Updating signature of all users in my Google domain account - google-api

Hi am trying to build an app to standardized signatures of all users in my google domain.
For that I have tried with following Google APIs in apis explorer
https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/?hl=en_US#p/gmail/v1/gmail.users.settings.sendAs.patch
and pass other user's Id and email with custom signature but it's giving me following error
REQUEST
<pre>
PATCH https://www.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/[21_DIGIT_USER_ID]/settings/sendAs/[SOME_OTHER_USER#DOMAIN.COM]?fields=signature&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
{
"signature": "my custom signature"
}
</pre>
RESPONSE
<pre>
403 Forbidden
- Show headers -
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "forbidden",
"message": "Delegation denied for myemailid#mydomain.com"
}
],
"code": 403,
"message": "Delegation denied for myemailid#mydomain.com"
}
}
</pre>
Although I have delegated admin access and I am able to change my user's signature by passing me in userId field and email id in sendAsEmail.
What's the use of userId field if an delegated admin can't change other user's signature.

What does a 404 mean in the context of a Google Calendar API?

I am trying to programatically access a calendar I own using the Google Calendar API list:
r = requests.get(
url="https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/<the ID of my calendar which looks like mydomain_randomstuff#group.calendar.google.com>/events",
params={
'key': <the key from the API console>,
'singleEvents': True,
'orderBy': 'startTime'
}
This call fails with a 404:
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "notFound",
"message": "Not Found"
}
],
"code": 404,
"message": "Not Found"
}
}
What does that error actually mean, in the context of this API?
Note:
the calendar does exist and it has events
the API limits are not even close to be reached
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "notFound",
"message": "Not Found"
}
],
"code": 404,
"message": "Not Found"
}
}
Can mean one of two things. Either the calendar Id you have typed is in correct or the user who you are authenticated with does not have access to that calendar. Make sure you are logging in with the correct user with access to that calendar. Optionally you can do a calendar.list which will return a list of the calendars that the user currently has access to. That way you wont have to worry about possibly miss typing the calendar id.
authorization
The method you are using events.list requires authorization (permission from the user) in order to access their calendar. Which can be seen in the documentation page
You need to authncate your user using Oauth2 and one of the scopes above. You will then have an access token you can use to access this calendar.
apikey
Api keys are used for accessing public data. Unless your calendar is set to public you will not be able to use it to see events. Also remember that api keys do not have access to update public calendars you still need to be authenticated to make changes to them.
Service account
If this is a server to server application you should use a service account not an API key. All you need to do is add the service account as a user on the google calendar like you would any other user. It will then have access to your calendar.

Getting 401 response in google developer api only when query GET subscriptions

I'm using Google Play Android Developer API. I access it from server with service account. I have private key and got access token with it.
I use scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/androidpublisher. And when I ask subscription info, I got 401 error:
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "androidpublisher",
"reason": "permissionDenied",
"message": "The current user has insufficient permissions to perform the requested operation."
}
],
"code": 401,
"message": "The current user has insufficient permissions to perform the requested operation."
}
But when I use other queries with the same token and with the same scope, I got successfull responses. For example, I can successful get voided purchases list or info about inapp product:
200 OK
{
"packageName": "com.myapp.exapmle",
"sku": "subscr_month",
"status": "active",
"purchaseType": "subscription",
"defaultPrice": {
"priceMicros": "149000000",
"currency": "RUB"
}
What could be the cause of the problem? I added this service account to developer console and provided all permissions (administrator access).

Google Fusion Table: Unauthorized with api key

I'm trying to create and query a fusion table. So what I did:
I created a new fusion table in google drive
Created a new api key
Set the fusion table to public (using share button)
Now I'm using Advanced REST client executing this request:
GET https://www.googleapis.com/fusiontables/v2/tables?key=[myapikey]
But I keep getting 401: Unauthorized
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "required",
"message": "Login Required",
"locationType": "header",
"location": "Authorization"
}
],
"code": 401,
"message": "Login Required"
}
}
The docs say that this should work, but I keep getting this message. Any hint?
p.s.: The reason why I use an api key only is simply because I created a batch which sends the request, the data is public and there is no user authentication required.

Adsense API getting 'Error: Login Required'

I'm using the API Explorer tool to create some request urls for google adsense. Here is the request url that the explorer tool generated that gives a response of today's earnings: https://www.googleapis.com/adsense/v1.4/reports?startDate=today&endDate=today&accountId=MY_ACCOUNT_ID&metric=EARNINGS&key=MY_API_KEY
However, when I try to use this url in the browser or in my code it gives this response:
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "required",
"message": "Login Required",
"locationType": "header",
"location": "Authorization"
}
],
"code": 401,
"message": "Login Required"
}
}
I am not sure what I am missing it use this url. I have activated adsense apis on my google developer console.
The key parameter is the public API key for accessing public data.
The access_token parameter is used for accessing private user data.
In your case you are trying to access your private account and should be using an access token.
To obtain an access token you need to authentication your application using either Oauth2 or a service account. Once you have obtained an access token and send that with your request as so:
https://www.googleapis.com/adsense/v1.4/reports?startDate=today&endDate=today&accountId=MY_ACCOUNT_ID&metric=EARNINGS&access_token=YourAccessToken
You need to replace MY_API_KEY with your API key, and MY_ACCOUNT_ID in same fashion.

Is there any way to get the information about admin who installed my app?

I am developing an application for the Google Apps Marketplace.
I use the Licensing API to retrieve the notifications. I need to get the information about admin, who installed the app, but the API doesn't provide me with this.
The solution I found is to use the Directory API to search users, but I get an error
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "forbidden",
"message": "Not Authorized to access this resource/api"
}
],
"code": 403,
"message": "Not Authorized to access this resource/api"
}
}
What is wrong with my request?
Are there any other solutions to get the information about admin?
The auth scopes:
- "email"
- "profile"
- "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive"
- "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.file"
- "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.user.readonly"
- "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.group.readonly"
