So what I've got now is hosted at http://exonia.meteor.com/ -- I've got Google authentication all working, and I've got the two YouTube scopes I want added and working as well. However, when I try to access any of the data from the YouTube API in the Users Collection, the only thing I have is the full name of the user, from their YouTube Profile.
How can I access the YouTube data?
EDIT: I've now deployed to the domain mentioned above, my apologies--was deploying to a custom domain and forgot about that one.
If everything is going as intended, you should have access to the Youtube information in the server. If that's the case, then you need to tell Meteor to also expose that information to the client by publishing it (only basic info is published by default).
For instance, if you want to add some extra fields to the user object from the data you've received from Youtube, do something like this:
Meteor.publish("extra_fields", function() {
return Meteor.users.find(
{_id: this.userId},
{fields: {fieldYouWantToPublish: 1}} // 1 indicates you want to include that field
);
});
Meteor will automatically merge the requested fields into the user object for you. Don't forget to subscribe to it!

I have a task toget some data from an external supplier.
They have a Rest OData API. I have to connect using a subscription-key(APIKey).
When creating the OData LService, I add an Auth Header: "subscription-key" and in the Value field, I enter my key. After saving, I create a new dataset, and the OData LinkedService, provides me with the remote tables. I can choose the table I want and after that I create a pipeline to copy data from that table to my Azure SQL server.
This works fantastic :-)
However, after closing my browser and re-open it, the subscription key that I have entered earlier on the linked service, is now replaced with stars as it is a securestring. When I now run my pipeline, it will think that my key is the ten stars that have replaced my real key.
What am I doing wrong here ?
Also I would prefer to get my value from the KeyVault, but it seems that this is not possible on ODat connections....
Hope someone is able to provide some insight here :-)

From my testing I did not get any error on re-running. However coming to dynamic keys - I was not able to achieve it using the ODATA linked service.
Alternatively, if you can hit the ODATA endpoint with REST / HTTP Connector
You could - have a Web Activity to get the keys from the Key Vault and Set in the Variable.
WEB Activity URL : https://<your-keyvalut-name>.vault.azure.net/secrets/<your-secret-name>;
You could access the output of the web Activity using : #activity('Web1').output.value & Store in a variable.
You can reference this variable as the SUBSCRIPTION KEY for the subsequent steps in the REST/HTTP dataset.
You could pass it along the additional headers
My calls to the API to get users work just fine, but the default URL does not return the home phone number, or the ip phone number.
/Users/jo.bloggs#example.com
adding parameters works for other things
/Users/jo.bloggs#example.com/?$select=id,displayName,mail,postalCode,businessPhones
works too, I have tried homephone, homephones, homePhone, homePhones and ipphone, ipphones, ipPhone, ipPhones but do not get those properties returned. We can see the properties filled in on our local Active Directory, so they are in there.
Looking at the docs I don't see mention of home or ip phones https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/user?view=graph-rest-1.0 but I am hoping I am missing something.
To extend on my comment
For some reason the fieldname ipPhone does not work, only a prefixed
version with a 33 character hash in it extension_<33chars>_ipPhone. I
don't have direct access to the system, but have been told its been
done correctly, so it works enough for us
The URL path we have is now:
/Users/user.name#example.com/?$select=id,displayName,mail,homePhone,mobilePhone,businessPhones,ipPhone,profile,streetAddress,postalCode,extension_e48de7ec5b11c947e3006271ff83029_ipPhone,extension_e48de7ec5b11c947e3006271ff83029_homePhone
The codes for both of our fields fields are the same.
I presume the codes for other orgs will be different, but just in case I have not used our actual ones here.
Some attributes (such as ipPhone) that are synchronized by default might not be exposed using the Microsoft Graph API. In these cases, you can use the Azure AD Connect directory extension feature to synchronize the attribute to Azure AD.
This might seem rather basic, it seems like it should be the simplest possible API call to make with any video call provider.
I need to:
Get an API key for my web application.
Create a meeting link with the video call provider using the key.
Share that link with an external user via e-mail (or SMS, or whatever, my app does that bit).
Redirect then internal user to the link (possibly in an <iframe>).
Optionally end the meeting afterwards so the link can't be re-used.
Optionally report on who attended and for how long.
It seems like that should be fairly simple (or at least straightforward), and for every other provider I've looked at it is, but for Teams I have struggled to get started.
For instance, in Skype this is (or used to be) simply a POST to https://api.join.skype.com/v1/meetnow/createjoinlinkguest.
I think the API key needs to be generated in Azure, and then the meeting request needs to be made via Microsoft Graph but it also appears like it is not possible to use this API unless a delegated user - i.e. users would have to sign in via their "work or school account".
I think that would mean switching our entire user model over to Microsoft's, a prohibitively large amount of work just to generate video call links.
Is there a way to generate these links without requiring the user to sign in via Microsoft?
Is this only possible via an Azure application instance and Graph API? It seems a very long way round compared to any other provider?
I bought a nest thermostat as I thought it would be able to give me detailed data to showing the target temp and the actual as well as time etc. I needed this for various reasons.
