I'm integrating yodlee soap service to loan management system. To perform validation I need to get accountNumber and routingNumber from the bank account. On my bank account web site I can see account number but yodlee masks out part of account numbers by 'x' symbol and returns something like xxxx7-50 in getItemSummaries response. Also some accounts have empty routing number.
Is that some king of security limitation or it can be due to fact that I'm currently using test yodlee account?
Is there way to get bank routing number and original bank account number without masking by using soap yodlee service?
Thanks.
This is because of security limitation of the Aggregation product.If you wish to have unmasked account number then you will have to go through some tests from Yodlee's security team and then Yodlee can customize the API to send you unmasked account number. For this you need to get in touch with sales representative.
Also if you are building the solution for US market then you can try out the IAV data service APIs , if you are interested in Account number and routing number. As IAV is the main product for verification of account.

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.
I am trying to connect my WhatsApp Business Account with Facebook so that it shows my business name. As per https://www.facebook.com/business/help/2087193751603668?helpref=faq_content there shall be an option for WhatsApp Account in business.facebook.com under 'Business Settings' > Accounts. But it is not there. It also says:
If the WhatsApp accounts option is not visible, the Business API may
not be available to you yet.
So can anyone guide how to get Business API access?

When I do a Paypal API signature request under business profile, the generated api is using my old website ---whateverAPI.my-old-website.com
I've updated all of my business information and see no instances of the old url in my paypal account or the developer or sandbox accounts.
I do not have the old login information for developer area where I created the original API information as it was changed to my new login/business.
I need to change the URL associated with my account so the api generated has the apicode.new-website.com
I know this is a low level expertise for most of you compared to what you are coding but I am completely stuck and have tried everything I can think of.
Thanks for taking the time to read!
When the API is first requested on an account, it is generated based on the email address associated with the account at the time. Even if you remove the email address and request new API credentials, it will still use that original email address. There is no need for concern, you only set this in your API call or in your shopping cart to use. Buyers are not going to see it or anything, and it's not something you would regularly share or have to use all that often. Once you set it in your code, you don't really mess with it again unless you need to set up the API credentials again.
For my own gmail account, I have multiple email addresses associated with it. For example, I have an email address from my university that is associated with my gmail, and I can send emails from my gmail as if they are coming from my university email address.
I'm reading up on the Google APIs, and I see that I can get a user's gmail address, but can I also get any other email address that is associated with their gmail account?
When a user logs in to my site, I'd like to present them with a list of the gmail-associated email addresses and let them select the one they would like to use.
EDIT: Thanks everyone for the answers, but I don't think any of them answers the question. I've been playing with Google's OAuth playground. It is strange that I can get lots of very personal information (a list of a user's contacts and even received emails) but I can't get the user's alternative email addresses.
Your description is a little vague. Are you talking about send-as alias accounts or alternate email accounts?
Send-as Alias
Either way, you can interact with the send-as accounts here: Manage Send-as Alias
Alternate Emails via Admin SDK
As for alternate email accounts, they can be accessed via:
Admin SDK: https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/directory/v1/guides/manage-user-aliases?hl=en
Google Apps Script: https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference/gmail/gmail-app#getAliases()
Additional info here on how the accounts work.
Email addresses associated with your account
Alternate email addresses and other Google products
Connect other email accounts to your Google Account
Federated Login
Also, I'm not exactly sure how you are trying to incorporate this functionality into your site but another area I recommend checking out is Federated Login for Google Account Users. This might also provide you with the functionality you seek.
Using federated login (also known as federated identity), your website
or application can allow visitors to sign in using their Google user
accounts. Federated login frees users from having to set up separate
login accounts for different websites, and frees you from the task of
implementing login authentication measures.
It has been a while since the question was asked. You can use the Google People API to get a user's primary email address and aliases. Here's the documentation. The scope you need to use is: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/user.addresses.read
This will return all the email addresses for the user and also tell you which is the primary one.
If you use OAuth to have your users sign-in with their Google accounts (with or without G+) the user will be prompted (by Google) to select which of their accounts they wish to authorize your application to use:
https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2Login
So to directly answer your question, I'm not aware of an API to return that list of users - however you shouldn't need to, Google will take care of this before returning to your application.
If your user is already logged in, and you wish to give them the ability to change the Google account they are using, I believe it is possible to prompt them again to select the account they are interested in (search for select_account on the link above).
This is possible. However, this has changed since Google announced the deprecation of their Google+ People API, which a lot of folks used to get all the email addresses for a user. The current most voted answer now goes to a 404.
Google Plus People API Replacement
Google has replaced the Google Plus People API /plus/v1/people/me with https://developers.google.com/people/ and you’ll want to use the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/user.emails.read profile scope as discussed here as a replacement. The schema is different, so you'll need to change your mapping as well.
If your app already used the following scopes from the old /plus/v1/people/me your user will not have to re-consent when you switch to the new API:
email
profile
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.me
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.profile.agerange.read
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.profile.emails.read
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.profile.language.read
Is there any way to use some paypal api for validation of username in paypal?
Google didn't give much :( and using such method isn't comfortable, cause there are too many requested parameters(for example, i know user's email, but i don't even want to know his adress,etc.).
PayPal doesn't provide such an API and for a very good reason.
Remember - it's being constantly under a lot of pressure from scammers around the world that are trying to steal other people's money. Just imagine the phishing power one might get by being able to pre-validate the email addresses to see if they really are current PayPal users and then crafting a targetted email attack on them...
Such an API (to see if a random email address is registered with a PayPal account holder) does not and never will exist for security reasons. With possibly one exception - "trusted partners", where PayPal partners up with a big and established entity and allows special API permissions (based on secure credentials), but this is not something a mere mortal could ever hope for.
Furthermore, if a workaround is discovered that allows to do just that - rest assured PayPal will patch that hole ASAP to avoid security breach.
