Kaltura Notifications are occationally deactivated? - kaltura

We are using Kaltura to notify our CMS about changes in the videos. In the KMC under Settings->Integrations Settings we have checked all the checkboxes under "Sent by Server".
Some times these checkmarks disappear? IT happens maybe once a week or once a month. How can we find the reason to these boxes being deactivated?

Those notifications are being stored on the partner object in partner table. The actual data is stored in the custom_data field, which holds large amount of PHP-serialized data.
I can suspect cases that due to updates of other fields in the custom_data object, the notifications section will be erased.
Your best shot would be first check the value of that field when the config got erased. If it was actually erased in the database, try to find the following log messages in api_v3.log (which can lead you to the actual API request that modified the field):
[2124167851][propel] */ UPDATE partner SET
`UPDATED_AT`='2017-10-04 14:11:36',
`NOTIFY`='1',
`CUSTOM_DATA`='a:79:{s:9:"firstName";s:5:"Roman";s:12:"isFirstLogin";b:0;
... tons of PHP serialized data ...
i:1;s:19:"notificationsConfig";s:42:"*=0;1=1;2=1;3=1;4=0;21=0;6=0;7=0;26=0;5=0;";
... tons of PHP serialized data ...
}' WHERE partner.ID='101' AND MD5(cast(partner.CUSTOM_DATA as char character set latin1)) = '7eb7781cc04c7f98077efc2e3c1e9426'
The key that stores the notifications config is notificationsConfig (Each number represents the notification type, then 0 / 1 for off / no).
As a side note, which CE version are you using? There might be a more reliable way to integrate with your CMS.

Outlook.MailItem.DownloadState What it is and what it is used for?

I have seen the property Outlook.MailItem.DownloadState which is explained here.
Anyway I am not able to understand what is it and what is it used for. Some can explain me that?
To decrease the capacity of the local storage and save the bandwidth users may not download large emails getting only a small subset of data (metadata) which contains the headers describing the email.
There are possible states for the MailItem.DownloadState property:
The olHeaderOnly means only the header has been downloaded.
The olFullItem value means the full item has been downloaded.
If the message was not fully downloaded in Outlook you can set the MailItem.MarkForDownload property. It returns or sets an OlRemoteStatus constant that determines the status of an item once it is received by a remote user.
if(obj.DownloadState == olHeaderOnly)
{
'Mark the item to be downloaded
obj.MarkForDownload = olMarkedForDownload;
}
Outlook has header-only mode when it downloads headers first and full item (body and attachment) only when the message is selected - see https://www.officetooltips.com/outlook_2016/tips/how_to_set_outlook_to_download_only_e-mail_headers.html

Difference between kubernates event creationTimestamp and firstTimestamp

when i describe the kubernates events its showing both creationTimestamp and firstTimestamp, it seems both are same only, What is the exact difference between those timestamps
From source code:
FirstTimestamp: The time at which the event was first recorded. (Time
of server receipt is in TypeMeta.)
LastTimestamp: The time at which the most recent occurrence of this
event was recorded.
EDIT:
Both of these fields mentioned above seem to be set by client library: sourcecode reference
Note: Not that long time ago event api change proposal appeared.
This means thet both FirstTimestamp and LastTimestamp are deprecated in favour of EventTime.
Event creationTimestamp is a field set by api-server during object creation. It's a read only field. source:
// CreationTimestamp is a timestamp representing the server time when this object was
// created. It is not guaranteed to be set in happens-before order across separate operations.
// Clients may not set this value. It is represented in RFC3339 form and is in UTC.
//
// Populated by the system.
// Read-only.
Also have a look at the api server source code for reference to see how its being set.

