Google Sheets API Java program, works on one machine and not the other - 401 Au - google-api

I've got a working basic Java App that uploads some data to a google sheets file of mine.
I uploaded it to a git client, pulled it to my other computer, and it doesn't work on that with a 401
Exception in thread "main" com.google.api.client.auth.oauth2.TokenResponseException: 401 Unauthorized

Any idea what could be different between the two machines? I understand it that if I'm using the same client_secret.json, it should be irrelevant which machine I'm on?
UDPATE 1:
ok, some extra info - i just tried my project at work on my work laptop and it worked fine! On first run it opened a browser window and asked me which google account I wanted to use, I chose the correct one, and that worked. On the laptop I have that didn't work, I wasn't given that option (that I remember) so how can I reset the google account that has been used to authenticate against?
I saw this in my cmd line
Please open the following address in your browser:
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?access_type=offline&client_id=blah-notputtingmyrealid.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=http://localhost:42299/Callback&response_type=code&scope=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets
Attempting to open that address in the default browser now...

Since it's working on your previous computer, the issue might be concerning the location of your client_secret.json. If you check the Java Quickstart setup, there's a part where you need to download the JSON file and place it on your working directory. Since, you're on a new machine, that file is now missing.
g. Click the file_download (Download JSON) button to the right of the
client ID.
h. Move this file to your working directory and rename it
client_secret.json.
Or the access token has expired.

Google Drive API Console: Error saving Drive UI integration page

I have a webapp in production that interacts with Google Drive through Google Drive API.
I need to change some settings in Drive interaction but I can't save.
When I save the Drive UI integration page, I receive this error:
There's a problem at our end.
Please try again. If the problem persists, please let us know using
the "Send feedback" link below. Thanks!
(spying Network console: there is an Internal Server Error in a POST call)
I tried to send feedback for months: nobody answers and the bug is still there.
I tried also to create another project: I can save the first time but then the bug returns.
How can I do? Has someone the same problem?
Is there a way to receive a reply from Google? Is there some workaround?
Thank you.
i think that problem must be Client ID
before adding Client ID, go to the Credentials -> OAuth 2.0 Client IDs
then select edit your Client ID. after that your production site url add to Authorized JavaScript origins and Authorized redirect URIs.
then enter your Client ID in Drive UI integration page
For myself trying to get the Drive UI configured I noticed a couple of errors (that don't have any specific error messages)
When adding in an Open URL it has to be a valid domain, so for instance I tried to test it out with local host, to no avail. However something like https://devbox.app.com worked, but something like https://localhost:8888 does not. Even though https://localhost is a valid javascript origin in the client_id configuration (at least for the app I am working on, not sure about other apps), localhost doesn't work as an open URL.
When adding in the mimeTypes it needs to be in the format */* and can include custom mimeTypes like application/custom+xml and application/custom-name+json not sure for other custom types that are not in a particular format like xml or json. Also not sure about wildcards.
When adding in file extensions do not add in the '.' just the name of the file extension.
The app icon I found only failed to upload the image when the image wasn't the exact dimensions, I actually ended up editing some icons in photoshop to change the pixel x pixel values as a quick work around during dev.
That worked for me to get it to save and I tested it with a file that had a custom mimeType (application/custom-name+xml specifically) and custom file extension!

Hyperledger-Composer REST Authentication

Request assistance with hyperledger composer. I have created a network and web app around the REST API that was built with the composer-rest-server. I am able to add participants, assets and execute transaction with the default settings. I am now trying to add authentication to the REST server as well as add identities to new participants. However I got stuck. I have reviewed the information at
https://hyperledger.github.io/composer/integrating/enabling-rest-authentication.html
But I'm not sure where I should place the export COMPOSER_PROVIDERS='{.... information to continue the setup.
Any assistance, tips and tricks are much appreciated.
Ok so I figured it out. The problem was that I was running off an older version of composer-rest-server.
I installed the developer tool back in Sep 17 and did the tutorial soon after. I tried the tutorial again and noticed that the deployment command was different and it would not let me deploy my network.
So I updated the composer-rest-server and component cli and it deployed fine. I then followed the steps on the authentication webpage that I referenced above and it worked as intended. I deployed my personal network with the new command and it worked as intended.
Lesson learned this stuff is still being updated and I should be more aware on what changes. Thank you very much #nilakantha singh deo
Open a new terminal from inside the project folder.Format your COMPOSER_PROVIDERS in notepad according to the document you mentioned and copy the whole message and paste it in the terminal.Then you can echo it (see it) by typing the following.
echo $COMPOSER_PROVIDERS
It should ideally return the same json file.
Then make sure that the compopser-rest-server is running with multiuser mode and authentication enabled in the same terminal where you echoed and saw the COMPOSER_PROVIDERS.
In browser now type
localhost:3000/auth/github
It should ask for authentication .Rest of the steps are listed in the document you mentioned.
Cheers!

