I am trying to get a connection to the Places AIP of foursquare. (https://developer.foursquare.com/reference/place-search)
This needs me the send the following authorization header:
{ "Authorization" : "<API_KEY>"} and not { "Authorization" : "<SOME_SCHEMA> <API_KEY>"}
SOME_SCHEMA being "Basic", "Key" or any other type.
--header 'Authorization: API_KEY'
I tried to set is like so
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = new
AuthenticationHeaderValue(Constants.API_KEY);
According to MSDN documentation this should work. but all I get is an exception saying that the header type is invalid..
Spend the day trying to found a way. but nothing I tried so far works.
I did text over curl and my api-key is good and so is the request. I really just need to get the HttpClient to accept not having a schema/type for Authorization.
This works.
it will allow to have a authorization header that does not contain an auth type.
var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, url);
request.Headers.Add("Accept", "application/json");
request.Headers.TryAddWithoutValidation("Authorization", Constants.API_KEY);
I'm trying to automate inviting users to an Azure AD using the MS Graph API but get an 'Unable to read JSON request payload' error.
I'm pulling data from a ticketing system, retrieving the current AAD users and diff-ing both. Then I'll be pushing the new ones into the AAD and updating them to include them in an Attendees AD Security group.
I created a Python Azure Function that calls the Graph API with Requests :
def insert_users(users_emails):
logging.info('Inserting new users in AAD')
token = generate_auth_token()
users_emails = users_emails[:2]
added_attendees = []
for email in users_emails:
req_body = {
"invitedUserEmailAddress" : email
, "inviteRedirectUrl" : "https://myapp.com"
}
body_length = sys.getsizeof(req_body)
req_headers = {
'Authorization' : 'Bearer {0}'.format(token)
, 'Content-Type' : 'application/json; charset=utf-8'
, 'Content-Length' : str(body_length)
}
response = requests.post(
'https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/invitations'
, headers = req_headers
, data = req_body
)
response = response.json()
logging.info(response)
added_attendees.append(email)
return added_attendees
The Graph API sends back the following error message :
{'error':
{'code': 'BadRequest',
'message': 'Unable to read JSON request payload. Please ensure Content-Type header is set and payload is of valid JSON format.',
'innerError':
{'request-id': '4ff5332d-d280-4b0d-9e04-a7359ab0e2fb', 'date': '2020-05-27T14:51:18'}
}
}
I tried adding the charset to the Content-Type header but it won't work. I read someplace the Content-Length could be useful so I added it too, to no avail.
Tests run ok in Postman and I'm already performing a POST request against the Azure AD API to get an Access Token so the Requests JSON body is parsed fine then. I also tried using single or double quotes in the JSON payload but it didn't work either.
My take is something is misinterpreted by the Graph API but I can't figure out what.
Thanks forward for your help !
i found a solution. Instead of passing a data argument to the request.post method, I passed a json= argument
response = requests.post(
'https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/invitations'
, json={'invitedUserEmailAddress':email,'inviteRedirectUrl':'https://myapp.com'}
, headers = req_headers
)
My post works in postman but doesn't work inside my app. What am I doing wrong?
let data = obj;
let url = 'https://us123.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists/{somenumber}/members';
let username: string = 'user';
let password: string = 'mytokenhere';
let headers = new Headers();
headers.append("Authorization", "Basic " + btoa(username + ":" + password));
headers.append("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
return this._http.post(url, data, {headers: headers}).subscribe(
data => this.response(data),
error => this.response(error)
);
I'm getting a CORS error in app:
'XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://us123.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/lists/{{somenumber}}/members. Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:4200' is therefore not allowed access. The response had HTTP status code 501.'
Mailchimp doesn't support client side calls to their API. What you would need to do is setup a server that can proxy the requests from the browser to Mailchimp. There isn't much you can do client side to get it to work if the Mailchimp API doesn't provide the CORS response headers.
If your API that you create is on the same domain as the website, then the CORS issue would be eliminated (or you can also fix by setting the appropriate headers)

I am using auth0 with ASP.NET for roles and permission implementation. I want to fetch all users details by using auth0 api. Below is my code,
Code 1:
var apiClient = new ManagementApiClient("Bearer <<Token>>", new Uri("<<URL>>"));
var allClients = await apiClient.Clients.GetAllAsync();
Code 2:
var client = new ManagementApiClient("Authorization: Bearer <<Token>>", new Uri("<<URL>>"));
IPagedList<User> users = await client.Users.GetAllAsync();
Above both code giving me error:
"bad http authentication header format auth0 asp.net"
tried same token and url in postman, And it's returning result,
Where I need to change to make it work?
