I am trying to query some XML from a hotel database using Ruby, and am getting the results:
403 Developer Inactive
I used the code:
require 'net/http'
url = URI.parse('URL of the HTTP query')
req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url.path)
res = Net::HTTP.start(url.host, url.port) {|http|
http.request(req)
}
puts res.body
I would give the actual URL, but it contains the API key/etc...so I really cannot divulge it.
Is there anything wrong with the code or might it be on the company needing to activate the key?
Thanks
403 is the HTTP status code FORBIDDEN, which leads me to believe you have a problem authenticating your API request, maybe because of a wrong key or something.

I am using trello api to attach an image to a card. the documentation says
require 'uri'
require 'net/http'
url = URI("https://api.trello.com/1/cards/id/attachments")
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url)
response = http.request(request)
puts response.read_body
After putting my key and my token, I tried to upload a file and the binary data goes in the url itself, not only it seems too ugly but it also doesn't work because the request is really too long. I've tried using multipart and rest client gems from in my code to upload and attach a file to a trello card but everytime I get errors like bad request or SSL errors, can anyone please give me a piece of code that really works? thanks
actually I am sending the image data via AJAX (I'm generating it from a charjs view), so the data sent is binary, it would be better if the solution upload an image from binary data.
Their documentation does indeed encourage you to add the whole encoded file object into the URL, which I also find ugly. I wonder if it will work to add it into the POST body instead? Try this:
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url)
request.set_form_data({file: put_encoded_file_contents_here})
I have a strange issue when trying to POST to a third party website.
When testing using Postman, I get a correct response. However, when trying the same POST via Ruby code, I get a cryptic HTML response page from the website. HTTP Response code is 200. It's just that the website's internal logic throws an error, which should'nt happen if I'm sending the exact same request via code than the request I'm sending via Postman.
Url is: http://www.sunat.gob.pe/cl-at-ittipcam/tcS01Alias
The POST can be generated in the browser when choosing month ("mes") and day ("dia") in the dropboxes shown in that webpage. I have also inspected the network call in this case in the browser console and can find nothing funny.
My code comes straight from the one generated by Postman. I have also tried HTTParty gem with the same error response
require 'uri'
require 'net/http'
url = URI("http://www.sunat.gob.pe/cl-at-ittipcam/tcS01Alias")
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url)
request["cache-control"] = 'no-cache'
request["content-type"] = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
request["postman-token"] = '3ba1963c-2874-89c2-5e4d-e5be2c13a560'
request.body = "mes=05&anho=2016"
response = http.request(request)
puts response.read_body
A correct response should show an HTML table filled with values. Instead I'm getting an HTML error page.
Any help figuring out the issue would be appreciated.
Edit: the HTML response is not really relevant, since it is a business logic error, not an HTTP error, but here it is:
The thing is: this internal logic error is being triggered because something is different when sending the POST request via code than when sending it via Postman, and I can't figure out what.

You need to probably use a GET request to get the table. The server is not responding on the POST request because it has not been configured to respond to it.
The solution is to use:
uri = URI('http://www.sunat.gob.pe/cl-at-ittipcam/tcS01Alias')
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri)
instead of the code with Post.new

Issue:
Trying to complete the authorization and token request process to Blizzard's Battle Net Community API. While I can get the authorization_code returned, when I attempt to construct a POST back to the token endpoint it keeps telling me that its an invalid request/internal server error or just returns back the following object: <Net::HTTPFound 302 Found readbody=true> which has a blank string for a response body. Details for how Blizzard recommends handling the OAuth 2 process are located here: Battle.net OAuth 2 Guide. The omniauth-bnet gem is the one Blizzard suggested but doesn't seem to handle the entire OAuth authorization and token process but I'll freely admit I'm brand new when it comes to anything OAuth related so I could be wrong.
Any help you all can provide would be very welcome!
