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)

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)
I'm trying to figure out how to download a PDF from the BOE restful API.
I've been following the answer from ƘɌỈSƬƠƑ here:
SAP BI Open Doc URL for retrieving pdf
I was able to accomplish step 1 (getting the token).
But on the second step, it mentions using the documentID.
e.g.
/biprws/raylight/v1/documents/5690743/parameters
On the front end of BOE, if I click on the report, and choose Properties, it shows me that the "ID/CUID" is:
ID, CUID:746001, AdgNq_GsaqhOqnzc4gRN_Jg
Does that mean the "DocumentID" is 746001?
I'm not sure if I'm using the correct ID, because when I hit:
/biprws/raylight/v1/documents/746001/parameters
I get:
<error>
<error_code>100</error_code>
<message>Rule not respected (Argument 'reportIds' must not be null)</message>
</error>
You don't need to obtain prompt information (/parameters endpoint).
I think you are using the correct ID since the error is on the report. You obtain a 404 Not Found response status, if the document does not exist.
After a successful login, simply call /biprws/raylight/v1/documents/5690743 and add to your request an header with name Accept and value application/pdf. Of course the X-SAP-LogonToken should also be provided.
It will export the whole document. If you only need a specific report, you need to retrieve its ID first. Call the URI /biprws/raylight/v1/documents/5690743/reports with Accept header equals to application/json.
Choose one of the report, and get its ID (for example, in my case reportID equals 1234). Then you can export the report as a PDF by calling the URI: /biprws/raylight/v1/documents/5690743/reports/1234 with Accept header equals to application/pdf.
I want to create project with Microsoft Cognitive Services working with Onedrive API.
Scenario is : User will give me an Onedrive link and my API will go files on that folder.
Is it possible?
If so, where can I find more documentation about it?
You'll want to leverage the shares API using an encoded version of the OneDrive Link.
GET ../v1.0/shares/{sharingTokenOrUrl}
Where sharingTokenOrUrl in your case is the URL encoded in the following manner:
First, use base64 encode the URL.
Convert the base64 encoded result to unpadded base64url format by
removing = characters from the end of the value, replacing / with _
and + with -.)
Append u! to be beginning of the string.
As an example, to encode a URL in C#:
string sharingUrl = "https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=1231244193912!12&authKey=1201919!12921!1";
string base64Value = System.Convert.ToBase64String(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sharingUrl));
string encodedUrl = "u!" + base64Value.TrimEnd('=').Replace('/','_').Replace('+','-');
Check out this documentation for a complete description of the shares endpoint.
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
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)});
