I need to be able to create a new assignment with a due date and to be able to update an existing assignment with a due date. I have gone through the documentation on the website but its still not clear to me how we would need to do that. Any advice would be appreciated.
I believe that, when you use the API route to create a new dropbox folder on the LMS you provide the due date (among other properties) in the JSON structure you provide the call. This is also true of the route to update a dropbox folder's properties.

What is the best-supported approach for tracking logged-in Usernames/Ids in App Insights telemetry?
A User with Username "JonTester1" said some Pages he visited 4 hours ago were really slow. How can I see everything JonTester1 did in App Insights to trouble shoot/know which pages he's referring to?
Seems like User Id in App Insights is some Azure-generated anonymized thing like u7gbh that Azure ties to its own idea of the same user (thru cookie?). It doesn't know about our app's usernames at all.
I've also seen a separate field in App Insights called Auth Id (or user_AuthenticatedId in some spots), which looks to sometimes have the actual username e.g. "JonTester1" filled in - but not always... And while I don't see any mention of this field in the docs, it seems promising. How is our app's code/config supposed to be setting that Auth Id to make sure every App Insights log/telemetry has it set?
Relevant MS docs:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/app/usage-send-user-context
This looks to just copy one library Telemetry object's User Id into another... no mention of our custom, helpful Username/Id anyway... and most in-the-wild examples I see don't actually look like this, including MS docs own examples in the 3rd link below; they instead hardcode get a new TelemetryClient()
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/app/website-monitoring No mention of consistently tracking a custom Username/Id
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/app/api-custom-events-metrics#authenticated-users Shows some different helpful pieces, but still no full example. E.g. it says with only the setAuth... JS function call (still no full example of working client-side JS that tracks User) on the page, you don't need any server-side code for it to track custom User Id across both client-side and server-side telemetry sent to Azure... yet then it also shows explicit code to new up a TelemetryClient() server-side to track User Id (in the Global.asax.cs or where?)... so you do need both?
Similar SO questions, but don't connect the dots/show a full solution:
Azure Insights telemetry not showing Auth ID on all transactions
Application Insights - Tracking user and session across schemas
How is Application insight tracking the User_Id?
Display user ID in the metrics of application Insight
I'm hoping this question and answers can get this more ironed out; hopefully do a better job of documentation than the relevant MS docs...
The first link in your question lists the answer. What it does show you is how to write a custom telemetry initializer. Such an initializer lets you add or overwrite properties that will be send along any telemetry that is being send to App Insights.
Once you add it to the configuration, either in code or the config file (see the docs mentioned earlier in the answer) it will do its work without you needing to create special instances of TelemetryClient. That is why this text of you does not make sense to me:
[…] and most in-the-wild examples I see don't actually look like this, including MS docs own examples in the 3rd link below; they instead hardcode get a new TelemetryClient()
You can either overwrite the value of UserId or overwrite AuthenticatedUserId in your initializer. You can modify the code given in the docs like this:
if (requestTelemetry != null && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(requestTelemetry.Context.User.Id) &&
(string.IsNullOrEmpty(telemetry.Context.User.Id) || string.IsNullOrEmpty(telemetry.Context.Session.Id)))
{
// Set the user id on the Application Insights telemetry item.
telemetry.Context.User.AuthenticatedUserId = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name;
}
You can then see the Auth Id and User Id by going to your AI resource -> Search and click an item. Make sure to press "Show All" first, otherwise the field is not displayed.
Auth Id in the screenshot below is set to the user id from the database in our example:
We access the server from azure functions as well so we set the user id server side as well since there is no client involved in such scenarios.
There is no harm in settting it in both places, javascript and server side via an initializer. That way you cover all scenario's.
You can also manually add user id to app insights by
appInsights.setAuthenticatedUserContext(userId);
See App Insights Authenticated users
I have problem during using fire-base with rails to making a real time form in rails with fire-base how it will be done .. please help me i am new in fire-base.
How to make a real time sharing form in Rails using fire-base.
sorry for bad English ;)
It would be good if you can use ids as keys for each of your form element like input ,select etc and can place value for the element to make each key-value pairs.
This would be effective in a case when you have a persistent record for that form i.e for make new records this approach is not good.
You can use the firebase-rails gem, it's description reads as follows: Ruby
wrapper for the Firebase REST API.
Changes are sent to all subscribed clients automatically, so you can
update your clients in realtime from the backend.
It's very easy to use, although the documentation is somewhat lack luster for but it's just enough for a simple app (if you don't know what you're doing).
Well, the powers that be would like Redmine to be aware of the data in one of our other systems so issues can be auto assigned to staff based on our business application's parcel id's.
Until now we had a call tracking system written from scratch. I'd like to bastardize Redmine since it comes so close to meeting all user requirements. I think if I get pointed in the right direction I can hook into Redmine some already written javascript and already existing webservices to pull the necessary data to display it on a Redmine ticket at the time of ticket creation. I know that Redmine is highly customizable, but I don't know where to begin. I already checked for existing plugins to do this and I found none.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I hope I understand what you want.
You can add custom_field or write a migration to add a new column to table issues and patch issue form (you can use redmine hooks http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Hooks_List). I prefer second way because it does not depend on Redmine settings.
You should add in plugin a route and method into issues_controller. This action will get AJAX request with ParcelID from the view (issue form) and proxy it to external server. The response should be user email (I think only this info is common for users in Redmine and External server). The action should find appropriate user in Redmine and return user_id to the view.
Patch issue form: add new input Parcel ID and add JS code. JS code should send AJAX after ParcelID loses focus and setup Assignee if request returns user_id.
some notes:
I don't think that you will manage to communicate with external server directly (without controller) because Server can return own user_id or user_email but view will not manage to setup Assignee using this attributes.
I think it is necessary to care about performance because JS code will start at least two requests (View<->Redmine, Redmine<->External Server)
hope it helps you
Hi all i'm new to adwords api. im using v201101 version
i'm creating 3 adrgroups to a one campaign at a time using adgroupservice mutate method.
im getting AdGroupReturnValue as return value.
but problem is if one adgroup creation is failed,remaining adgroups are also failed.
Thanks
I think that the current version of the AdWords API only supports partial failure for Criterion (keywords/placements etc). Other entity types will either all fail or all commit so you need to validate them first yourself to make sure they won't fail.
For a webapp written in Grails I would like to keep track of the current users account. In addition the account-name should be displayed as part of the url.
1) Keep the variable in the session
2) Pass the variable via account parameters
Currently I am experimenting with option 2 which allows me to create URL's like http://app.com/accountname/controller. The drawback is that with every URL I will have to pass the account name along as a variable. This is tedious and error prone.
Is any of the two options preferable? Are there better ways in Grails to achieve this?
Regards,
Jens
I have been using a session variable to keep track of the user's account.
Ie: session.user = userAccount;.
You could set this in your login controller.
A better way to keep track of the user is probably to set a cookie. It will be sent to the server with every request & you can easily read it. Why do you need the account name to be part of the URL? I can't think of a good reason to put the current users account in the URL. What happens when someone copy's & paste a link, and someone else follows it? Can you give some more details on what you're trying to do?
