Google Action API.ai Account linking debugging URL returning 500 - google-oauth

I’ve followed this tutorial https://apiai-aws-heroku-nodejs-bots.blogspot.co.uk/2017/07/steps-for-apiai-and-google-account.html but when I go and grab by debugging URL which happens to be https://assistant.google.com/services/auth/handoffs/auth/start?provider=allergology-5fa9c_dev&scopes=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email+https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile+https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.resource.calendar&return_url=https://www.google.com/ and paste it into a new window I get Error 500 but no explanation.
I also tried from an incognito window. It does ask for my email and password but then returns the same error.
I’ve used Implicit Grant Type and I don’t have Add quick account linking enabled please ket me know if that’s not right?
When I try the CURL URL I get the message {“status”:{“code”:401,“errorType”:“unauthorized”,“errorDetails”:“Authentication parameters missing”}}
UPDATE - now when I try the basic Talk to Allergology action on the simulator I don’t even get the debug info anymore, but the message “Sorry this action is not available in simulation” :frowning:
Could you please help?
thanks

I've managed to work out what I need to do by following this answer How to authenticate user with just a Google account on Actions on Google?
In my case - Configure your project (in the cloud console) so that the Calendar API is enabled and that the OAuth2 client is correctly configured.
I also switched from Implicit Grant Type to Authorisation Code.
My app is almost working, I am now having other issues, but at some point the Access Token was coming through with the request.

Anyone know how to fix the new OAuth2 error when trying to authenticate a PyDrive application?

I don't think this issue is specific to PyDrive, but rather Google OAuth. However, some of the solutions I've seen on stackoverflow don't seem to be transferable over to my PyDrive application, which is just a python script to upload files programmatically to a shared drive. It worked fine 2 months ago but I tried to rerun it today and it's not working. Here is the error I'm getting:
Authorisation Error
Error 400: invalid_request
You can't sign in to this app because it doesn't comply with Google's OAuth 2.0 policy for keeping apps secure.
You can let the app developer know that this app doesn't comply with one or more Google validation rules.
Request Details
The content in this section has been provided by the app developer. This content has not been reviewed or verified by Google.
If you’re the app developer, make sure that these request details comply with Google policies.
redirect_uri: urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob
I am using a web application OAuth 2.0 Client ID creds on GCP. All secrets are stored in a local client_secrets.json file.
I run my script, it sends a message to the console that says
Go to the following link in your browser:
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id=blahblahblah.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=urn%3Aietf%3Awg%3Aoauth%3A2.0%3Aoob&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fdrive&access_type=offline&response_type=code
Enter verification code:
How it used to work: After I click the link above, it returns a code I paste into the console and then its authenticated. FYI: I plan on running this 24/7 on a remote server.
Now: I click the link above and get the error I posted above. I've tried to change the redirect uri to 127.0.0.1 and it does allow me to auth, then I get a code in my URL, but once I copy that and paste it into the console, I get more errors.
Anyone know the solution for this?

Persistent access control exception error message on Moodle

I am trying to enroll a user on my Moodle site via using the Moodle API.
My Moodle instance is hosted on AWS and all relevant ports are open and listening. So, from the network perspective, I can commit that is all ok.
The steps I have already done based on Moodle Documentation:
I have enabled web services on Administration > Mobile app >Mobile settings
I have gone through the 10 steps on the overview of allowing an external system to control Moodle as explained in the documentation (shown also in this Youtube video)
For testing purposes, I am using Postman. Some requests are going through (e.g. getting the token for a certain user, getting the list of all courses, etc.)
Example:
But when I try to i.e. create a user or enroll a user in an existing course I am getting this error:
{
"exception": "webservice_access_exception",
"errorcode": "accessexception",
"message": "Access control exception"
}
The way I am trying to i.e. create the user is as follows:
In the body section I am sending the following data:
users[0][username]
users[0][email]
users[0][lastname]
users[0][firstname]
users[0][password]
Based on my research, most of the contributors suggested enabling web services, but as mentioned above I have enabled them but the problem persists.
Can someone help me solve the issue here or maybe suggest a way of debugging it?
Fortunately, I managed to solve the issue for both user creation and user enrollment.
Here is a great guide that helped me. In addition, you need to add some additional functions to the web service (roles wary based on what you want to do in Moodle) and also you need to alter the permissions of the new user (again depending on what you want to do)...

