business profiles vs personal profiles - all_trips Scope (webhook) - uber-api

Is there currently any way to request or provide authorization for a specific profile?
i.e. I user uber for personal and business - I only want to provide scope permissions for my business account.
** update to add clarification/use case **
I'll create a faux scenario... to help explain
Uber Api provides webhooks for the all_trips scope.
A user uses uber for both business and personal trips - and has a business profile and a personal profile
The company the user works for needs to keep track of time spent in transportation. distance and location dring "business hours" - uber webhooks makes that much easier
The user opts-in to authorize the scopes
every time a trip is taken, the details are sent to the hook, appropriate data is logged
on the users off day, a personal trip is taken - the trip details are sent to the hook and this is also logged - resulting in the question here....
Hope that helps? we only want to receive all_trips for the business profile....

Today it is not possible to specify the profile when requesting a ride. The rider can select their profile once the ride is in progress.
For details see the api endpoint reference:

Ripple XRP Ledger - How do I create an asset or a token? What is the transaction type that accomplishes that?

I would like to create a token (asset) on the Ripple XRP ledger.
What transaction type does that?
So far i only found that a wallet called https://www.theworldexchange.net/ supports that activity.
However, i'd like to do it directly on the network. (Ie through a direct transaction)
There is a complete tutorial (published this August) on how to do this here: https://xrpl.org/issue-a-fungible-token.html
The short version is that it's several steps:
You enable the Default Ripple flag on your issuing account by sending an AccountSet transaction with the appropriate flag. This will allow users to swap your token among themselves.
A user sends a TrustSet transaction to your address indicating their willingness to hold your token.
You send the user the token using a Payment transaction.
There are many ways to use tokens on the XRP Ledger, including community credit, but if you are planning on providing a high-quality token for sales to the public, there are a lot of non-technical steps like defining the appropriate policies, establishing a reputation around your token or your business, and (depending on how you use and promote your token) acquiring the appropriate legal licenses or other standing for the jurisdictions you operate in. (In short: Please don't just make a token to cash in on some online craze and then find the SEC knocking at your door shouting that your token fails the Howey Test.)
You can also create a token through the "Token creator" xApp inside the XUMM wallet.
So you would have to download the XUMM wallet app, create and fund an account and open the "xApps" section and find the "Token Creator" xApp which guides you through the process of creating a token on the XRPL.
Issued Currencies are done via OfferCreate transactions.
In order to issue a currency, one just issues an offer to sell a quantity of some new token for some amount of XRP (or other issued currency for that matter)

Is it possible to use youtube analytics Api in that way?

Hi i create application that is common to youtube and i`ve got some questions. I use google login(oAuth), so i keep in my database all things required to use google APIs for every user that wants to log in. The question is if i can use(is it possible and legal) google analytics to get info(like gender of people which shows his/her video or age or region) about every user that is loged in to my application and show it to another users which using my application ?
edit:
I do not know if you understood me well, user log in to my app with his google account, i have in my database his google token, etc. In my application all users have got youtube account and now what i want to do is that if you are log in, you can see user`s statistics from youtube(like the gender of people who watch his/her video and what is thier age) for any user registered in my app. There is a youtube analyse api, which alow you to get your account stats, and if i have access to someone`s google account(i keep toke in my datbase), i couldnt just use it to request that analyse api for every user and in that way get access to their stats. And another question is if i get data in the way that i described(of course if it is possibe), is it legall, if i can display such an info to other users not only to the owner of the account?
Thanks for help
Is it legall, if i can display such an info to other users not only to the owner of the account? Thanks for help
If you are authenticating a user to get access to their Private data. It is your responsibility as a developer to ensure that their data remains private. You should not be sharing data between your users without there express permission.
If the data you are accessing is public then you are allowed to display that data with anyone.
Remember when you created your google developer console account you agreed to this Google APIs Terms of Service

d. User Privacy and API Clients
You will comply with all applicable privacy laws and regulations including those applying to PII.

