I am trying to submit a batch request to add objects via Open Graph Beta to a user's Timeline but no matter what I do I get this:
The action you're trying to publish is invalid because it does not specify any reference objects. At least one of the following properties must be specified: egg.
I am specifying an egg property though. My requests look like this:
https://graph.facebook.com/?batch=[{'method':'POST','relative_url':'/me/my_namespace:find','egg':'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mydomain.com%2Fmy_namespace%2Fog%2Fegg.php%3Ftypeid%3D-966','start_time':'1317439270','end_time':'1317439270'}]&access_token=<<snipped>>&method=post
I am sending egg as a url-encoded reference string to a URL that contains my open graph data -- the URL does work if I send it not as a batch but since when setting up a user's Timeline I will in some cases have to post up to 1000 actions I am trying to speed things up by batching them.
I was able to successfully delete via a batch request.
Instead of sending the 'egg' as a param of the batch object, you need to format this like a query string and send it in the body param.
Also, relative_url should not begin with a '/'
Try posting this instead...
https://graph.facebook.com/batch?access_token=TOKEN&method=post&batch=
[
{
"method": "post",
"relative_uri": "me/your_namespace:find",
"body": "egg=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mydomain.com%2Fmy_namespace%2Fog%2Fegg.php%3Ftypeid%3D-966&start_time= 1317439270&end_time= 1317439270
}
]
I've tested this and it works.
When Posting data to the batch API, the data must be formatted like a querysting and sent in the 'body' param as a string.

I have tried to create a record of my customized object through REST service in IBM Maximo.
The problem is that I created the record but I can't assign values to the attributes.
Next I will show what I did and what happened:
I have an Object Structure called oxidato that represents my customized object.
I did a POST using POSTMAN to this URL:
http://hostname:port/maximo/oslc/os/oxidato?lean=1
In the body section this is the JSON I was trying to send:
{
"attribute1":"205",
"attribute2":"206"
}
The record was created but none of the attributes was filled.
In my opinion, the REST service received the POST but can´t read the body.
What am I missing? I add an image of the POSTMAN as example:
EDIT1: I update the POST in order to use the newest API RES (Thanks Dex!)
EDIT2: I add an image of the header
I have found that Maximo will often ignore incoming attributes that aren't in the Maximo namespace (http://www.ibm.com/maximo). You could go through the trouble of setting up your VALOR1 and VALOR2 attributes to be in that namespace, but it's easier to just tell OSLC to ignore namespaces. You do that by setting the "lean" parameter to "1".
In your case, go to the "Params" tab and add an entry with a name of "lean". Give it a value of "1" and then send your POST again. You should see "?lean=1" appear at the end of the POST URL along the top there, but your body content should remain unchanged.
EDIT:
On the other hand, it looks like (based on your URL) that you aren't actually using the newer JSON/OSLC REST API; It looks like you are using the older REST services. This IBM page gives you a lot of information on the newer JSON REST API, including the correct URLs for it: https://developer.ibm.com/static/site-id/155/maximodev/restguide/Maximo_Nextgen_REST_API.html.
You should change your URL to /maximo/oslc/os/oxidato to use the newer API that naturally supports JSON and the lean parameter described above. This does required Maximo 7.6 to use though.
EDIT 2:
The attributes are often oddly case sensitive, requiring lowercase. Your example in your question of "attribute1" and "attribute2" are properly lowercase, but your screenshot shows uppercase attribute names. Try changing them to "valor1" and "valor2". Also, these are persistent attributes, right?
The response code received back (e.g. 200 - OK) and the response body will detail the record that was created.
I think you are correct in that the body of the post request is being ignored. Provided there are no required fields on the custom MBO your POST is probably creating an empty record with the next value in the sequence for the key field but you should see that in the response.
The following POST should create a record with values provided for attribute1 and attribute2 and provide a response with the record's identifier so that you can look it up in Maximo and show the values that were stored for attribute1 and attribute2:
http://hostname:port/maximo/rest/os/oxidato/?_format=json&_compact=1&attribute1=205&attribute2=206
Response: 200 OK
Reponse Body:
{ "CreateOXIDATOResponse": {
"rsStart": 0,
"rsCount": 1,
"rsTotal": 1,
"OXIDATOSet": {
"OXIDATO": {
"rowstamp": "[0 0 0 0 0 -43 127 13]",
"ATTRIBUTE1": "205",
"ATTRIBUTE2": "206",
"OXIDATOID": 13
}
} } }
You may also want to turn on debug logging for the REST interface in System Configuration -> Platform Configuration -> Logging for additional detail on what's happening in the log file.