Controller Code:
def index
client_id = ENV[BNET_CLIENT_ID]
client_secret = ENV[BNECT_CLIENT_SECRET]
uri = URI('https://us.battle.net/auth/token?
redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2f127%2f0%2f0%2f1%3A3001%2Fauth%2Fbnet%2Fcallback
&grant_type=authorization_code
&code=' + params["code"])
req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri)
req.basic_auth(client_id, client_secret)
res = Net::HTTP.start(uri.host, uri.port, use_ssl: uri.scheme == 'https') {|http| http.request(req)}
#bnet_response = res.body
end
Process:
Click link on index.html page which triggers the authorization process to start by sending a GET request to https://us.battle.net/oauth/authorize?client_id=&client_secret=&redirect_uri=&response_type=code
BNet API accepts the request and redirects user to Battle.Net Login screen
User authorizes app and is redirected (via redirect_uri) back to the index page with query parameters for the authorization_code
My app SHOULD make a POST request using the controller code above and the response should contain the actual access token.
This is just some hastily cobbled together code while I'm trying to get this working. I'll clean it up once I get over this little speed bump. I wouldn't hardcode the URI and such normally, just getting frustrated with things.
Things I've tried:
Using Rest-Client : There's a callback redirect that it can't handle apparently
Testing Postman : When using their OAuth 2 Authorization it works just fine, also works fine if I use Postman to get the authorization code (GET) and token (POST), so I'm assuming things work on the Blizz side and my code just sucks.
config/routes.rb
Rails.application.routes.draw do
root to: 'pages#index'
get '/auth/:provider/callback', to: 'pages#index'
end
I'm not familiar with the Battle.net API, however reading your process it seems you are getting an authorization code back from the redirect in the form of a query parameter (accessed by params[:code]) correct?
You also mention that this works using Postman indicating the flaw must be somewhere in the code.
I would suggest using the following snippet and let me know if it works. I would encourage using puts url after url = ... code to ensure the URI looks exactly as you want it (and has the correct code, client id, secret, redirect_uri).
require 'uri'
require 'net/http'
# Remember to change the redirect uri to match yours
redirect_uri = 'https://my-domain-name.com/auth/bnet/callback'
# Double check the environment variable names for BNET ID / Secret
url = URI("https://us.battle.net/oauth/token?redirect_uri=#{redirect_uri}&code=#{params[:code]}" \
"&grant_type=authorization_code&scope=wow.profile&client_id=#{ENV['BNET_CLIENT_ID']}" \
"&client_secret=#{ENV['BNET_CLIENT_SECRET']}")
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url)
response = http.request(request)
puts response.read_body
Ensure your domain is accessible over https as this seems to be required.
I am an newbie to Ruby on Rails. I have a url which points to a JSON output. When I ran the URL directly like http://user:pass#myurl.com/json, I am getting the response without any authendication. However http://myurl.com/json requires a username and password through a standard apache pop up authentication box. I have tried to access this URL from my rails controller like the following:
result = JSON.parse(open("http://user:pass#myurl.com/json").read)
When I try to do, I just get an error which says ArgumentError, userinfo not supported. [RFC3986]
Also I have tried the below one. I am getting a 401-Unauthorized error
open("http://...", :http_basic_authentication=>[user, password])
How can I make a request that works in this case. Any help would be appreciated.
You need to use Net::HTTP (or some other HTTP client).
require 'net/http'
require 'uri'
require 'json'
uri = URI('http://myurl.com/json')
req = Net::HTTP::Get.new( uri )
req.basic_auth 'user', 'pass'
res = Net::HTTP.start(uri.hostname, uri.port) {|http|
http.request(req)
}
result = JSON.parse(res.body)
puts result
I am trying to delete a video on YouTube from a Ruby on Rails application. I am following these instructions, from the YouTube API docs:
DELETE /feeds/api/users/default/uploads/VIDEO_ID HTTP/1.1
Host: gdata.youtube.com
Content-Type: application/atom+xml
Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN
GData-Version: 2
X-GData-Key: key=DEVELOPER_KEY
I am not very familiar with Ruby's Net::HTTP class, but it seems that no matter what I try I cannot get the request to work properly. I have looked carefully at the many other StackOverflow questions regarding deleting videos from YouTube, but none that I could find address this particular problem. My code is below, where I've replaced the user name, video ID, access token, and developer key.
