You are using an outdated API.
KuCoin switched to TradingView as its chart software. This is why you have https://www.kucoin.com/#/trade.pro/LTC-BTC as the default view for trading. You can still access the old view via https://www.kucoin.com/#/trade/LTC-BTC.
Looks like the API call you are using was made for the old version.
Use this URL instead:
https://api.kucoin.com/v1/open/chart/history
Working URL:
https://api.kucoin.com/v1/open/chart/history?symbol=LTC-BTC&type=1hour&from=1517446866&to=1518311025&limit=1000
For more information about the new API call: (notice how it says tradingview-version!)

How do I use/read an api documentation to send a simple request?

I know this is probably strictly case-specific, but I do feel like I encounter this problem a lot so I will make an effort to try and understand it better.
I am new to using APIs, but I have never succeeded in using one without copying someone's code. In this case, I can't even find any examples on forums, nor in the API documentation.
I'm trying to pull my balance value from my investment bank "NordNet" to scroll, amongst other things, on an Arduino display I've made. Right now I use python Selenium to automatically but "physically" login to NordNet and grab my balance from the DOM. As I'm afraid I might get "punished" for such botted behavior, and because the script is fairly high maintenance (as the HTML changes over time), I would obviously much rather get this information through NordNet's new API.
Link to NordNets API doc
Every time I try to utilize an API doc it's always the same, it looks easy, but I can never get it to work.
This time I tried to just play a little with the API before exploring further.
I use PostMan to send the simplest request:
https://www.nordnet.se/api/2
And I get a successful code 200 JSON response.
I then try to take it a step further to access my account data using this endpoint:
https://www.nordnet.se/api/2/accounts
For this one, I obviously need some authentication of some sort
The doc looks like this:
So I set my PostMan client up like this and get the response showcased:
I've put my NordNet login into the "Auth" tab as "basic auth" and I then see PostMan encrypts this info some way, in the "Headers" tab.
I'm getting an unauthorized response code and I have no idea why. Am I using PostMan wrong (probably)? Is the API faulty (probably not)? There is a mention of a session_id that should contain both password and username? Maybe something completely else...
I hope you can help
The documentation says to use session_id as username and password for that api ,
so try logging in and then get the session id (try with both sid and ssid) . from network tab and pass it as username and password for authorization .
sid- is for http and ssid for https i guess , try with both

Synology FileStation API

Hi I am trying to synology api to download a file, it seems that the API documentation is outdated,
I successfuly login and logut using the API,
but when I tried to use this api call
http://myds.com:5000/webapi/entry.cgi?api=SYNO.FileStation.Info&version=1&method=getinfo
the response sends error 103, "Method do not exists".
According with the documentation, first, you have to retrive the cgi path,in my case is "entry.cgi".
then you know that part of the api direction
/webapi/?api=&version=&method=[&][&_sid=]
According with the error 103 the (in this case is getinfo) doesn't exists, but the documentation tells other thing.. and it's driving me crazy
https://global.download.synology.com/download/Document/Software/DeveloperGuide/Package/FileStation/All/enu/Synology_File_Station_API_Guide.pdf
Someone has used Synology api recently? I need to figure out how to use the SYNO.FileStation.Download api call.
I'm afraid you will need to look into the code of the filestation php files.
Here are some impressions of how this was done for the PhotoStation:
https://gist.github.com/anthonydahanne/4583444
https://blog.jbowen.dev/synology/photostation/getting-started/get-api-info/
Similar to PhotoStation I would first search for the info-method to check what the API is supposed to offer.
I just happened to come across your thread, have you tried viewing the APIs available on your Diskstation? You can do that by calling
http://<YourDiskstationURL:Port>/webapi/query.cgi?api=SYNO.API.Info&version=1&method=query&quer%20y=all
I have a function that looks like the successor to the download function:
{"maxVersion":2,"minVersion":1,"path":"entry.cgi","requestFormat":"JSON"}
,"SYNO.FileStation.Download":
In the API-documentation Synology suggests to check whether a specific API is available or if it has changed.

Endpoint with Google Flex env

There is bit of a confusion, wondering if somebody can help me with this.
Here is an example which is a year old and uses goapp with polymer and endpoint
https://github.com/googlesamples/cloud-polymer-go
Here is a recent example using gcloud
https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/golang-samples/tree/master/appengine_flexible/endpoints
Both are different as google changed its approach.
As per second example, I am able to create endpoint functions which uses json for input and output. However there are 2 problems
1st. It is throwing error if I put functions in different file under same package. It works when I run go run .go. but then I dont understand how app.yaml come into picture. I think this url /_ah/spi/. should work
2nd. I am using postman app to check the request and response from endpoint. Is there a better way? I thought google does provide a platform to test endpoint.
Is there any example which implements examples similar to 1st one with new libraries?
looking forward for your help. Thanks.

Jira V6.0+ creating a project over REST API

I've got a problem: I'm working on an external webinterface for my company and we use Atlassians JIRA as a project issue and tracking method. I am trying to connect our webinterface over the REST API. After a short research I found out, that Atlassian never implemented the possibility to create a new JIRA Project over their REST API. Well, that isn't that true, they've implemented it in the actual version (7.0) because they migrated their other two APIs to one REST API. Now comes my problem: We are currently unable to upgrade from version 6.4.4 to version 7.0.0. After a second search I found a workaround for this problem. You can find it here:
The real problem is that this workaround isn't working or I'm doing it wrong.
I've already tried it with a GET request and the given arguments as parameters and over the normal POST method with a JSON body in it.
What's my problem?
Here some more informations: When I try it over GET, I always receive the normal response for the URL (it returns a list with all available templates). When I try it over POST with a JSON body (this is by the way the normal method for the normal functions of the REST API) I get back a HTTP-Error 415 Unsupported media type.
it would be nice if someone could test this workaround with a 6.0+ version of JIRA
So after some months I got it by myself. You have to make a POST request with the following header fields:
Content-Type=application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8
Authorization=Basic {set your credentials as a Base64-String: "user:password"}
X-Atlassian-Token=nocheck
Once done you can set your POST-Parameters to the following:
name=Name of the Project
key=Key of the Project
lead=Leader of the Project
keyEdited=true (don't change it!)
projectTemplateWebItemKey=com.atlassian.jira-legacy-project-templates:jira-blank-item (don't change it!)
projectTemplateModuleKey=com.atlassian.jira-legacy-project-templates:jira-blank-item (don't change it!)
Hope that this helps someone, Jira is just weird in some cases :/

Using Google maps API via SSL

So, I know just recently that google maps API is now available in SSL (here).
My question is, how do I retro-fit my http google maps api script to use this?
So my http Google maps API script call looks like this:
http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=3&sensor=false&key=########
They suggest via this link that to use SSL it should be this:
https://maps-api-ssl.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3&sensor=false
I've tried retro-fitting this into my old URL format like so:
https://maps-api-ssl.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3&sensor=false&key=########
but that no longer displays the map.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what the URL should be?
Thanks
Try this line:
https://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3.5&sensor=true
Google btw suggests that you explicitly enter what version of the api you are going to use. Just entering v=3 will always return the latest version, at the moment 3.5. I believe that the current stable version is 3.3.
As Trott wrote in his answer, api key is no longer needed.
You don't need an API key to use v3, but I suppose it probably doesn't hurt. General things to try:
Open your browser's JavaScript console and see if it is reporting any problems when you load the page.
Remove the API key
Change & to just &
Copy and paste the exact link text you put above into your code, because that link text is working for me. I'm referring to this:
https://maps-api-ssl.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3&sensor=false&key=########
Of course, change ######## to your API key (or just remove it altogether).
