I'm following Clarifai's guide to make a cURL request and get the tags related to the image.
In the guide it says that I can do either this:
curl "https://api.clarifai.com/v1/tag/?url=https://samples.clarifai.com/metro-north.jpg" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}"
or this:
curl "https://api.clarifai.com/v1/tag/" \
-X POST --data-urlencode "url=https://samples.clarifai.com/metro-north.jpg" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}"
So what I do is that I type in the access token that I get when I create a new application and I change the link of "samples.clarifai.com" for a random link of a random image, but every time I want to do this I get the following message on terminal:
{"status_code": "TOKEN_INVALID", "status_msg": "Token is not valid. Please use valid tokens for a application in your account."}
Any idea why I keep getting this eben though my access token is right?
Thanks!
Just so there can have an official answer for this but Marcus Müller is totally right.
You should be sure to remove the braces with the Bearer access token. But you still want to be sure everything else is fine. This does assume though that you have generated a proper access token either by the Developer Documentation or within your Applications page once you have logged in.

Normally we are able to play around with REST APIs related to application, since the application has method to let us create a JWT Token for authentication.
But we are unable to create an application, don’t understand where and we can get the token to authorize us to let us create an application.
Let me tell step by step how to do that
Open the file {AMS_INSTALL_DIR}/webapps/root/WEB-INF/web.xml and change the following line
<filter-class>io.antmedia.console.rest.AuthenticationFilter</filter-class>
with this one
<filter-class>io.antmedia.console.rest.JWTServerFilter</filter-class>
Open the file {AMS_INSTALL_DIR}/conf/red5.properties and change the following lines
server.jwtServerControlEnabled=false
server.jwtServerSecretKey=
with these ones. You can use any 32 character alphanumeric key.
server.jwtServerControlEnabled=false
server.jwtServerSecretKey=WRITE_YOUR_32_CHARACTER_SECRET_KEY
For our sample we use cizvvh7f6ys0w3x0s1gzg6c2qzpk0gb9 as secret key
Restart the service
sudo service antmedia restart
Generate JWT Token. There are plenty of libraries that you can do programmatically. The easiest way for now is using JWT Debugger. So our generated token is eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.e30.tA6sZwz_MvD9Nocf3Xv_DXhJaeTNgfsHPlg3RHEoZRk
Make the call to Create Application as follows
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization:eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.e30.tA6sZwz_MvD9Nocf3Xv_DXhJaeTNgfsHPlg3RHEoZRk" "https://ovh36.antmedia.io:5443/rest/v2/applications/testapp"
The result should be something like {"success":true,"message":null,"dataId":null,"errorId":0}
The app should be generated in a couple of seconds. You can get the list of the applications with the following command
curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization:eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.e30.tA6sZwz_MvD9Nocf3Xv_DXhJaeTNgfsHPlg3RHEoZRk" "https://ovh36.antmedia.io:5443/rest/v2/applications"

I am writing an application in which I would like to use Firebase for the authentication of any sort of back end calls. Is there a way for me to get a token through a CLI or curl for local testing without having to spin up a front end to get the token?
As a resume (to me and maybe others) from #James-Poag answer, use:
curl 'https://www.googleapis.com/identitytoolkit/v3/relyingparty/verifyPassword?key=[API_KEY]' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-binary '{"email":"[user#example.com]","password":"[PASSWORD]","returnSecureToken":true}'
Where:
email (string): The email the user is signing in with.
password (string): The password for the account.
returnSecureToken (boolean): Whether or not to return an ID and refresh token. Should always be true.
The property idToken from response payload is the parameter you're looking for.
Well i have made a front end one page html to generate dummy firebase ID token for your application, in case anyone needs it
Firebase Token Generator
They changed the link - see REST API.
curl 'https://identitytoolkit.googleapis.com/v1/accounts:signInWithPassword?key=[API_KEY]' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-binary '{"email":"[user#example.com]","password":"[PASSWORD]","returnSecureToken":true}'
In the example above, you would replace [API_KEY] with the Web API Key
of your Firebase project, [user#example.com] with the user's email and
[PASSWORD] with the user's password.
I can curl a website URL by passing on some header params. I am trying to get the same result on the browser but I cannot build the URL for the browser in the right way.
My curl looks something similar
curl -X GET -u 'xyz#gmail.com' -H "app-key: some-keys" -H "account-email: procurement#gmail.com" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d 'paused=false' https://api.pingdom.com/api/2.1/checks
When prompted for the password, i can give the password and Iget the JSON response.
Now I try to build the same URL on my browser. The browser prompts for user name and password which I have already given.
Now my URL looks like this.
https://api.pingdom.com/api/2.1/users?account-email=procurement#gmail.com&app-key=some-key
I get a forbidden (as JSON reponse) when I try from the browser and from Curl I get the proper JSON response.
How can I add header params to a URL when pinging from the browser?
How can I add header params to a URL when pinging from the browser?
That's not possible. Besides it, from the browser address bar you won't be able to use HTTP methods other than GET.
So I advise you to you proper tools to target/test your Web API such as Postman or Paw.
I've tried this every which way, but, I cannot seem to get the syntax right (though I can make it work through a website such as hurl.it). I'm trying a basic HTTP POST request with CURL and I need it to do the following:
1.) Be able to do a very basic non-oauth login (username and password) to http://www.fake.site/create
2.) Send over a few HTTP headers such as "Host, Connection, Content-Length, User-Agent, etc."
3.) Be able to pass over 1 parameter in this format {"guid":"","style":"The Style Here"}
4.) Be able to follow a redirect(s)
I would appreciate any assistance you may have--I have literally been to over 5 pages of Google results and I just hit a snag at ever turn with my CURL code.
Help and Thank you!
curl -X POST -L
-u "auth-User:auth-password"
-d "{\"guid\":\"\",\"style\":\"The Style Here\"}"
-H "Content-Type: application/json"
"http://www.fake.site/create"
You can add more headers through -H parameter if you want.
I am working on integrating OAuth2 to a REST API and I would like to know how am I supposed to send the access_token parameter for the requests.
Example:
My server accepts two routes:
POST /write
GET /read
For /write, am I supposed to put the access_token in the POST?
curl http://api.localhost/write -d 'access_token=[ACCESS_TOKEN]'
For /read, am I supposed to put it in the GET?
curl http://api.localhost/read?access_token=[ACCESS_TOKEN]
Or in both cases, is it supposed to be sent through POST?
Thanks,
Gasim
With OAuth, the token is generally passed in the request headers. You may wish to try something similar to the following, for both POST or GET:
POST: curl http://api.localhost/write -H 'Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN'
GET: curl http://api.localhost/read -H 'Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN'
The value part of the Authorization key/value pair can vary by REST service provider. With Github, for instance, the header key/value pair looks like this:
curl -H "Authorization: token your_token" https://api.github.com/repos/user/repo
You may need to consult the webservice provider docs for details.
