I have been using a simple auth connect to retrieve analytics data from various profiles within my account using the main username and password as credentials. This has worked well until now and locally (on my MAMP server) the method still works. Even those accounts not using my main access details (as they are on another analytics account) these work fine live and locally. However, within the last 24hours my main account details on the live server seem to have stopped being able to retrieve data.
It authenticates fine but when I try and retrieve profile information I get the response:
<errors xmlns="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005">
<error>
<domain>GData</domain>
<code>insufficientPermissions</code>
<internalreason>User does not have sufficient permissions for this profile.</internalreason>
</error>
</errors>
Confusing as it works fine on my local, I have checked the API is enabled in the developers console.

I have setup an API Connect developer portal in the sandbox catalog (I've been following the basic tutorials about configuring an API developer portal found here).
I receive a message saying that i'll get a one time login link so that i can login to the portal as admin and reset my password. However, this never arrives. I have tried configuring the portal a number of times now and this link never comes. Therefore i'm unable to login as admin.
I've also tried using the 'request new password' option on the developer portal itself and entering my email but this also does not work
Is there a way I can retrieve the login link?
This could be a number of things:
1) the IBM emails often get flagged as spam
2) the IBM email server, or rather the people they've contracted this out to, doesn't fully comply with DKIM/SPF security, so if you are on a corporate server that requires this then you won't get your emails.
The workaround I've done in the past is spin up a gmail account and be sure to check my spam folder.
Response status code does not indicate success: 401 (Unauthorized) When calling Azure Blockchain
I am getting above error when calling Azure Blockchain RESTApi and I have checked all the permissions and getting Access Token correctly but When I call to get the applications we are getting Above mentioned Error
The issue was fixed, by following the below steps:
1) Go to Azure Portal-> App Service -> [Your App Service]-Api
2) Go to Authentication/Authorization Blade
Allow App Service Authentication and choose Allow anonymous requests(no action) and choose Azure Active Directory as Authentication Providers
Click on Advanced -> Fill in the options as in the following image:
Client ID is the same as App ID in the AzureAD Application Registration
Client Secret is the same as API Key you generated from the Keys Section in the AzureAD Application Registration
Issuer URL is https://sts.windows.net/{AZUREADTENANTID} ß You can get the azuread tenant ID from the AzureAD Properties
Allowed Token Audiences should have the following value:
i. [https://%7bYOURBLOCKCHAINAPIURL-API.azurewebsites.net/.auth/login/aad/callback]
https://{YOURBLOCKCHAINAPIURL-API.azurewebsites.net/.auth/login/aad/callback
3) Go to Azure Active Directory
Now, go to Azure AD and Navigate to App Registrations and Click BlockChain API ß or the name you chose for your Azure AD App Registration when you configured blockchain the first time:
Click Settings and Click Reply URLs
Add the following URLs there:
Blockchain Workbench URL (it should be already there)
Blockchain API Base URL (the one that has -API in it)
Blockchain API Base URL with Callback (as indicated below, but use your own URL and add /.auth/login/aad/callback)
The getpostman.com/oauth2/callback URL will be used later to test the API using the Postman App (An App used to test APIs), please add it as is below
4) Save your settings and then go to the Manifest(Next to settings in the Blockchain API AzureAD App Properties)
Set the manifest entry oauth2allowimplicitflow to True
Save Configuration.
