Pipeline input step field "inputId" in Jenkins - API - api

Screenshot of pipeline-input-step (Proceed or Abort)
I could not figure out how is generated pipeline-input-step url parameter inputId which contains string similar to CRUMB (CSRF protection) or API TOKEN - it is not any of these. However main purpose of it is to use it in GUI, I would like to know how to initiate it through terminal as well.
Example of url (in POST method):
http://my-jenkins-url.com/job/NAME_OF_THE_JENKINS_JOB/6/wfapi/inputSubmit?inputId=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

get request for search in JMeter

I am performing a search request in jmeter. So my test plan flow is home then login then product catalogue and then search. I tried to make a post request for search but it failing all the time. I used a CSV file so each time the query is changed. But then I used a get request and used the query variable in the search path like this search?query=${search_input}and then it passed but when i checked the html it is not the correct page. In the html response I also see this
{{noSearchResults.query}}'. But if i put the url on the browser it works fine. Can you please help me with this?
Double check that your ${search_input} variable has the anticipated value using Debug Sampler and View Results Tree listener combination
It might be the case that your ${search_input} variable contains special characters which need to be URL-encoded so you might need to wrap the variable into __urlencode() function like:
search?query=${__urlencode(${search_input})}
JMeter automatically treats responses with status code below 400 as successful, if you need to add an extra layer of check for presence of the results or absence of {{noSearchResults.query}} - use Response Assertion

Github Enterprise Raw URL Gist Unable to Download

I'm able to get a list of gists and their files https://api.git.mygithub.net/users/myuser/gists?per_page=100&page=1 which I found using the docs here: https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team#latest/rest/reference/gists#get-a-gist
The files on the gist object have a raw_url. If I fetch the raw_url with the same token, it fails wanting me to authenticate. If I add the header: Accept: application/vnd.github.v3.raw it returns a 406 Not Acceptable. I've references to that header around.
I'm not sure what the scope should be on the token. It seems like it would be the same one I accessed the API. In the UI if you click the raw file it gets a token appended to the url. That token doesn't look like one of the Private tokens mentioned here: https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team#latest/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token
So what is the format of the HTTP request to download the raw gist?
The raw url needs to have the hostname of gist. changed to raw. and the url path needs to start with /gist/.
Example code in Go fixing it:
url := gistFile.RawUrl
url = strings.Replace(url, "gist.", "raw.", 1)
url = strings.Replace(url, ".net/", ".net/gist/", 1)

Downloading a publicly-shared file from OneDrive

When I create a share link in the UI with the "Anyone with this link can view this item" option, I get a URL that looks like https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=XXX!YYYY&authkey=!ZZZZZ&ithint=<contentType>. What I can't figure out is how to use this URL from code to download the content of the file. Hitting the link gives HTML for a page to show the file.
How can I construct a call to download the file? Also, is there a way to construct a call to get some (XML/JSON) metadata about the file, and maybe even a preview or something? I want to be able to do this all without prompting a user for credentials, and all the API docs are about how to make authenticated calls. I want to make anonymous calls to get publicly-shared files.
Have a read over https://dev.onedrive.com - it documents how you can make a query to our service to get the metadata for an item, along with URLs that can be used to directly download the content.
Update with more details
Sorry, the documentation you need for your specific scenario is still in process (along with the associated SDK changes) so I'll give you an overview of how to do it.
There's a sibling to the /drives path called /shares which accepts a sharing URL (such as the one you have above) in an encoded format and allows you to get metadata for the item it represents. This does not require authentication provided the sharing URL has a valid authkey.
The encoding scheme for the id is u!<UrlSafeBase64EncodedUrl>, where <UrlSafeBase64EncodedUrl> follows the guidelines outlined here (trim the = characters from the end).
Here's a snippet that should give you an idea of the whole process:
string originalUrl = "https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=XXX!YYYY&authkey=!foo";
byte[] urlAsUtf8Bytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(originalUrl);
string utf8BytesAsBase64String = Convert.ToBase64String(urlAsUtf8Bytes);
string encodedUrl = "u!" + utf8BytesAsBase64String.TrimEnd('=').Replace('/', '_').Replace('+', '-');
string metadataUrl = "https://api.onedrive.com/v1.0/shares/" + encodedUrl + "/root";
From there you can append /content if you want to get the contents of the file, or you can start navigating through if the URL represents a folder (e.g. /children/childfile.txt)

Use URL as an API method for Slackbot in Express js

I am still new to javascript and trying to write a Slackbot in express js. I want to use the method defined in https://api.slack.com/methods/channels.history. How should this look syntacticly and how do I use it since the method is simply a URL?
You need to make an http request for the URL and you'll be returned a response with an object containing the status (ok:true|false), if there are more messages (has_more:true|false), and then an array of the actual messages (messages:array).
The response should look something like this:
{
has_more:true
messages:Array[100]
ok:true
}
The url that you make the get request to should look something like:
https://slack.com/api/channels.history?token=BOT_TOKEN&channel=CHANNEL_ID&pretty=1
Where BOT_TOKEN is the token attached to the bot you created, and CHANNEL_ID is the ID (not the name) of the channel whos history you want to get (9 uppercase alphanumeric characters, starts with a "C").
There are also a few other parameters you can include in the url. For example, "latest=", "oldest=", "inclusive=", "count=", and "unreads=". Details about those parameters can be found on the page you linked to (https://api.slack.com/methods/channels.history).
If you want to test it out in your browser's console, find a page where jQuery is loaded, open your dev tools and head into the console, and enter the following (with your bot token and channel id swapped in):
$.get('https://slack.com/api/channels.history?token=BOT_TOKEN&channel=CHANNEL_ID&pretty=1', function(response){console.log(response)});

Unable to test login using jmeter

I am newbie to jmeter. I am trying to test to login to my site say (example.com/session/new).
I have added the http cookie manager and 2 http request defaults.
In the first, am visiting example.com/session/new and extracting the authenticity token in the response data using regex meta content="(.+?)"name="csrf-token" . Now, in the second http request, I have a post request with the parameters as
name:utf value:(tickmark)
name :authenticity_token value: ${token}
name:email value:test#test.com
name:password value:test.
name:commit value:Sign In
And then am asserting for a text post login.
When I run the test, the assertion fails. as it results in 404.
In the request, I can see utf8=%E2%9C%93+&authenticity_token=%24%7Btoken%7D&email=test%40test.com&password=test&commit=Sign+In. Please help me fix this.
I know this is an old post, but I've been struggling with this exact same query, so I've decided to post my answer in case it helps anyone - it worked first time for me. So after requesting the login page for my site, the following csrf token is embedded in the html response;
<input type="hidden" name="csrfToken" value="fe5a48ebda7b98cbbf885b4a220ebe0c23b11125-1459096615520-1ac64aa945986cb1bd318d9c"/>
So when making the initial request for the login page, instead of using a Regular Expression Extractor, if the token is in the body of the HTML response, use an XPath Extractor instead.
If your response is not XML/XHTML compliant then tick the 'use tidy' checkbox.
For reference name add the reference you wish to refer to the token as e.g. token. When you add your parameters to the login request, you can then refer to your csrfToken as ${token}
Then for X-Path query use;
//input[#name="csrfToken"]/#value
The following tutorial shows you how to use a Regular Expression Extractor, but it should also help you to understand how to set up the query a bit more;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVxB3Tk4O4A&feature=iv&src_vid=hGkrSFKcj10&annotation_id=annotation_85358
Looks like you did every thing good , except correlation . After decoding your error url , I found that you correlation is not working . Below is the decoding URL "utf8=✓ &authenticity_token=${token}&email=test#test.com&password=test&commit=Sign In."
In your "Regular expression extractor" add below details
1. Reference Name:token
2. Regular Expression : name="csrfToken" value="(.+?)"
3. Template : $1$
4. Match No: 1
Note: Check the occurrences of "csrfToken", if you required first occurrence then enter 1 , if you required 2nd occurrence enter 2 ....etc.
