i wanted to test some API Requests from Proximity Beacon API. So i followed the steps from this site and put a test redirect url (https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground) into the OAuth-2.0-Client-ID. When i try to make an request from the playground i get following output:
{
"error": {
"status": "PERMISSION_DENIED",
"message": "Google Proximity Beacon API has not been used in project google.com:oauth-2-playground before or it is disabled. Enable it by visiting https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/proximitybeacon.googleapis.com/overview?project=google.com:oauth-2-playground then retry. If you enabled this API recently, wait a few minutes for the action to propagate to our systems and retry.",
"code": 403,
"details": [
{
"#type": "type.googleapis.com/google.rpc.Help",
"links": [
{
"url": "https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/proximitybeacon.googleapis.com/overview?project=google.com:oauth-2-playground",
"description": "Google developers console API activation"
}
]
}
]
}
}
obviously it is using the wrong project, but i only got to a step where i was able to pick my account but not my project. i checked everything twice and my only guess is that i cannot use this redirect_url.
So my question: Why is it trying to use the project google.com:oauth-2-playground instead of mine? And how can i change this?
The Proximity Beacon API was not enabled on the default credentials that the OAuth 2.0 Playground uses. I've just enabled that API and now this should work.
Alternatively you can setup the OAuth 2.0 Playground to use your own app's OAuth Credentials (Client ID and Client Secret) in the configuration menu of the playground.

I am trying to test the Google Cloud Logging API on the "Try this API" feature that Google Cloud Platform has on their documentation, but I get this response back:
{
"error": {
"code": 403,
"message": "The caller does not have permission",
"status": "PERMISSION_DENIED"
}
}
I know that my response body is correct because it works with OAuth 2.0 but fails when I use API Key.
Auth 2.0:
Working request using OAuth 2.0
API Key:
Non-Working request using API Key
Google docs says that they generate their own API Key for this "Try this API" feature. https://developers.google.com/explorer-help/
Since Google is using their own API Key, I do not understand why I am getting a response status of PERMISSION_DENIED.
Edit:
Here is a link to the Try this API feature in Google Cloud Platform if you would like to give it a try. https://cloud.google.com/logging/docs/reference/v2/rest/v2/entries/write?apix_params=%7B%22resource%22%3A%7B%22entries%22%3A%5B%7B%22logName%22%3A%22projects%2F%5BPROJECT_ID%5D%2Flogs%2Frequests%22%2C%22resource%22%3A%7B%22type%22%3A%22http_load_balancer%22%2C%22labels%22%3A%7B%7D%7D%7D%5D%7D%7D
Here is the python request that I am using in my code to create an entry:
import requests
entry = {
"entries": [
{
"logName": "projects/[PROJECT_ID]/logs/requests",
"resource": {
"type": "http_load_balancer",
"labels": {}
}
}
]
}
requests.post('https://logging.googleapis.com/v2/entries:write?key=[YOUR_API_KEY]', data=json.dumps(entry))
The API key was created from my user that has "logs writer", "logs viewer", and "logging admin" permissions. This theoretically should be all the permissions I need to make the post request. However, it is still returning a "PERMISSION_DENIED" status.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
It looks like you are making a request to write data which isn't publicly writable. API Keys have no concept of user, they are only identifying you are allowed to call an API. So it looks like your API key request is working to the extent it can, but the response is telling you: I don't know who you are so I can't let you do this.
OAuth 2.0 is the solution here, as it acts on behalf of your account (you have to give consent), allowing the API to verify you have permission to take this action.
Service accounts are another option, to act on behalf of your project instead of your user, but they aren't practical from a web UI.
I have been trying to use the google rest api for google webmaster integration into my system.
After going through it's documentation i am able to configure all it's OAuth keys and client id so when i use the Api Explorer i am getting the required reponse there.
