There are only a few RPC methods that include the HTTP reference endpoint in the reference documentation.
I got the Google Ads Service's Mutate method to work with
https://googleads.googleapis.com/v3/customers/{customer-id}/googleAds:mutate
However, trying to call the Keyword Plan Idea service fails, reporting there is no such URL on the server:
https://googleads.googleapis.com/v2/customers/{customer-id}/keywordPlanIdea:generateKeywordIdeas
I have tried it with and without the customers/{customer-id}, and with GET, POST, and even PUT. No luck.
Does anyone know the correct endpoint?
Thanks!
John
For generateKeywordIdeas, the URL endpoint is
https://googleads.googleapis.com/v6/customers/{customer-id}/generateKeywordIdeas
This information is listed here: https://github.com/googleapis/googleapis/blob/master/google/ads/googleads/v6/services/keyword_plan_idea_service.proto
Specifically, this code from that file:
rpc GenerateKeywordIdeas(GenerateKeywordIdeasRequest) returns (GenerateKeywordIdeaResponse) {
option (google.api.http) = {
post: "/v6/customers/{customer_id=*}:generateKeywordIdeas"
body: "*"
};
}
You can find the endpoints for all other Google Ads services in this way, by going here: https://github.com/googleapis/googleapis/tree/master/google/ads/googleads/v6/services
However, this doesn't tell you the request payload format. For that, I suggest looking into their API clients, like this: https://github.com/googleads/google-ads-php/blob/master/examples/Planning/GenerateKeywordIdeas.php. You can run some of those examples and inspect the network to see how the request is structured.

I use self hosted Jira and I'm currently trying to connect to the Jira api using a python script (and the requests library) having 2fa enabled by my organization. I'm not an admin of the project and after creating a personal access token and using it as a Bearer token I only got so far to get a response from the server telling me to put in the OTP to proceed.
I was thinking whether I could possibly pass the OTP as part of the authorization header when making the request to the api but couldn't find any useful hints on how to do that. I have also been looking into OAuth tokens but from my understanding I'm unable to create one since I don't have the option to create an application link within Jira (since I'm not an admin).
Does anyone have an idea on how I could manage to establish the connection to the api?
Any help would be appreciated!!
Cheers,
Liz
Hey #Liz try this project for inspiration - https://github.com/dren79/JiraScripting_public
I built it out on the below examples from the API documentation.
#This code sample uses the 'requests' library:
#http://docs.python-requests.org
import requests
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth
import json
url = "https://your-domain.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue/{issueIdOrKey}"
auth = HTTPBasicAuth("email#example.com", "<api_token>")
headers = {
"Accept": "application/json"
}
response = requests.request(
"GET",
url,
headers=headers,
auth=auth
)
print(json.dumps(json.loads(response.text), sort_keys=True, indent=4, separators=(",", ": ")))
I am able to generate an oauth2 access token (from a refresh token), which I believe should give me the ability to access the youtube data api functionally to delete/upload content.
Using python and the youtube api I need to delete and upload a (new) video to youtube periodically, say hourly.
All google python samples I've found seem to call the "DENY/ALLOW" screen which requires a copy/paste back in the calling app.
I can do this occasionally but otherwise want the process to be automated. I've read about service accounts which, which according to the linked post, are not supported by the youtube api. Offline access et.al. is also mentioned but in somewhat abstract terms i.e. no concrete python examples (that I have yet found). Another source mentioned an http get like below:
"GET access_token=ya29.GlxBBS89....ast987&part=snippet&mine=true"
but the following in python doesn't seem to work returning "response [400]" (bad request)
url = 'https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels'
args = 'access_token: ' + token var + ', part: snippet, mine: true'
get_token = requests.get(url, data = args)
I have used Can we use google youtube data api without OAuth (and others) to get to this stage but need clarification for the next step.
**********************************Update*********************************
I have found that I can only generate access tokens for clients credentials configured as web apps. I am writing a desktop app so I may be barking up the wrong tree.
