I feel reaaally silly for asking this but how do I know what my Gitlab domain is when all my projects are on Gitlab.com? Lets say, I want to do an API call to get all my projects - which is done like this according to the docs:
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: XXXX" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects"
I tried replacing example with my username and also tried specifying the target as https://gitlab.com/username/api/v4/projects but this doesn't work.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Its actually just:
https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects
Your private token will be used to figure out who you are and what projects you can access.
I am using Softlayer Object Storage REST API.
I was told that below command line using CURL has been successful.
$ curl -i -XPUT -H "X-Auth-Token: AUTH_tkabcd" --data-binary "Created for testing REST client" https://dal05.objectstorage.softlayer.net/v1/AUTH_abcd/container2/file10.txt
I wish to upload files using Javascript so I have no clue how do I wrap the file in my request.
Anyone please provide an example? A lot of thanks.

Recently, I have been experimenting with using Elisp to communicate with a local CouchDB database via HTTP requests. Sending and receiving JSON works nicely, but I hit a bit of a road-block when I tried to upload an attachment to a document. In the CouchDB tutorial they use this curl command to upload the attachment:
curl -vX PUT http://127.0.0.1:5984/albums/6e1295ed6c29495e54cc05947f18c8af/artwork.jpg?rev=2-2739352689 \
--data-binary #artwork.jpg -H "Content-Type:image/jpg"
Does anyone know how I would go about using the built-in url package to achieve this? I know that it is possible to do upload using multipart MIME requests. There is a section in the emacs-request manual about it. But I also read that CouchDB does not support multipart/form-data as part of their public API, even though Futon uses it under-the-hood.
I think you need to use url-retrieve and bind url-request-method to "PUT" around the call.
You will also need to bind url-request-data to your data:
(let ((url-request-data (with-temp-buffer
(insert-file-contents "artwork.jpg")
(buffer-substring-no-properties (point-min) (point-max)))))
(url-retrieve "http://127.0.0.1:5984/albums/6e1295ed6c29495e54cc05947f18c8af/artwork.jpg?rev=2-2739352689"))

I have created AccessTokenClientCredential and RefreshAccessToken in OAuth proxy through Apigee tool.
When I tried to access "https://damuorgn-prod.apigee.net/oauth/client_credential/accesstoken?grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=07VoDotbGhyl3aG8GxjkyXivoTNH9oiQ&client_secret=fb8ZOrAUUSGp3FAv" URL after mentioning client Id and client secret ID, page is empty. It does not displays any error or displays with Token value.

I tried both Test and Prod environment but there was no luck.
I have requested for Curl software installation. Is there any other way to test this URL without Curl software. Your immediate reply is appreciated. Thanks!
Curl https://damuorgn-test.apigee.net/oauth/client_credential/accesstoken?grant_type=client_credentials -X POST -d 'client_id=qnYUqb6j3uGraRAh7JF9d651nUXNwMCC&client_secret=mjHIFMcTDCa3YQ6f'
Could you please check on this link from Curl software ?
It looks like there may be a couple of issues:
When I try your URL, I get a "CLASSIFICATION_FAILURE" error - which means the proxy can't be found. I noticed that you're using "damuorgn-prod.apigee.net" when you might have deployed your proxy to the test environment, and meant to use: "damuorgn-test.apigee.net".
In step 5.2 of the document you referenced, it says to use POST instead of GET. So you might try this:
curl https://damuorgn-test.apigee.net/oauth/client_credential/accesstoken?grant_type=client_credentials -X POST -d 'client_id=07VoDotbGhyl3aG8GxjkyXivoTNH9oiQ&client_secret=fb8ZOrAUUSGp3FAv'
(When I try this, I get an "invalid client id" error, but maybe that client_id is no longer valid?)
Hope that helps,