Google API authentication: Not valid origin for the client

When making an auth request to the Google API (gapi), it's returning false on the checkOrigin.
I have removed any client id's or anything that would link directly to my account and replaced it with a regex indicating what the data is for reference.
Url: https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/iframerpc?action=checkOrigin&origin=https%3A%2F%2Flocal.tools&client_id=(\d{21})
My origin url is a local url, which is https://local.tools
Result: {valid: false}
I'm using the example found here without deviation (except for replacing clientid with my 21 digit clientid): https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/embed-api/third-party-visualizations/
The items I'm trying to display show up nicely on the demo site, but aren't getting past the Not valid origin for the client error on my local.tools site.
Clear your browser cache. Started getting this error in Chrome and then I created a new client id and was still getting the issue. Opened firefox and it worked, so I cleared the cache on Chrome and it started working.
I received the same console error message when working with this example: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/embed/v1/getting-started
The documentation says not to overlook two critical steps ("As you go through the instructions, it's important that you not overlook these two critical steps:
Enable the Analytics API [&] Set the correct origins"), but does not clearly state WHERE to set the correct origins.
Since the client ID I had was not working, I created a new project and a new client ID. The new project may not have been necessary, but I'm retaining (and using) it.
Here's what worked:
Create a new project
Add and Enable the Analytics API
Create a new credential - ensure that it is an OAUTH credential (scroll to the bottom of this page for instructions https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/javascript/start/start-js#Setup).
During creation of the credentials, you will see a section called "Restrictions
Enter JavaScript origins, redirect URIs, or both". This is where you can enter your origins.
Save and copy your client ID (and secret).
My script worked after I created the new OAUTH credential, assigned the origin, and used the newly generated client ID following this process.
try clear caches and then hard reload, i had same error but when i tried to run on incognito browser in chrome it worked.
Key Point: Add both http://localhost and http://localhost:port_number to the Authorized JavaScript origins box for local tests or development.
Credentials do not work if API is not enabled. In my case the next steps were needed:
Go to https://console.developers.google.com/apis/library
Enter 'People'
From the result choose 'Google People API'
Click 'Enable'
Creating new oauth credentials worked for me
You probably use Client ID like this: <CLIENT_ID>.apps.google.com
Make sure your client ID is without ".apps.google.com"
For me - I just went here:
https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials
Then chose the right project; then choose the credential with the same ID shown in your console error message. When editing the credentials you can add multiple origins to the white list.
After updated Authorized JavaScript origins browser still caching old data, so I need to Empty cache and hard reload then it works
1. Change Authorized origins
2. Open Dev Tool (F12) then right-click into reload button
Clearing the cache on chrome works!
Please find the steps below to clear the cache.
Open dev tools (Right-click on the page and select inspect/ press F12)
Right-click on the chrome reload button while the dev tool is opened. (You will find the option to clear the cache and reload the site)
clearing the cache works for me.
for React developers try to restart the project otherwise it will show the same error again and again.
It was a referrer-policy problem.
This has been such a pain for a long time to me too...
Found the issue, my website instance had a referrer policy set to
no-referrer. After setting it to no-referrer-when-downgrade, the One
Tap prompt showed up as expected.
https://stackoverflow.com/a/63039142/15565029
If you are using Django, SECURE_REFERRER_POLICY is 'same-origin' by default. Change it by adding the below code in your settings file.
# settings.py
SECURE_REFERRER_POLICY = 'no-referrer-when-downgrade'
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/ref/settings/#std:setting-SECURE_REFERRER_POLICY
Similar to few answers at above but with screenshots. If you created project for Firebase, may also use the same steps to configure at Google Cloud Platform console.
Select the project at https://console.cloud.google.com/
Navigate to Credentials
Click Edit button for the related OAuth 2.0 Client ID
Add URI into Authorized JavaScript origins
Don't forget to Save
That worked for me after trying for an hour:
On https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials :
Edit Client Outh (mine was: Web Client (Auto Created by Google Service), which was created by my Firebase Web Project)
Enter JavaScript Origin for the Client ID (mine was: localhost:NNNN)
and don't forget to Save.
Try google login for half an hour: didn't work
Enabled Google Analytics as suggested above
Empty Chrome cache and hard reload as suggested above
Try google login for half an hour: didn't work
Sign Out from https://console.cloud.google.com, and sign in again
Empty Chrome cache and hard reload
Now it worked
I don't know which one of the above fixed the problem.
May be it was just a matter of time for cloud.google to
recognize my new JavaScript Origin.
I got the error because of Allow-Control-Allow-Origin: * browser extension.
Trying on a different browser(chrome) worked for me and clearing cache on firefox cleared the issue.
(PS: Not add the hosting URIs to Authorized JavaScript origins in API credentials would give you Error:redirect_uri_mismatch)
I was getting the same error but tried publishing my app and now it shows as below:

Error 404 for rest webservice request in offline app in GeneXus Ev3 U9

I'm developing an offline Android app with Genexus Ev3 U9 and when I try the app in the device I see there is no initial synchronization, even when I try to execute a manual sync the app shuts down. The cat log shows that request made to URLs like http://192.168.12.17/MyAppSmartDevicesEnvironment/gxmetadata/MyApp.android.json
worked fine but when the app tries to get this URL http://192.168.12.17/MyAppSmartDevicesEnvironment/rest/MyAppOfflineDatabase?fmt=json&event=gxchecksync returns 404 I tried the same link in my laptop and it's like the requested resource was not created by GeneXus.
What could be wrong?
There are actually a couple of things you might want to check.
When you accessed http://192.168.12.17/MyAppSmartDevicesEnvironment/gxmetadata/MyApp.android.json you got data but that just means that the virtual directory was successfully created. (which is good of course)
Then you need to check if the WCF module is installed correctly, in order to do that you could try to go to http://192.168.12.17/MyAppSmartDevicesEnvironment/MyAppOfflineDatabase.svc/rest or any other service in your KB. That goes straight to the service implementation. (you can check you web.config file in order to see the actual rewriting rules)
If that works it's certainly a URL Rewrite problem like Sandro and Guscarr suggested.
You can download and install the module from here: http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite
Gcastano,
It seems that you're generating to .net, right?
If so, it could be some problem with iis rewrite module.
Anyway you might check gx software requirements...
It seems that REST services cannot be run on your IIS, as Sandro said, try installing URLRewrite.

"Cannot connect to server" while installing ipa through OTA

I have provisioning profile is installed and successfully created the ipa. The ipa will install in Dropbox without any problem, but the same ipa will give the error while installing through OTA.
I have attached the screenshot of the error.
How can i solve the issue. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
The answer may depend on what OTA server you are using.
If you are running your own OTA server, like I am, then the problem may be your URL.
I saw the exact same "Cannot connect to..." error today with my personal OTA server. The problem was with the itms-services URL.
itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=https://3ea1be94.ngrok.com/TestApp.plist
The .plist file name and the hostname for my &url= parameter were incorrect. Once I fixed them and refreshed the page, everything was fine.
If you are using your own OTA server, check that the &url= paramter is accurate and make sure it is using HTTPS. If you are not running your own OTA server, check with whoever is running it as they may be able to assist.
To proper distribute the IPA file from HTTP you should put a webpage with a Link pointing the itms-services special link for example:
Download App
This manifest file you is very simple, you need the bundleid and the URL to the IPA file
You can find an example of start from this one: https://gist.github.com/kEpEx/777df3cb1fd4bd851409
A couple of important things to consider
Valid certificate is required, and URL from Manifest and IPA should be HTTPS, (I'm not sure if self signed certificated works on this)
Take care of the manifest URL, sometimes you have parameters on the URL, you want to urlencode them or use simplier url
Sometimes you want to auth the users before allowing them to download the manifest or IPA files, take care of this, since cookies on the safari are lost when you click on this link, so if you check for session there based on the cookie you will get the "Cannot connect to" message. You will need to came out with a better aproach like generating temporaty tokens or something like that (this point took me 2 days of work to figure it out why it was failing)