However, it seems the official API "Works with Nest" was closed by Google. I've been able to get postman to ping the same location that the Google Nest Webapp hits and get back the data I need. I want to create a simple webapp to keep polling and save the data locally. However, I'm unable to find the OAuth Client Secret that the Nest Webapp uses to get the authorization code. I had to login via the webapp to get the code in one of the request and then test it out using postman.
Is there any other API that will allow my to poll this data for my Nest easier?
If there isn't another API, is there a way to get the Client ID and Client Secret form the Nest Webapp so I can drop that in mine to use? (I know its hacky, but am I think I'm out of options)
I have access to a YouTube CMS account (for an MCN). On YouTube I can do lots and lots of things with it and this also includes downloading CSV reports which contain detailed information about earnings.
However I want to do some automatic processing of that data and thus access the data using an API instead of a manual CSV download. It looks like the YouTube Analytics Content Owner Reports should contain these data as well, thus I tried to get some data from this API (for now only using the API Explorer) but the only thing I was able to get was a "Forbidden" response.
The API Explorer tells me that for a CMS account I need to specify contentOwner==OWNER_NAME but there is nowhere an explanation what that OWNER_NAME would be. I tried to just insert the displayed name of my CMS account, replacing spaces with underscores, but no success. How do I find out what my owner name is?
Additionally, when I authenticate using OAuth I receive as usual the list of accounts where I can choose which one to use (e.g. all the YouTube channels I am a manager of), but the CMS account is not listed. However if I go to YouTube I can click on the top right corner and then switch to the CMS. No idea if that is important...
Then again, maybe I am totally on the wrong track, because I want to get the reports for all channels connected to my MCN but that does not mean that I own the content. So maybe I am no content owner? In this case: Which is the correct way to request the reports from the API?
First of all, the CMS account is not a separate account you can log in via Oath. It is more like a privilege and it is connected to one of your google/youtube accounts. This is in contrast to youtube's regular channel-management, where each channel has it's own login credentials.
I attached a screenshot of my youtube account-selector-view, where the CMS belongs to the account name#email.com, which is also the account you have to use for oauth authorization to access your CMS reports.
Furthermore you can see the name of the CMS, in this case it "CMSName". So, generally this is the name you would use for contentOwner==CMSName. However, your CMS Name seems to include whitespaces. Unfortunately, i cannot reconstruct this case because of missing admin-rights, but i would suggest you the _ for whitespaces too, because " " and "%20" do not map the regular expression for valid params.
But you said, that you had no success by trying it. But there are too error scenarios:
403 Forbidden: The name of the CMS could either be wrong or the selected OAth account does not have the required privileges. Do you have all required Scopes and selected the correct account?
400 Bad Request: This happens when the request is invalid per se. So if you choose contentOwner==CMSName as ids param, a filter parameter is always required, e.g. channel==[ChannelIdForWhichIHaveCMSRights]. So, a API request, that should generally work, would look like this: https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/analytics/v1/reports?ids=contentOwner%3D%3D[CONTENTOWNER_ID]&start-date=2015-01-01&end-date=2015-01-15&metrics=views&filters=channel%3D%3D[CHANNEL_ID_WITH_CMS_RIGHTS]&access_token=[OATH_TOKEN_FOR_RIGHT_ACCOUNT]
If both cases won't work for you and you're still getting 403 errors, let us do some debugging and try to fetch the content Owner Id. I will now introduce the YouTube Content ID API https://developers.google.com/youtube/partner/.
A few words in advance: You have to activate the API in your developer console, like any other API you want to use for your app. BUT:
Note: The YouTube Content ID API is intended for use by YouTube content partners and is not accessible to all developers or to all YouTube users. If you do not see the YouTube Content ID API as one of the services listed in the Google Developers Console, see www.youtube.com/partner to learn more about the YouTube Partner Program.
You don't see it in the list auf available APIs, unless your account is connected to a CMS and some time has past... It takes 7-14 days unless the Content ID API is available for your account. This is a information i got from the support, but they told me, that it is an automated step.
So, now lets assume, that you already have access to the Content ID API.
You can fetch a list of contentOwnerShips that belong to an account. You can use the API explorer https://developers.google.com/youtube/partner/docs/v1/contentOwners/list#try-it just use as param fetchMine=true and authorize with the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtubepartner-content-owner-readonly scope. The response looks like this:
{
"kind": "youtubePartner#contentOwnerList",
"items": [
{
"kind": "youtubePartner#contentOwner",
"id": "[CMS_ID]",
"displayName": "[DisplayName]",
"primaryNotificationEmails": [
"mail#random.xx"
],
"conflictNotificationEmail": "mail#random.xx",
"disputeNotificationEmails": [
"mail#random.xx"
],
"fingerprintReportNotificationEmails": [
"mail#random.xx"
]
}
]
}
This is where you get your CMS_ID from, you can also use it for any API Request as onBehalfOfContentOwner.
To get a list of all channels that belong to the ownership, simply make this request
"https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=contentDetails&managedByMe=true&onBehalfOfContentOwner=[CONTENTOWNER]&access_token=[ACCESS_TOKEN]"
But this request requires the granted "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtubepartner" scope.
Hoe this could help you, feel free to ask further questions.