Cannot retrieve the reach estimate for some Facebook ads (from the API)

The API lacks some clear explanations on retrieving the reachestimate for either an ad account or an ad. I have made sure that:
I am an admin/ or added to a Facebook app
I have a paid advertising campaign
The adaccount ID is added in the Settings Advanced panel of the Developer App page
I've been trying to:
In Graph API Explorer, retrieve the data by query expansion: me?fields=adaccounts{campaigns{adsets{ads{reachestimate}}}}. However, I always get one of the following (randomly):
Still in the explorer, retrieve it by direct access: act_{adaccount_id}/reachestimate I get this, even if I am 100% sure the ad account is added in the Advanced Settings panel:
Both of 1 and 2 in the iOS project. I get this: com.facebook.sdk.core error 8
Test it by curl with the example from here. I get this (the same with the one from point 2): The ad account is not enabled for usage in Ads API.
Just as a further note, for point 1 that's not the whole query, but I didn't write the adjacent fields because they would've been redundant for the purpose of this question.
I simply need to retrieve the ad accounts, the campaigns, the ad sets and the reach estimate simultaneously in the same query. It seems like a dead spot for me. Do you have any suggestions? Can you show me a Graph API explorer working example? Or, if what I'm asking is impossible, can you simply show some code that works?
Are you app and ad account owned by the same person?
Facebook Ads API has tiered access. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/access
A newly registered app is in Development Tier and can only access the user's own ad accounts. You need to make some API calls on your own ad account for testing in order to get promoted to Basic Tier and manage other people's ad account.
Apparently, I got:
Please reduce the amount of data you're asking for, then retry your request.
Because the query was to broad. Those 'adjacent' fields actually triggered a massive query, so the solution was to either:
Put a limit(1) on the campaigns.
Individually retrieve the reachestimate for each adset.
I chose the latter because it suited my needs, but it's up to you which solution works better.

all_trips scope not returning current trip

I'm prototyping a trip experience. In debug we have a button that requests an in_progress ride to work with. Everything seems to work ok.
However, a release build (hitting the real API rather than sandbox) I get no trips back.
We have requested: request and all_trips scope.
We have the test users' uber accounts added to the developer portal.
Requesting the scopes is working, we're takin to the site and it asks for the appropriate scopes, the app is listed in the user's profile.
Any ideas? Is there a region limitation, for example?
Could you provide some more details on the the exact flow you are following and what endpoints you are hitting?
If you make a GET request to nonsandbox /v1/requests/current with an access token for a user that is on a trip, what response do you get back?

How will my .Net app acquire the necessary tokens from a user who will subscribe to my app?

