I'm working in AppMaker to create a new employee/user provisioning workflow. I'm at the point where I am creating a new G Suite user, and I have a very weird problem with spaces in my JSON. It's leading to an error: GoogleJsonResponseException: API call to directory.users.insert failed with error:
Invalid Input at provisionUser (AdminDirectory:5)
I've been troubleshooting this for a while, and it seems that somewhere between AppMaker and the AdminDirectory call, some extra spaces and hard returns are inserted into my user data. Below I'm going to show:
The client-side code for gathering user information
The server-side user creation script
The console output of the user JSON
The output of the user JSON that comes to my email for troubleshooting
The emailed output as seen in Notepad++
Client-Side Code
...a bunch of data gathering from a form, then...
var user = {
primaryEmail: email,
name: {
givenName: firstName,
familyName: lastName
},
addresses: [{
type: 'work',
formatted: address
}],
organizations: [{
title: title,
department: department,
fullTimeEquivalent: ftpt
}],
phones: [{
type: 'work',
value: phone
}],
locations: [{
buildingId: building,
type: 'desk',
area: 'desk'
}],
password: 'xxxxxxxx',
changePasswordAtNextLogin: true,
orgUnitPath: orgUnit,
relations: [{

value: supervisor
}],
customSchemas: {
sclsnj: {
startDate: effective,
mls: mls,
location: location
}
}
};
google.script.run.provisionUser(user, grouparray);
Server-Side Code
function provisionUser(user, grouparray) {
user = JSON.stringify(user);
MailApp.sendEmail('lhoffman#xxxxxxxx.org', 'New Google User', user);
console.log(user);
user = AdminDirectory.Users.insert(user);
for (var g = 0; g < grouparray.length; g++) {
var groupEmail = grouparray[g] + '#xxxxxxxx.org';
var member = {
email: user,
role: 'MEMBER'
};
Logger.log(groupEmail);
AdminDirectory.Members.insert(member, groupEmail);
}
}
Console Output

Email Output in Notepad++ (with control characters)
NOTE: I realize the JSON is actually represented in the image twice, but you can definitely see the extra space and left feed characters there.
I've confirmed that I can provision a user with the console output by using the Google API Explorer and copying and pasting it into the request body for the Directory API Users.insert.
I've also confirmed that the emailed version of the output does not work using the same method. When I paste that version into the request body in the API Explorer, I get an error alert and it's clear from the color-coding in the body field that it is not correct. Even when I don't email the output to myself, I get the same error behavior, so I'm pretty sure that the act of emailing isn't messing things up.
Help!!
The invalid input is a result of a specific field not correclty formatted. In your case, I see that you are using custom schemas. There is a specific filed in the custom schema that is not properly formatted, that is startDate. Instead of providing the value of 2019-05-20T04:00:00.000Z, just use 2019-05-20.
The reason for that is because the field is expecting a complete date only value instead of a complete date plus hours and minutes. As you can see on the ISO-8601 date format, the complete date format is YYYY-MM-DD.