I'm trying to automate the login to a website and submission of a form.
Is there a browser plugin (for firefox or Chrome) that allows you to record HTTP GET and POST requests in a form that allows them to be played back at a later point? I'm looking for something that will be possible to automate from a script e.g. via curl or wget.
I've tried using the Chrome developer tools to capture POST form data but I get errors when trying to replicate the request with wget which suggests I'm missing some cookies or other parameters. Ideally there would a nice automated way of doing this rather than doing lots of trial and error.
For a simple interaction, you don't really need a tool like Selenium that will record and playback requests.
You only need the tools you've already mentioned:
Chrome already comes with the Developer Tools that you need: use the Network tab. No plugin to download. I don't know if Safari will work -- I don't see a "Network" tab in its Developer Tools.
Both curl and wget support cookies and POST data, but I've only tried curl for automation.
There are several key steps that need to be done properly (this takes some experience):
The sequence of pages that are requested needs to model real user interaction. This is important because you have no idea exactly how the backend handles forms or authentication. This is where the Network tab of Chrome's Developer Tools comes in. (Note that there is "record" button that will prevent the clearing of the log.) When you prepare to log a real user interaction for your analysis, don't forget to clear your cookies at the beginning of each session.
You need to use all the proper options of curl and wget that will ensure that cookies and redirects are properly processed.
All POST form fields will likely need to be sent (you'll often see fields with nonce values to prevent CSRF
Here's a sample of 3 curl calls that I wrote for an automation script that I wrote to download broadband usage from my ISP:
curl \
--silent \
--location \
--user-agent "$USER_AGENT" \
--cookie-jar "$COOKIES_PATH.txt" \
'https://idp.optusnet.com.au/idp/optus/Authn/Service?spEntityID=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.optuszoo.com.au%2Fshibboleth&j_principal_type=ISP' >$USAGE_PATH-1.html 2>&1 && sleep 3 &&
# --location because the previous request returns with a series of redirects "302 Moved Temporarily" or "302 Found"
curl \
--silent \
--location \
--user-agent "$USER_AGENT" \
--cookie "$COOKIES_PATH.txt" \
--cookie-jar "$COOKIES_PATH.txt" \
--referer 'https://idp.optusnet.com.au/idp/optus/Authn/Service?spEntityID=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.optuszoo.com.au%2Fshibboleth&j_principal_type=ISP' \
--data "spEntityID=https://www.optuszoo.com.au/shibboleth&j_principal_type=ISP&j_username=$OPTUS_USERNAME&j_password=$OPTUS_PASSWORD&j_security_check=true" \
'https://idp.optusnet.com.au/idp/optus/Authn/Service' >$USAGE_PATH-2.html 2>&1 && sleep 1 &&
curl \
--silent \
--location \
--user-agent "$USER_AGENT" \
--cookie "$COOKIES_PATH.txt" \
--cookie-jar "$COOKIES_PATH.txt" \
--referer 'https://www.optuszoo.com.au/' \
'https://www.optuszoo.com.au//r/ffmu' >$USAGE_PATH-3.html 2>/dev/null
Note the careful use of --cookie-jar, --cookie, and --location. The sleeps, --user-agent, and --referer may not be necessary (the backend may not check) but they're simple enough that I include them to minimize the chance of errors.
In this example, I was lucky that there were no dynamic POST fields, e.g. anti-CSRF nonce fields, that I would have had to extract and pass on to a subsequent request. That's because this automation is for authentication. For automating other types of web interactions, after the user's already logged in, you're likely to run into more of these dynamically-generated fields.
Not exactly a browser plugin, but Fiddler can capture all the HTTP data passing back and forth; with FiddlerScript or FiddlerCore, it is then simple to export that into a text file - and pass that into cURL as request headers and request body.
In Firefox, turn on the Persist option in Firebug to be sure to capture the POST. Then install and use the "Bookmark POST" add-on to bookmark the POST request for later use.
Firefox Firebug already has a feature which allows you to copy a web request as a curl request, so you see all the various elements of the request on the command line.
Turn on the Firebug and right click on a request in the Net panel and pick Copy as cURL. Then use it in the curl

Have you tried Selenium?
There are way too many methods for you to choose.
Use Firefox and selenium IDE. It can record your browser action
User selenium Web Driver. It can simulate different browser action by the script you write in Ruby or Java.
Use a macro plugin for Firefox to simulate absolute clicks and keypresses.
Use a OS level macro application and do the same as 3.
Write a script (such as PHP) to simulate the actual form post or cookie interations.
No.1 is common and easy to use.
No.4 can be powerful but you need time to polish the automation.
No.3 is in the middle of No.4 and No.1.
No.2 can be a tool for environment test and stress test also.
No.5 is seeming the most flexible and resource saving.
Request Maker chrome plugin does that.

The Safari developer tools and Firebug are sufficient for your needs.
