Hi I'm a little perplexed. I'm making a paypal api call with sandbox credentials. The return ACK is: success. When i go to either payer or business sandbox account no transactions have been processed. I debuged through and looks like i'm populating all the fields, plus i would think if some fields are missing the error would've been thrown. Here is the code I'm using.
.....
APIProfile apiProfile = ProfileFactory.createSignatureAPIProfile();
apiProfile.setAPIUsername(paypalAccount.getApiLogin());
apiProfile.setAPIPassword(paypalAccount.getApiPassword());
apiProfile.setSignature(paypalAccount.getApiSignature());
apiProfile.setEnvironment(paypalAccount.getApiEnvironment());
// caller
NVPCallerServices callerServices = new NVPCallerServices();
callerServices.setAPIProfile(apiProfile);
// encoder
NVPEncoder encoder = new NVPEncoder();
encoder.add(METHOD, METHOD_VALUE);
encoder.add(RETURNURL, paypalAccount.getReturnUrl());
encoder.add(CANCELURL, paypalAccount.getCancelUrl());
encoder.add(CURRENCYCODE, CURRENCYCODE_VALUE);
encoder.add(PAYMENTACTION, PAYMENTACTION_VALUE);
encoder.add(AMT, payment.getPaymentOrder().getPrice().toString());
encoder.add(L_NAME0, L_NAME0_VALUE);
encoder.add(L_AMT0, payment.getPaymentOrder().getPrice().toString());
// call
String NVPRequest = encoder.encode();
String NVPResponse = callerServices.call(NVPRequest);
NVPDecoder decoder = new NVPDecoder();
decoder.decode(NVPResponse);
String ack = decoder.get(ACK);
payment.setPaymentTransaction(decoder.get(TOKEN));
......
Any help would be awesome!
If you are using express checkout you need to make 3 calls:
SetExpressCheckout (response with a token)
GetExpressCheckout
DoExpressCheckout
Once ‘DoExpressCheckout’ passes you should be able to see a transaction logged in your sandbox buyer and merchant accounts.

So using the following simple code to just test tweet to Twitter. I have signed up for the account and have all the pertinent info. The only thing I may be doing wrong is putting the wrong key/secret in the wrong area. Here is my Twitter dev setup:
This is my simple code:
function sendTweet(status) {
status = "Is this a cool tweet?";
var twitterKeys = {
TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY: '**************************',
TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET: '**************************',
TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN: '**************************-**************************',
TWITTER_ACCESS_SECRET: '**************************',
};
var props = PropertiesService.getScriptProperties();
props.setProperties(twitterKeys);
var service = new Twitterlib.OAuth(props);
if (service.hasAccess()) {
var response = service.sendTweet(status);
if (response) {
Logger.log('Tweet ID ' + response.id_str);
} else {
// Tweet could not be sent
// Go to View -> Logs to see the error message
}
}
}
My consumer key/secret -> API Key and Secret below and my access token/secret -> Access Token and Secret below. I am seeing the following error which doesn't give me a lot to go on as far as errors and been fighting to figure this out for days.
Send tweet failure. Error was:
{"name":"Exception"}
options were:
{"method":"POST","payload":"status=Is%20this%20a%20cool%20tweet%3F","headers":{"Authorization":"OAuth oauth_consumer_key=\"**************************\", oauth_nonce=\"**************************\", oauth_signature=\"**************************%3D\", oauth_signature_method=\"HMAC-SHA1\", oauth_timestamp=\"1644456180\", oauth_token=\"**************************-**************************\", oauth_version=\"1.0\""},"escaping":false}
Any help or resources would be a huge help in figuring this out!! Thank you in advance.

This turned out being I needed to turn on essential API access in the Twitter API Developer site. Once I turned that on, and retried, it was a success. Hope that helps anyone else.
I don't know if you can help me understand the right way forward with this issue. I need to provide a little bit of background first.
I have a VB.Net Console Utility that uses the Google V3 Calendar API. This utility has the following process to authenticate:
Private Function DoAuthentication(ByRef rStrToken As String, ByRef rParameters As OAuth2Parameters) As Boolean
Dim credential As UserCredential
Dim Secrets = New ClientSecrets() With {
.ClientId = m_strClientID,
.ClientSecret = m_strClientSecret
}
'm_Scopes.Add(CalendarService.Scope.Calendar)
m_Scopes.Add("https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/ https://mail.google.com/")
Try
credential = GoogleWebAuthorizationBroker.AuthorizeAsync(Secrets, m_Scopes,
"user", CancellationToken.None,
New FileDataStore("PublicTalkSoftware.Calendar.Application")).Result()
' Create the calendar service using an initializer instance
Dim initializer As New BaseClientService.Initializer() With {
.HttpClientInitializer = credential,
.ApplicationName = "~~~~~~~~~~"
}
m_Service = New CalendarService(initializer)
rStrToken = credential.Token.AccessToken.ToString()
rParameters.AccessToken = credential.Token.AccessToken
rParameters.RefreshToken = credential.Token.RefreshToken
Catch ex As Exception
' We encountered some kind of problem, perhaps they have not yet authenticated?