There itself i get some url like this :
https://www.googleapis.com/webmasters/v3/sites/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.abcd.in?key={YOUR_API_KEY}
I am providing client secret key in the YOUR_API_KEY but when i hit the url in browser i get this error :
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "required",
"message": "Login Required",
"locationType": "header",
"location": "Authorization"
}
],
"code": 401,
"message": "Login Required"
}
}
PS: i didnt't get any api key while generating the OAuth key (if you think i shud have used any kind of API key here ).
Can anyone help ?
You need to go to Google developer console and register your own project. Make sure to enable the webmasters api and create oauth2 credentials.
The Key parameter only works for public data. Webmaster tools data is private user data so you will be using an access token and not a public api key
https://www.googleapis.com/webmasters/v3/sites/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.abcd.in?access_token={YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN}
There is a bug in the explorer where it shows key instead of access token it has been reported to Google.
Once you have done that i recommend you find a client library in your chosen language to help you with the authentication part.
"message": "Login Required"
Means that you haven't authenticated your user properly. You should check the documentation for oauth2 or find a client library to help you code it.
I'm trying to use LicenseNotification API from the test page here for a test app I have built, published and already installed in one of our test domains.
App status on the CWS is published (published, GAM: published) and the app works fine.
I am logged in using the app project owner and I enabled OAuth 2.0 Authorization switch. Set the applicationId (which one is right, the one from Developers Console Marketplace SDK configuration or the one from CWS aka element id? I tried both..), clicked on Execute and I get the following response
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "forbidden",
"message": "Not authorized to access the application ID"
}
],
"code": 403,
"message": "Not authorized to access the application ID"
}
}
What am I doing wrong?
EDIT: My app is published but visibility is set to "private" for my test domain only.
I'm trying to initiate a Square Register payment from a web app. The web app will only run on iPads that are within my control.
The HTML I'm using to call it takes this form:
Open Square Register
Where the data parameter is, I believe, a properly URL-encoded form of this:
{
"amount_money": {
"amount": 500,
"currency_code": "USD"
},
"callback_url": "https://mycallbackurl.org",
"client_id": "{{my_app_id}",
"merchant_id": "{{my_merchant_id}}",
"supported_tender_types": [
"CREDIT_CARD",
"CASH"
]
}
The Square Register app is giving me this error:
API ErrorSorry, we could not process the incoming request. Please try again or contact support.
What am I doing wrong? Is this possible to do from a web app, as I'm trying to?
This error can occur if your application is not authorized to use the Square Commerce API. From the documentation:
The Commerce API is currently available only to approved partners. If you're interested in using the Commerce API to integrate your iOS app with Square Register, please contact partners#squareup.com.
In their API docs it says that supported tender types should be nested under options:
{
"options": {
"supported_tender_types": [
"CREDIT_CARD"
]
}
}
I have an application where I use OAuth2 to grab some info from a users spreadsheet in Google Drive. I have just completed the OAuth2 procedure, which I thought was the challenging part since there are no OAuth2 libraries for xquery, but now I am running into another problem.
I send a GET request to the Google Drive SDK, which I have turned ON in the Google API Console, and get the following output:
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "usageLimits",
"reason": "accessNotConfigured",
"message": "Access Not Configured"
}
],
"code": 403,
"message": "Access Not Configured"
}
}
I have found this question which seems to be the cause of my error :Google API returning Access Not Configured but I am unable to complete the solution to my problem which is to " Visit code.google.com/apis/console. First, make sure the service you want is enabled under "Services". Then go to "API Access" and specify your calling domains or IP addresses." When I try to add my domain to the notification endpoints, it doesn't do it.
In addition, I see that it says "Allows webhook notifications to be sent to external domains that are owned by the user. Google verifies that the user does in fact own each of the listed domains via Webmaster Tools" in the box where you add said endpoints. Since I am on an Amazon EC2 instance I am not sure that I will be able to do that. I really hope the fact that I am on an Amazon server is not stopping me from making my app.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you all.
You should enable Drive SDK and Drive API in the API console.