According to the usage documentation for the ManagementApiClient class, the constructor receives just the token, so you should be calling it like:
new ManagementApiClient("<<Token>>", new Uri("<<URL>>"));
It will then automatically include that token in an HTTP Authorization header using the Bearer scheme.
I am trying to inject a new request header in the proxy request flow using JS policy to be sent to the backend server. When I look at the debug trace, I see that the json data in the request header is distorted.
I am trying to inject some string like
{"scope":"","time_till":2264,"id_1":"hUXLXVqpA1J4vA9sayk2UttWNdM","custom_data":{"c_id":"test_data"}}
But when I look at the trace window I see this
{"scope":"","time_till":2264,id_1":"hUXLXVqpA1J4vA9sayk2UttWNdM,"custom_data":{"c_id":"test_data"}}
what am I doing wrong?
var obj = {"scope":"","time_till":2264,"id_1":"hUXLXVqpA1J4vA9sayk2UttWNdM","custom_data":{"c_id":"test_data"}};
var header_str = JSON.stringify(obj);
context.setVariable('json-header',header_str);
request.headers['x-json-hedar']= header_str;
I tested your code and it seems to work. Here's an example response where I set the header string as a response:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
User-Agent: curl/7.30.0
Accept: */*
x-json-header: {"scope":"","time_till":2264,"id_1":"hUXLXVqpA1J4vA9sayk2UttWNdM","custom_data":{"c_id":"test_data"}}
Content-Length: 0
It appears this is only an issue with the Apigee debug session / trace tool as the header value was set correctly. Here was the JSON download of the debug session showing this header value:
{
"name": "x-json-header",
"value": "{\"scope\":\"\",\"time_till\":2264,id_1\":\"hUXLXVqpA1J4vA9sayk2UttWNdM,\"custom_data\":{\"c_id\":\"test_data\"}}"
}
You can see that the value passed to the UI for displaying the debug info has the malformed json:
id_1\":\"hUXLXVqpA1J4vA9sayk2UttWNdM,
This does not appear to be a problem with the Apigee debug/trace UI. I see the malformed JSON trickle down to my backend service.
Here is the header I'm trying to send -
{"timeStamp":"2349218349381274","latitude":"34.589","longitude":"-37.343","clientIp":"127.0.0.0","deviceId":"MOBILE_TEST_DEVICE_AGAIN","macAddress":"23:45:345:345","deviceType":"phone","deviceOS":"iOS","deviceModel":"iPhone 5S","connection":"5G","carrier":"Vodafone","refererURL":"http://www.google.com","xforwardedFor":"129.0.0.0","sessionId":"kfkls498327ksdjf","application":"mobile-app","appVersion":"7.6.5","serviceVersion":"1.0","userAgent":"Gecko"}
But Apigee reads the header as below. Note the missing start quotes from some fields.
{"timeStamp":"2349218349381274",latitude":"34.589,longitude":"-37.343,clientIp":"127.0.0.0,deviceId":"MOBILE_TEST_DEVICE_AGAIN,macAddress":"23:45:345:345,deviceType":"phone,deviceOS":"iOS,deviceModel":"iPhone 5S,connection":"5G,carrier":"Vodafone,refererURL":"http://www.google.com,xforwardedFor":"129.0.0.0,sessionId":"kfkls498327ksdjf,application":"mobile-app,appVersion":"7.6.5,serviceVersion":"1.0,"userAgent":"Gecko"}
The header is used in a service callout to a backend service which parses it. And rightly so, I get the below error -
com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParseException: Unexpected character ('l' (code 108)): was expecting double-quote to start field name

I encounter strange behaviour when adding JSON to a context variable for example like the following:
var header_str = JSON.stringify(obj);
context.setVariable('json-header',header_str);
I appreciate this is an example so you may not have included the full extent of the problem but this normally works (now it is not added to a variable first):
request.headers['x-json-header'] = JSON.stringify(obj);
Code like this also works if you can send the request from JavaScript
var headers = {"Accept": "application/json", "Accept-Language": "en"};
var sessionRequest = new Request(url, 'POST', headers, body);
var exchange = httpClient.send(sessionRequest);
exchange.waitForComplete()
if (exchange.isSuccess()){
var responseObj = exchange.getResponse().content.asJSON;
if (responseObj.error){
request.content += JSON.stringify(responseObj);
}
}
Also, I have had success with using an AssignMessage policy to build a request, followed by a Callout policy to read the stored request and then make that request and store the result in a response object which can then be read by an Extract Variables policy.
