Here Maps Blank Squares Unauthorized - passwords

When loading hear maps on our site some of the squares are blank and then looking at the url for the square the following is returned
error: Unauthorized
error_description: This is not a valid app_id and app_code pair. Please verify that the values are not swapped between the app_id and app_code and the values provisioned by HERE (either by your customer representative or via http://developer.here.com/myapps) were copied correctly into the request.
The other squares load so the key is working, anyone know why this is happening?

Is there any way to get a Bearer token now, since Robinhood has changed the API again?

We keep playing this cat and mouse game with Robinhood.com. I have a trading app which used to trade stocks with Robinhood, but they keep changing the unsupported unofficial API to make it difficult for traders to use. I know that many people are doing the same thing and I want to reach out to them to see if there is a new answer. The latest problem is when I try to get a Bearer token using the URL https://api.robinhood.com/oauth2/token/ the API returns the following JSON: {"detail":"This version of Robinhood is no longer supported. Please update your app or use Robinhood for Web to log in to your account."}. This started happening on 4/26/2019.
Has anyone found a work around for this, yet, or have they finally beaten us into submission?
A more complete solution (not need browser):
Use requests.session.
Obtain the login page by making a GET request to "https://robinhood.com/login".
At this point the session's cookies will contain 'device_id'.
Obtain this device_id and use it in making the oauth2 token request to "https://api.robinhood.com/oauth2/token/" also add in the data request "challenge_type" (either "sms" or "email").
This request will fail with a 400 error code. Robinhood will send an SMS message or Email with a temporary (5 minute) code.
Also at this point use the 400 response's body to get "id" from "challenge" inside of the JSON object.
Confirm the challenge by making a POST request to "https://api.robinhood.com/challenge/CHALLENGEID/respond/" where CHALLENGEID is the same id mentioned in the first failed /oauth2/token/ POST request.
Make the same POST request to "https://api.robinhood.com/oauth2/token/" and include in the header "X-ROBINHOOD-CHALLENGE-RESPONSE-ID" with the value CHALLENGEID.
You can reuse a device_id with user/pass after this even after logging out.
Be cautious with storing device_id as it is the result of user/pass login and successful SMS/email 2FA.
Just got it working. At the risk of them seeing this post and changing it more, here we go:
First, you're going to want to log into your RH account in a web browser
View Source on the page, and look for clientId - it should be a big hex number separated by dashes
Add that number to your POST requests to /oauth2/token under the field device_token
There's probably another way to retrieve the device token, and I'm not even sure it's unique, but that way should work.
Good to be back here after a very long time.
Not sure if anyone is still looking for answers to this, but I have a very simple solution.
At Robinhood's login screen, enter your username/email and your password, press F12 on your keyboard to bring up the console panel and switch to the "Network" tab then wait for the page to load completely. (During this time you will see a list of items being loaded rapidly depending on the connection speed.)
At this time you can keep clearing the list by clicking on the button highlighted in the below image.
Click on button highlighted repeatedly until the list is empty
Now, log into your Robinhood account. At this point your console should display a list similar to the one shown below.
Look for the name "token/", most likely it will be the second one you get all the information you need. And this information will be under the Headers then Request Payload
I was able to find this with past knowledge and experience of web scraping for fun. And also, I needed to know this as well, since I recently started doing trades via Robinhood.
Hope this help you curious ones out there.
For my Robinhood account I am using Google Authenticator for my 2FA. What I have so far is that I send the original call that I was sending before to https://api.robinhood.com/oauth2/token/. This is giving me a response of:
{"mfa_required":true,"mfa_type":"app"}
I then repeat my oauth token request, but this time providing the value from Google Authenticator (so my GUI has to prompt me to fill it in) with this payload in the request to https://api.robinhood.com/oauth2/token/:
{"grant_type":"password","scope":"internal","client_id":"c82SH0WZOsabOXGP2sxqcj34FxkvfnWRZBKlBjFS","expires_in":86400,"device_token":"***","username":"***","password":"****","mfa_code":"***"}
and then I am getting an access token in reply

Amazon S3 - does root user have access to buckets?

I am testing S3 calls using DHC REST client in Chrome. In these tests, the Authorization is all based on my root user credentials.
I can do a GET with //mybucket.s3.amazonws.com, and a list of the items in mybucket is returned.
If I add an item to retrieve (//mybucket.s3.amazonws.com/myitem), I always get 403 Forbidden.
I thought that the root user had automatic access to the objects, but am I wrong about that?
I took screen prints of both tests, which I'll supply if needed.
After some further monkeying around, I found my answer. Yes, the AWS root user can access individual items. But the Authorization header string changes. When you retrieve an object, that object's key participates in the calculation of the auth string. Thus, the same string used to retrieve the bucket list does not work when retrieving an object.