What happens if you do it this way?
function provisionUser(user, grouparray) {
var user = JSON.stringify(user);
MailApp.sendEmail('lhoffman#xxxxxxxx.org', 'New Google User', user);
console.log(user);
AdminDirectory.Users.insert(user);
for (var g = 0; g < grouparray.length; g++) {
var groupEmail = grouparray[g] + '#xxxxxxxx.org';
var member = {
email: user,
role: 'MEMBER'
};
Logger.log(groupEmail);
AdminDirectory.Members.insert(member, groupEmail);
}
}
I'm trying to use Apps Script to change the owner of a Google Classroom course.
According to the documentation I can do it using .patch(). This is the relevant script:
var body = {
ownerId: owner
}
var mask={
mask:'ownerId'
}
var optArgs = (mask, body);
var course = {
name: classname,
courseState: state,
description: desc,
descriptionHeading: descHead,
room: room,
section: section
};
Classroom.Courses.patch(course, courseId, optArgs )
When I run it to update the owner I get the following error message
Could not be updated Invalid JSON payload received. Unknown name "ownerId": Cannot bind query parameter. Field 'ownerId' could not be found in request message.
Just to demonstrate a contrast, when I run .update() instead:
Classroom.Courses.update(course, courseId)
...the rest of the course details are updated perfectly, however .update() doesn't allow you to change the owner; it has to be a .patch() to do that.
Just had the same problem, the issue is the optArgs - you just want the mask in there, not your changed data.
var optArgs = { mask: 'ownerId' };
var course = {
name: classname,
courseState: state,
description: desc,
descriptionHeading: descHead,
room: room,
section: section,
ownerId: owner
};
Classroom.Courses.patch(course, courseId, optArgs );
I just tried this a few moments ago and it worked. Take into account that, for this to work, the user must already be a teacher in the specific class, and then this will make that teacher the owner.
function changeTeacherOwner() {
var course = { 'ownerId': "EMAIL OF TEACHER" };
Classroom.Courses.patch(course, "COURSE ID", {'updateMask':'ownerId'});
}
Based on documentation, this is working as intended.
courses.update has no ownerId parameters, only id.
But if you check courses.patch it has the updateMask parameter which accepts ownerId as a valid field.
For detailed information on this service, see the reference documentation for the Classroom API.
I'm trying to get certain data from a json link:
bittrex.com/api/v1.1/public/getticker?market=BTC-DRS
in my node IRC bot using:
https://www.npmjs.org/package/node.bittrex.api
Part of the code:
var url = ('https://bittrex.com/api/v1.1/public/getticker?market=BTC-DRS');
bittrex.options({
'apikey' : settings.ticker.apikey,
'apisecret' : settings.ticker.secretkey,
'stream' : false,
'verbose' : false,
'cleartext' : true,
});
case 'ticker':
var user = from.toLowerCase();
bittrex.sendCustomRequest(url, function(ticker, err) {
if(err) {
winston.error('Error in !ticker command.', err);
client.say(channel, settings.messages.error.expand({name: from}));
return;
}
winston.info('Fetched Price From BitTrex', ticker);
client.say(channel, settings.messages.ticker.expand({name: user, price: ticker}));
});
break;
It works but outputs in IRC
[1:21am] <nrpatten> !ticker
[1:21am] <DRSTipbot> nrpatten The current DRS price at BitTrex {"success":true,"message":"","result":{"Bid":0.00000155,"Ask":0.00000164,"Last":0.00000155}}
I have used a couple of things to get it to show only "Last" from the reply but i keep getting errors.
Or get certain data from https://bittrex.com/api/v1.1/public/getmarketsummaries
Like any info i want from:
{"MarketName":"BTC-DRS","High":0.00000161,"Low":0.00000063,"Volume":280917.11022708,"Last":0.00000155,"BaseVolume":0.33696054,"TimeStamp":"2014-10-04T15:14:19.66","Bid":0.00000155,"Ask":0.00000164,"OpenBuyOrders":33,"OpenSellOrders":138,"PrevDay":0.00000090,"Created":"2014-06-18T04:35:38.437"}
Thanks for any help
Assuming you've parsed the JSON (e.g. via JSON.parse(str);), you just use whatever property name you want to get at. For example:
var info = JSON.parse('{"MarketName":"BTC-DRS","High":0.00000161,"Low":0.00000063,"Volume":280917.11022708,"Last":0.00000155,"BaseVolume":0.33696054,"TimeStamp":"2014-10-04T15:14:19.66","Bid":0.00000155,"Ask":0.00000164,"OpenBuyOrders":33,"OpenSellOrders":138,"PrevDay":0.00000090,"Created":"2014-06-18T04:35:38.437"}');
console.log(info.Bid);
Also, on an unrelated matter, typically callback parameters follow the error-first format (e.g. (err, result) instead of (result, err)) in order to be consistent with node core and most other modules on npm.
I am using twitter login & offline tweet post by saving Access-token, AccessTokenSecret using Github Twitterizer version 2.4.2.
DLLs used:
1.)Twitterizer version 2.4.2
2.)Newtonsoft.Json version 4.5.5
Result :
We are getting below result.
Access-level : Twitterizer.AccessLevel.Unavailable
Content : ""
Result : Unauthorized
RequestUrl : http://api.twitter.com/1/account/verify_credentials.json
We are unable to get JSON data while sending details like Access-token, AccessTokenSecret, Consumer-key, Consumer-secret.
We have also installed PCA-3G2.pem and PCA-3G3.pem certificates on our SSL/TLS server, but we are still facing this issue. Kindly help to get it resolved. (find below the code snippet, I've used in my web-application)
Code :
OAuthTokens tokens = new OAuthTokens()
{
Access-token = XXX-XXX,
AccessTokenSecret =XXX-XXX,
ConsumerKey = XXX-XXX,
ConsumerSecret = XXX-XXX
};
TwitterResponse<TwitterUser> twitterResponse = TwitterAccount.VerifyCredentials(tokens);
if (twitterResponse.Result == RequestResult.Success)
{
ResultLabel.Text = string.Format("Success! Verified as {0}", twitterResponse.ResponseObject.ScreenName);
TwitterResponse<TwitterStatus> twitterRes = TwitterStatus.Update(tokens, "Some 2", null);
ResultLabel.CssClass = "ResultLabelSuccess";
if (twitterRes.Result == RequestResult.Success)
{
ResultLabel.Text += string.Format(". Update Status Success!! Updated text {0}", twitterRes.ResponseObject.Text);
ResultLabel.CssClass = "ResultLabelSuccess";
}
else
{
ResultLabel.Text += string.Format(". Update Status Failed! {0}", twitterRes.ErrorMessage);
ResultLabel.CssClass = "ResultLabelFailed";
}
}
else
{
ResultLabel.Text = string.Format("Failed! \"{0}\"", twitterResponse.ErrorMessage ?? "Not Authorized.");
ResultLabel.CssClass = "ResultLabelFailed";
}
I have spent 2 weeks for research on this issue and finally find the solution. According to Twitter, you need to use HTTPS connection instead of HTTP from 14th Jan 2014. If you are using Twitterizer version 2.4.2, please modify the Twitterizer24Classes file, and change "http://api.twitter.com/1/" to "".
How Can I index json data using NEST?
If I try to index some data in JSON, it gives me the following error :
MapperParsingException[Malformed content, must start with an object]
I saw we can do this using PlainElastic.Net etc.
Is there a way of doing it in NEST?
Here's how to index a single post in NEST:
var post = new Post() { Id = 12, ... }
var status = client.Index<Post>(post);
Here's how to bulk index many docs:
var descriptor = new BulkDescriptor();
foreach (var i in Enumerable.Range(0, 1000))
descriptor.Index<ElasticSearchProject>(op => op.Object(new ElasticSearchProject {Id = i}));
var result = this._client.Bulk(descriptor);
In the NEST docs, check out the Index and Bulk sections for more info.
