I would like to know if it's currently possible to transfer an app created on one parse account to another users parse account.
We have had an external developer build part of our apps backend on parse but he has not used our businesses parse account.
Please could you let me know if it possible to change it / port it over?
Many Thanks,
Sam
Yes, you can. It is found on the Settings-->Collaborators page for the app you want to transfer.

I have the following problem and cannot figure out where the problem is.
I created a StorageV2 (general purpose v2) storage account a few days ago, created two blob containers and two queues in it. Then uploaded some data into the blobs and the queues and stoppt working with it.
Now (the last three days), when I try to access the blob storage or the queues I receive the following error messages:
The value for one of the HTTP headers is not in the correct format
This request is not authorized to perform this operation using this permission.
Details see below screenshot:
The problem is, I access the account via azure portal, not via code, so the same way I created the storage account. So even with the exact same user.
Update: I tested with Edge and Firefox, both same errors. Funny thing is that I can access the queues and the blobs with the Azure Storage Explorer App.
Does anyone have any advice for me?
If you just want do do that on portal, please follow these steps:
If you dont use portal, you can use SAS token.
After a few days the problem disappeared by itself. I therefore assume that the cause lay with Microsoft. Thanks to all for the tips.
I'm a hobby developer that use Parse.com as my database and website host, as Facebook is going to shutdown Parse.com, I'm now looking for alternative Parse server.
I use Parse's Cloud Code Hosting to build Dynamic Web App, and Parse itself to store data collected from the website I've build, with custom Cloud Code to help getting and managing data. I've build a Windows Phone app for myself to manage the data I've collected too.
Is there any alternative server that has my requirement?
Dynamic Website
Database host
Custom Cloud Code (with BeforeSave and AfterSave trigger)
with Windows Phone SDK (or REST API if doesn't have)
Very thank you for helping me!
Try out Hasura.
Hasura (http://www.hasura.io): Hasura is a neat PaaS + BaaS solution. It is now competing with Firebase, Kinvey, Heroku et al. There is a full comparison page here: Compare | Hasura (https://compare.beta.hasura.io) . The difference majorly lies in infra ownership as well as no tech lock-in due to open-source components(like docker, kubernetes,postgres) building the major chunk of the platform. Check it out. There is also an option to explore (https://explore.beta.hasura.io/) Hasura by building your own blog web app and a todo app in under 15 mins.
Hasura should fit in perfectly for your needs.

I'm using Simbla website application development. It doesn't support all of your requirments but it has great UI builder with a backend parse database.
You can try using the parse open source server it has cloud code and you can use a custom database with it.
I'm using Parse.com SDK services for my Android app.
I've seen that Parse had released their Android SDK as an open source project on Github on this address.
My app is almost finished, and when I'm uploading it to the Play Store, I don't want to be controlled by Parse.com (I mean that I don't want to be blocked someday, or I don't know that), so I want to move my whole database to my own server that hosted on a secure company.
I've checked the open source project on Github and realized that all I need to use it on my own server is to generate an Application ID and a client key.
So I want to ask if someone knows how to generate an Application ID and a client key of Parse to use it on my own server, or that you maybe knows another way of moving it to my server? And one more question: Today I'm using also Facebook SDK with my app. If I will move my database to my own server, will I still be able to use Facebook SDK on my app?
Thanks!
I have write an article about how to migrate parse to a custom server.

There's a massive difference between Parse open-sourcing their SDKs compared to revealing their entire backend architecture and its configuration.
The open-sourced SDKs are essentially wrappers for Parse's REST API along with some convenience functions and logic for natively interpreting the JSON data Parse is transmitting.
At a high level, Parse uses MongoDB for its core database and is entirely hosted using AWS (Amazon Web Services). The entire architecture is highly complex and is not something you could just drag and drop onto your own software stack or hardware backend.
To help give you a better idea of how Parse achieves all of their services, here's an interesting presentation their Dev Ops team gave at an AWS convention. Suffice it to say, hosting the backend services for over 180,000 apps requires a complex infrastructure and that is the "secret sauce" so to speak for Parse and is why Facebook purchased them for over $85 million two years ago.
I am writing a service as part of which a user chooses an image from a url (not my domain) and later he and others can view that image.
I need to save this image to a third party server (S3).
After a lot of wasted time I found I can not do it from the client side due to security issues (I can't get the third party image data and send it from the client side without alerting the client, which is just bad)
I also do not want to do the uploading on my server because I run Rails on Heroku and the workers expansive.
So I though of two options:
use something like transloadit.com,
or write a service on EC2 that will run over my db, find where the rows where the images are not uploaded and upload them.
I decided to go for the EC2 and S3 because the solution i am writing is meant for enterprise and it seems that it will sound better as part of the architecture when presented to customers.
My question is: what is the setup i need so I can access the Heroku db from an external service?
Any better ideas on how to solve this?
So you want to effectively write a worker, but instead of doing it on Heroku you want to do it on EC2? That feels like more work.
As for the database, did you see the documentation? It shows how to get the URL.
PS. Did you not find it in the docs?
Im looking for an out of the box solution to be able to add an upload form so that my users can upload large files from my website onto my own FTP server.
Has anyone found a good service to accomplish this? Again I want to be able to use my own server in my office and i also need a form attached to the uploaded file.
I run a graphics printing company and need to be able to receive large files that my designers send to me.
I want my user experience to be painless and not complicated as possible so i would prefer if they did not have to download any FTP clients like filezilla or transmit.
I just want them to fill out the form
upload their files
click send
then i receive it on my server
If there is any off the shelves solution for this that would be amazing.
Thank you!
I guess this is an "out of the box" web app. It allows you to brand the app to look like your own web site by modifying a couple of files. All the functionality is built in. It is called Simple2FTP and can be found at www.Simple2ftp.com
Maintaining a ftp server is not trivial. There are various dropbox-type services on the
web that are very easy to use.
