Will retrieving Invoice documents as PDFs be available in QuickBooks API V3? If so, will QuickBooks Desktop be supported as well? In V2 (Intuit Data Services), only QuickBooks Online was supported.
It is not available in v3 yet. Currently only in v2. It will be supported eventually but not in the next 6 months. You can of course use v3 and v2 only to save an invoice as pdf if necessary.
thanks

I've tried for hours now to figure this out but I'm completely stuck.
I have been approved for My Business APi and I created a service account and downloaded the json file for authentication.
I am using google-api-php-client and with google-api-my-business-php-client which provides the 'Google_Service_MyBusiness' class for use.
My code looks like this: -
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
require_once __DIR__ . '/google-api-my-business-php-client/MyBusiness.php';
putenv('GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS='.__DIR__.'/myfile.json');
$client = new Google_Client();
$client->useApplicationDefaultCredentials();
if (getenv('GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS')) {
// use the application default credentials
$client->useApplicationDefaultCredentials();
} else {
echo missingServiceAccountDetailsWarning();
return;
}
$client->setApplicationName("my_app");
$client->addScope('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.business.manage');
$service = new Google_Service_MyBusiness($client);
$accounts = $service->accounts;
$accountsList = $accounts->listAccounts()->getAccounts();
But all that I ever get back is
Google_Service_Exception: That’s an error. The requested URL <code>/v3/accounts</code> was not found on this server. That’s all we know.
I notice that the documentation is now v4, i.e. v4/accounts, could this be the issue? Are these libraries out of date? How can I retrieve account and review data with v3?
Any help would be appreciated.
My end goal is the retrieve all the reviews for a location but right now just trying to get this to work as a prelude.
Answering my own question - I think the main issue is it turns out that My Business api doesn't support service accounts, you need to use oauth2.
Turns out that V3 is depreciated also so the libray I was using for MyBusiness API is useless, the other one works fine for updating access tokens.
For the reviews I am just using Curl and Simply building the URL with the ?access-token= value on the end of it.
For example to list all reviews
https://mybusiness.googleapis.com/v4/accounts/[acc-number]/locations/[location-id]/reviews?access_token=
My inexperience has left me short of understanding how to hide an API Key. Sorry, but I've been away from web development for 15 years as I specialized in relational databases, and a lot has changed.
I've read a ton of articles, but don't understand how to take advantage of them. I want to put my YouTube API key(s) on the server, but have the client able to use them w/o exposure. I don't understand how setting an API Key on my server (ISP provided) enables the client to access the YouTube channel associated with the project. Can someone explain this to me?
I am not sure what you want to do but for a project I worked on I needed to get a specific playlist from YouTube and make the contents public to the visitors of the website.
What I did is a sort of proxy. I set up a php file contains the api key, and then have the end user get the YT content through this php file.
The php file gets the content form YT using curl.
I hope it helps.
EDIT 1
The way to hide the key is to put it in a PHP file on the server.
This PHP file will the one connecting to youtube and retrieving the data you want on your client page.
This example of code, with the correct api key and correct playlist id will get a json file with the 10 first tracks of the play list.
The $resp will have the json data. To extract it, it has to be decoded for example into an associative array. Once in the array it can be easily mixed in to the html that will be rendered on the client browser.
<?php
$apiKey = "AIza...";
$results = "10";
$playList = "PL0WeB6UKDIHRyXXXXXXXXXX...";
$request = "https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?part=id,contentDetails,snippet&maxResults=" . $results .
"&fields=items(contentDetails%2FvideoId%2Cid%2Csnippet(position%2CpublishedAt%2Cthumbnails%2Fdefault%2Ctitle))" .
"&playlistId=" . $playList .
"&key=" . $apiKey;
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
CURLOPT_URL => $request,
CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER => false
));
$resp = curl_exec($curl);
if (curl_errno($curl)) {
$status = "CURL_ERROR";
}else{
// check the HTTP status code of the request
$resultStatus = curl_getinfo($curl, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
if ($resultStatus == 200) {
$status = "OK";
//Do something with the $resp which is in JSON format.
//Like decoding it into an associative array
} else {
$status = "YT_ERROR";
}
}
curl_close($curl);
?>

