Branch.IO Unpopulated or Null Installs - branch.io

Im a student and just learning the ropes in particular using Branch. Does anyone know what Null or Unpopulated installs could mean, and why they started off with a count of 0 and suddenly increased?
Screenshot of branch.io dashboard:

You'll see Unpopulated data on the Dashboard if the corresponding field is not being attributed. Let's say you have a link(Quick Link or Ad Link) and have not mentioned analytical tags, then though the Installs/Events will get attributed to the link but the channel/campaign if you haven't mentioned will be Unpopulated.
On Branch's end you can utilise Dashboard's LiveView Feature to see the real-time data-flow to Branch Servers via SDK to verify the recording of particular Test App Install/Open. If you require more debugging with this please reach out to "support#branch.io"

Get vehicle registration details from apisetu.gov.in API

I am trying to implement a feature in my website where user can input the Vehicle's Registration Number and pull out the details of the vehicle and owner. Similar to https://jankari.loconav.com/rc
There is an API provided by the government of India to achieve this - https://ndh.digitallocker.gov.in/public/api/transport#/APIs/drvlc but there is no documentations involved. I am not even sure how to use it in postman. There are no options to generate an API key etc. When you click the "try" button it just shows you a pre-written json which gives error after you execute it. Can some help me find a way to build something similar to https://jankari.loconav.com/rc using the http://apisetu.gov.in
Thanks in advance

How to let only certain people test interal itunes connect testing

So this seems rather dumb I have to ask seeing as it's all over the itunes connect page. But my question is rather simple. I want to release a test flight version out but only allow certain people access to it. We need to test things on our dev server but don't want ALL of our testers using the dev server (they would get confused). When I go to Test Flight --> iOS --> (click on version) --> There's a Groups tab. And it lists the groups for this build to test on... okay. That's fine. Except there's no way to delete a group. I just want to submit a built to test flight and just allow certain people access to it. Is this possible?
UPDATE
Screenshot of what im talking about
Create a group for those specific users, and add their emails to the group. Make sure the group is selected in the left sidebar, by default it will show the list of users you just added...
But above the list you can choose the builds tab. Tap that and you will see this...
Tap the + sign and choose the build that you want to share with this group of users. If this is the first time you have shared this version of the app it may have to be approved for Beta testing by Apple.

Request for Existing Source Code on Defect Trend App

I started modifying/developing Rally apps about a week ago using the existing Rally apps provided on the Github repository so far. However, for one of my final tasks I've been asked to recreate a tailored Defect Trend Report App and unfortunately, the source code is not available for the App. I tried to start from scratch but I've ran into numerous errors and am a bit overwhelmed.
I was wondering if anyone had the src code for the app or knew of a way to extract the src code from the existing app. Of course if there is custom code that an individual has worked on that could also help me progress in this process and wouldn't mind sharing it, that'd also help a ton.
I saw that there were a few snippets that could be used from the Hackathon repo, but they're not quite on the mark of what I want to do with the app. I'm just trying to have the existing app filtered by delivery versions (currently filtered by iteration/release).
All help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks fellas!
There is an example of a 'bare metal' chart app in the App SDK 2.0 docs. It should give you the basics on how to do a chart.To get to it, go to the help pages (click on avatar in top right corner) and search for "Rally App SDK"
After that, you need to work out how to select defects from the various releases and do a count of each. There are two ways to do this:
Get all defects in the project you are in (don't forget whether you need to scope down to child projects too) and then do something like _.uniq() on the release field to find the list of releases (or do another request to get all the releases into a different store and use that for names and a count).
Get the releases and then for each release request the related defects.
If you do ask for child projects, you will need to handle all the scenarios of different releases for different projects - can get complicated!
#1 is effectively one big fetch, #2 may be many smaller ones.
You may want to decide whether to count all defects, sum the estimates, ignore those not finished, etc., etc.

Using the Rally API to re-rank multiple stories

I'd been looking at using the Rally API to create an app to do some simple auto-ranking stories based on specific criteria (at the request of / to help out a couple of our Product Owners) in a drag&drop workspace.
I did this by adjusting the "Rank" properties of the sequence of stories (I made sure to keep the rank values within the same overall min / max range as prior to the auto-reorder). I made a call to the API to update each story's rank individually (in quick succession).
Testing the app, I found that sometimes after running the auto-ranking app, some screens (such as the kanban board) would tell me that "drag and drop re-ranking is disabled for manual rank workspaces" (and the kanban would no longer let me drag & drop, although other screens such as the backlog would still let me drag & drop, and the workspace settings were still set to drag & drop). Deleting the stories, or reordering them on the backlog screen would return things back to normal.
After trying a few ideas to solve this, I figured perhaps if I was updating the Rank on a number of stories in quick succession, the back-end might be getting confused with these (potentially several / concurrent) requests. Introducing a delay between each story's API call has seemed to avoid the problem, and to speed things up, I now update a story's rank in the API only after the previous story's rank update has invoked the "updateComplete" function.
Do the assumptions in the last paragraph above make sense based on the backend ranking? Is there any Javascript API call to update multiple stories at once? (Otherwise I'm quite happy with the solution of only calling the API "update rank" after the prior API "rank update" call has returned ok).
That sounds like you discovered a possible issue with the backend ranking. The warning you were getting stems from the board trying to figure out which type of workspace you are in (manual or dnd rank). Since that setting is not currently available via WSAPI the board tries to figure it out based on its data and sometimes gets it wrong.
Currently there is no fully supported/documented way to adjust the ranks of items via WSAPI. The Card Board component in the App SDK uses special rankAbove and rankBelow query string parameters during update calls (which you can see in Firebug or the Chrome dev tools).
How are you currently setting the Rank values?

Commission Junction API for Local (Daily) Deals

Has anyone used Commission Junction's Product Catalog Search API for searching/fetching local deals? (BuyWithMe and KGBDeals post their deals to CJ)
There is a Yipit clone out there which uses this API. This clone was unable to categorize deals properly based on location. I was supposed to fix this issue. The problem I saw is: API's response does not contain location/city info. Therefore, deals cannot be categorized based on cities. This basically kills the purpose of local deals.
I am looking for advice from anyone who has done similar work using CJ API. May be I am missing something.
OneBigPlanet has an All-In-One API filled with all affiliate networks and daily deal providers for U.S & Canada
If you are going to use a deal aggregator API for your site/blog, you may want to take a look at this one as well.
SideBuy has recently released its version 1 API which lets the user (like yourself) connect to its comprehensive set of daily deals using several parameters to fully customize the listings. I suggest you check it out and get in touch in SideBuy's site if you need further assistance.
