I'm running into an issue with the Podio App Create API call:
https://developers.podio.com/doc/applications/add-new-app-22351
It does not appear to respect external_id for fields.
For example, given:
...
[fields] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[type] => text
[external_id] => title
[config] => Array
(
[label] => Name
...
The resulting field will have an external id of "name" and not "title".
This is a rather big issue as when trying to make exact copies of apps (into places that clone won't go), the change in field ids causes GF flows to break.
Any way around this?
Per the API documentation there is no "external_id" input in this call. The external IDs are always a standardized version of the field label though. (e.g. if you have 2 Name fields the first will be "name" and the second will be "name-2").
Alternatively, you could just run "get app" https://developers.podio.com/doc/applications/get-app-22349 to see what the external IDs ended up being.

I need to search for a text within a particular workspace. I need all items and fields, except comments.
I'm using php-wrapper for Podio API and Search in space function:
$attributes = array(
"query" => $query,
"ref_type" => "item", // I need just items, not tasks, statuses etc.
"search_fields" => "title"
);
$items = PodioSearchResult::space( $space_id, $attributes );
If search_fields parameter will be removed, it will search not only in titles, but in all fields. However, it will also search in comments left for each item and return that items as a result. But I need just results based on fileds values.
Of course, it is possible to list all the fields needed in search_fields. But there is a dozen of apps with a dozen of different fields each in that space. Moreover, fields could be added, edited or removed by workspace users. So it looks like a very rough and hard-coded solutiuon to list all the fields.
Is there another way to avoid comments in search results?
Podio doesn't have specific method to avoid only comments. But instead of hardcoding all the fields, you can query dynamically "Get app values" call and use the result in "search_fields".
I recently started experimenting with the REST API for SharePoint 2013 Foundation and I am trying to return all entries in a list. My GET request returns the data I am looking for, but the IDs used to identify the columns in the list are not helpful for identifying what the information is (see images below). The column IDs between 'Title' and 'ID', in the second image, are a jumble of characters.
SharePoint List View
Response Data
Is there any way to configure the list to use the column names as IDs? Also, is there some significance to the characters currently used as IDs?
You will need to make a second request to get a listing of columns that includes the InternalName and the Title which is what you are trying to reference:
You can use this REST call:
_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('Project Details')/fields
or you can use CSOM:
using (ClientContext context = new ClientContext(url))
{
List list = context.Web.Lists.GetByTitle("Project Details");
context.Load(list, l => l.Fields);
context.ExecuteQuery();
foreach(Field field in list.Fields)
{
Console.WriteLine(field.Title);
Console.WriteLine(field.InternalName);
}
}
SharePoint automatically generates the InternalName and it is a read-only field, at least using REST. It'll be easier to get the Field Data to correlate the InternalName to the Title than changing the values.
The column you are referring to, between Title and Id, is the ID of the content type associated to the item. It is not a column ID.
The SharePoint REST API is OData compliant, so you can use the $select parameter to query for the neccesary fields.
http://server/site/_api/web/lists('guid')/items?$select=Column1,Column2
Please be aware though, lookup fields need to be expanded as well, otherwise you get only the Id of the lookup item.
http://server/site/_api/web/lists('guid')/items?$select=LookupColumn&$expand=LookupColumn/Title
So I want to get all listed items ID's for authenticated user.
To do this I use Trading API GetMyeBaySelling method
Example request:
[ActiveList] => Array
(
[Include] => true
[Pagination] => Array
(
[EntriesPerPage] => 200
[PageNumber] => 89
)
[Sort] => StartTime
)
It works well until I hit magic page 125. Every page after 126, 127, 128, ... returns me 125th page.
So I can get only 25,000 listings. I don't see it mentioned anywhere in documentation.
I also found other people have same/similar issue
Is there any other option to get selelr listing IDs?
Edit: I also asked a question on ebaydev forums
I tried to load 125 pages sorted by time ASC, then load another 125 sorted by time DESC but it doesnt work. Also I am getting this error

[ShortMessage] => Data is truncated.
[LongMessage] => Partial data or invalid summary data is returned due to system limit. Please narrow your requested data and try again.

I found answer already.

I need to fill an input box with a first name and last name. The user will press "Randomize" and it will pull a random first and last name and fill the inputs.
My question is I'm not sure if I should put the names in tables (firstNames, lastNames) or just store them in a javascript file and pull straight from that.
I'm trying to follow the Single Responsibility Principle so I'm inclined to choose the former, but then I have two more models, two more seeders, two more tables, and probably a class to pull all that together. And then do I fill from a CSV file or just from a manually populated seeder? It seems like a lot of work and extra files for a 1-time use.
I know I'll get crap for this being an opinion based question but there is no one or where else to ask.
Also if you know of a place to ask these kind of questions that won't get me ripped apart I'd appreciate that.
I would suggest using the Faker PHP library. That way you wouldn't have to create extra tables, models, or have to worry about finding yourself fake data.
To install it in your project, simply add the dependency in your composer.json file. and run a composer update.
"require-dev": {
"fzaninotto/faker": "1.3.*#dev"
},
Then you can use it to create fake first and last names for you (in your controller most likely)
$faker = Faker\Factory::create();
$firstName = $faker->firstName;
$lastName = $faker->lastName;
Edit:
To add your own names you can either edit or override the name provider file located here.
I would like to suggest Fakerino a new fake generator PHP library, with a modern approach, easy to extend with custom data, custom fake data class, or pre-configured groups of data.
https://github.com/niklongstone/Fakerino
<?php
include ('../Fakerino/vendor/autoload.php');
use Fakerino\Fakerino;
$fakerino = Fakerino::create();
echo $fakerino->fake('Surname')->toJson(); //["Donovan"]
echo $fakerino->fake('NameFemale'); //Alice
//with configuration
$fakerino = Fakerino::create('./conf.php');
print_r($fakerino->fake('fake1')->toArray());
/*
Array(
[0] => Arthur
[1] => Doyle
)
*/
//conf.php
<?php
$conf['fake'] = array(
'fake1' => array('NameMale', 'Surname' => null),
'fake2' => array('NameFemale', 'Surname' => null)
);
I need to be able to store something like this:
where the green is a template type, the gray is a field container type, and the white is field. (That being, a field has a label and some text, both mediumtext for simplicity; and a field container can store other field containers or text, and a template is a top-level field.)
Now, let's say I want to allow users to create any number of these structures, but it is unlikely to be more than say 10. And, of course, we need to be able to link data to it.
This is all to be able to store in a database an associative array that looks for the above like, in pseudo code:
my_template = {
page_info => { description => 'hello!!!' },
id => 0,
content => { background_url => '12121.jpg', text => ...
}
Having an easy way to add a field to all data using the template when the template changes (say, we add a keywords to page_info) would be a big plus.
I can't figure this out at all, thanks a lot!
There are several different ways to store heirarchical data structures (trees) in MySQL. You can for example choose:
Adjacency list
Nested sets
Path enumeration
Closure table
See Bill Karwin's presentation for more details on the pros and cons of each.