We have stock website and we help buyers connect with the sellers. We are creating API to let buyers push their contact details and get back the seller details. This is transaction and get logged in our database. We have created following API:
The request is POST, the URL looks like:
/api/leads
The request body looks like:
{
"buyermobile": "9999999999",
"stockid": "123"
}
The response looks like:
{
"sellermobile" : "8888888888",
"selleraddress": "123 avenue park"
}
We have a new requirement, i.e. we need to send back PDF URL (instead of "sellermobile" & "selleraddress"). This PDF URL would contain the seller details in case it comes from one of our client.
We have modified the same API, now the request body looks like:
{
"buyermobile": "9999999999",
"stockid": "123",
"ispdf": true
}
The response looks like:
{
"sellerdetailspdf" : "https://example.com/sellerdetails-1.pdf",
}
Is it RESTFUL to do this? OR we should create separate API for getting response as PDF?
I wouldn't approach it this way. What happens when you need to add XLS? Do you add "isxls" to the request too?
Things I'd consider:
Use a mime type for content negotiation. Post the same request, and specify in the Accept header what you expect back - JSON, PDF, etc. You're then actually getting the report instead of a link to the report, which may or may not be better.
- or -
Include a link in the typical lead response.
{
"sellermobile" : "8888888888",
"selleraddress": "123 avenue park",
"_links": {
"seller-details-pdf": "https://example.com/sellerdetails-1.pdf"
}
}
- or -
Support a query parameter that specifies the type in the response.
- or -
Have a single property that specifies the type in the response, rather than a boolean. Much cleaner to extend when you add new response types.
The first two options have the bonus that you don't require clients to handle multiple response types to a single request. That's not forbidden by any spec, but it's annoying for clients. Try not to annoy the people who you want to pay you. :)
Again the implementation looks good to me, however you could potentially look at breaking the return of the PDF URL to another endpoint maybe something like api/lead/pdf that way your request body is the same for api/lead and all subsequent endpoints under /lead. Allowing your routes and other code to handle small portioned tasks instead of having a route that handles multiple flags and multiple code routes.
That looks good to me - the same type of input should give the same type of response but in your case you have two different types of input - one with the "ispdf" flag and one without. So it's consistent to responds with two different types of response, one with the PDF link and one without.
That's still something you'll want to document but basically it's a correct implementation.
I'm trying to use a service of DocuSign API in an abap project. I want to send a document to a specific email so it can be signed. But im getting the following error:
"errorCode": "INVALID_REQUEST_PARAMETER",## "message": "The request contained at least one invalid parameter. Query parameter 'from_date' must be set to a valid DateTime, or 'envelope_ids' or 'transaction_ids' must be specified.
I tried the following:

The api request to get the Baseurl is working fine. (I know the error is quite specific what the problem is, but i cant find any sources on the docusign api documentation that one of the mentioned parameters should be added to the request)
Thank you in regards
The error message seems to indicate that you're Posting to an endpoint that requires certain query string parameters -- but you're not specifying them as expected in the query string. I'd suggest you check the DocuSign API documentation for the operation you are using, to determine what query string parameters it requires, and then ensure that you're including those parameters in your request URL.
If you can't figure this out using the documentation, then I'd suggest that you update your post to clarify exactly what URL (endpoint) you are using for the request, including any querystring parameters you're specifying in the URL. You can put fake values for things like Account ID, of course -- we just need to see the endpoint you are calling, and what qs params you're sending.
To create an envelope, use
https://demo.docusign.net/restapi/v2/accounts/XXXXXX/envelopes
instead of
https://demo.docusign.net/restapi/v2/accounts/XXXXXX
Thank you for all the answers, i found the mistake. Creating the request wasn´t the problem. I was using the wrong "sending"-method -_-.
now its working :)

I'm running into a problem with adding a query to the callback URL. I'm getting an invalid URI scheme error attempting to authorize the following string:
https://www.linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=75df1ocpxohk88&scope=rw_groups%20w_messages%20r_basicprofile%20r_contactinfo%20r_network&state=7a6c697d357e4921aeb1ba3793d7af5a&redirect_uri=http://marktest.clubexpress.com/basic_modules/club_admin/website/auth_callback.aspx?type=linkedin
I've read some conflicting information in forum posts here. Some say that it's possible to add query strings to callbacks, and others say that it results in error.