Yammer JSON Feed returning only 20 messages

I am trying to get all the messages from a particular group. I am getting the json feed back. The only problem is, its returning only 20 messages. Is this set as default or something. Is there any way by by which while doing the request, I can specify whether I want all the messages, by default just 20 or even messages posted between the start and the end date?
My RestApi call is:
https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages/in_group/[id].json
From Yammer Developer Documentation
<
Autocomplete: 10 requests in 10 seconds.
Messages: 10 requests in 30 seconds.
Notifications: 10 requests in 30 seconds.
All Other Resources: 10 requests in 10 seconds.
These limits are independent e.g. in the same 30 seconds period, you could make 10 message calls and 10 notification calls. The specific rate limits are subject to change but following the guidelines below will ensure that your app is not blocked.>>
I have tried using limit as the parameter to change the number of message more than 20. But it doesnt seem to be working?
Is this problem because of Rate Limit. If not, what's the problem?
Official documentation from Yammers Developer documentation
Messages - Viewing Messages
Endpoints:
1) All public messages in the user’s (whose access token is being used to make the API call henceforth referred to as current user) Yammer network. Corresponds to “All” conversations in the Yammer web interface.
GET https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages.json
2) The user’s feed, based on the selection they have made between “Following” and “Top” conversations.
GET https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages/my_feed.json
3) The algorithmic feed for the user that corresponds to “Top” conversations, which is what the vast majority of users will see in the Yammer web interface.
GET https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages/algo.json
4) The “Following” feed which is conversations involving people, groups and topics that the user is following.
GET https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages/following.json
5) All messages sent by the user. Alias for /api/v1/messages/from_user/logged-in_user_id.format.
GET https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages/sent.json
6) Private messages received by the user.
GET https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages/private.json
7) All messages received by the user.
GET https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages/received.json
Parameters:
The messages API endpoints return a similar structure and support the following query parameters:
older_than - Returns messages older than the message ID specified as a numeric string. This is useful for paginating messages. For example, if you’re currently viewing 20 messages and the oldest is number 2912, you could append “?older_than=2912″ to your request to get the 20 messages prior to those you’re seeing.
newer_than - Returns messages newer than the message ID specified as a numeric string. This should be used when polling for new messages. If you’re looking at messages, and the most recent message returned is 3516, you can make a request with the parameter “?newer_than=3516″ to ensure that you do not get duplicate copies of messages already on your page.
threaded=[true | extended] - threaded=true will only return the first message in each thread. This parameter is intended for apps which display message threads collapsed. threaded=extended will return the thread starter messages in order of most recently active as well as the two most recent messages, as they are viewed in the default view on the Yammer web interface.
limit - Return only the specified number of messages. Works for threaded=true and threaded=extended.
Noted the limit parameter that you can set on your GET request - so based on this documentation if it is correct (I'm not a Yammer Developer but I do use it) you should be able to do
https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages.json?limit=50
That is in theory but reading through the documentation there is a section on Search that has
page - Only 20 results of each type will be returned for each page, but a total count is returned with each query. page=1 (the default) will return items 1-20, page=2 will return items 21-30, etc.
Which says to me they are limited to 20 results returned.
UPDATE
After testing this with https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages.json?limit=50 and it not returning 50 messages but doing https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages.json?limit=5 will return only 5 messages I would say that Yammer restrict the number of messages to 20 Also after reading through the documents a bit more I read
For example, if you’re currently viewing 20 messages and the oldest is number 2912, you could append “?older_than=2912″ to your request to get the 20 messages prior to those you’re seeing"
This says to me that they will only return a max of 20. So I think you are stuck with 20 messages at a time.
Hope this helps.
You need to use Parameters:
The messages API endpoints return a similar structure and support the following query parameters:
older_than - Returns messages older than the message ID specified as a numeric string. This is useful for paginating messages. For example, if you’re currently viewing 20 messages and the oldest is number 2912, you could append “?older_than=2912″ to your request to get the 20 messages prior to those you’re seeing.

This parameter is intended for apps which display message threads collapsed. threaded=extended will return the thread starter messages in order of most recently active as well as the two most recent messages, as they are viewed in the default view on the Yammer web interface.
limit - Return only the specified number of messages. Works for threaded=true and threaded=extended.
Example : GET https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages.json?older_than=2912
while older can be ID of message number 20 and so on you can get 20 by 20
I solved by requesting subsequent pages in a recursive manner.
You can simply increase the page parameter until the response is empty, or update the older_than parameter until the property meta.older_available is false.

