Use Magento rest API with multi store view - magento

I have a Magento website with 3 languages on 3 different store view. I need to retrieve product information through the rest API, accessing to this address:
http://-mysite-/api/rest/products
It works really fine, but I receive data only from the default store view. In my webapp I need to switch languages, and I need to access to the others store view. I read the documentation (http://www.magentocommerce.com/api/rest/introduction.html), but I cannot find anything about store view and multilingual sites... I tried passing language in the header or passing the store_id as "get variable"... nothing, it works only with the default store view. Any idea?

You can try this. magentomysite/api/rest/products/store/storeid . For example you can use as magentomysite/api/rest/products/store/1 for english store products.
Remember one thing. In the admin panel you have to give permissions to guest user also. Then only you can get the data through this url.
I hope this helps u.

To elaborate on Pavan's answer the following URL worked for me:
magentodomain.com/api/rest/products/:product_id/store/:store_id
You can find your store id with the following method explained in this answer:

Magento: StoreView URL redirect for multiple languages?

In my store I have got 2 languages, English (default) and German. I also have a category, lets call it other.
The url key for other is other and sonstiges for the German view. Now, when I send somebody a link to the German view (www.example.com/sonstiges.html), it generates a 404 not found until I select German as language. Afterwards it works when the link is clicked.
I removed the store view code from my url by the way, it has to stay that way.
Why is that and how can I change it?
Thanks!
Its happening for url rewrite problem.
Example : For product if you provide different url key for different store view like different url key for English and different url key for German then if you share the url from english site and if someone open in German view then he will get 404 not found.
Solution : Go to that particular product in the admin then switch store view and set same url key for both store view. Either dont provide url key for any store view so Magento will generate by own.
Thanks .

Managing contents in multilingual stores in Magento

This might be a basic question, I'm still relatively new to Magento. I have 2 store views in a magento project. 1 for English (default) and 1 for Japanese. While working with both store views, I noticed how if for example I switch to the Japanese store view, if I redirected to a different page or content on the store, the language goes back to English. How do I prevent the website from going back to the default language every time I change categories/catalogs?
That is all about Magento Admin setting. While creating Content Pages/Categories/products, there is a option that ask to choose Store View.
You can add content for Cateogries/Product/CMS Pages for each locale. If it is done then you'll be able to see your site content on the basis of current locale. Hence you need to go through Magento Admin first.
Hope it will work for you. Please let me know if any issue.
Managing contents in multilingual stores in Magento is easy.
Edit/Create Product/Category/Page/Static blocks according to need storeview and put content according to languages in that.
Now access pages by store code, if we are using that.
In some case we don't find the heading names according to languages so just enable inline translater from admin and do translation specific to store/website.
To run Magento store using urls we have both options index.php modifiction and using .htaccess using website and store codes.
On running Magento multisite , multistore. We generally face the common urls for media, js and other resources we should use symlink to increase SEO ranking and score.
Please feel free to contact.
Install your language package.
Create products, categories, pages, and static blocks on the basis of your selected language.
Sometimes translation does not work for few words. In those cases, Inline translation from admin will help you.
Managing content according to store view is very easy.
follow up below steps for managing content according to Store view.
Edit your product or category or your page and static block etc.
after that you can see store select left side in product and category and on page you can see feild below url in static block also. select your store view.
whater ever you want to change or edit please do according to you.
After that save it will apear only on your selected store.
Note: if you not edit any fild by store then it will show default store contents.

How to make single admin to access single store products only

In magento I am having 3 websites and it contains 6 to 7 store views. I want as a single admin has to access single store products only. He should not modify the products in another stores. How can I do this?
I have read in magneto documentation as to create new admin in system/permissions/roles and modify there. But trying with this, the new admin is restricted to only creating of products or for dashboard or for shippings or for tax module only. But I need like the new admin has to be accessed to only one store only..
So how can I do this??
I know this is a little late reply but anyone who is interested, answer from mprototype is perfectly valid as long as you/your client uses a Magento Enterprise edition. Checked in versions 1.12 and above.
When you goto :
System -> Permissions -> Roles
While defining the role you can choose custom scope and checkbox the stores you want then to have access to.
I don't know if I am late but any of these will do what you are looking for. In fact, it will provide even more flexibility.

How to find which admin user posted the product?

Currently Im working on a magento project and it have a plugin developed by another team. This project have merchant logins also. But the issue I am facing now is. When I add a product from merchant panel, it is not getting displayed in his product list. It is shown in admin product list. I want to track down what userid is entering corresponding to that record inserting from merchant login.
In which table I have look? After searching a lot I believe they are not storing any userid corresponding to each product. But I am not sure about that. How can I confirm that?
Please help me
Thanks in advance
There is no such functionality in magento admin, as far as I know. But you can write your own module to controller_action_predispatch or to core_abstract_model_save_after(or something like this) events. And you will be able to see who did what.
UPDATE 1
If I am right, meaning this is not implemented, then you should your own custom logging module.
Module should use Observer functionality. If you want particullarly catch the product save, then you should catch the events of product saving.
here.
To compare product data you can see an example here.
Well to get current user you can read this example.
Moreover in case it is not enough, you may watch here, something might be interestring for you.