Amazon Product Advertising API Scratchpad not working

So I've just been fighting shadows in the Amazon labyrinth. Went to use the Amazon Product Advertising API Scratchpad to test out my Access Key Id and Secret Access Key, as well as entering the Associate Tag which isn't used in critically in the API query, just important if you want credit for the query later.
I kept getting the following error, no matter how many times I went and created a new set of keys or verified them in the download section of the AWS Management Console for the root user - IAM users don't work in the API seemingly.
Error! SignatureDoesNotMatch
HTTP Status 403: Forbidden
The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your AWS Secret Access Key and signing method. Consult the service documentation for details.
Rinse and repeat. Many, many times. Complete and utter frustration....
Lo and behold, I come across this oasis of sanity - Signed Request Helper - which provides a successful result to my query with the same keys as used above.
So, can anyone else confirm problems with the Scratchpad that didn't bear out in other applications, like the Signed Request Helper or their own code? At this point I'm betting that there is a bug in the Amazon Scratchpad. I guess I will go roll something to test in Python but the apparent craziness of the URL construction makes me wary. Seemingly it's soo hard even the Amazon guys got it wrong...
Yes, this reminds me of the dark days I had trying to get the signature just right.
I too had similar troubles when I started playing with the API. Ultimately, I ended up using the master credentials. This link will take you to the right spot after you login. Open the "Access Keys" tab. This is the area I made a new master access key for signing requests. When you get into the users/groups/roles/policies, I had trouble.
But I have a key there and I can use the scratchpad no problem. I have an application running that uses the key, but I just went and tried a query to confirm it's all still good.
Note that in the scratchpad the Associate Tag is irrelevant like you said. To get the error you have, it's for sure the SECRET ACCESS KEY that is incorrect. If you entered the ACCESS KEY ID field incorrectly, you would get this error:
Error! InvalidClientTokenId HTTP Status 403: Forbidden The AWS Access
Key Id you provided does not exist in our records.
For others who may come across this, let me impart my findings. Importantly, I was able to verify the keys with the Signed Request Helper but wasn't able to get the query to work in the Scratchpad. The error received clearly informs me that it is the signature that is wrong:
Error! SignatureDoesNotMatch HTTP Status 403: Forbidden The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your AWS Secret Access Key and signing method. Consult the service documentation for details.
So one ponders, as instructed, on the Secret Key and the signing method. Since one is using the scratchpad, it must be the key. But the same key works in the signed request helper! What to do.
It turns out that the error was in one of the supplied parameters. If the scratchpad produces a signed url with a faulty parameter, it will result in that error. There is some validation going on, but you can still wind up with a bad parameter. So, if you get the above error, try a simple query with your key to prove that your secret access key is valid, then start investigating your supplied parameter values.

OpenGraph API User Object Sometimes Returns Link that 404s

In my application I allow users to connect their Facebook accounts via oauth for the purpose of posting via our interface. We support both page accounts and regular accounts that simply manage pages.
We also inspect the result of the opengraph API call to get a valid URL to their profile, or page. The primary endpoint we use is https://graph.facebook.com/me (with oauth credentials). For some page-only accounts, the returned object has a 'link' value that, when entered into a web browser, 404s.
The bad URLs I have seen fall into two distinct cases:
The URL can be of the form 'www.facebook.com/{page_id}' which 404s on some pages, but not others.
The URL can be of the form 'www.facebook.com/profile.php?id={user_id}' which more often than not 404s.
The only URL format I have seen that works for all accounts is www.facebook.com/profile.php?id={page_id}. In the first case, we detect that the 'link' field isn't of the proper form (using profile.php?id=...), and construct a URL with the proper structure, and it works.
My next heuristic I'm considering adding is to see if the URL is of the proper form....but uses the {user_id} as the id argument to profile.php, and just construct the URL using the {page_id}. Obviously, this is getting ridiculous.
So, is there a good way to know if an account will give back a link that is invalid? Is this a bug in the API? What is the most reliable way to, given a User on the open graph API, to get a working link to their profile/page?
Using 'www.facebook.com/{page_id}' or 'www.facebook.com/profile.php?id={user_id}' will always work - they are both the same. The only reason you'll see a 404 is if the Page has been unpublished / deleted or if the user has deactivated their account.

Http 500 Internal Server Error with Amazon Product Advertising API

I am trying the Amazon Product Advertising API, following their tutorial here.
Before doing any coding, I am attempting to follow the tutorial and use the Signed Requests Helper form online to prove the concept. I enter in my Access Key ID and Secret Access Key, and then enter in the following in the Unsigned URL box:
_http://ecs.amazonaws.com/onca/xml?Service=AWSECommerceService
&Version=2010-11-01
&Operation=ItemSearch
&SearchIndex=Books
&Keywords=harry+potter
I copy and paste the contents of Signed URL box into my browser's address bar (with correct access key and signature):
_http://ecs.amazonaws.com/onca/xml?AWSAccessKeyId=[MY_ACCESS_KEY]&Keywords=harry%20potter&Operation=ItemSearch%0D&SearchIndex=Books%0D&Service=AWSECommerceService%0D&Timestamp=2011-05-30T07%3A56%3A17.000Z&Version=2010-11-01%0D&Signature=[MY_SIGNATURE]
In return I get a HTTP 500 Internal Server Error.
(Note I have inserted the unscore before both example hyperlinks as stackoverflow won't allow more than 2 hyperlinks for newbies.)
I've tried IE8, and Chrome, and have also tried the .co.uk domain as I reside in the UK. I have also looked at the AWS forum with no luck. Any help would be appreciated...
I have tried generating Signed URL with the page you linked to using my Access Key ID and Secret Access Key and I do get the correct response.
One thing I noticed is that your signed URL contains an extra character (%0D - newline character?) ending some of your request parameters values. Were these characters been added when you copied the sample URL in the unsigned URL input? Please try fixing the unsigned URL until these characters do not show up in the signed URL box, then try that signed URL again.
