I am trying to call Twitter's REST API from Google Apps Script.
The code I am using is copied one to one from here:
https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/services/external
and specifically:
function test() {
var consumerKey = 'XXXX'; // Copied from my twitter app setting.
var consumerSecret = 'XXXXX'; // Copied from my twitter app setting.
var oauthConfig = UrlFetchApp.addOAuthService('twitter');
oauthConfig.setAccessTokenUrl('http://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token');
oauthConfig.setRequestTokenUrl('http://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token');
oauthConfig.setAuthorizationUrl('http://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize');
oauthConfig.setConsumerKey(consumerKey);
oauthConfig.setConsumerSecret(consumerSecret);
var options = {
'oAuthServiceName' : 'twitter',
'oAuthUseToken' : 'always'
};
var url = 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?count=5&include_entities=false&result_type=recent&q=hello';
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
var tweets = JSON.parse(response.getContentText());
Logger.log(tweets)
}
Nevertheless, I get Oauth ERROR every time I run it.
My settings in the twitter app allows for "Read and Write"
Any suggestions
Just go to your twitter application and set the callback url as
https://script.google.com
This is now best handled through the following open source Google Apps Script library:
https://github.com/googlesamples/apps-script-oauth1
The example in the documentation is twitter itself (because it's probably the only remaining user of oauth v1 out there...)

New to Google Apps Script, trying to retrieve data from a URL with UrlFetchApp.fetch but the URL length is limited to 2kB per call (https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/services/quotas).
Thus, with a long URL I get the error Limit Exceeded: URLFetch URL Length..
Example:

var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url);
Is there any way I can get around this limit, maybe by using another library to make the GET request?
EDIT
Jack Brown's solution works well if I run the function from the script editor. In order to make the functionality accessible as a google-spreadsheets function, I used the following:
Using the UrlShortener API in a custom Spreadsheet function
You can use Url Shortener API to create a short URL and pass it to URLFetchApp like so:
function shortenUrl() {

Make sure you have selected URL shortener API under Resources>Advanced Google Services> URL shortener API v1 (set to on) and also enabled the same in developers console. For more details refer here

Google shortener seems to have some issues with a certain type of URL. This is a more generalized solution. You can select different providers by modifying provider key in the payload below. More details can be found here

On March 30, 2018, Google deprecated the URL Shortener service that was used in the accepted answer.
I wrote a script to use the Firebase Dynamic Links Short Links API service.
The docs are here if you want to cook your own.
I have a Google Maps Engine project where a datasource can be updated via Google Forms/Google Apps Script. I know that there is a way to configure OAuth in GAS (https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference/url-fetch/o-auth-config) but I can't figure out how to make it work after spending hours reading through the GAS and GME documentation. I have been able to get around it using the OAuth Playground to obtain an access token, but I need to manually refresh each hour. I know the answer is probably simple, but I am new to OAuth and I can't find a simple guide out there to help me.
How can I get my Google Apps Script to play nicely with Google Maps Engine through OAuth?
I have included how I currently access GME below:
/* This function is called when a new provider is added through the "Medical Providers" form
It sends an HTTP request to Google Maps Engine to add the new provider to the map */
function addNewtoTable(row){
var aPIKey = "MY_API_KEY";
var bearer = "ACCESS_TOKEN_FROM_OAUTH_PLAYGROUND";
var projectID = "MY_PROJECT_ID";
var tableID = "MY_TABLE_ID";
//tutorial here https://developers.google.com/maps-engine/documentation/tutorial
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Providers");
var address = sheet.getRange(row,2).getValue();
var response = Maps.newGeocoder().geocode(address);
for (var j = 0; j < response.results.length; j++) {
var result = response.results[j];
//Logger.log('%s: %s, %s', result.formatted_address, result.geometry.location.lat,
// result.geometry.location.lng);
};
var lat = result.geometry.location.lat;
var long = result.geometry.location.lng;
var name= '"'+sheet.getRange(row,1).getValue()+'"';
var phone= '"'+sheet.getRange(row,4).getValue().toString()+'"';
var email= '"'+sheet.getRange(row,3).getValue()+'"';
var inbounds= '"'+sheet.getRange(row,5).getValue().toString()+'"';
var outbounds = '"'+sheet.getRange(row,6).getValue().toString()+'"';
var lastIn = '" '+sheet.getRange(row,7).getValue().toString()+' "';
var lastOut = '" '+sheet.getRange(row,8).getValue().toString()+' "';
var gxid = '"'+sheet.getRange(row,9).getValue().toString()+'"';
//HTTP request goes here
var payload = '{features:[{type: "Feature",geometry:{type: "Point",coordinates: ['+long+','+lat+']},properties: {gx_id: '+gxid+',name: '+name+',phone:'+phone+',email:'+email+',inbound:'+inbounds+',outbound:'+outbounds+',last_inbound:'+lastIn+',last_outbound:'+lastOut+'}}]}';
Logger.log(payload);
var headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_FROM_OAUTH_PLAYGROUND", "Content-type": "application/json"};
var options ={"method" : "post","headers" : headers, "payload" : payload, "muteHttpExceptions" : true};
var httpresponse = UrlFetchApp.fetch("https://www.googleapis.com/mapsengine/v1/tables/MY_TABLE_ID/features/batchInsert",options);
Logger.log(httpresponse);
if (httpresponse!=""){
MailApp.sendEmail('MY_EMAIL', 'HTTP Request Failed to Send', httpresponse);
};
};
It's certainly possible. The App Script docs have a tutorial explaining how to connect to a remote service using OAuth that uses the Twitter API as an example. This example also shows an OAuth-authorized call being executed.
The main difference in the tutorial for Maps Engine is the first step, where you don't set up with Twitter, you set up in the Developers Console.
You want to create a new OAuth client ID, under APIs & Auth -> Credentials. It's a web application.
Instead of setting the "Callback URL" in Twitter, you'll set the "Authorized Redirect URI" in the console, when creating the client ID. Set the authorized origins to docs.google.com too, just in case.
You'll get your "Consumer Key" and "Consumer Secret" through console.developers.google.com too, they correspond to the Client ID and Client Secret that are referred to in this GME doc.
In addition to the set up, these pointers may help you.
The UrlFetchApp.addOauthService("twitter") calls can use any string as an identifier, there's nothing special about the phrase "twitter", but it needs to match oAuthServiceName
The URLs you need look like they should be these (grabbed from here):
oAuthConfig.setAccessTokenUrl("https://www.google.com/accounts/OAuthGetAccessToken");
oAuthConfig.setRequestTokenUrl("https://www.google.com/accounts/OAuthGetRequestToken?scope="+scope); Scope is explained here.
oAuthConfig.setAuthorizationUrl("https://www.google.com/accounts/OAuthAuthorizeToken");
A little too late for my purposes, but I found that Google themselves made a library for GAS that enables OAuth 2.0. Why this is not included within GAS is beyond me. This also looks to be pretty recent, with some updates as of 5 days ago.
