I'm writing a Google Cloud Print test and trying to add privet (local Google Cloud Print) functionality to it.
After a decent amount of futzing I've gotten /privet/printer/submitdoc to print a page for my test but /privet/printer/jobstate doesn't return status. Also it blocks for a while I tried using /privet/printer/createjob but the printer crashes. I'm not sure if the body I POST ed is a correct CJT ticket this is probably an error with the printer either way but I'd like to have a test I know should pass and I can't google any CJT examples.
Should this work?
{'version' : 1, 'print' : {'vendor_ticket_item': []}}
privet docs: https://developers.google.com/cloud-print/docs/privet
CJT docs: https://developers.google.com/cloud-print/docs/cdd?hl=en#cjt
Below CJT should work.
{
"version": "1.0",
"print": {
"vendor_ticket_item": [],
"color": {"type": "STANDARD_MONOCHROME"},
"copies": {"copies": 1}
}
}
Thanks

I have setup a custom dimension in google analytics 'dimension2' into which I want to capture a WPForms UniqueID. I added this to Google Tag manager and I can see the custom dimension with a value when I preview site in GTA preview.
. I added this to gtags.js on this word press site,
var dimensionValue = $.cookie("_wpfuuid");
gtag('config', 'UA-1234567890-2', {
'custom_map': {'dimension2': 'wpfid'}
});
gtag('set', 'dimension2', {'wpfid': dimensionValue});
In google analytics query explorer, I can see dimension2 in the test results.
"columnHeaders": [
{
"name": "ga:dimension2",
"columnType": "DIMENSION",
"dataType": "STRING"
},
{
"name": "ga:users",
"columnType": "METRIC",
"dataType": "INTEGER"
}
],
"totalsForAllResults": {
"ga:users": "1"
},
"rows": [
[
"40502794-ecf1-4cf6-97b9-2c16c7f6c949",
"1"
]
]
And, I can see the dimension2 data in google analytics user explorer, so it is making it to the browser interface for analytics.
However, when I add the following to my API query script, it breaks and is not generating any php errors, or the error is that it does not recognize 'dimension2'. I tried this on 2 views and both act the same. Here is my code to add the custom dimension to my query
$dimension = new Google_Service_AnalyticsReporting_Dimension();
$dimension->setName("ga:dimension2");
What am I missing? Why isn't this visible in google api results and/or where I can I see any errors?
Some hours later, this code started to work, which suggests to me that custom dimensions are not immediately available to the api. In this case the api recognized dimension2 long after the data was visible in the analytics website.
Second possibility to check which can cause this seemingly good code to not work, you are using the wrong view id. Of the 2 views I tested, this only works on one.
We've recently started creating API endpoints. One of these end points is hardcoded to change 2 of our reference type codes (i.e. code: "P" for mobile is being changed to "M") from their system value to a custom value (out of a configurable list that has approximately 12 records at the moment. I'm trying to convince them it's bad practice and a terrible idea to change this reference data because of all of the issues it can cause for systems that use the api, however they believe it increases the "independence" of the API from the system of truth. We work in an enterprise environment and currently only our systems hit the api.
Is there any other data or information (Copious amounts of google searching hasn't revealed anyone discussing this sort of issue specifically) that suggests this is a bad idea? Or am I wrong in thinking so?
Edit:
For reference here's some examples:
What the data would look like in the source system the api pulls from
{
"phone_type": "P",
"phone_number": "1234567890",
"user_id":"username"
}
What that same data would look like coming from our API now
{
"phone_type": "M",
"phone_number": "1234567890",
"user_id":"username"
}
What the reference data would look like coming from our reference codes end point