That’s it, now we need to test the API, you can download Postman to test the API, the configuration of Postman is a little bit long, I would prefer that you sign up free on this service: https://www.wintellectnow.com/Videos/Watch?videoId=blockchain-on-azure
Use Code: FREETRIAL to sign up – It will require a credit card but it won’t be charged, use any prepaid or postpaid card, but watching this video is highly recommended, specially at minute 53 as it explains how to use the API with Postman (Remember to disable the trial to prevent the card from being charged after 7 days 😊)
Here is a sample Token generated using the built in Auth Sample code that comes with Azure Blockchain Samples on Gethub (You can download this from here: https://github.com/Azure-Samples/blockchain/tree/master/blockchain-workbench/auth-samples/bearer-token-retrieval/static ), if you are going to test using it, you must add http://localhost to the Reply URLs above and you have to place it on your localhost IIS)
And here is a sample from Postman which shows how the token is added to the request header:
Here is the response before the authorization token:
Once the authorization token is available, here is the response that is generated once I call the API indicated in the GET Section in the image above:
Also, here is the response headers after a successful authorization:
To sum it up, the #blockchain API requires #OAuth2 authentication token, this token isn’t passed using Swagger UI or the application you built, you need to modify your application to authenticate to AAD OAuth2 to obtain a Token from AzureAD, then you need to use this generated token in the request header to the API in order to call the API.
One additional tip, don’t select the default machine size while creating workbench, but choose better performance machines like: VM Size: Standard F2s_v2 (2 vcpus, 4 GB memory) ==> approx.. 50 USD per month .

We are currently experiencing an outage in South Central US
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/status/
Azure AD is also impacted.
You will want to monitor the Azure Status Page for further updates. Unfortunately we cannot do anything until the problem has been mitigated by engineering.
After the issue has been mitigated and if you are still seeing issues let us know.
I am currently trying to implement the use of the Acumatica REST APIs in a project I am working on. I am able to successfully log in to the application.
The issue is when I try to access additional data, customers for example, I receive the following message: {"message": "You have been logged out because your account has been disabled. Please contact your system administrator."} in the form of a 403 error.
I checked my account permissions and I do have the System Admin Role on the account I am using to log in to Acumatica. Below is a screen shot of my postman.
You probably have the admin user disabled.
Some function of Acumatica impersonate the admin user in order to complete their task. Some of these functionalities include the web services, the scheduler and the integration services.
Enabling the admin user should fix the issue you are facing.
Hi I'm trying to develop an for GSuite admin which enables to migrate their google drive data to another cloud service. But in the process of authentication i'm getting the below error.
{
"error": "unauthorized_client",
"error_description": "Client is unauthorized to retrieve access tokens using this method."
}
Below are the api's that are enabled in developer console.
1. Admin SDK
2. Contacts API
3. G Mail API
4. Calendar API
5. Drive API
Please guide me if done anything wrong in creating an app.
The main thing what i missed here is Authorizing my service account client ID with the GSUITE admin.
And I have been trying to generate access_token for the expired domain of mine.
After clearing all these i have to success in generating and getting user data.
This solution worked for me. I hope it works for you tooo....
Thank you community.
I am trying to make request to the Graph API using a service with no UI. I downloaded the following sample code and followed the instructions: https://blog.kloud.com.au/2015/12/14/implementing-application-with-o365-graph-api-in-app-only-mode/
I successfully get an Access Token, but when using it to make a request to get organization information (required Read Directory Data access), I get 403 Unauthorized.
I have registered my app in Azure AD (where I am a co-administrator).
I have specified Microsoft Graph in the 'permissions to other applications' section, and given Read Directory Data access.
Interestingly there is a note below saying 'You are authorized to select only delegated permissions which have personal scope'. Even though I clearly did. Why? I suspect this is the source of my problem.
Likewise I have checked my demo app against these instructions: https://graph.microsoft.io/en-us/docs/authorization/app_only, but it makes no mention of what role in Azure you need to have.
in this SO post's answer, there is mention of still needing to Consent. I haven't found any documentation about this.
You are authorized to select only delegated permissions which have personal scope
This issue is caused that the app is created by none admin and when they visit the portal then will see this message.
To grant the app-only permission to the application, we need to be the administrator of the tenant. It is different with the co-administrator. To user the Client Credential flow, I suggest that you contact the admin of the tenant to create an application for you. And if you were just for testing purpose, you can create a free tenant and register the application yourself.
Update
We need the assign the Global administrator director role as figure below to make the application works for the client credential flow:
