Frustrating issue with attempting to use REST to login to the BIM 360 Field API, it was suggested that to use the postman application in order to ensure that my code wasn't an issue, however I'm now getting an unauthorized error, this has been attempted with an admin account and a developer account with the same response (login details are definitely valid), I was wandering if anyone has encountered this problem before or has any idea how would go about getting past this, I need to get the ticket response in order to go any further with developing an application for this, I'm already in contact with someone from Autodesk but due to timezone differences responses are difficult!
I've attached a picture to highlight the simplicity of what I'm attempting to do with no joy!
Thanks in advance

In case somebody else hits the same issue, FYI -
Dan and I looked at this issue, and we learned (in a hard way) that the base URL for BIM 360 Field in European region is:
https://bim360field.eu.autodesk.com
Notice "eu" in the URL. In the U.S., it is https://bim360field.autodesk.com
I wrote a post about this, too, for future reference:
https://fieldofviewblog.wordpress.com/2016/08/18/base-url-for-bim-360-field-in-european-countries/
I also found it worked when I used https but not http although the examples in the help use http.

I'm doing a CTF activity that I have been working on for the past week and I cannot seem to figure out what is going wrong. To break it down it goes something like this:
It is an application that consist of 3 tabs, "Balances", "Transactions", and "Payments"
Everytime you click on one of those tabs, information is displayed which comes from an API.
But the API call for "Balances" is broken, when it is requested, nothing shows up under the Balance tab and it returns a 404 resource not found error.
So far I've used cURL to try and talk to the API through that and made sure there was no errors in the spelling of the requested site but still no luck.
I would appreciate it if someone could guide me in the right direction or maybe suggest an approach to take instead of giving out what to do step for step which would be much appreciated :).
Edit: The API call is intentionally broken, the challenge is to figure out why it is broken and how to fix it.
Thanks!
kek just solved this very challenge.
Have you considered that the "Cyber Gang" (context of the challenge) may have changed the endpoint from balances to something else?
Considering that you get a 404 balance from curling get-balances, perhaps you could figure out a way to find other subdomains :)
I need a little help here, i hope someone here can help me for a hint or clue.
First of all, I'm not programmer. I'm just web admin who can use cms and basic html.
I was using PrestaShop for my online shop. In the backend, I can't upload new product image anymore.
The error just blank without any sign for me. Here for the screenshot:
I appreciate it, if someone can help me, thanks, and sorry for my english.
#PanjiWiyono This errors don't really give us a quality information, but this is a start. In your JS code should be a ajax query that has an error when converting results to json (first error). You should check what's the exact error that this request is returning by inspecting in browser developer console.
If you detect that the second error is in fact, the response of this ajax query, well now we almost have the problem.
The second error should be related to data size. Check this: Error while sending QUERY packet
Anyway, you should check DbPDO.php class. You can use debug_backtrace function to display the complete stack, but definitly if error is related to a basic PHP class issue you will have not help knowing wich classes are in calling stack.
Good luck.
Simple solution
maybe a extra module is in a conflict with the prestashop core files. go to advanced parameters, performance and disable third party modules and try again.
other option is reupload admin folder with other name and
js folder check again
hope it will work for you
Background: I'm trying to log into an HTTPS site with my valid credentials, navigate to a page that has a frequently updated list, and then scrape the list.
I was using code someone else wrote, which worked until a few weeks ago. I am new to this, but even i can see that the code was not very good, so i am trying to rewrite.
First I log into the site and create an tunnel. Then I move to the page where my list is and grab the list, etc.
Here's what's weird. The login fails every time, until I turn on Fiddler. With Fiddler running it succeeds every time.
Any idea about why this would happen and how to fix?
Many thanks.
I got it working!
For anyone who finds themselves in the same situation (I've seen a number of posting of similar questions - but the answers hadn't worked for me, so I expect I am not alone), I eventually saw that I needed to set the security protocol to TLS. The specific syntax I used was:
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls;
The setting needs to be specified before the Httpwebrequest get or post event occurs.
