I have a task to add row into Google Sheet when WebHook received. Now I'm trying to setup IFTTT but have some problem
It says that I should use URL like https://maker.ifttt.com/trigger/{event}/with/key/{my_key} and that is ok I can do it. But it needs to send some data in request and the only way my system can do it appends it to query string like https://maker.ifttt.com/trigger/{event}/with/key/{my_key}?name1=Alex&name2=Helen
But IFTTT doesn't see my data. it says that it can see data in attached JSON but I can't use JSON.
So is there any way to pass my data to IFTT in a query string or shell I forgot IFTTT and investigate how to connect directly to Google Sheet?
IFTTT Maker webhooks can only take data with keys of "value1", "value2", and "value3". Try sending it with:
https://maker.ifttt.com/trigger/{event}/with/key/{my_key}?value1=Alex&value2=Helen
Try using https://bitly.com/ which will shorten and convert the query params to a path param. That worked for me.
First thing first, Web hooks are designed to accept data using POST method only and here you are sending data using GET, which is obviously not going to work, i guess.
Second, in order to get it work, one way is to use cURL request and send your JSON in Body with POST method.
first of all I'd like to thank the team for this amazing project, it is indeed exiting to be able to start writing server-side software in Swift.
I'm successfully running a POC using PerfectServer on an Ubuntu VM and working on the API to interact with the mobile client.
There is one aspect I didn't quite understand yet, and that is accessing the request body data from my PerfectServer Handler.
Here is the workflow I have in mind:
The client submits a POST request to PerfectServer including some
JSON encoded body data
Once that hits the "valuesForResponse:" of
my server side Handler, I retrieve the WebRequest representation of
my request successfully
The request object does expose a many
properties of the HTTP request, including headers and the url-like
formatted query parameters.
Unfortunately, I cannot see a way to retrieve the underlying request body data. I would expect that to be some kind of public properties exposing the raw data that my handle can retrieve and decode in order to process the request.
The only example provided in the Examples workspace that comes with the project and sends a POST request that includes a body is in the project Authenticator. Here the HTTP body part takes the form os a UTF-8 encoded string where the values are query-params-like formatted.
name=Matteo&password=mypassword
This gets somehow exposed on the server handler by the WebRequest "param" property, that in the inner implementation of HTTPServer seems to expect an "&" separated string of key-values:
What I would expect is to have a way to provide body data in whatever form / encoding needed, in my case a JSON form:
{"name":"Matteo", "password":"psw"}
and be able to access that data from the WebRequest in my handler, decode it and use it to serve the request.
To summarise, I assume you could say that a WebRequest.bodyData public property is what I am after here :).
Is there something I am missing here?
Thanks in advance for any clarification!
I've made a twitter api request (GET trends/place API) and the result is just like this:

My question is how to turn this array string into html. No proper php experience at all.
The response you are getting is JSON.
You used to be able to get response in XML, RSS and more, but now the only response type you will receive is JSON.
PHP has multiple methods for dealing with JSON. To encode data, you would use json_encode(). However, you want to decode it, so you want to be doing the following:
var_dump(json_decode($yourData));
This will dump the data to the browser so you can see what you have to work with.
You can iterate around this data using a foreach() loop.
Remember, assuming you json_decode() your results into $yourData:
To access array properties, use: $yourData['propertyName']
To access object properties, use: $yourData->propertyName
you can feed that into json_decode() function
you will get an array that you can manage as you want.
We need to parse the data from a google reader public rss feed, the problem is that the url parameter n=numerofitemstoretrieve only works up to n=9
For example in our test url:
http://www.google.com/reader/shared/user%2F15926769355350523044%2Flabel%2FPublicas%20RSS?n=2
Retrieves 2 news items
http://www.google.com/reader/shared/user%2F15926769355350523044%2Flabel%2FPublicas%20RSS?n=20
Retrieves only 9 news items
How can we overcome this limitation? Is there another parameter for this case? Or another method?
We found that using this alternative url the n parameter works fine:
https://www.google.com/reader/api/0/stream/contents/feed/http://www.google.com/reader/public/atom/user%2F15926769355350523044%2Flabel%2FPublicas%20RSS?n=20
The only problem is the output format its different this way, so if someone finds a better solution we will grant the response to him/her
It seems the results are cropped only when the url is viewed in the browser...if you get the web contents from code it returns the correct item count...(in contrast using the alternative url the returned contents are right both ways: getting them from code as well as viewing it in the browser)
In Atom format (link in the top right in the two urls in the OP) :
http://www.google.com/reader/public/atom/user%2F15926769355350523044%2Flabel%2FPublicas%20RSS?n=20
The content with /api/ in the URL in the second post is in JSON format, slightly harder to parse than the Atom XML.

I need to send an array of objects from Flex to a Ruby Web service, but sending them as parameters is not getting through since they seen to come through as Objects instead of readable data.
Sending it as raw XML or JSON didn't work either so the last resort might be to send everything in a HTTP query. However, I'm not sure how to do this since the array contains objects, all of which have 4 or 5 properties, and I don't know what the right format would be. Help, anyone?
you should look for an AMF implementation of rails
AMF - actionscript messaging format.
this way, you pass objects from the server to the client and the other way around, this means that when you send a list to the server, the list is of server object.
for example, if you have a Product object on the server and a Product object on the client you simply send an Arraycollection of Product to the server and iterate with rails
#products.each do |p|
p will be Product.
there was an implementation of rails here http://blog.rubyamf.org/ although I don't know if it's still maintained.
I also found a good presentation of how to use it here:
