Forge webhook no callback - forge

I can create a webhook for version added, but I get no callback.
If I send my own POST requests to the callbackUrl I can see them in the log.
The folder urn QU_6r8mIR8yIubm1K_fHmA is the Project Files folder of the Project.
If I use a callback to a https://webhook.site/ I do receive the callback - it is just acc.metroselskabet.dk that sees nothing.
It would be nice to know where the callback is supposed to come from. I have a suspicion that some of Amazon's servers may be blacklisted by Cisco.
Any ideas would be welcome.
autoReactivateHook FALSE

It looks like this is a problem with my Apache SSL. The requests reach the server but the connection dies on SSL Library Error: error:14094416. So nothing to do with Forge, but maybe something with the Amazon web servers.

BizTalk 2016: How to use HTTP Send adapter with API token

I need to make calls to a rest API service via BizTalk Send adapter. The API simply uses a token in the header for authentication/authorization. I have tested this in a C# console app using httpclient and it works fine:
string apiUrl = "https://api.site.com/endpoint/<method>?";
string dateFormat = "dateFormat = 2017-05-01T00:00:00";
using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("token", "<token>");
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Accept", "application/json");
string finalurl = apiUrl + dateFormat;
HttpResponseMessage resp = await client.GetAsync(finalurl);
if (resp.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
string result = await resp.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
var rootresult = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<jobList>(result);
return rootresult;
}
else
{
return null;
}
}
however I want to use BizTalk to make the call and handle the response.
I have tried using the wcf-http adapter, selecting 'Transport' for security (it is an https site so security is required(?)) with no credential type specified and placed the header with the token in the 'messages' tab of the adapter configuration. This fails though with the exception: System.IO.IOException: Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream.
I have tried googling for this specific scenario and cannot find a solution. I did find this article with suggestions for OAUth handling but I'm surprised that even with BizTalk 2016 I still have to create a custom assembly for something so simple.
Does anyone know how this might be done in the wcf-http send adapter?
Yes, you have to write a custom Endpoint Behaviour and add it to the send port. In fact with the WCF-WebHttp adapter even Basic Auth doesn't work so I'm currently writing an Endpoint Behaviour to address this.
One of the issues with OAuth, is that there isn't one standard that everyone follows, so far I've had to write 2 different OAuth behaviours as they have implemented things differently. One using a secret and time stamp hashed to has to get a token, and the other using Basic Auth to get a token. Also one of them you could get multiple tokens using the same creds, whereas the other would expire the old token straight away.
Another thing I've had to write a custom behaviour for is which version of TLS the end points expects as by default BizTalk 2013 R2 tries TLS 1.0, and then will fail if the web site does not allow it.
You can feedback to Microsoft that you wish to have this feature by voting on Add support for OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect authentication
Maybe someone will open source their solution. See Announcement: BizTalk Server embrace open source!
Figured it out. I should have used the 'Certificate' for client credential type.
I just had to:
Add token in the Outbound HTTP Headers box in the Messages tab and select 'Transport' security and 'Certificate' for Transport client credential type.
Downloaded the certificate from the API's website via the browser (manually) and installed it on the local servers certificate store.
I then selected that certificate and thumbprint in the corresponding fields in the adapter via the 'browse' buttons (had to scroll through the available certificates and select the API/website certificate I was trying to connect to).
I discovered this on accident when I had Fiddler running and set the adapter proxy setting to the local Fiddler address (http://localhost:8888). I realized that since Fiddler negotiates the TLS connection/certificate (I enabled tls1.2 in fiddler) to the remote server, messages were able to get through but not directly between the adapter and the remote API server (when Fiddler WASN'T running).

Unable to find SignalR trace logs on disk

I tried following links to generate server side SignalR trace on my production environment:
http://www.asp.net/signalr/overview/testing-and-debugging/enabling-signalr-tracing#server_text
https://github.com/SignalR/SignalR/wiki/Tracing-on-the-server-side
But, trace is not getting saved on disk as mentioned in the links(e.g., "default_traces.txt" or "transports.log.txt" respectively).
Please suggest where trace log file get saved?
I also checked following folders mentioned in first tutorial:
C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC1
C:\inetpub\logs\FailedReqLogFiles\W3SVC1
But nothing related with SignalR found there. Any idea?
In my environment (VS2015 + IIS Express) log files are stored in web application folder (folder with web.config).
Be sure that your application pool has write permission on logs folder.
Also check SignalR error on client side. It can direct you to the cause of the problem.
For example, if client receives response 401 (Not authorized) (for example, on $.connection.hub.start()) it could mean that authentication middleware can not authenticate the client and responds with 401 without passing the request further through OWIN pipeline to SignalR. In this case SignalR does not emit any logs (it doesn't know about any request).

How do you fix Google OAuth API - (403) There is a per-IP or per-Referer restriction configured on your API key

I have recently moved a project over to another server. The domain name is the same, it has just been pointed to the new server. The URL is exactly the same. Since moving the project over however I get this error when the app tries to connect to googles OAuth api.
{
"name": "Error calling GET https:\/\/www.googleapis.com\/analytics\/v3\/management\/accounts\/~all\/webproperties\/~all\/profiles?key=AIzaSyBKUP8JriiOnFnbJm_QYt_bHTMuHf-ilAI: (403) There is a per-IP or per-Referer restriction configured on your API key and the request does not match these restrictions. Please use the Google Developers Console to update your API key configuration if request from this IP or referer should be allowed.",
"url": "\/analytics\/statistics.json"
}
The obvious reason (based on the error message) would be that I haven't added the new server IP into the list of allowed IP's in the devlopers console under APIs & auth->Credentials->Key for server applications.
I have added the IP. I've checked the domain has propagated by pinging it and the new IP comes up which has been entered in the console so i'm struggling to work out why it doesn't work.
Has anybody come across this before that may be able to help me solve it?
Go to Project -> APIs & Auth -> Credentials -> API Key -> Create New Key -> Browser Key. It may take upto 5 minutes to reflect changes.
And it worked for me.
After you added your new server IP you need to generate a new API key from the Console. This message shows up when access in not properly configured. Look here and scroll down to "accessNotConfigured".
So, go to your developer console, Project -> APIs & Auth -> Credentials -> Public API Access -> Create New Key -> Server Key. Use this new key and you should be good to go.
I've had this problem for a while as well but finally solved it:
I noticed when trying wget http://bot.whatismyipaddress.com/ from my server it would actually return an IPv6-address, when on the API key's config page I had entered the IPv4-Address of my server. Once I added the IPv6-Address, my requests where finally accepted.
Go to Project -> APIs & Auth -> Credentials -> Public API Access -> Create New Key -> Server Key >> Accept requests from these server IP addresses (Optional) section,
then remove all the IP Address and Update it first, then try it. And, later you can add the specific IP address which did weirdly work for me.

Apparently my API Proxy does not exist

I've created a new API Proxy and deployed revision 1 into production, but when I call my API I just get:
HTTP 500 Internal Server Error
{
"fault": {
"faultstring": "Internal server error APIProxy revision 1 of MyProxy does not exist in environment prod of organization MyOrg",
"detail": {
"errorcode": "messaging.adaptors.http.ServerError"
}
}
}
Not the most helpful error message in history. Any pointers where to start debugging this would be very helpful, thanks!
You appear to be using the wrong url for your API, so it could not be found. If you haven't added any API key checking or additional authorization, you should be able to copy the url directly from the API details page in the prod Deployments line. Start a trace session and paste that url into the URL box. Test what happens when you do that trace.
If you have any additional security or other features that would alter the API, you would need to make those changes to the URL before sending it. If you're still having a problem, send an email to help#apigee.com.

Connecting an ASP.NET application to QuickBooks Online Edition

I am trying to create an ASP.NET page that connects to QuickBooks Online Edition, read a couple of values, and display the results. So far I have downloaded the QuickBooks SDK but I have been unable to find a simple step-by-step example on how to create an asp.net page to connect to QuickBooks Online. The QuickBooks SDK documentation and the SDK itself is very confusing and overwhelming. Anyone know of a simple step by step tutorial on where to get started... or maybe a hint on the very first thing to do.
Yishai's answer is partially correct, but not entirely.
You can have your ASP .NET application log in and issue requests without having to send the user over to the QuickBooks Online log in page if you make sure to set the security preferences correctly when you connect up your application to QuickBooks Online Edition.
During the application registration process/connection process, it will ask you if you want to turn on or off login security with a prompt as below. You must tell it you want to turn off login security if you want to be able to access QuickBooks Online Edition data without forcing the user to log in every time. The prompt is something like:
"Do you want to turn on login security?"
You must select:
"No. Anyone who can log into [Application Name] can use the connection".
Outside of that, Yishai is correct about the process. To re-iterate, in a nutshell:
Register for a QBOE account
Register your integrated application with Intuit's AppReg service
Visit a specific link to tie your AppReg application to your QBOE account (make sure you turn off login security when it asks you!)
Make HTTPS POST requests to Intuit's servers to sign on using the connection ticket Intuit will provide you with
Make HTTPS POST requests to send qbXML requests to Intuit's servers, which you can use to add, modify, delete, and query records within QuickBooks Online Edition.
There is some additional documentation and some example requests on my QuickBooks development and integration wiki, specifically the QuickBooks Online Edition integration page.
I have built a solution that does what you're asking in PHP which adds, modifies, and queries data within QuickBooks Online Edition without requiring the user to log in everytime, and it works like a champ. It pushes and pulls order data between a PHP shopping cart (VirtueMart) and QuickBooks Online Edition. The PHP code is available here:
QuickBooks PHP Framework
As a side note, unless you're very familiar with generating SSL certificates and sending them via HTTPS POSTs, you'll save yourself a whole lot of trouble by using the DESKTOP model of communication, and not the HOSTED model. Just make sure to keep your connection ticket securely encrypted.
Also, Yishai's suggestion to: "One is to programatically hit up their login page and submit the credentials as if you were a user. I'm sure its not "supported" but it would likely work." goes specifically against the security/developer guidelines Intuit and the SDK set forth. If they catch you doing that, they'll ban your application from connecting to QuickBooks.
Here are all the steps I took to get this working. Special thanks to Keith Palmer for his comments, answers, and his website which really helped me get this working.
Register your application at http://appreg.quickbooks.com. This will give you your App ID and Application Name. I used these settings:
Target Application: QBOE
Environment: Production
Application Type: Desktop
(using Desktop made things much easier as far as not needing certificates)
A verification key is sent to your email address which you need to enter on page 2 of this wizard.
Set up your QBOE Connection. Once you finish registering your application in Step 1, you will then have an Application ID. Use this ID in the url below to set up your QBOE Connection:
https://login.quickbooks.com/j/qbn/sdkapp/confirm?serviceid=2004&appid=APP_ID
NOTE: Make sure to replace APP_ID in the above url with the Application ID that was created when you registered your application.
The wizard will take you through the following steps:
Specifying a name for your connection.
Granting Access Rights - I gave All Accounting rights since this was easiest.
Specify Login Security - I turned Login Security Off. This is important since it makes submitting the xml to the QBOE much easier since you do not need to get a session ticket for each user.
You will then be given a Connection Key.
At this point you now have the 3 important pieces of information in order to gain access to your QuickBooks Online Edition (QBOE) account.
Application Name
Application ID
Connection Key