Etsy Authentication changes

I am working on Etsy Authentication. I have created an app and tried to test the Authentication via Postman in the same above process but I was not able to Authenticate I was getting an error
Error
And I was unable to Edit the App and also there is no option of "Request Full Access"
No Edit option and also no Request full access and the app state is in pending approval
Help me with the issue as I was previously able to Edit the App and I have tested few APIs as well but now I am unable to do it.
Postman image
If I hit this API in the browser as a response I need code but I was getting the above error
Your request isn't working because you haven't registered the callback URL for postman with your App, and of course you mentioned that you couldn't edit your app to add the callback URL.
There is a silly URL bug on the Etsy dev portal which sending you to a broken like when you click on your app to edit it.
Once you click on the App to edit it and end up at the 404 page,
Remove this from the URL and it will then work.
I have emailed the Etsy Developers to point out this bug so hopefully it will be resolved quickly.
To piggyback off of Gareth's answer:
Step 1:
In https://www.etsy.com/developers/edit/{account_id}/callbacks, add the following callback:
http://localhost:3003/oauth/redirect
Step 2:
Follow these instructions https://developer.etsy.com/documentation/essentials/authentication/, make sure to set:
redirect_uri=http://localhost:3003/oauth/redirect
*You don't actually need anything running at localhost:3003

Google Analytics Reports Embed API returns 403 error

I just started to learn about Google Analytics Embed API from "https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/embed/v1/getting-started"
I followed their example, and deployed my HTML file onto local Tomcat server hosting at port 8080. I've added everything they mentioned including the whitelists for the host origin etc, provided my OAuth 2.0 key
when I hit my HTML page and logged in with google, I keep on getting 403 error when requesting for "https://content.googleapis.com/analytics/v3/management/accountSummaries?max-results=0&_src=embed-api%3Av1"
Anybody has any suggestions where I might have gone wrong?
p.s. the only thing I see on my page after login with Google is "You are logged in as: ***********#gmail.com"
Thanks,
Shen
Upon checking your link, I can see that the error code is 401. Regarding that error, you can check this SO thread.
I think you need to set up a service account as advised in answer.
By setting up a service account in Google apis console it will
allow you to access your own data with out needing to login and
autenticate the code all the time.

Paypal API Error 10002 although credentials are right

I know this question has been asked a thousand times before and I came across some topics here when doing some Google research about this.
My problem is: I get an Error 10002 - "Security header invalid". I checked the credentials and they are right. I use the live credentials for the live mode and am connecting to the right server and endpoint.
I am using a Paypal class written in PHP. When using it in Sandbox mode it works fine. If I am using it in live mode it shows the checkout as we know it: on the left the item and the total sum and on the right the login screen.
Now I log in with my Paypal account credentials and the API asks me to confirm the purchase. I do so. When it is at the point where it would execute the transaction and redirects to the "Purchase successful" page it suddenly says the above mentioned error.
So I did some testing on my machine with the sandbox account. Assuming that I would use invalid API credentials I would not ever see the checkout (on the left summary on the right login form). But I do. First if I confirm the transaction the API is not okay with the credentials anymore.
How can the credentials first be valid and later on they are invalid? This doesn't make any sense to me. When testing in Sandbox mode everything works fine.
I am using this library:
http://www.php-suit.com/paypal
Help would be highly appreciated as I can't find any explaination for that behaviour anymore. Again: I checked the credentials and they are right.
Best regards,
extrawagant
I'd recommend to double check again the API credentials or the endpoint used.
The error "Error 10002 - Security header invalid" is returned for these common reasons:
Providing the username/password to your actual PayPal account, instead of your API username and API password. We generate your API username and password when you generate your API certificate/signature.
Using the same API information for Sandbox and Live. You need to generate separate API information for your Sandbox and Live accounts.
You have not updated the endpoint to point to PayPal's live API servers.
Trailing or leading white space on any of the characters.
E.g. if you are using the Live Environment endpoint, make sure you are using the credentials created in the Live account. Double check for white spaces when you are pasting into your integration. If you are using the variable "SUBJECT" double check the value inserted.