I'm trying to build a Google Apps Script that integrates with Trello, the idea being to use it to push information from spreadsheets and forms into the Trello API and create cards on a pending list on a certain board.
I found another question that pointed me in the right direction, and added in OAuth based on the GAS OAuth Documentation. The problem is I can't post the the board. I run the script, the OAuth prompt fires, and the script completes with no errors. I can also GET data from the private board, so I assume the authorization is working properly.
So, what am I doing wrong that prevents my script from POSTing to Trello?
Here's the code I'm working with:
var trelloKey = [Trello API key];
var trelloSecret = [Trello API key secret];
var trelloList = [the id of the list we're posting to];
var oauthConfig = UrlFetchApp.addOAuthService('trello');
oauthConfig.setAccessTokenUrl('https://trello.com/1/OAuthGetAccessToken');
oauthConfig.setRequestTokenUrl('https://trello.com/1/OAuthGetRequestToken');
oauthConfig.setAuthorizationUrl('https://trello.com/1/OAuthAuthorizeToken');
oauthConfig.setConsumerKey(trelloKey);
oauthConfig.setConsumerSecret(trelloSecret);
function createTrelloCard() {
//POST [/1/cards], Required permissions: write
var payload = {'name': 'apiUploadedCard',
'desc': 'description',
'pos': 'top',
'due': '',
'idList': trelloList};
var url = 'https://api.trello.com/1/cards'
var options = {'method' : 'post',
'payload' : payload,
'oAuthServiceName' : 'trello',
'oAuthUseToken' : 'always'};
UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
}
You just need set fetch options contentType to application/json. I just resolved the same problem by this.
Try adding the scope=read,write in your authorization url.
from:
oauthConfig.setAuthorizationUrl('https://trello.com/1/OAuthAuthorizeToken');
to:
oauthConfig.setAuthorizationUrl("https://trello.com/1/OAuthAuthorizeToken?scope=read,write");
Hello,
I'm trying to acess, perform a post, into Tumblr with Oauth api provided by Tumblr) http://tumblr.com/api). I'm using Google Script and I've tryied too many solutions but anyone worked. To implement i've basaed myself into this(https://developers.google.com/apps-script/articles/twitter_tutorial) Google script twitter tutorial, once on Tumblr API web page they say that twitter api is almost the same that tumblr.
Contextualizing,
I've already set the Oauth class methods with data below and substituted consumer and secret keys with values got from the api i've created.
var oauthConfig = UrlFetchApp.addOAuthService("tumblr");
oauthConfig.setAccessTokenUrl(
"http://www.tumblr.com/oauth/access_token");
oauthConfig.setRequestTokenUrl(
"http://www.tumblr.com/oauth/request_token");
oauthConfig.setAuthorizationUrl(
"http://www.tumblr.com/oauth/authorize");
oauthConfig.setConsumerKey(<i>consumerkey</i>);
oauthConfig.setConsumerSecret(<i>consumerSecret</i>);
Error,
The code below isnt working as it should be.
var requestData = {
"method": "POST",
"oAuthServiceName": "tumbler",
"oAuthUseToken": "always"
};
var result = UrlFetchApp.fetch(
"https://api.tumblr.com/v2/blog/{blog}.tumblr.com/post?type=text&body=word",
requestData);
The Script to Twitter is almost the same and it works. Im able to perform tweets.
var result = UrlFetchApp.fetch(
"https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.json?status=" + tweet,
requestData);
Response From Server
Request failed for returned code 400. Server response: {"meta":{"status":400,"msg":"Bad Request"},"response":{"errors":["Post cannot be empty."]}}
Possible Solutions
A possible solution can work using this information(got from tumblr.com/api):
OAuth
The API supports the OAuth 1.0a Protocol, accepting parameters via the Authorization header, with the HMAC-SHA1 signature method only. There's probably already an OAuth client library for your platform.
My question is, what am I doing wrong?(my post inst empty, i have 2 params). Had anyone had the same problem? Someone has suggestions?
Thank You.
I don't know anything about the tumblr api, but your http post is empty (the oAuth parameters aren't in the post body, they're advanced options), the body of the post needs to go in the "payload" parameter. See the section "Advanced parameters" in the docs. Or, as you aren't using the post can't you use a get request instead? Remove the method: POST parameter (GET is the default).
Thank You very much Daniel. It worked now!!
Everybody that want use Tumblr + Google Script API + oAuth can use de code below to perform posts.
I created I Google Spreadsheet and then a script there. Before to be able to post I neded to create and app into tumblr.com/api and get secret and consumer keys. Also I've deployed the Google script as an web app(ensure that the version is the last one(the final code)) before to create a new version. After that you go tu publish > deploy as web app !
That twitter tutorial I put on my first question is the only path you need to conclude your job.
function authorize() {
var oauthConfig = UrlFetchApp.addOAuthService("tumblr");
oauthConfig.setAccessTokenUrl(