If you have a similar problem, I hope this helps.
I had an invalid "User-Agent" header. It contained invalid characters (ä, ö, ü).
Does anybody know where documentation for the Metacritic api is/if it still works. There used to be a Metacritic API at https://market.mashape.com/byroredux/metacritic-v2#get-user-details which disappeared today.
Otherwise I'm trying to scrape the site myself but keeping getting a blocked by a 429 Slow down. I got data like 3 times this hour and haven't been able to get anymore in the last 20 minutes which is making testing difficult and application possibly useless. Please let me know if there's anything else I can be doing to scape I don't know about.
I was using that API as well for an app I wrote a while ago. Looks like the creator removed it from Mashape. I just sent him an email to ask whether it'll be back up. I did find this scraper online. It only has a few endpoints but following the examples given you could easily add more. Let me know if you make any progress!
Edit: Looks like CBS requested it to be taken down. The ToS prohibits scraping:
[…] you agree not to do the following, or assist others to do the following:
Engage in unauthorized spidering, “scraping,” data mining or harvesting of Content, or use any other unauthorized automated means to gather data from or about the Services;
Though I was hoping for a Javascript way of doing this, the creator of the API also told me some info.
He says I was getting blocked for not having a User agent in the header and should use a 429 handling procedure i.e. re-request with longer pauses in between.
A PHP plugin available as well: http://datalinx.io/shop/metacritic-api/
I had to add a user agent like JCDJulian said and now it allows me to scrape. So for Ruby:
agent = Mechanize.new
agent.user_agent_alias = "Mac Firefox"
Then it stopped giving me the 403 Forbidden error.
I'm trying to retrieve a user timeline from Twitter using YQL's community Twitter table. The full REST url is
https://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=SELECT%20*%20FROM%20twitter.status.timeline.home%20WHERE%20oauth_consumer_key%20%3D%20'kt9wDTrDREjXzRhBMpw'%20AND%20oauth_consumer_secret%20%3D%20'zNnA76G3NhZSeaJdRv7munbyutlcqK8k0hazf6JrEo'%20AND%20oauth_token%20%3D%20'195tuy9661-yJFEsgA0VPCwg6gsNHtuy2y2Kq2LwTdKe4BRYa4j'%20AND%20oauth_token_secret%20%3D%20'myWfyDTtOHscMmJy6tuyU1XDyiZJiIIRkK7sIPvT2ngI'&diagnostics=true&env=store%3A%2F%2Fdatatables.org%2Falltableswithkeys
(keys have been mangled to protect the guilty)
The response I get is:
The current table
'twitter.status.timeline.user' has
been blocked. It exceeded the allotted
quotas of either time or instructions
As I seem to be doing the querying correctly, I'm at a bit of a loss as to why I should get this response, particularly since it works as it should through the YQL console. The only thing I can think of is that I need to authorize my query somehow with an API key, or oAuth credentials, but I haven't been able to find a comprehensible example of how to do this.
Can anyone possibly point me in the right direction on this? YQL's community tables seem to offer a marvelous way to do very complicated things with ease, so I'd hate to fall at the last hurdle so to speak.
According to the twitter docs the call to this API endpoint is supposed to return the last tweets from the authorized user, right? Not from any kind of user. Just checking that this is really what you want to achieve.
From: http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/statuses/home_timeline
Returns the 20 most recent statuses,
including retweets if they exist,
posted by the authenticating user and
the user's they follow. This is the
same timeline seen by a user when they
login to twitter.com.
This is the definition of the datatable that you are using. I am a bit confused about the #id parameter in the example of that datatable because I don't see it being used anywhere.
www.datatables.org/twitter/twitter.status.timeline.home.xml
The error message you get sounds like an internal YQL error message and not like something that comes from Twitter, doesn't it?
Sorry for not being able to provide answer right now but maybe raising other related questions can help somebody else or you to figure it out. If I crack this later I will add to this again.