Return False
End Try
Return True
End Function
This part of the application process works fine. The data store file gets created and once the user has authenticated it all seems to just work find from there on. The user will be able to update the calendar without any further authenticating on there part.
Now, I also have a part of my MFC (the main application) project that sends emails for the user. This uses the following CkMainManW library.
For the most part that works too. If the user has correctly set up their credentials it is fine. However, if they are using GMail, then I do things slightly differently. This is to avoid the need to have the "Allow third party apps" option to be ticked in the Google account.
So, for GMail users, we send emails like this:
mailman.put_SmtpUsername(strUsername);
mailman.put_OAuth2AccessToken(strGoogleToken);
As you can see, I use the OAuth2AccessToken. This actual value passed is the credential.Token.AccessToken.ToString() value stored from when the user authenticated. Now, I have since understood that this actual token only lasts for one hour. This would explain why some users have to repeatedly run my calendar authentication again to get a new access token.
Clearly, when I do the calendar authentication which uses the data store file, it does something under the hood the avoid the user being asked all the time to authenticate.
Now, I have read this tutorial about using the Chilkat Library for this. I notice now that in the sample code it has a comment:
// Now that we have the access token, it may be used to send as many emails as desired
// while it remains valid. Once the access token expires, a new access token should be
// retrieved and used.
So, with all the background, how do I resolve my issue? So I have a data store file that contains the original access token from when they authorised and a refresh token. This file was created by the VB.Net command line module.
By the sounds of it, the Chilkat routine needs an access token that is valid. So, what is the right way for me to get an updated access token from the refresh token, so that when I send emails it won't fail after an hour?
Update
I am getting myself confused. I changed my code so that it called the DoAuthentification call above to get the refresh token and access token. But I am finding that the actual data store file is not getting revised. The text file is not being revised.
I have to revoke access and then do the authentication to get the data store file revised. And it is only once it has been revised that the access token will work for sending emails.
I think I have found the solution. I saw this answer:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/33813994/2287576
Based on the answer I added this method:
Private Function RefreshAuthentication(ByRef rStrAccessToken As String, ByRef rStrRefreshToken As String) As Boolean
Dim parameters As New OAuth2Parameters
With parameters
.ClientId = m_strClientID
.ClientSecret = m_strClientSecret
.AccessToken = rStrAccessToken ' Needed?
.RefreshToken = rStrRefreshToken
.AccessType = "offline"
.TokenType = "refresh"
.Scope = "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/ https://mail.google.com/"
End With
Try
Google.GData.Client.OAuthUtil.RefreshAccessToken(parameters)
rStrAccessToken = parameters.AccessToken
rStrRefreshToken = parameters.RefreshToken
RefreshAuthentication = True
Catch ex As Exception
RefreshAuthentication = False
End Try
End Function
I am not sure if I need to pass in the existing access token or not before refreshing. But either way, the tokens get updated and I can proceed with sending emails.
FYI, in the end it became apparent that I did not need any bespoke Refresh at all because the system manages it for you under the hood.
Private Async Function DoAuthenticationAsync() As Task(Of Boolean)
Dim credential As UserCredential
Dim Secrets = New ClientSecrets() With {
.ClientId = m_strClientID,
.ClientSecret = m_strClientSecret
}
Try
credential = Await GoogleWebAuthorizationBroker.AuthorizeAsync(Secrets, m_Scopes,
"user", CancellationToken.None,
New FileDataStore("xxx.Calendar.Application"))
' Create the calendar service using an initializer instance
Dim initializer As New BaseClientService.Initializer() With {
.HttpClientInitializer = credential,
.ApplicationName = "yy"
}
m_Service = New CalendarService(initializer)
Catch ex As Exception
' We encountered some kind of problem, perhaps they have not yet authenticated?
' Can we isolate that as the exception?
m_logger.Error(ex, "DoAuthenticationAsync")
Return False
End Try
Return True
End Function
I have not required any bespoke Refresh of tokens for a long time now.
What is the correct method for setting a client to auto answer with the vLine API for WebRTC calls?
Looking at your comment, it looks like you have figured this out. But for completeness and for future reference I will go ahead and answer.
To auto answer a call, all you have to do is call MediaSession.start() when an incoming call comes in, instead of throwing a prompt to the user.