Post the XML to QBOE with the 3 pieces of access information and the actual request into your QBOE database. Here is sample c# code that will post to the QBOE gateway. This will return all customers in your QuickBooks database. Make sure to update the xml below with your Application Name, Application ID, and Connection Key.
string requestUrl = null;
requestUrl = "https://apps.quickbooks.com/j/AppGateway";
HttpWebRequest WebRequestObject = null;
StreamReader sr = null;
HttpWebResponse WebResponseObject = null;
StreamWriter swr = null;
try
{
WebRequestObject = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(requestUrl);
WebRequestObject.Method = "POST";
WebRequestObject.ContentType = "application/x-qbxml";
WebRequestObject.AllowAutoRedirect = false;
string post = #"<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8"" ?>
<?qbxml version=""6.0""?>
<QBXML>
<SignonMsgsRq>
<SignonDesktopRq>
<ClientDateTime>%%CLIENT_DATE_TIME%%</ClientDateTime>
<ApplicationLogin>APPLICATION_LOGIN</ApplicationLogin>
<ConnectionTicket>CONNECTION_TICKET</ConnectionTicket>
<Language>English</Language>
<AppID>APP_ID</AppID>
<AppVer>1</AppVer>
</SignonDesktopRq>
</SignonMsgsRq>
<QBXMLMsgsRq onError=""continueOnError"">
<CustomerQueryRq requestID=""2"" />
</QBXMLMsgsRq>
</QBXML>";
post = post.Replace("%%CLIENT_DATE_TIME%%", DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss"));
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.LoadXml(post);
post = xmlDoc.InnerXml;
WebRequestObject.ContentLength = post.Length;
swr = new StreamWriter(WebRequestObject.GetRequestStream());
swr.Write(post);
swr.Close();
WebResponseObject = (HttpWebResponse)WebRequestObject.GetResponse();
sr = new StreamReader(WebResponseObject.GetResponseStream());
string Results = sr.ReadToEnd();
}
finally
{
try
{
sr.Close();
}
catch
{
}
try
{
WebResponseObject.Close();
WebRequestObject.Abort();
}
catch
{
}
}
Couple things to note:
As pointed out by Keith Palmer the qbxml version needs to be 6.0 (even though the IDN Unified On-Screen Reference shows 7.0)
I needed to include the onError="continueOnError" attribute.
Setting the WebRequestObject.ContentLength property is required.
Content Type needs to be "application/x-qbxml"
And finally I received many "The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request." exceptions which were not helpful at all but in the end I was able to trace them to something wrong with the xml. So if you get this exception look to your xml as the source of the problem.
The outline of what you have to do are outlined in Chapter 7 of the QBSDK documentation (at least in the 7.0 version of the SDK that I have). You have to open a test account and get permission to connect to their servers.
Once you have your account setup, the basic authentication procedure consists of redirecting your user to the QuickBooks Online site to log in, and once the user has done that, QuickBooks calls back your application with an HTTPS post with a ticket, which is basically a session handle that you can use for your requests, so that the system knows you are authenticated. When you get that response, you parse it and send your own login request to the system based on what you got back.
Then (if I understood the documentation correctly) you are basically doing Https POSTS of xml files with the QuickBooks requests, and you get XML responses that you have to parse to get the data you want.
I hope that gets you started.
The rest of the SDK is documentation (which you will need to know how to form your requests and parse your responses) and everything else is concerned with how to communicate with the desktop product. The only thing you are going to need from the rest of the documentation is how to do error handling, which is really only important if you are posting data to QuickBooks. If you are just reading, it doesn't matter (either your request works out or it doesn't, you don't need to worry about if you need to retry or if that would result in duplicate data).
EDIT: Given your specific use case I see two options. (You aren't crazy, just not the typical QuickBooks Online scenario).
One is to programatically hit up their login page and submit the credentials as if you were a user. I'm sure its not "supported" but it would likely work.
The other is to cache the results (which you should probably do anyway) and have an admin screen where someone does log into QuickBooks online and update the results every morning or evening or whatever makes sense.
In most small businesses, they are going to opt for the first option, but the second one is going to work more consistently, robustly and actually be supported by Intuit if you have an issue.
This looks pretty close to what you need: www.QuickbooksConnector.com
Wasn't able to download it yet.
