I have changed an attribute of a user using Foundry's providerId APIs. When I query by using the APIs, I get the new attributes but the Foundry UI is still displaying the old attribute. Is this a kind of caching? Or is there an action I should take to trigger this change to take action?
You need the user to login to foundry after you make the provider change. The actual user login flow from the new provider updates the user.

I am trying to find a way to update a custom field automatically within multiple Partner Infusionsoft apps when I manually update the field with new options within our main Infusionsoft app.
The idea is to avoid manually logging into every Partner Infusionsoft app that we manage, individually, to update the custom field options so that they match our main app custom field options when it is updated. The custom field is constantly being updated with new options that need to be mirrored within all of our partner apps.
The process would not need to be entirely automatic. We could manage using a trigger to update the rest of the apps whenever we have manually updated the custom field in our main app.
Can anyone please steer me in the right direction or tell me if this isn't even possible?
Yes this is possible with the API. Unfortunately there isn't a REST webhook for when a custom field is modified, so it would require a constant poll against what you would consider the master application. Constantly check the custom field and see if it's values changed. This is the rest documentation for that:
https://developer.infusionsoft.com/docs/rest/#!/Contact/retrieveContactModelUsingGET
That will include all the possible options for the field.
Unfortunately you can't modify a custom field in the newer REST API so you will have to use xmlrpc. The rest API only let's you create according to the documentation.
Here are the docs for the endpoint you would use with xmlrpc to update all the other apps to match the master application.
https://developer.infusionsoft.com/docs/xml-rpc/#data
https://developer.infusionsoft.com/docs/table-schema/
DataFormField is the custom field information. You would use the data endpoint to modify the values.
Be careful when you are polling the master application to not go over usage limits and apply best practices.
I am creating a new Okta integration for our app and need to require users to enter a subdomain, where can I do this? We will be using SAML.
As you can see in this example for the slack integration ( http://ronz.io/gPgAeS), they are able to add a custom field to allow for the domain or subdomain to be entered.
Where in the setup can I add this? So that Okta users can enter their subdomain for our app when adding the application.
Please let me know if you need any additional context.
I'm guessing this is a custom application rather than an app in the OIN ? In which case you need to build a SAML templated app, which will allow you to add as many attributes required by the SP.
If you go to Applications -> Add Applications -> There should be a Create button on the page allowing you to define your app.
Using the app script properties service I can allow users to store some settings information. I understand that these are stored for a given user for a given script. As the admin is there anyway for me to review all the users properties?
Also does anyone know if you are allowing the script to run as you (the publisher) does the user properties store as the user accessing the script. I know that the session data is for the actual user and not the publishing user(even when running as the publishing user).
Thanks
I'd like to suggest storing the user properties in Firebase. This will give you full access to them as needed, and they load really fast for the user. My two go to docs for this are this one to get the library and this one to as for details. If this is not possible, an alternative could be to append a row to a google sheet each time the user updates their users properties. I use both of these approaches for also tracking detailed app usages.
I am working on an Identity management application, using which my goal is to manage users on Box application.
I was going through Box documentation, and there are two ways for authentication
OAuth 2.0, which has redirection URI as required parameter. And due to which I cannot make use of it, since I will not be able to enter username and password and Authorize dynamically using my Java code.
Reference: https://box-content.readme.io/reference#oauth-2
JWT authentication, this I can use in my code and successfully get Access token. But problem here is, this access token can only be used to manage App Users (who will not have login to Box website).
Reference: https://box-content.readme.io/docs/box-developer-edition
So, is there any other authentication mechanism which I can use for getting Access token for managing Box users?
Regards,
Sandeep
The current best option is #1 with a process like this:
Create a Box application with the 'Manage an Enterprise' scope enabled.
Use a web-based access token generator (such as this or this) to get an initial access/refresh token pair. Save these somewhere safe (flat file, DB).
Code your application to initialize itself with the access/refresh token pair from its saved location.
When the access/refresh token pair is refreshed, write them out to the save location.
If your application runs across multiple nodes/processes this approach will require some (painful) coordination between them. I believe Box is working on some improvements in this area, so you may not have to live with this for long.
I want to use Zapier to register a new Wordpress user — the trigger will be a new purchase on Gumroad.
This plugin — https://wordpress.org/plugins/json-api-user/ — allows you to register users using a public JSON interface, eg by hitting
https://example.com/api/user/register/?username={{email}}&email={{email}}&nonce=blahblahblah
I'm new to all this, but know that I can get Zapier to insert the purchaser's email from Gumroad into {{email}}.
My question is, how can I do this in a secure way?
(At the moment anyone can hit example.com.com/api/get_nonce/?controller=user&method=register and get the key they need)
And maybe it can even be done without using Zapier?
I'm assuming that the nonce is only good for a short period of time, like a couple minutes? If so, what you want to do is lock down the /api/get_nonce/ endpoint to require a password. That way only authenticated users can get a nonce, which can then be used to create the user.
As for how Zapier fits in, it's a bit complicated to custom build a two-request process like this. You would have to make your own app on the Developer Platform do the nonce call and then the user creation.
I use the following plugin to create users (via Zapier) on my WordPress sites after someone signed up on my Teachable school: WP Webhooks Pro
This plugin allows me to either POST the data to my WordPress site via JSON, XML or a simple form data. In my case, I don't need a nonce, since the plugin generates API keys that I can use to push my data to.