<!-- your html here -->
</html>
Note: CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER is set to false. This is in development. For prod it should be true.
Also note that using the api this way, you can restrict the calls to your api key bounding them to your domain. You do that in the googla api console. (Tip for production)
Good Day, I Try to Get Channel ID using service account, because I´m using it on other scopes on my project. But when I do request process its give me the service account information. i´m using php btw
Many thanks in advance and any help will be appreciated.
p.d. i´m replace real account info for dummy text.
And of Course the code :
$credentials_file = $this->key_dir . $this->key_file['title'];
$client = new \Google_Client();
$client->setAuthConfig($credentials_file);
$client->addScope('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube');
$client->setApplicationName("Youtube Analytics");
$client->refreshTokenWithAssertion();
$token = $client->getAccessToken();
$accessToken = $token['access_token'];
if (!empty($accessToken)) {
$service = new \Google_Service_YouTube($client);
$data = $service->channels->listChannels('id,snippet', array('mine' => 'true'));
echo "id: " . $data->items[0]->id . "<br>";
echo "Kind: " . $data->items[0]->kind . "<br>";
echo "Snippet -> title : " . $data->items[0]->snippet['title'] . "<br>";
}
AFAIK, Youtube API doesn't support Service Account Flow. As described in the document :
The service account flow supports server-to-server interactions that do not access user information. However, the YouTube Data API does not support this flow. Since there is no way to link a Service Account to a YouTube account, attempts to authorize requests with this flow will generate a NoLinkedYouTubeAccount error.
Also in the Youtube v3 Google Service Account Access issue, "There are no plans to add support for Service Account authorization to YouTube Data API v3 calls." As stated in the related SO question #21890982 and #21057358 : you'll need your own account for that and you can create an authentication for services using V3 without user intervention.
Hope this helps.
I am creating website page using Google drive API which do following stuff:--
provide user set of pdf file which is stored in my Google drive without any type of Login / authentication by any means and file are public.
who visit that page and if he/she want to download that file/pdf then he/she can do so just by clicking on it without any signup and login.
i have no idea how to getting started with it...is it necessary to use OAuth 2...
in simple word i want to use google drive as file hosting site to host my file and reach users through website.
please give me your valuable solution...
thanks
For php look here for a full example and video. You have to download the Google Drive API for the programming language you are using. Then use that API to help you auth and access files. Here is an example from Google developers page using PHP
<?php
require_once 'google-api-php-client/src/Google_Client.php';
require_once 'google-api-php-client/src/contrib/Google_DriveService.php';
$client = new Google_Client();
// Get your credentials from the console
$client->setClientId('YOUR_CLIENT_ID');
$client->setClientSecret('YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET');
$client->setRedirectUri('urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob');
$client->setScopes(array('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive'));
$service = new Google_DriveService($client);
$authUrl = $client->createAuthUrl();
//Request authorization
print "Please visit:\n$authUrl\n\n";
print "Please enter the auth code:\n";
$authCode = trim(fgets(STDIN));
// Exchange authorization code for access token
$accessToken = $client->authenticate($authCode);
$client->setAccessToken($accessToken);
//Insert a file
$file = new Google_DriveFile();
$file->setTitle('My document');
$file->setDescription('A test document');
$file->setMimeType('text/plain');
$data = file_get_contents('document.txt');
$createdFile = $service->files->insert($file, array(
'data' => $data,
'mimeType' => 'text/plain',
));
print_r($createdFile);
?>
You will want to use the PHP client library located here: https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/php/
You will then want to authenticate against google using auth2.
Then you can make calls to the Drive API https://developers.google.com/drive/v2/reference/ using the PHP client library.
Our project lets users upload videos to OUR public youtube channel when they are signed into our session. We do not want to require additional OAuth2 verification, and instead follow the follow of Google API v2.
My code (php) and error are below, but my general question is: can my server make the insert-video POST using my API key/secrets without requiring the user to authenticate.
This question - Google Calendar API v3 hardcoded credentials - is very similar. Howevr if CURLing Google for the access_token is the only answer, i'll be disappointed. Thanks regardless.

First off, letting arbitrary users upload videos into a "master" YouTube channel is not recommended, for the reasons outlined in this blog post.
That being said, if you're determined to do it, then you need to include an access token associated with your channel in each upload request. The appropriate way to get a fresh access token (they expire after an hour) is to take a refresh token that you've previously generated and stored somewhere and make an HTTP request to the appropriate URL to get back an access token, as explained in the OAuth 2 documentation. There's no way around that—I'm not sure whether there's a native method in the Google APIs PHP client library that will automate the process for you, but that's what needs to happen under the hood.
The information in Google Calendar API v3 hardcoded credentials does seem relevant.