If I remove ?type=linkedin, I can authorize just fine and receive the token. It would make my life so much easier if I could use a query string on the callback url, as I need to do some additional processing in the callback.
In short, can I append a query string to the end of the callback url?
For fun, I tried encoding the callback url in the request (obviously this is a no-no according to their documentation):
https://www.linkedin.com/uas/oauth2/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=75df1ocpxohk88&scope=rw_groups%20w_messages%20r_basicprofile%20r_contactinfo%20r_network&state=5cabef71d89149d48df523558bd12121&redirect_uri=http%3a%2f%2fmarktest.clubexpress.com%2fbasic_modules%2fclub_admin%2fwebsite%2fauth_callback.aspx%3ftype%3dlinkedin
This also resulted in an error but was worth a shot.
The documetation here: https://developer.linkedin.com/forum/oauth-20-redirect-url-faq-invalid-redirecturi-error indicates that you CAN use query parameters. And in the first request, it appears that I'm doing it correctly. Post #25 on this page - https://developer.linkedin.com/forum/error-while-getting-access-token indicates that you have to remove the query parameters to make it work
Anyone have experience with successfully passing additional query paramaters in the callback url for the linkedin API using oAuth2.0? If so, what am I doing wrong?
I couldn't wait around for the Linkedin rep's to respond. After much experimentation, I can only surmise that the use of additional query parameters in the callback is not allowed (thanks for making my application more complicated). As it's been suggested in post #25 from the question, I've tucked away the things I need in the "state=" parameter of the request so that it's returned to my callback.
In my situation, I'm processing multiple API's from my callback and requests from multiple users, so I need to know the type and user number. As a solution, I'm attaching a random string to a prefix, so that I can extract the query parameter in my callback and process it. Each state= will therefore be unique as well as giving me a unique key to cache/get object from cache..
so state="Linkedin-5hnx5322d3-543"
so, on my callback page (for you c# folks)
_stateString=Request["state"];
_receivedUserId = _stateString.Split('-')[2];
_receivedCacheKeyPrefix = _stateString.Split('-')[0];
if(_receivedCacheKeyPrefix == "Linkedin") {
getUserDomain(_receivedUserId);
oLinkedIn.AccessTOkenGet(Request["code"],_userDomain);
if (oLinkedin.Token.Length > 0) {
_linkedinToken = oLinkedin.Token;
//now cache token using the entire _statestring and user id (removed for brevity)
}
You not allowed to do that.
Refer to the doc: https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/oauth2
Please note that:
We strongly recommend using HTTPS whenever possible
URLs must be absolute (e.g. "https://example.com/auth/callback", not "/auth/callback")
URL arguments are ignored (i.e. https://example.com/?id=1 is the same as https://example.com/)
URLs cannot include #'s (i.e. "https://example.com/auth/callback#linkedin" is invalid)
I am trying to make some batch operations for custom objects that I have created oat Open graph API. I have seen tons of examples for feeds or images, but I still do not know if Facebook supports batch operations for custom objects. For example, I'd like to know if a batch operation for the following objects would work:
batch=[
{:method=>"post", :relative_url=>"/me/tfgtopquiz:win", "profile"=>"users/1/victories"}
{:method=>"post", :relative_url=>"/me/tfgtopquiz:guessed", "triviaquestion"=>"questions/1"} ]
Notice that I have custom types (triviaquestion). It seems that if I pass it as a parameter facebook ignores it, and I would need this information. After the request, I get this error message:
"The action you're trying to publish is invalid because it does not specify any reference objects. At least one of the following properties must be specified: triviaquestion."
I really tried to define the type "triviaquestion", but it looks like Facebook ignored it iside batch JSON.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
After some time I realized that I should send the JSON in other format:
{:access_token=>"MY_ACCESS_TOKEN",
:requests=>
[{:action=>"guessed", :object_type=>"triviaquestion", :object_url=>"URL"},
{:action=>"guessed", :object_type=>"triviaquestion", :object_url=>"URL"},
{:action=>"guessed", :object_type=>"triviaquestion", :object_url=>"URL"},
{:action=>"play", :object_type=>"correct_answer", :object_url=>"URL"}]}
Thanks!
