at my company we want to make use of the relatively new API feature "Automerge" (not through a UI but through an API call),
However we can't seem to find any documentation of a webhook (or other asyc way) of finding out if a merge request failed and why,
anyone know a way to receive such a notification?
Thanks! :)
Hope this saves some work for someone out there,
we asked Github.com support directly and they said there was no async / webhooky way of doing this (as of Nov 2021).
Here's a quote from the support person when asked if there were a way to find out, here's what they wrote:
There wouldn't be a great way to discern that (reason for failure) and
it may be better when you see that, to use the REST API to Get the
Pull Request to get some additional information.
looking at the documentation as suggested in the quote above it seems that through the "closed" action and "merged" key one could discern whether a merge was successful or not, but without any further information about the failure.

I'm trying to integrate LinkedIn API v2 to the app I'm developing for my client and I need help with it. Basically, I need to allow users to fetch some of their LinkedIn profile data and save it to the platform. As I understood, the first version of the API will no longer be supported. https://developer.linkedin.com/docs
So, the problem is that the default field set I was able to retrieve is extremely limited. And it seems like I should apply for the Developer Program here to gain additional API access
https://business.linkedin.com/marketing-solutions/marketing-partners/become-a-partner/marketing-developer-program
I already submitted the application but haven't yet received any response. The frustrating part is that I'm not even sure if this is what I should do to get access.
Here's what I already discovered
Here it's said that the partner's program isn't available
https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/97491
Here it sends me to the partner program
https://developer.linkedin.com/support/faq
Should I choose marketing? https://developer.linkedin.com/partner-programs
I suppose so because other options seem to be irrelevant. So I already applied here
https://business.linkedin.com/marketing-solutions/marketing-partners/become-a-partner/marketing-developer-program
But still no answer
Here are the developers facing the same issues with no answer as well

https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/forum/question/711027
Here seems to be the answer to a similar question but still, no specific link or steps to apply for a partner's program
LinkedIn API V2 - Can't get summary, skills and headline
Here they also tell about some partner's program but again without specifics
Linkedin oauth2 r_liteprofile not being returned from api
Here in the official doc, it's also said that I should apply to the program (which I did)
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/consumer/integrations/self-serve/migration-faq?context=linkedin/consumer/context
I applied on the 23rd of January and I'm still waiting for the approval without even knowing if this program will give me the API access I need
So I need to know one of the following
If my application will be approved it'll give me the extended access to the API v2 (r_fullprofile permission)
If the application I submitted isn't enough what else should I do in order to get the extended access to the API v2 (r_fullprofile permission)
It feels to be a simple process and I don't really understand why it has to involve the Marketing Developer Program when I only need to access some of the fields. I'm sure there is a reason for that. Could anybody from support provide some steps that I or my client should take on order to get the API access?
I already created the app as a developer here and successfully tested it
https://www.linkedin.com/developers/apps
So, just to be clear, the problem is not in something not working technically. It's just that I receive a very limited set of field of a user's profile and I need to expand it
drive.about.get is described by
the revision 20181101 discovery document in which the endpoint for drive:v3.about.get does not include the standard parameters included in the API EXplorer.
V3 is listed as the preferred version.
Given that the fields parameter is required and expects a keyed value from The returned 'about' resource description I expect that this is an erroneous omission from the discovery specification.
Although it is simple enough to work around this, for me it requires additional documentation to explain the requirement.
I note that this is the first Drive endpoint I have explored - I expect that as I continue I will see more missing required parameter specifications. Perhaps this part of the Google Discovery API schema is optional?
My question is - what is the process to help correct this? How frequently are the discovery specs updated and is it up the the user to monitor these changes.
As an additional note for users - you can provide a fields query parameter value of '*' to return all fields. This has also been touched on in Revisions list and get missing information
Any guidance welcome.
Thanks to Mr.Rebot for the link to Google's Issue Tracker which is the most valuable part of my objective to find an appropriate channel to pursue Discovery Specification inconsistencies.
The Google Developer API sites haven't led me there and there are quite a few minor quirks in the API Discovery docs I'd like to pursue.
I'm currently trying to develop a Chrome extension which can receive notifications using GCM. When the extension is first installed, I register it using chrome.gcm.register(['my_sender_id'], function(registration_id) { console.log(registration_id); });.
I would like to send push messages to everyone who has the extension installed. However, the problem is that GCM requires you to specify the registration ID's of everyone you want to send the message to; you can't just send it to everyone who's connected to the sender ID.
While it would be possible to push the registration ID to a database when the extension is installed, and then consult this database each time I want to send a message, this solution seems sub-optimal (also from a security point of view, since the pushing of the registration ID would be done client-side).
However, Google introduced a solution for this a few years ago: topics. It's possible to simply register each device to a 'global' topic (for example) and when you then want to send a message, you only have to specify the 'global' topic as the receiver. However, I can't find how this registration process is done for Chrome extensions. I've looked everywhere, but it seems like Chrome's GCM module doesn't support this yet. Am I correct in this and if so, is there an alternative way to pull this off?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
If you call chrome.instanceID.getToken and then use the InstanceID API from your server to subscribe to a topic, it seems to work, but then the chrome extension doesn't get messages when you push to that topic, so I'm not sure if Google just needs to enable something on their side to make it work. But this is the closest I could get to it in any case.