oauthConfig.setRequestTokenUrl(

oauthConfig.setAuthorizationUrl(
"http://www.tumblr.com/oauth/authorize");
oauthConfig.setConsumerKey(getConsumerKey());
oauthConfig.setConsumerSecret(getConsumerSecret());
var requestData = {
"oAuthServiceName": "tumblr",
"oAuthUseToken": "always"
};
var result = UrlFetchApp.fetch(
"http://api.tumblr.com/v2/blog/{your_blog}.tumblr.com/posts/queue",
requestData);
}
function doGet(e) {
var tweet = e.parameter.tumblr;
var app = UiApp.createApplication().setTitle("Approved");
var panel = app.createFlowPanel();
authorize();
var encodedTweet = encodeURIComponent(tweet);
var payload =
{
"body" : encodedTweet,
"type" : "text"
};
var requestData = {
"method" : "POST",
"oAuthServiceName": "tumblr",
"oAuthUseToken": "always",
"payload" : payload
};
try {
var result = UrlFetchApp.fetch(
"https://api.tumblr.com/v2/blog/{your_blog}.tumblr.com/post",
requestData);
panel.add(app.createLabel().setText("You have approved: \"" + tweet + "\""));
} catch (e) {
Logger.log(e);
panel.add(app.createLabel().setText(e));
}
app.add(panel);
return app;
}
I am trying to use Google Apps Script to query the Yelp Search Api and put the results into a spreadsheet. I having issues making the call to yelp using this example as a model:
var consumerKey = "... register your app with Twitter ...";
var consumerSecret = "... register your app with Twitter ...");
var oauthConfig = UrlFetchApp.addOAuthService("twitter");
oauthConfig.setAccessTokenUrl("http://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token");
oauthConfig.setRequestTokenUrl("http://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token");
oauthConfig.setAuthorizationUrl("http://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize");
oauthConfig.setConsumerKey(consumerKey);
oauthConfig.setConsumerSecret(consumerSecret);
// "twitter" value must match the argument to "addOAuthService" above.
var options = {
"oAuthServiceName" : "twitter",
"oAuthUseToken" : "always"
};
var url = "http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json";
var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
var tweets = JSON.parse(response.getContentText());
// Handle tweets
https://developers.google.com/apps-script/class_oauthconfig
This class only has methods for setting the access token URLs which Yelp doesn't appear to provide. They just provide the Token and Token Secret directly. I assumed that these would be set like the Consumer Key and Secret but I haven't found a way.
The Yelp API uses oAuth1.0a to authorize and identifiy the API caller not the end user that might be using the application. This is not like a Twitter scenario where you have to let your users login. Therefore, you dont need any access token URLs or other details. You are able to create all the necessary tokens to get started. Here is how your API console should look like once everything is setup (I've obfuscated my keys for obvious reasons) -
Now, you'll need to make the API calls from the server side using UrlFetchApp and not use the jQuery AJAX APIs as that Yelp API doesn't seem to allow CORS and JSONP is not allowed with HtmlService. Otherwise you'll get errors like this below in the console -
Lastly, here is some sample code to get you started. I based these off their JavaScript sample -
var auth = {
consumerKey: "YOURKEY",
consumerSecret: "YOURSECRET",
accessToken: "YOURTOKEN",
accessTokenSecret: "YOURTOKENSECRET",
};
var terms = 'food';
var near = 'San+Francisco';
var accessor = {
consumerSecret: auth.consumerSecret,
tokenSecret: auth.accessTokenSecret
};
var parameters = [];
parameters.push(['term', terms]);
parameters.push(['location', near]);

//have my JSON object, do whatever we want here, like add to spreadsheets
I also added a couple of GS script files with the contents of the oAuth JS code and SHA1 JS code from the links provided (just copy paste into new files in the script editor). However, if you feel adventurous, you could also use the Utilities APIs to manually sign and encode the necessary oAuth params.
Hope this helps. I was able to get Yelp responses with all the provided samples.
