I completed the App Inventor 2 Pizza Party sample without any problems and now I wanted to try to query the fusion table by searching for specific items. In this case after I press the Submit button, I want to see in the webviewer, all items in the Pizza column that have Cheese.
When I run this app from my phone, I get everything in the table, not just the rows with Cheese. I know I'm doing something wrong but after quite a bit of time looking for examples and trying things myself, I'm stuck. Appreciate any help or ideas. Thank you.
I'll post this also in the MIT App Inventor forum. Thanks.
if you like to display the result in the webviewer directly, you have to modify the URL of the webviewer accordingly, see screenshot

Hi I apologize if this seems like a stupid question or if I am in the wrong section, but I am working for a startup company as their main web designer, but I was tasked with adding a simple referral code to the bottom of the page where all that is needed is where the user put their number in and they get a standard non random code outputed to their phone and if possible their number is databased and I'm just not sure where to start on this, I have followed some of their tutorials, but nothing seems to be following close to this, I have most of my experience in Javascript, CSS, and HTML and this is starting to get into some uncharted territory and I was wondering if anyone could guide me in the right way? Thank you very much for any help!
Hello Stackoverflow Community,
I would really like to get help of you, because i am at this problem for around 2 weeks now, and i could not even find something that would help me a bit.
If i get a challenge for my app and click on it, my app will open.
Is there a way to get the information on what challenge i clicked and let me display e.g. the score that i have to beat inside my game?
I tried getting the Arguments that the app is started with, but there is nothing that looks like challenge related data in there.
I already managed to get all the challenges for my game, but there is now way i can tell which one i clicked on with that method.
Thanks for you help.
As of this writing, when you click the notification or open the game via the game center, no useful information is passed to your game.
All I have found are hacky solutions, like putting descriptive text (maybe the requestor's name) in the invite text and then showing that same text when displaying the list of available matches.
I have a task to implement but after some thought I don't really know from where to begin.
What I need to achieve:
Lets take as example BestBay web site. From my app I would like to create a certain query which will go/use to BestBay search type what I need and bring me the result. On my device I would like to show it as 10 views of the first items the website returned. For instance if I type "tvs" I will get a list of tvs so I would like to show this list on my device with the price and the link to the item (at least for the 10 first items).
I have experience with native apps(i didn't worked with web apps).
I can't use Best buy api.
I am not sure from where to begin.
I read about YQL.
I thought maybe to use the web page with the results as html and parse it to the objects I need.
Did anyone do something similar and can give me some starting point.
How to approach this kind of problem.
(tutorials/documentations/sample code something that can help me to start).
Tnx a lot.
In the end I decided to do it by HTML parsing:

I am a high school student who has taken a course this year on app inventing. We recently started a project where we are making apps that would benefit our school in a positive way. We decided we would make a website for our app for those that can't access the app. We came to a roadblock and asked our teacher to help us out. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to provide us with the help we needed. So he said to find something online that can help us, which is why I have come here.
Our app project was for a place where people can report found items, or look for any item they lost. On our website, we created a Google Form for them to fill out, which then gets inserted into a Google Spreadsheet. From the spreadsheet, we were trying to get the information to be transferred over to a Google Fusion Table which we found a site that has a step by step explanation on how to do so. This is where we have come across our error. We're not sure why this keeps happening, and have triple checked everything and nothing has fixed this error. We were hoping someone could help us out and provide any sort of assistance on fixing this error.
Attached is the screenshot of the error we keep receiving, and the link to the website we used to help transfer the information.
Synchronizing Fusion Tables!
Thank you for your time, and hope to hear back from you soon.
Hard to answer as we have little information. Someone had the same problem and had in fact not switched the service on in the script editor, so in case you wouldn't have come across the link: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/google-fusion-tables/6ZtaoDUASb4/M5iqO6-6dOQJ
There's a question already related to groups, but it seems it's much more than that. Have URL schemes been completely thrown out of the new app (aside from the generic fb://), or is there a new list of supported schemes?
In particular, we can't get to a place details page. I've also tried /pages, /page, /places, /place...
Thanks,
Ivan
I'm not sure about those urls... but I just posted what I believe is a solution for facebook business pages.. it may help? Here it is below:
OK .. seriously this took me about 90 minutes of research to figure out. It works currently under facebook ios 5.0.1 for iPhone.. haven't tried it in iPad yet.
The url is fb://profile/132753734806
NOW the important part is that number. That links to one of my clients, Charles Scott. HOWEVER, that's not their FBID or Page ID.. their Page ID is 10150348920319807
so you would think it should be fb://profile/10150348920319807 but that gives me an error.
Here's how you get the correct code.. click on any of your page's photos.. here's an example for my client https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150348920319807&set=a.10150348920314807.356942.132753734806&type=1&theater
if you notice the FBID that does not work follows fbid= in that URL.. the number you WANT is just before the &type=1theater but following that last period. 132753734806 is the correct code to punch in after fb://profile/
I hope that makes some sense... I know zero about code or coding but this was bothering me so much and I knew there was a way.
Now, the two questions I would love to have answered/working.. 1. if this could work on android phones 2. create a working qr code for this url so people can scan with ios devices and have it open automatically
Good luck and I hope this helps everyone!
I tried Alessandro's way but did not succeed - the number he mentioned is new every time.
I tried fb://profile?id={pageId} and it worked in my case. {pageId} is simple page id number without any tricks. Facebook app version is 5.0.1
