I am working on a project where we create playlists in Deezer using the api, we have been doing this successfully since the call to make it was implemented. However one of our testers noticed today that the Playlists were no longer private. I can verify this is the case in the Deezer api explorer and in my code.
Go to http://developers.deezer.com/api/explorer?url=playlist/4341978# (need to change id to a playlist that your account has created and use getToken feature)
Change the method to post
Add parameter public with value of false
Open console and watch response
Will return an "Input Error" message
The exact same thing is happening in my code when sending the same kind of request (including the token as a parameter) which has previously definitely worked as intended.
Do you know if the api has changed and I am missing some extra parameters or config? Or possibly there is error which is causing this?

YouTube API eventType=live not working, does anyone have an idea why?
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=snippet&channelId=UCmyKnNRH0wH-r8I-ceP-dsg&eventType=live&type=video&key=
Without eventType was working fine (but not now):
https://www.youtube.com/embed/live_stream?channel=UCmyKnNRH0wH-r8I-ceP-dsg&autoplay=1
Looks like YouTube changed something in API, search.list really not returning live broadcast since end of last week.
If you have user's access token you can use https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/liveBroadcasts?part=snippet&broadcastStatus=active&broadcastType=all
endpoint to retrieve if any broadcast is live.
If you do not have user's access token, you can try this answer
but i didn't check it if it is working
Anyway this question looks like to be a duplicate of this question
Right now the YouTube API is not working, specifically for retrieving live streams of a specific channelId. In other words if you are setting channelId in the API call, you will get 0 results.
If you're using an API key rather than OAuth (not sure if OAuth works) the only work around at the moment is to use the API to search for a specific title. Here is my query URL below.
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=id%2Csnippet&type=video&maxResults=20&order=date&q=My+Uniquely+Titled+Livestream&key=[apiKey]
The results returned by the API will be from all of YouTube. (Note: the rest is done serverside) Put the results into an array and discard any that don't match your channelId. Then check the titles in an array and only get the video ID of the one that matches your desired title. That is the basic logic and it is sort of a rigid work around that won't work for most. But at least it will get you what you need until Google fixes the API.
I am trying to get the id from the public-profile-url. The query looks like:
https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/url={https://www.linkedin.com/in/name}
However, what I get get back from linkedin is:
<error>
<status>400</status>
<timestamp>1460131755319</timestamp>
<request-id>2OV9FJ0DTR</request-id>
<error-code>0</error-code>
<message>[invalid.param.url]. Public profile URL is not correct,
{url=}; should be {https://www.linkedin.com/pub/[member-name/]x/y/z} or
{https://www.linkedin.com/in/string}</message>
The interesting part is:
Public profile URL is not correct, {url=}; should be {https://www.linkedin.com/pub/[member-name/]x/y/z} or {https://www.linkedin.com/in/string}
The url clearly adheres to the rules that they mention and the url works. Any idea on how to fix it?
You cannot reliably retrieve a member ID from a profile URL. id values that you can rely on are returned as part of Profile API calls. From time to time, LinkedIn changes the format of it's public profile URLs, so attempting to parse them or reconstruct them can leave your app in a broken state. The public-profile-url field should be considered read-only, and not something you try and parse or create yourself.
e.g.: GET https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~:(id,first-name,last-name,public-profile-url)?format=json
id values are encoded to specific LinkedIn applications and cannot be re-used between apps. As a result, any value you attempt to pull out of a URL won't be of any use to you. The information needs to be acquired via an API call.
I've been trying to get OAuth 2.0 to work correctly. I have managed to make the url that that will do the "deny/allow" for my app by opening a webpage with just
Application.OpenUrl(uri.ToString());
The problem is that I have no idea how to get the redirect and the auth token from the page if the user hits allow. When you hit allow, right now nothing happens it just sits on the page. Checking Networking in chrome debug does have the redirect and token there but it never actually sends it..
I was recommended to use RestSharp but I again have no idea how to use it with Unity as there are lot of resources for Android/iOS PC etc. but I can't get any of them to work for this Unity project...
var client = new RestClient("https://www.fitbit.com/oauth2/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=*clientID*&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2FfitRPGcallback&scope=activity%20profile%20sleep%20social");
Debug.Log("client made");
var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);
request.Resource = ("profile%20sleep%20social");
client.ExecuteAsync(request, response => { Debug.Log("response is : " + response.Content);});
Application.OpenURL(client.BaseUrl.ToString());
In the URL I do have the correct clientID in there as well just not sure what I can and can't show for security reasons etc.
Biggest problem is just having no idea how to get the return value from the webpage after the user hits allow/deny...
Any insights would be super super appreciated cause I just want to start making the actual game but there's not as much point if I can't get this data...
So, I'm posting on a few other applicable questions as well since I have finally figured out my answer.
Unfortunately I'm not using REST so that part is still up in the air BUT I did get it to work with just Fitbit, Unity and a Webview plugin (you will need a webview OR a way to get the initial code back from your first OAuth2 call)
You can find steps here.

EDIT:
So I had to change how I did it because Fitbit changed their ToS where we are no longer allowed to use Webview based Authenticators (which is what I was using in the above blogpost.)
Give this next post a look for how to make an Android Plugin that will grab the Accesstoken from Fitbit's OAuth. This is a FREE way to do it since you make it yourself and it's ezmode :)

Suddenly simple Facebook Graph API calls started to return an empty result. The node I'm calling is a simple search page by name:
`https://graph.facebook.com/search?type=page&fields=profile_picture,username,id,name,likes,category,talking_about_count&access_token=<APP_TOKEN>&limit=10&q=stackoverflow`
It just started to return an empty result set when called from my server:
{"data":[]}
When I'm calling it from my personal computer browser, it works just fine.
I don't see any notification in Facebook Manage Apps page. What can be the reason? Is there any way I can see any error in this Graph API result?
UPDATE: suddenly it started working again, after it was down for at least 2 hours. Is there any way I can make these calls through client side JS? Any way to avoid to exposure of my APP_TOKEN?
UPDATE2: It stopped working again, and although I haven't identified the reason, I did figure when replacing the with a , it does work. The documentation actually says to use an APP_TOKEN.
I've create an facebook app and it run smoothly at
https://apps.facebook.com/icoloringstar/
But the problem is: when I search my app name "icoloring star" in facebook, it link to the app at url:
https://apps.facebook.com/icoloringstar/?fb_source=search&ref=ts
Then facebook said that:
App "iColoring Star" is unavailable
The app "iColoring Star" is temporarily unavailable due to an issue with its third-party developer. We are investigating the situation and apologize for any inconvenience.
We found that url part "ref=ts" cause above problem, but really do not know why?
Could you explain me why and how to resolve this problem?
Thank you very much.
It sounds like your code is failing when the ref parameter is supplied in the request path.
I was able to repro this with any arbitrary value in the ref parameter when accessing your app
Check your server logs and and see if you're returning a 500 error to facebook when the request comes in
See if you have any code that parses a ref parameter and check it's not throwing exceptions
Make sure your callback URL in the app settings doesn't also specify a ref parameter or your app may receive two values and/or fail entirely
It means 'Top Search'. User enter a query into the top of search.
There are some ref parameters.. ref=bookmarks for example. I dont know the full list.
Did you put your app on Facebook App Center?
