I need to hit gmail end points to send emails and get the email details. I got one url which can be used to send and get the emails i.e. google api explorer. https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/v1/reference/users/messages/get
But it's not written here about the end points. So somebody please explain what things are required to send and retrieve the email by using gmail api end points through postman?
The end point for sending messages can be found on the documentation page.
User.messages.send there is also information about the post body.
Upload URI, for media upload requests:
POST https://www.googleapis.com/upload/gmail/v1/users/userId/messages/send
Metadata URI, for metadata-only requests:
POST https://www.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/userId/messages/send
authentcation
You are going to have to set up authnecation as well. the easest way to do this will be to use the Oauth 2.0 play ground to get a bearer token and apply that to your calls within postman

I am developing a simple website using MEAN stack that gives a logged-in user a task to complete and sends a score to the backend corresponding to their performance on that task. User can skip to next task in which case no score is sent. Problem is: How can I differentiate between a user cheating and sending score via a POST request on POSTMAN (by changing POST values to increase score) and a POST request created by my frontend code. How to work around this problem?
Welcome to Stackoverflow, to check if the request is made by POSTMAN (so locally) or by your backend (called by your front end) you just have to check if the request IP is your server or not.
This is a WhiteList solution
MEAN Stack use NodeJS, so you can use :
request.connection.remoteAddress
EDIT :
You can put a special parameter in your header when send a request with your front OR your Postman, and you check it when you receive it
I'm trying to send a TrustPilot invitation using the Create Invitations API but no matter what I try, I get a response code of 415 and with no data returned, so it's virtually impossible for me to debug.
The URL I'm using is correct: https://invitations-api.trustpilot.com/v1/private/business-units/{businessUnitId}/email-invitations (where {businessUnitId} is my business ID)
I am sending a valid (and current) oAuth token in my header.
I am sending a POST request.
I have tested my details with other "Business user OAuth Token" APIs and everything works, so my details are definitely correct. It's just this create invitation API that's not working.
I've tried everything. I've submitted minimal details, a full request, somewhere in between, the example request in the API, and so on. Always a response code of 415.
I've set my "Invitation Settings" in the TrustPilot Business portal, and have even tried submitting those details with the request (ie. sender e-mail "noreply.invitations#trustpilotmail.com" and a valid reply-to e-mail that's been configured).
I've tried contacting the "Integration Engineers" at TrustPilot who after a few back and forth e-mails, also have no idea, which is VERY unsettling. So time for Stack Overflow.
I need to get this figured out, so any help would be great! Perhaps someone can provide a sample request that works in their application that I can try to duplicate in mine?
Http status code 415 (Unsupported Media Type) is returned when Content-Type: application/json is not passed. You need to make sure that this header is added and that the content you are passing in the post body is valid json.
If you are already doing this then I would need an example of a request you are sending to help you further.
I'm following the instructions given on this page:
https://stocktwits.com/developers/docs/authentication
I've managed to get the client id, client secret and the code without any problems (up to step 4). However, when trying to exchange these for an access token, I'm getting a blank page.
The instructions specify that the return is a json format response - maybe there are some browser settings that I need to check to allow this?
thanks in advance for any pointers.
Judging by the title of this post "returning a blank page" it sounds like you are trying to make this request through the browser. The page you referenced says that the request must be a POST request and browsers cannot make POST requests.
On the step you're stuck on (step 5) there is a link that says "View the token call" that links here https://stocktwits.com/developers/docs/api#oauth-token-docs which shows how to make this POST request using curl.
I'm trying to get the list of albums as it is written here: https://developers.google.com/picasa-web/docs/1.0/developers_guide_protocol#ListPhotos
GET https://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/api/user/default
Authorization: Bearer MY_ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE
So, the problem is that I get "404 Unknown user" responce. Strange thing but when I make the same request with the same access token from another PC, I get the correct responce (200 OK and list of albums).
I didn't google anything useful except the similar issue which was on API for Python (like here: AuthSub: (404, 'Not Found', 'Unknown user.')). Did anyone face the same issue?
So, the problem was that Google Photos server handles the requests incorrectly, if these requests contain some wrong Cookie headers.
I say "incorrectly" because other Google APIs (like Drive, Contacts, etc.) didn't have this issue.
So, all that I had to do is to add flag INTERNET_FLAG_NO_COOKIES in InternetOpenUrl function:
InternetOpenUrl(NetHandle, PChar(Url), PChar(Header), Length(Header), INTERNET_FLAG_RELOAD or INTERNET_FLAG_NO_COOKIES, 0);
After that sending HTTP requests using InternetOpenUrl with the flag won't return this error anymore.
I am trying to get a shopify webhook to fill my customer class in parse.com, however something must go wrong. I don't know how to verify the parse response since Shopify sends this webhook out from it's ruby backend. I used requestbin to catch the webhook and I replicated a post request using postman to my parse url and everything works fine. Does anyone know how to debug requests like these? Is there a console in Parse where I can see all the incoming requests and the responses Parse.com sent back?
Try using Runscope for debugging webhooks. Full guide here: https://www.runscope.com/provider-guide/troubleshooting-webhooks - this is more than just a request bin. It's a full transparent proxy that will, like a bin, record the webhook notification, but will also pass it along to the intended destination (your webhook receiver) and record that response as well.