Or learning Django...
I found examples at https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/guides/auth/installed-apps that helped.
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>" https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=snippet&mine=true
curl https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?access_token=<access_token>&part=snippet&mine=true
The curl samples especially provided confirmation that I'm reaching the endpoint and returned helpful debugging info. They have exposed other issues which I'll ask in another question.
In Postman, I am able to successfully request a new token using the GUI. I'm wondering how to do this programatically. Or at least see the HTTP request that Postman is making. I've tried viewing it by monitoring the network traffic in Chrome, and with Wireshark, but without success. Thank you
well, OAuth2 is quite a big subject and you are not really providing a lot of details.
Postman is just a client, it creates requests based on the data you gave it so you don't need to monitor anything, you should know how you set it up and then simply mirror that in whatever language you want. Look at headers and post data specifically.
All I can do is point you to an extensive article I wrote on OAuth2, it shows a complete implementation, how to use Postman to create the correct requests and then how to write code which makes it all work.
If you don't use dot net, you can still understand all the concepts and it should be trivial to do the same thing using a different language.

UPDATE: All calls to the API receive the following response:
failed [500] An error has occurred
Weirdly, my auth process (documented here) works perfectly, while all calls to the API (documented here), fail.
The Bigcommerce API is in transition from basic auth to oAuth. The documentation is consequently a little confusing.
I am trying to create a webhook using the new oAuth methodology. The documentation states that I need an oAuth access_token for the relevant store, which I have obtained.
The documentation also includes sample http request data:
{
"scope": "store/order/*",
"headers": {
"X-Custom-Auth-Header": "{secret_auth_password}"
},
"destination": "https://app.example.com/orders",
"is_active": true
}
In this context, I am assuming that {secret_auth_password} refers to the store's access_token. However, when I include the access_token here I get the following error:
failed [401] You are not authorized.
Thinking that this might be a scoping/permission issue, I have given my app the highest possible level of access through the app settings, but this did not work either.
Thanks in advance for any pointers.
Well after a couple of days of serious head-scratching (not to mention hair out-tearing) I worked out that this was all down to an error in my SSL intermediate certificate, which I have now fixed.
It was the old API returning an error of “UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE” that put me on the right track – the new API just returned:
500 – there is an error
or
404 – you are not authorized.
If you are using PHP I would recommend using the the Webhooks pull request combined with the OAuth pull request. They are both working fine together (I personally use them).
Webhooks pull - https://github.com/bigcommerce/bigcommerce-api-php/pull/101
OAuth pull - https://github.com/bigcommerce/bigcommerce-api-php/pull/88
Then to create a webhook you can just call createWebhook($object)
Object needs to include scope and destination.
Also - a side note.. Are you using SSL for the destination address. It won't work otherwise. You can use a self-signed cert to get around this though.
This will only work for setting up the webhooks though.
To actually receive them you need a valid certificate (else you get nothing).
Hope this helps.
I came across this same part of the documentation and was also confused by it. The proper headers to send for webhooks are the following:
"X-Auth-Client":"[YOUR_APPS_CLIENT_ID]",
"X-Auth-Token":"[OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN]"
In addition to using the headers that #FlyingL123 suggested, also take note of of the requirements as noted by BigCommerce:
Requirements
The following properties of the webhooks are required. The request
won’t be fulfilled unless these properties are valid.
scope
destination
Is it possible to make a request to Twitter API in a single like? (http request?)
In example you can get the JSON in the Facebook API by the following single url:
https://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN
Can something be possible similarly in twitter. E.g.:
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?consumer_key=CONSUMER_KEY&consumer_secret=CONSUMER_SECRET&access_token=ACCESS_TOEKN&token_secret=TOKEN_SECRET
I find the twitter documentation quite stiff. If somebody has another proposal to get me understand how the communication with the API works I would be glad.