Here is an example snippet:
client.on('add:mediaSession', onAddMediaSession, self);
// Handle new media sessions
onAddMediaSession(event){
var mediaSession = event.target;
mediaSession.on('enterState:incoming', onIncoming, self);
},
// Handle new incoming calls and autoAccept
onIncoming(event){
var mediaSession = event.target;
// Auto Accept call instead of a prompt
mediaSession.start();
}
Note that you can do this in your code even if you are using the UI Widgets.
I would like to integrate a service as. Apart of our product signin that will call the user to give them a code.
I can generate codes as mp3 without issue but I don't know of a service that can place the call and then play the mp3 to the user.
Any thoughts or feedback on this sort of app need?
Highly recommend Twilio Cloud Communication, it can be used to send the code via SMS or by a phone call.
Using PHP as an example, here is how it would look -
Text Message
<?php
// Get the Twilio PHP Library from http://twilio.com/docs/libraries
require "Services/Twilio.php";
//Random Code
$code = rand(pow(10, 6-1), pow(10, 6)-1);
// Set your Twilio Account settings
$AccountSid = "ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
$AuthToken = "YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY";
//Initial Twilio instance
$client = new Services_Twilio($AccountSid, $AuthToken);
//Recipient number - must be +15555555555 format
$recipient = '+18882224444';
$caller_id = '+18008885555'; //Twilio phone number
//Send the message
$sms = $client->account->sms_messages->create(
$caller_id,
$recipient,
"Your activation code is: $code"
);
Phone Call
<?php
// Get the Twilio PHP Library from http://twilio.com/docs/libraries
require "Services/Twilio.php";
// Set your Twilio Account settings
$AccountSid = "ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
$AuthToken = "YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY";
//Initial Twilio instance
$client = new Services_Twilio($AccountSid, $AuthToken);
$call = $client->account->calls->create(
'9991231234', // From a valid Twilio number
'8881231234', // Call this number
//When the call is connected, code at this URL will be executed
'/say-code.php'
);
say-code.php
<?php
// Get the Twilio PHP Library from http://twilio.com/docs/libraries
require "Services/Twilio.php";
// Random Code
$code = rand(pow(10, 6-1), pow(10, 6)-1);
// Generate TwiML - XML for Twilio
// This will execute when the caller is connected and use Text-To-Speech to
// play their activation code.
// You may also use an MP3 like so:
// $response->play('http://example.com/code.mp3');
$response = new Services_Twilio_Twiml();
$response->say("Your activation code is $code");
print $response;
There are a lot of other helper libraries out there to accomplish this with Twilio. Hope this helps!
I am wondering if something like Twilio Cloud Communications would work.
Concerning the new Paypal SDK, there is almost no useful example code, and the Internet is littered with examples of the old SDK. My question concerns making an API request for a third party paypal account for which i have obtained the token and secretToken through the permissions API.
In attempting to construct a PPAPIService object, where is the list of possible sevice names?
ie: $this->serviceName = $serviceName; (in the constructor) What is the string syntax for these?
In regards to the makeRequest method, how do I define the $apiMethod variable, and what is the format of the $params variable? What are the different parameters?
A simple example of how to just obtain the account balance of the authorized third party account would be extremely helpful.
I am using PHP.
from the PPAPIService.php file:
class PPAPIService
{
public $endpoint;
public $serviceName;
private $logger;
public function __construct($serviceName = "")
{
$this->serviceName = $serviceName; //is there ANY documentation about the syntax and types of service names?
$config = PPConfigManager::getInstance();
$this->endpoint = $config->get('service.EndPoint');
$this->logger = new PPLoggingManager(__CLASS__);
}
public function setServiceName($serviceName)
{
$this->serviceName = $serviceName;
}
public function makeRequest($apiMethod, $params, $apiUsername = null, $accessToken = null, $tokenSecret = null)
{
//what are the apiMethod types? syntax? and params? type.. options...??
}
}
Well, you do not have to create a PPAPIService object directly. Let's say you want to use the Invoicing SDK, here's what you would do
$invoiceService = new InvoiceService();
$invoiceService->setAccessToken($accessToken);
$invoiceService->setTokenSecret($tokenSecret);
$createInvoiceResponse = $invoiceService->CreateInvoice($createInvoiceRequest);
There's one service class (such as InvoiceService in this code snippet) per API that you would instantiate as per your needs. The API username/password are picked from the configuration file and the access token/token secret are set via code since they typically tend to be different for different invocations.
Which API are you trying to call, by the way?
To answer on your other concern, the new PayPal SDK's have all the required samples bundled within the SDK itself. The SDK + Samples canbe downloaded from
