I am going to access foursquare api. As I was going through their documentation,I am going to use
https://api.foursquare.com/v2/venues/search service to serach for the venues.
To use this api we need client id and secret and has to be appended in the above URL.
But how to get this client id and scret. Should I register my app in the foursquare site.
Is the following url correct for registering the app:
https://foursquare.com/developers/register
If it is correct,it is asking for the app market id. Our application is not in any of the app market because it is an enterprise app.So in that case how to get client id and client secret??
Kindly help.
You can complete the form without inputting details about App Market IDs by simply hitting the 'Save Changes' button (the App Market fields are not validated on submit). This will bring you to a screen that contains your client id & secret.

But actually i dont need to create a app i just want to use the store and fetch the customer details using the api into another application, can anyone please tell me how to get client id from the dashboard login.
You can use the legacy API (non-oAuth) credentials instead.

I am building chat capability in my web application. I am using jitsi as our chat server. There can be 2-4 user in a video chat session. These session will be locked. Web application will initiate the chat and will control who can join the chat room.
I am trying to embed jitsi meet inside an web page using jitsi-meet
external API listed here
https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/doc/api.md .
Our jitsi-meet is not open to public and protected with XMPP
authentication. How can I pass the authentication information through
jitsi-meet API?
I also want to lock the conference room with password. Does jitsi-meet API
have this option?
I am new to this domain. So if you know a better solution please suggest.
Yes there is:
api.executeCommand('password', 'The Password');
Best way I am using with a php/mysql app is generating a room with a random name (usually complex) from the 1st user (the caller), protecting that room with a password and sending the rest of the users a message through the app so that they can connect to the same room with the first.
This way the first user is the end point and the rest connect to the room the first user made.
You should check the other users are online at the time the room is created. The only parameter is the room name which must at all times be unique. Maybe count participants after you enter. When the last user leaves the room, the room gets destroyed. So the users hold the room.
You can also send a mail instead of an internal message.
You need to add JWT token-based authentication in jitsi then you need to generate JWT token & pass it through Jitsi's external API, in this way:
const options = {
...
jwt: '<jwt_token>',
...
};
const api = new JitsiMeetExternalAPI(domain, options);
for more detail, you should checkout Jitsi's iframe docs
My boss is setting up a UK PayPal account for use with REST API for direct credit card payments and payouts.
During this process he's been asked to choose between signature and certificate credentials.
However as far as I understand the REST API uses OAuth 2.0 so what we need is an ID and secret associated to an App.
How should we proceed?
Setting up your credentials for REST is done on the developer site https://developer.paypal.com/. You are correct that the choice between "Signature" and "Certificate" is irrelevant in this case. Try the following:
Go to https://developer.paypal.com and log in using the email address and password of the live PayPal account that will be receiving payments.
Click on “Dashboard” up at the top of the page. You should see a list of your apps here. (If, instead, you see a sentence that says “Create your first app to view it here”, you will need to create at least 1 app)
Click the app name. You’ll see your client ID and Secret for the Sandbox. Toggle your view to “Live” in the upper right corner of the page to see the credentials for the live environment.
You can click on “Account Eligibility” to see what features are available for Live. If the feature isn’t already added there will be an “Enable” link to the right. Clicking on the link will start the request process for that feature.
I am trying to parse some data using hubspot api by given demo account. To have a proper response you need client_id within parameters. It says, I can find my client_id inside app dashboard. Can someone please tell me what is the exact client_id inside dashboard or what is the client parameter for tokens.
Thanks
You would get the client_id by creating an app from the Developers dashboard, not your portal dashboard. If you haven't created an app yet, you would first need to sign in and then go here:
https://app.hubspot.com/developers/signup
If you haven't signed up yet, you can sign up there to create a Developers account, otherwise you'll get directed to the My Apps Dashboard. click the blue Create App button in the top right to create an app, and after the app is created you can click on the app name from the App Dashboard to get the Client ID.
I inherited an application that has tons of users already authorized to get twitter data on their behalf.
The problem is the guy who created is not around anymore and I am left with consumerKey and consumerToken only.
That in itself is sufficient to interact with twitter API, but I now need to know the account details ( in particular the screen_name that created the app) .
I could not find any API to get such details. Any ideas on how to get it.?
There isn't a direct way to find the app owner's screen name, but here are a few things you can do to investigate:
Use the ConsumerKey and ConsumerSecret, that you have, to start the OAuth process.
On the Twitter Authorization screen, you can see the name of the app and who created it.
You might be able to do a Twitter search for the person who created the app and get their screen name.
Continue to authorize the app - this will put it in your app list.
Visit your personal Twitter Settings tab, click on Apps, and find the App that you authorized.
Click on the owner's name, which will lead you to a Web site.
The Web site might be the company Web site, in which case, there is no further help.
The Web site might belong to the owner and it might have a link to the owner's Twitter account where you can get their screen name.
Just know that there's nothing keeping you from using the ConsumerKey/ConsumerSecret that the other guy set up. You can create your own app - preferably with an account that belongs to the company with credentials that the company can access if you're no longer around. Then use the ConsumerKey/ConsumerSecret from the new app on subsequent deployments.