[
{
"code": "P",
"description": "Mobile Number",
"active":"true"
}
]
I apologize if this is a stupid question. I have been spending quite a while trying to get daily updates for my google assistant app to work (found at https://developers.google.com/actions/assistant/updates/daily).
I get the prompt on my phone to initiate the daily updates because my server gets the configure updates event. However, I think I am not sending the correct response back because I just get the error "UnparseableJsonResponse: API Version 2: Failed to parse JSON response string with 'INVALID_ARGUMENT' error: ": Cannot find the field."
Usually, my server just responds with a JSON in the structure:
return{
"speech": 'sample text',
"DisplayText": 'sample text',
"source": "sample"
}
However, according to the Google documentation, I need to return the JSON
{
"conversationToken":"",
"expectUserResponse":true,
"expectedInputs":[
{
"inputPrompt":{
"initialPrompts":[
{
"textToSpeech":"PLACEHOLDER_FOR_REGISTER_UPDATE"
}
],
"noInputPrompts":[
]
},
"possibleIntents":[
{
"intent":"actions.intent.REGISTER_UPDATE",
"inputValueData":{
"":"",
"intent":"tell.tip",
"triggerContext":{
"timeContext":{
"frequency":"DAILY"
}
},
}
}
]
}
]
}
I tried returning this exact JSON but as I suspected it's not that simple. I'm not sure how to adapt this format to one that dialogflow expects. Any help would be much appreciated. Note that I'm looking at the response structure at https://dialogflow.com/docs/fulfillment. I also considered the actions on google structure too at https://developers.google.com/actions/reference/rest/Shared.Types/AppResponse. I'm just very confused on how to do this since the guide is mostly suited for people using node js and the SDK.
I'm building an Angular SPA with a Cloudant data store on Bluemix.
Since the Bluemix implementation of OpenWhisk doesn't use VCAP services, I see 3 options to use OpenWhisk as my api provider for cloudant queries for my Angular app:
Follow the pattern of passing credentials as seen here: https://github.com/IBM-Bluemix/openwhisk-visionapp (very interesting approach btw)
Include the credentials as though I'm running locally as seen here: https://github.com/IBM-Bluemix/nodejs-cloudant/blob/master/app.js
Use the http API as seen here: https://docs.cloudant.com/api.html (which highlights the security problem passing credentials.
Since my service is not intended for publishing (it's intended for my own app) I'm thinking option 2 is my "least of all evils" choice. Am I missing something? My thinking is such that while fragile to changes it would be the most secure since credentials aren't passed in the open. The serverless infrastructure would have to be hacked...
Thanks in advance!
(lengthy) Update: (apologies in advance)
I've gotten a little farther along but still no answer - stuck in execution right now.
To clarify, my objective is for the app to flow from Angular Client -> OpenWhisk -> Cloudant.
In this simplest use case, I want to pass a startTime parameter and an endTime parameter, have OpenWhisk fetch all the records in that time range with all fields, and passing back selected fields. In my example, I have USGS earthquake data in a modified GeoJSON format.
Following information from the following articles below, I've concluded that I can invoke the wsk command line actions and use the bindings I've setup from within my Javascript function and therefore not pass my credentials to the database. This gives me a measure of security (still question the rest endpoint of my OpenWhisk action) but I figure once I get my sample running I think through that part of it.
My command line (that works):
wsk action invoke /my#orgname.com_mybluemixspace/mycfAppName/exec-query-find --blocking --result --param dbname perils --param query {\"selector\":{\"_id\":{\"$gt\":0},\"properties.time\":{\"$gt\":1484190609500,\"$lt\":1484190609700}}}
This successfully returns the following:

The action I created in OpenWhisk (below) returns an Internal Server Error. I'm passing the input value as
{
"startTime": "1484161200000",
"endTime": "1484190000000"
}
Here's the code for my action:
`var openWhisk = require('openwhisk');
var ow = openWhisk({
api_key:'im really a host'
});
function main(params) {
return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
ow.actions.invoke({
actionName:'/my#orgname.com_mybluemixspace/mycfAppName/exec-query-find',
blocking:true,
parameters:{
dbname: 'perils',
query: {
"selector": {
"_id": {
"$gt": 0
},
"properties.time": {
"$gt": params.startTime,
"$lt": params.endTime
}
}
}
}
}).then(function(res) {
//get the raw result
var raw = res.response.result.rows;
//lets make a new one
var result = [];
raw.forEach(function(c) {
result.push({id:c.docs._id, time:c.docs.properties.time, title:c.docs.properties.title});
});
resolve({result:result});
});
});
}`
Here are the links to my research:
http://infrastructuredevops.com/08-17-2016/news-openwhisk-uniq.html
Useful because of the use of the exec-query-find and selector syntax usage but also cool for the update function I need to build for populating my data!

Am I overlooking something?
Thanks!
I'm assuming what you are trying to do is to access your Cloudant DB directly from your angular client side code from the Browser.
If you don't need any business logic, or you can get away by using Cloudant features (design docs, views, map, reduce, etc..) and you are generating Cloudant API keys with certain access (i.e. write vs. read), then you don't need a server or serveless middlewear/tier.
But now let's get real, most people need that tier, and if you are looking a OpenWhisk, then you are in good luck this is very easy to do.
OpenWhisk on Bluemix support VCAP service credentials, but in a different way.
Let's name you have a Bluemix Org carlos#example.com and space dev that would translate to OpenWhisk namespace carlos#example.com_dev
If you add a Cloudant service under the space dev in Bluemix, this will generate service key credentials for this Cloudant Account. This credentials give you super power access meaning you are admin.
If you want to use this Cloudant credentials in OpenWhisk, you can use the automatic binding generated with the cloudant package.
To do this using the OpenWhisk CLI run wsk package refresh this will pull the Cloudant credentials and create you a new package with the credentials binded as default parameter for all the cloudant actions under that package. This is modified version of #1 above
Another alternative is to bind the credentials manually to a package or an action as default parameters, this makes sense when you don't want to use the super power admin credentials, and you generated a Cloudant API key for a specific database. This is option #1 above.
I would not recommend to put the credentials in source code #2
For option #3, what's insecure is to pass your credentials as part of the URL like https://username:password#user.cloudant.com, but passing the username and password in the Authorization header over https is secured.
This is because even if you are using secure transport https everything in the URI/URL is not encrypted anyone can see that value, but passing secrets in body or header is standard practice as this is transfer after secure connection is established.
Then you create actions that use the credentials as parameters in your OpenWhisk actions to build your business logic for your backend.
Then how to do you access this backend from the Browser, well OpenWhisk has a API Gateway feature in experimental that allows your to expose your actions as public APIs with CORS enable.
Only a url is expose, your credentials as default parameters are never expose.

I have been trying to run a query against IBM Watson Tone Analyzer service and keep getting an error that my service credentials are not recognized.
I am sure that I am entering the correct credentials. Here are the steps that I took to get the service credentials:
Signed up with bluemix.net.
Clicked on Tone Analyzer icon.
Clicked on service credentials.
Clicked on add credentials and used the credentials that were obtained from this step.
I followed these steps multiple times but keep running into same error:
watson_developer_cloud.watson_developer_cloud_service.WatsonException: Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials
I would really appreciate any insights here.
I was just able to run a test without any errors. Here are the steps I took:
1. Created a new IBM Watson Tone Analyzer instance:
2. Looked at the service credentials page:
(I've changed the username to "abcuser" and the password to "abcpass" for this example.)
3. I ran this curl command to test out my service:
curl -u "{username}":"{password}" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{\"text\": \"Hi Team, I know the times are difficult! Our sales have been disappointing for the past three quarters for our data analytics product suite. We have a competitive data analytics product suite in the industry. But we need to do our job selling it! \"}" "https://gateway.watsonplatform.net/tone-analyzer/api/v3/tone?version=2016-05-19"
so replacing the username and password, I get...
curl -u "abcuser":"abcpass" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{\"text\": \"Hi Team, I know the times are difficult! Our sales have been disappointing for the past three quarters for our data analytics product suite. We have a competitive data analytics product suite in the industry. But we need to do our job selling it! \"}" "https://gateway.watsonplatform.net/tone-analyzer/api/v3/tone?version=2016-05-19"
4. Finally, I got this response:

Edit:
If you are having trouble with the Python SDK, try this:
import json
from watson_developer_cloud import ToneAnalyzerV3Beta
tone_analyzer = ToneAnalyzerV3Beta(
url='https://gateway.watsonplatform.net/tone-analyzer/api',
username='USERNAME',
password='PASSWORD',
version='2016-02-11')
print(json.dumps(tone_analyzer.tone(text='I am very happy'), indent=2))
From your post above it looks you are doing the right thing with credentials, but trying to use them against a Beta instance of Tone Analyzer service.
As some background to understand any comments below: Tone Analyzer became "GA" on May 20th. Previously, it was "Beta". The Beta plan has URL https://gateway.watsonplatform.net/tone-analyzer-beta/api, while GA uses .../tone-analyzer/api (no -beta). Additionally if you are doing Python, there are two wrappers: ToneAnalyzerV3Beta (Beta) and ToneAnalyzerV3 (GA). Since we are still transitioning, some people still use existing instances of Beta plans, and also wrappers for Beta still exist.
Most importantly, credentials for the Beta plan will not work in GA, and vice versa.
That said, you need to make sure you are consistently using the GA or "standard" plan everywhere:
In your app, bind a "Tone Analyzer" (not Beta) plan.
Make sure the API URL contains /tone-analyzer/api (no -beta)
In the wrapper (python, node, java, or your URL if you did your own), use the "GA" (anything without "Beta" suffix).
Another detail (which wrappers will handle for you transparently) is that ?version argument is 2016-05-19 for the last API version. You should be using this one to get the latest features...
Joe's answer is very detailed about the process, just make sure you distinguish this Beta vs GA thing. Please add another comment if you have more questions. I hope this helps!