Thanks for the great feedback. There is no way at the moment to subscribe to a topic from a browser. We're aware that having such an API would simplify the development model. We'd love to add this to Firebase, but as usual can't make any promises or commitments.
I am trying to get started with REST API calls by seeing how to format the API calls using a browser. Most examples I have found online use SDKs or just return all fields for a request.
For example, I am trying to use the Soundcloud API to view track information.
To start, I've made a simple request in the browser as follows http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/13158665.json?client_id=31a9f4a3314c219bd5c79393a8a569ec which returns a bunch of info about the track in JSON format
(e.g. {"kind":"track","id":13158665,"created_at":"2011/04/06 15:37:43 ...})
Is it possible to only to get returned the "created_at" value using the browser? I apologize if this question is basic, but I don't know what keywords to search online. Links to basic guides would be nice, although I would prefer to stay out of using a specific SDK for the time being.
In fact, it's really hard to answer such question since it depends on the Web APIs. I mean if the API supports to return only a subset of fields, you could but if not, you will receive all the content. From what I saw on the documentation, it's not possible. The filters only allow you to get a subset of elements and not control the list of returned fields within elements.
Notice that you have a great application to execute HTTP requests (and also REST) in Chrome: Postman. This allows to execute all HTTP methods and not only GET ones and controls the headers and sent content and also see what is received back.
If you use Firefox, Firebug provides a similar thing.
To finish, you could have a look at this link to find out hints about the way Web APIs work and are designed: https://templth.wordpress.com/2014/12/15/designing-a-web-api/.
Hope it helps you and I answered you question,

Straight from the browser bar you can utilize REST endpoints that respond to a GET message. That is what you are doing when you hit that URI, you are sending an HTTP GET message to that server and it is sending back a JSON.
You are not always guaranteed a JSON, or anything when hitting a known REST endpoint. What each endpoint returns when hit with a GET is specific to how it was built. In that case, it is built to return a JSON, but some may return an HTML page. In my personal experience, most endpoints that utilize JSON returns expect you to process that object in a computer fashion and don't give you a lot of options to get a specific field of the JSON. Here is a good link on how to process JSON utilizing JavaScript.
You can utilize REST clients (such as the Advanced REST Client for Chrome) to craft HTTP POST and PUT if a specific REST endpoint has the functionality built in to receive data and do something with it. For example, a lot of wiki style REST endpoints will allow you to create a page with a specifically crafted HTTP POST with either specific header information, URI parameters or a JSON as part of it.
you can install DHC client app in your chrome and send request like put or get
I think this is how should it work: I record the HTTP activity while browsing my website online. Then, When running my website's HTML offline, no network activity is made. And when a request is made, a response is retrieved from the recorded log.
I need to know how can I make this.
I think this tool is little near from what I want to do. But, unfortunately I don't know how to use it for my case.
The fact that you tagged this post with Fiddler suggests that you know that Fiddler can already do this using the AutoResponder tab. You may wish to update your question to explain why you don't want to do that.