url = URI.parse("https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/[USER_NAME]/uploads/[VIDEO_ID]")
post_args = { 'Host' => 'gdata.youtube.com', 'GData-Version' => '2', 'Content-Type' => 'application/atom+xml', 'Authorization' => "Bearer [ACCESS_TOKEN]", 'X-GData-Key' => 'key=[DEVELOPER_KEY]' }
req = Net::HTTP::Delete.new(url.path)
req.set_form_data(post_args)
httpreq = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
httpreq.use_ssl = true
resp = httpreq.start {|http| http.request(req) }
Checking the response, I get an Error 400 (Bad Request) from YouTube. The response simply says "Your client has issued a malformed or illegal request. That's all we know".
Is there something wrong with the request I'm making? I've checked it against the template time and time again and I can't see anything wrong with it. I know that my access token and developer key are working because I can make other requests like video uploads just fine.
I printed the debug output from the HTTP request, and as far as I can tell it looks fine:
<- "DELETE /feeds/api/users/[USER_NAME]/uploads/[VIDEO_ID] HTTP/1.1\r\nAccept: */*\r\nUser-Agent: Ruby\r\nContent-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\nHost: gdata.youtube.com\r\nContent-Length: 275\r\n\r\n"
<- "Host=gdata.youtube.com&GData-Version=2&Content-Type=application%2Fatom%2Bxml&Authorization=Bearer+[ACCESS_TOKEN]&X-GData-Key=key%3D[DEVELOPER_KEY]"
The only thing I could see as a possible problem was that in the first line of the request, the "Content-Type" is set to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded". Again, not being an expert on HTTP requests I'm not sure what the difference is between the Content-Type set in the first line and the Content-Type that I explicitly set as "application/atom+xml" which appears on the second line of the request. After some digging, though, I found out that the set_form_data method automatically sets the content type as "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", so I tried adding the following line to my code:
req.content_type = 'application/atom+xml'
right after the line
req.set_form_data(post_args)
When I do this, I do see a corresponding change in the request:
<- "DELETE /feeds/api/users/[USER_ID]/uploads/[VIDEO_ID] HTTP/1.1\r\nAccept: */*\r\nUser-Agent: Ruby\r\nContent-Type: application/atom+xml\r\nHost: gdata.youtube.com\r\nContent-Length: 275\r\n\r\n"
<- "Host=gdata.youtube.com&GData-Version=2&Content-Type=application%2Fatom%2Bxml&Authorization=Bearer+[ACCESS_TOKEN]&X-GData-Key=key%3D[DEVELOPER_KEY]"
However, I still get the exact same response from YouTube. Error 400, bad request. What the heck is going on here??
Of course, 10 minutes after asking my question, I find out the answer. I did not understand the distinction between the HTTP header fields and form arguments, which I don't feel so bad about since it's not explained anywhere either in the Ruby documentation on Net::HTTP or in the YouTube API. The reason I was confused was because for uploading a video, you can provide all the values like Authorization and Content-Type as form data, so the above approach from my question works fine. For deleting a video, you have to provide those values as part of the header, not form data. At least, that is now my understanding.
Anyway, in case anyone ever runs into this problem, this solved it for me:
req = Net::HTTP::Delete.new(url.path)
req['GData-Version'] = '2' # this syntax sets header fields & values
req['Authorization'] = "..."
req['X-GData-Key'] = "..."
req.content_type = 'application/atom+xml'
httpreq = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
httpreq.use_ssl = true
resp = httpreq.start {|http| http.request(req) }
Another case where one explanatory sentence from the authors of the documentation would have saved two hours of wasted time. If I had a nickel...
