I'm trying to get list of all the youtube channel, but I'm facing some problem. I didn't know what I'm doing wrong.
I'm sending request something like this
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?key=AIzaSyASLgZm6GzeRzIhnEW8SAvuhiwerDSGDaeweBg&part=snippets
You have provide one of these parameters in the request forUsername or mySubscribers or managedByMe or categoryId or idParam or id or mine along with part.
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=snippet&forUsername=test&key=[YOUR_API_KEY]
the part parameter specifies only channel resource properties like these
auditDetails,
brandingSettings,
contentDetails,
contentOwnerDetails,
id,
invideoPromotion,
localizations,
snippet,
statistics,
status,
topicDetails
so use snippet instead of snippets, that might also be a reason why the API call fails

I'm trying to send xAPI statements from an "Activity Provider" to the ADL LRS live demo. The goal is to implement this from my C# .NET application, but I was having trouble implementing it so I tried running a simple POST request from JMeter.
I do get a 200 response, but when I try to check whether the statement was successfully stored at https://lrs.adlnet.gov/me/statements, it's empty.
Am I completely misunderstanding how this structure is supposed to work? I'm going to install the ADL LRS eventually for testing purposes, but I wanted to get the actual request structure worked out first.
The path looks incorrect, the POST should be to {endpoint}/statements, so in your case it looks like it should be https://lrs.adlnet.gov/xAPI/statements. Additionally you should make sure you are setting the X-Experience-API-Version header. If this doesn't solve the issue, you should look at more than just the response status code, and see what the body contains (and add it to your question). The body for the type of request you are sending should return JSON, with an array with a single statement identifier in it. Additionally when you retrieve the statements the URL you use should match the one that you specify when you send, so /me/ is not correct.
If it is a basic C# .NET project you may be interested in https://github.com/RusticiSoftware/TinCan.NET. It is showing its age, but in general for a number of projects it will still work or would at least be a reasonable place to start.
I feel I must be doing something wrong in the API. I am following the weather example with a missing location. The story works fine.
However when I use the API over http using postman for testing purposes I cannot get it to raise the action after sending back the location from the user, It always returns a stop message. I think I must be not sending the correct context across or similar.
My understanding is as follows:
send across message 'I want to know the weather'
raises action from wit: 'Weather' (works correctly)
Respond with 'missingLocation'
wit replies with msg 'Which location do you want to know the weather for?' (works correctly)
I respond with 'Paris' in the message (no context all with same session)
wit replies with finding the entity 'Paris' but a 'stop' and no action. Here I would expect to get an action request again with everything I need to know this time. This is what happens when I use the story and test using the bot messenger.
Any ideas from anyone? I expect I need to respond with something more than just 'Paris' in the message
Thanks.

i'm trying to follow the example code on google's website here, but it seems a little broken - the javascript references getting a list of people from the server, but in the server-side code there's no reference to calling those functions of the api, it just returns an HTTP status code and a text status, so i'm wondering if there's a step missing and i'm exchanging the wrong code at the wrong time.
my current flow is
login button button clicked, magic happens, my callback gets passed an object with a whole bunch of properties in it
I take the code property from that object, and post it back to my server in an ajax request
on my server, i run the following python, where auth_code_from_js is the data of my post request:
oauth_flow = client.flow_from_clientsecrets('client_secrets.json', scope='')
credentials = oauth_flow.step2_exchange(auth_code_from_js)
python throws a FlowExchangeError with the message invalid request and no other useful information
am i missing a step? is that initial 'code' property what i'm supposed to be passing in to the 'step2_exchange' method?
I am making a GET request to the following url:
http://testsurveys.com/surveys/demo-survey/?collector=10720
and the request works fine. The point is to assign collector ID 10720 to the survey. There is absolutely no issue with this request. However, when I add another parameter the collector ID is passed through as a get parameter but it does nothing. For example:
http://testsurveys.com/surveys/demo-survey/?code=123456&collector=10720
Why does the collector parameter work in the first scenario but not in the second?
That would depend on the code in your backend. There's nothing wrong with the second request. The fact that the parameters do get through to the other end is evidence of this. Try looking at your backend code and see why it isn't being processed properly. Were you coding it with any assumptions in mind that you ended up changing later? If you don't find anything, include the code in your question.
I am implementing a REST API Framework, and I wonder what the recommendedbehavior is, when a client submits an invalid querystring parameter.
I will illustrate what I mean with a specific example:
Say, I have an API handler on the /api/contacts/ endpoint, and the handler provides a querystring filter named id, which enables clients to select certain contacts with the provided IDs.
So, a GET or DELETE request could be /api/contacts/?id=2&id=4&id=lalalala.
Clearly, there is no such thing as a Contact with id=lalalala. In this case, what should the server behave like?
Ignore the invalid Contact with id=lalalala, and only filter the contacts on the valid ids, 2 and 4.
Respond with an error code that indicates this error. If yes, which error code should be provided?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: To clarify; The main focus of the framework I develop, is having a predictable behavior and hence response codes. For this reason, I want the clients consuming an API built on this framework, to expect the least possible surprises.
So, the question basically is: Should the API return an error in this case(and if yes, which)? Or ignore invalid filter entries, and only filter on the correct querystring parameters?
Since this is a REST call, we are talking about resources. And whenever we have a wrong filter, we should return a proper error code.
In this case i would go for 400 - bad request as the resource was found and correctly mapped (/api/contacts), but there was a problem with the query string part. Therefore a 400 and not a 404.
Would return a 404 if someone requested /api/contacts-all or some non-existant resource.
EDIT based on comments below
Agree to your comment. Ideally a 400 is a problem with the request. Going by that, you could use a 422 Unprocessable Entity. Please look at the stackoverflow link below and it talks about the same thing.
I would guess that developers around the world would be more comfortable seeing a 400 than 422 for such logical errors due to the fact that bigger companies are using 400 and not 422.
References:
Http status codes and
400 for logical error vs malformed request
Following the letter of the law, the response should be a 404 Not found. However, nobody is going to get too upset with you if you prefer to return 400 - bad request.
I would definitely return a 4XX status code though. You want the client to know that they made an error.