I am making a .NET application that will allow potential users to upload invoices they make on my app to their quickbooks account that they have set up and synchronized with their QBD version.
what steps will they/I need to take so that when they use my app, it will upload invoices to their account? Is it:
a) when they set up their account with the Intuit AppCenter, they will pick my app from the app center services (in doing so, it will generate a set of oAuth connection parameters for me to put into my app to push invoices to their account, if so how will I get these)?
b) Will I set up an account via the Intuit Platform Partners, and ask the user to use my account ID and Password by which they will "create new app" under my account for the purposes of generating oAuth connection information for my app to use?
c) Something different from the a) and b)?
Thanks!
The OAuth stuff is specifically designed to allow end-users to push a set of OAuth tokens/credentials from QuickBooks to your app. You then store the OAuth tokens, and use those to communicate with QuickBooks.
This is an accurate description of what happens, yes:
a) when they set up their account with the Intuit AppCenter, they will
pick my app from the app center services (in doing so, it will
generate a set of oAuth connection parameters for me to put into my
app to push invoices to their account, ...
You can read more about that process in the docs:
https://developer.intuit.com/docs/0025_quickbooksapi/0010_getting_started/0020_connect/0011_from_the_intuit_app_center
The other scenario is that, if you allow it, the user may choose to connect to QuickBooks from within your app. In this case, they'll click the "Connect to QuickBooks" button (see the docs here: https://developer.intuit.com/docs/0025_quickbooksapi/0010_getting_started/0020_connect/0010_from_within_your_app) which forwards them to Intuit's site, generates the OAuth tokens, and then sends them back to your site with the OAuth tokens.
In either case, the OAuth tokens will be sent to you so that you can store them and use them to communicate with the QuickBooks APIs.
This:
... and ask
the user to use my account ID and Password by which they will "create
new app" under my account for the purposes of generating oAuth
connection information for my app to use?
Is absolutely not what you want them to do. The whole point of OAuth is that you don't need to share any usernames/passwords of any time with any one.
Here are some additional answers to your other comments:
The part I am trying to figure out is what my customers will need to
do to be able to benefit from my app and its QuickBooks Integration
functionality.
They will need to log in to their Intuit.com account, and follow the prompts to connect their QuickBooks company to your app (i.e. follow the prompts to forward the OAuth credentials to your app).
Sounds like he/she will need to set up some account with ID and
password.
If they don't already have an Intuit.com account, they will be prompted to create one during the OAuth process. In the case of QuickBooks Online, they will ALWAYS already have an Intuit.com account (it's the same thing they use to log in to QuickBooks Online).
Now it seems to me that there are two ways that the customer can set
up accounts with Intuit.
They can set up an account through AppCenter, or within QuickBooks desktop directly (when you install the software, it prompts you) or if you're using any Intuit service already (e.g. QuickBooks Online) then you use your existing QuickBooks Online account.
Developer.Intuit.com accounts are only for developers (e.g. for YOU). Your end-users will not have a developer.intuit.com account. Nor do they need one.
a) what are the differences between the two?
Developer.Intuit.com accounts are only for developers. Your end-user will never see the developer.intuit.com website, nor will they see the option to "Create an App".
b) which should be used if the customer wants to set up syncing their
QBD? c)Which should be used if the customer wants to use my .net App.
d)Which should the customer use if they want both (b) and (c)? e) If
the customer creates an account the 2nd way, won't they get confused
by all the "developer" lingo?
None of those questions are applicable - end-users will never see or be prompted about any of the developer stuff. The only reason you see that is because you're registered as a developer. Normal end-users will not be, and thus won't have any of these options.
f)What if the customer has already synced their QBD with intuit?
Then they can just log in to their existing account to get connected (i.e. to send the OAuth credentials over to your app).
With regards to your questions:
A developer can choose to get his app listed on the appcenter or not depending on mkting requirements.
To understand the difference in the process- you can create a sample and then on developer.intuit.com, go to My Apps-> manage my app-> select your app. Then test connections.
You can use any of the above to use QBD data. Please see the additional info too that I have provided.
Also go through the link which consolibyte has mentioned.
If you are logging in from appcenter app, then since you are already logged in, then only OAUTH will be required.
In logging from within your app, you do not need to provide your user Id and password. The user needs to register for the first time with Intuit.com and then OAUTH process follows for him. These open id/email details can be saved in your db so that user need to enter them a next time.
The customer is never about the details of the developer except for the app which will access their company data.
The sync manager for QBD
OAUTH authorizes your app to connect to their company files.
Any of the above can be used to access QBD data.
The sync manager runs manually or automatically. So, customer can choose to sync/not sync his data.
---------------Addtional info----------
There are two ways to integrate with QuickBooks, the first is with REST APIs and the second is with the downloadable QBXML SDK v12. The REST APIs and that integration model is for applications that are to be sold to customers via our Appcenter. They are generally Saas applications.
The second model is the QBXML sdk which is available for anyone to use, especially for custom integrations.
The reference for the QBXML SDK is here
http://member.developer.intuit.com/qbSDK-current/Common/newOSR/index.html
Please go through:
https://developer.intuit.com/docs/0025_quickbooksapi/0055_devkits ->QBXML SDK
Lastly through the QBXML SDK you can add a custom field to any entity you want. See the reference above and take a look at DataExt Add Request. and once added Query Request. I believe this will give you what you are looking for.
Keep in mind this is for QuickBooks for Windows not QuickBooks Online.
You can go through FAQ page too-
https://developer.intuit.com/docs/0025_quickbooksapi/0058_faq
I am settled at this point from what Consolibyte has shared and what I have learned also. The whole picture (for me at least) is that both the Developer Account AND the App Center Account is needed. The Developer account provides the consumer key, consumer secret and application token that the .Net app will use to authenticate with Intuit. The App Center Account is needed to allow the user to sync their QuickBooks Desktop data to a location where the app center (and other 3rd party apps) can have access to it (after user authorizes of course), and to give it's user an ID and Password needed to authorize the .net app ( or any app for that matter) to access his/her Intuit data. It is the combination of the Developer Account's tokens and the App center Account's ID and password that allow the generation of an authentication/access token by which the .Net app can instantiate a Dataservices object so it can read/write to the user's instance of QB data in the App Center. Apart from the user creating an account in the App Center and synching their QB Desktop data with it, There should be little or nothing else to do except provide the ID and password, providing the .Net app is coded right. I am not talking about OpenID in this case, but do know that it uses the same ID and password.
...so I'm good. Thx.