Quickbooks POS AddOn Sales Reciept TxnID

I am creating my first AddOn using Quickbooks POS AddOn Dev Kit v10.
I have created a button in the receipts side buttons panel.
Now what I want is the current sales receipt.
For that, what I am trying to do is to get TxnID and query request processor, with that TxnID to get the whole receipt.
I have managed to get information like Qty, Desc1, ItemNum etc. I have also get the Receipt Schema.
https://idnforums.intuit.com/messageview.aspx?catid=49&threadid=16722
From above url, it says DocSID is the TxnID, but I cant get the field value through DocSID.
How can I get the TxnID or is there a better way to do it for getting the current sales reciept?
Thanks in Advance.
After working on it for 2-3 days, I came to know that TxnID will be created after the sales receipt is saved in QB POS through the IPOSService ProcessQBPOSXMLRequest method.
ProcessQBPOSXMLRequest only takes and repond in XML format. I created the receipt request in XML and send it ProcessQBPOSXMLRequest for processing.
I was avoding creatingg the XML request, since it was a long and tedious work, but I did similar work while creating another application with QBPOS SDK v3, with QBPOSFC3 library. I copied the code and add reference to QBPOSFC3.dll, and created xml from IMsgSetRequest interface which send request to POS request processor and convert the request in XML format.

Scraping Real Time Visitors from Google Analytics

I have a lot of sites and want to build a dashboard showing the number of real time visitors on each of them on a single page. (would anyone else want this?) Right now the only way to view this information is to open a new tab for each site.
Google doesn't have a real-time API, so I'm wondering if it is possible to scrape this data. Eduardo Cereto found out that Google transfers the real-time data over the realtime/bind network request. Anyone more savvy have an idea of how I should start? Here's what I'm thinking:
Figure out how to authenticate programmatically
Inspect all of the realtime/bind requests to see how they change. Does each request have a unique key? Where does that come from? Below is my breakdown of the request:
https://www.google.com/analytics/realtime/bind?VER=8
&key= [What is this? Where does it come from? 21 character lowercase alphanumeric, stays the same each request]
&ds= [What is this? Where does it come from? 21 character lowercase alphanumeric, stays the same each request]
&pageId=rt-standard%2Frt-overview
&q=t%3A0%7C%3A1%3A0%3A%2Ct%3A11%7C%3A1%3A5%3A%2Cot%3A0%3A0%3A4%2Cot%3A0%3A0%3A3%2Ct%3A7%7C%3A1%3A10%3A6%3D%3DREFERRAL%3B%2Ct%3A10%7C%3A1%3A10%3A%2Ct%3A18%7C%3A1%3A10%3A%2Ct%3A4%7C5%7C2%7C%3A1%3A10%3A2!%3Dzz%3B%2C&f
The q variable URI decodes to this (what the?):
t:0|:1:0:,t:11|:1:5:,ot:0:0:4,ot:0:0:3,t:7|:1:10:6==REFERRAL;,t:10|:1:10:,t:18|:1:10:,t:4|5|2|:1:10:2!=zz;,&f
&RID=rpc
&SID= [What is this? Where does it come from? 16 character uppercase alphanumeric, stays the same each request]
&CI=0
&AID= [What is this? Where does it come from? integer, starts at 1, increments weirdly to 150 and then 298]
&TYPE=xmlhttp
&zx= [What is this? Where does it come from? 12 character lowercase alphanumeric, changes each request]
&t=1
Inspect all of the realtime/bind responses to see how they change. How does the data come in? It looks like some altered JSON. How many times do I need to connect to get the data? Where is the active visitors on site number in there? Here is a dump of sample data:

Let me know if you can help with any of the items above!
To get the same, Google has launched new Real Time API. With this API you can easily retrieve real time online visitors as well as several Google Analytics with following dimensions and metrics. https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/realtime/dimsmets/
This is quite similar to Google Analytics API. To start development on this,
https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/realtime/v3/devguide
With Google Chrome I can see the data on the Network Panel.
The request endpoint is https://www.google.com/analytics/realtime/bind
Seems like the connection stays open for 2.5 minutes, and during this time it just keeps getting more and more data.
After about 2.5 minutes the connection is closed and a new one is open.
On the Network panel you can only see the data for the connections that are terminated. So leave it open for 5 minutes or so and you can start to see the data.
I hope that can give you a place to start.
Having google in the loop seems pretty redundant. Suggest you use a common element delivered on demand from the dashboard server and include this item by absolute URL on all pages to be monitored for a given site. The script outputting the item can read the IP of the browser asking and these can all be logged into a database and filtered for uniqueness giving a real time head count.
<?php
$user_ip = $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"];
/// Some MySQL to insert $user_ip to the database table for website XXX goes here
$file = 'tracking_image.gif';
$type = 'image/gif';
header('Content-Type:'.$type);
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($file));
readfile($file);
?>
Ammendum:
A database can also add a timestamp to every row of data it stores. This can be used to further filter results and provide the number of visitors in the last hour or minute.
Client side Javascript with AJAX for fine tuning or overkill
The onblur and onfocus javascript commands can be used to tell if the the page is visible, pass the data back to the dashboard server via Ajax. http://www.thefutureoftheweb.com/demo/2007-05-16-detect-browser-window-focus/
When a visitor closes a page this can also be detected by the javascript onunload function in the body tag and Ajax can be used to send data back to the server one last time before the browser finally closes the page.
As you may also wish to collect some information about the visitor like Google analytics does this page https://panopticlick.eff.org/ has a lot of javascript that can be examined and adapted.
I needed/wanted realtime data for personal use so I reverse-engineered their system a little bit.
Instead of binding to /bind I get data from /getData (no pun intended).
At /getData the minimum request is apparently: https://www.google.com/analytics/realtime/realtime/getData?pageId&key={{propertyID}}&q=t:0|:1
Here's a short explanation of the possible query parameters and syntax, please remember that these are all guesses and I don't know all of them:
Query Syntax: pageId&key=propertyID&q=dataType:dimensions|:page|:limit:filters
Values:
pageID: Required but seems to only be used for internal analytics.
propertyID: a{{accountID}}w{{webPropertyID}}p{{profileID}}, as specified at the Documentation link below. You can also find this in the URL of all analytics pages in the UI.
dataType:
t: Current data
ot: Overtime/Past
c: Unknown, returns only a "count" value
dimensions (| separated or alone), most values are only applicable for t:
1: Country
2: City
3: Location code?
4: Latitude
5: Longitude
6: Traffic source type (Social, Referral, etc.)
7: Source
8: ?? Returns (not set)
9: Another location code? longer.
10: Page URL
11: Visitor Type (new/returning)
12: ?? Returns (not set)
13: ?? Returns (not set)
14: Medium
15: ?? Returns "1"
page:
At first this seems to work for pagination but after further analysis it looks like it's also used to specify which of the 6 pages (Overview, Locations, Traffic Sources, Content, Events and Conversions) to return data for.
For some reason 0 returns an impossibly high metrictotal
limit: Result limit per page, maximum of 50
filters:
Syntax is as specified at the Documentation 2 link below except the OR is specified using | instead of a comma.6==CUSTOM;1==United%20States
You can also combine multiple queries in one request by comma separating them (i.e. q=t:1|2|:1|:10,t:6|:1|:10).
Following the above "documentation", if you wanted to build a query that requests the page URL and city of the top 10 active visitors with a traffic source type of CUSTOM located in the US you would use this URL: https://www.google.com/analytics/realtime/realtime/getData?key={{propertyID}}&pageId&q=t:10|2|:1|:10:6==CUSTOM;1==United%20States

Documentation 2
I hope that my answer is readable and (although it's a little late) sufficiently answers your question and helps others in the future.
