I'm really new to this community. But anyway I got to call an external api (a paypal api) through Tibco and have absolutely no idea how to do it. I've been on this for days but to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank yall so much in advance :)
What kind of service external API is exposing? If it is REST service, you can use REST/JSON palette with Invoke REST API or Send HTTP Request.
If it is SOAP, there is different approach in place.
But what you need to acquire is service specification (ideally sample request and endpoint). Share details and maybe I can help more.

I really hope you can help me. I have a project to create an app. I will use Power apps, Python and JavaScript. I need to be in it, because I am not. So my first step is create an API, I have decided to use Azure Function I can explain why. It helps connect my Power Apps(frontend, where i am going to use JavaScript) to backend(Python).
So I have absolutely nothing and I have decided to create an API with Azure Functions, the truth is i dont really know how it works. I can connect it with VScode, but the main question how to create own API? I dont need to pay for servis because I have an Azure Functions which is paid. But I dont really understand how API has too look. I have find a lot information but i cant connect it with what I need.
I need to write my own code for API? Like from empty file? Can do it in VS code and connect it with Azure Functions? What has to be in API I mean my own piece of code or something another? Have anyone created his own API in Azure Functions?
thank you for answering my stupid questions
You can create the Http Trigger in Azure Function if your own API works on HTTP protocol and modify the default Http Trigger API Code according to your requirement.
If your API contains 3rd party APIs, you can create the Http client inside the function code for sending HTTP requests on to the available 3rd party APIs in your function code.
There are plenty of articles on connecting the Azure Functions to Power BI Apps where you can write your own AP code using REST API signature following swagger and add that custom API in Power Apps.
Refer to this article that provides the use case of connect the Azure Function with custom API Code to Power App, given by Carlos Aguilar.
In my project requirement, We need to distribute the load between two different micro services but call of the two microservices are not based on the endpoint(URL) but it is calling via it's SDK-Client.
Can we customize either of Netflix ribbon or Spring Cloud Gateway to achieve it or is there any other solution for this?

Any feedback are greatly appreciated, Thanks a lot in advance!!!
I am trying to implement account aggregation solution and am confused right now as there are multiple API's available that do the same thing.
I came across new Yodlee API as well as RESTful Wrapper APIs'. Both of these API classifications do the same thing but provide different APIs sets.
Can someone please let me know which one should I use?
I am referring to this link
https://developer.yodlee.com/API_Resources/API_Reference
Please go with Yodlee APIs, which is our latest product.
This is purely REST and the API response is simple, informative and decluttered. Here Webhooks is also supported
Please refer- https://developer.yodlee.com/Yodlee_API
API Flow- https://developer.yodlee.com/Yodlee_API/API_Flow/Add_Account_With_ProviderAccount
Swagger tool( to test APIs)- https://developer.yodlee.com/apidocs/index.php#!/providerAccounts
Hope this helps you in getting started.

Your documentation(API Reference) mentions some fields/endpoints deprecated but they still work in the old style. I find document inconsistent.
Also i could not even find a support email where i could even mail about this problem.
I would appreciate if you consider these points.
Thanks
I have a WCF REST service. Now the question is how can I secure my REST service so no one can use/call it? and what would be the best way to call it (e.g. using jquery, or from code behind)? the client application is on MVC 3.
please help and advise
Many Thanks
Not sure if you're still looking for a solution. But I used WCFRESTContrib as a basis for my project for the security features, among other things. It's very easy to setup Basic Authentication on the entire service, or on an individual basis for each service method. They have a full description on it here. If you don't decide to use the project, it should at least give you a good understanding on how it works with WCF REST api's.
I am trying to use sample FedEx Web Service code written in VB.NET to retrieve shipping rates.
The call returned rate information, but it returned rates that are way too high and do not match those shown on their web site for the same shipping parameters.
Their support team is willing to investigate the discrepancy if I can provide them the XML data, SOAP transaction I presume, but I do not know how to get at this.
Can someone help?
I have used Fiddler in the past for monitoring http requests/responses. You may give this a try but i suggest you revisit the sample just to check it's logic. It could be as simple as a datatype issue or just missing some zeros at the end or you might be sending some wrong parameter.
I think Web service Studio 2.0 can help you in this.. It can display XML & SOAP request responses and WSDL bindings of the given webservice.
And there is an codeplex alternative to test even WCF services .. Just give a try..
One way to do this would be to just sniff the connection using WireShark (free download, wireshark.org).
From this, you could view the entire transaction between client and server, and see what it was sending.
SoapUI is your friend, here.
You could use fiddler or the WCF tracing tool:
