directly to debug, and the data just does not exist).
There is no second page to view, no limit or timestamp imposed upon it, just missing data.
For testing, we do have every single API permission offered, so I know it is not a permissions problem.
Does anyone have any idea why this could be happening, and how to fix it?
I was struggling with the same problem. I found that using the `/me/threads' endpoint delivers much more complete data.
Update:
However I found out that this endpoint is not available to non-developers for the time being:
