How can I prevent to set a required recipient and the Open Graph object to appear? - embed
I am currently trying to embed a Yammer Open Graph feed into SharePoint pages. I am using the following configuration:
yam.connect.embedFeed({
container: "#embedded-feed"
, feedType: "open-graph"
, feedId: ""
, config: {
defaultGroupId: 27862 // recipient is required so I specified a dedicated group for article feeds
//, use _ sso: true
, header: false
, footer: false
, showOpenGraphPreview: false
, defaultToCanonical: false
, hideNetworkName: true
, promptText: "What do you think of this article?"
}
, objectProperties: {
url: "" // <empty> takes the url from the current page
, type: "page"
}
});
(feed configuration can be generated through https://www.yammer.com/widget/configure)
It seems that a recipient is required, so I had to create a dummy group and specify this dummy group-id where all the messages are landing. I don't want to polute some regular group with Open Graph object feeds. Can this be addressed in a better way?
Additionally, at least the first message contains the Open Graph object attached to it. This doesn't look nice, and is quite unnecessary as the feed is completely embedded onto the object already. Can this attachment be prevented? Moreover, as soon as you specify a calculated object url into the objectProperties, the object is attached to all messages. Which is completely overdone. Ideally the Open Graph object url is only used to identify the specific object feed.
Refer to the Facebook api where these two requirements are met: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/comments
I think I have captured your questions below. Added my answer
How can I prevent to set a required recipient?
You don't need to specify defaultGroupId. Adding this value simply changes the default Yammer group that the Embed Feed lists.
From the documentation:
'You can set a default group for comments in an OGO Object Feed that will appear in the destination box of the publisher by specifying a defaultGroupId. The user can change this and post to a group of their choice.
If you do not specify a defaultGroupId, the destination box will be left blank and the user will be prompted to add a group on their own when posting a comment.
Specifying defaultGroupId: 0 will set the default to All Company.'
https://developer.yammer.com/docs/commenting
How can I prevent the Open Graph object to appear in the posting message window?
I am pretty sure this is by design. I can see how this can be confusing. I don't think there is a way to disable that.

(Microsoft Dynamics Online) Get Account GUID inside embedded Web Resource
I'm trying to access entities (Contacts) in a HTML WebResource inside an Account formular in Microsoft Dynamics. However I cannot figure out how to get the record GUID (accountId) from the PageContext. It tells me the entityId is undefined. I'm trying to replace this deprechated code line: const accountId = parent.Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId(); I've been trying to use const pageContext = window.parent.Xrm.Utility.getPageContext(); but the attributes are almost all null or undefined including the entityId. All it tells me is that I'm in an account record. See image. https://imgur.com/a/oeA1SOz Thanks for any help
Yes is possible, you were close in your second attempt.
This will return the id:
var id = parent.Xrm.Utility.getPageContext().input.entityId.replace("{", '').replace("}", '');

How do I use a google apps script to auto fill a google form with info taken from the user? [duplicate]
With the recent study-from-home dynamics hastly implemented by budget schools, I am now facing a mindless-robot-like-task of filling in attendance for my kids everyday multiple times per child. The school shared this form: I, being a developer, want to create a UI and have my kids submit thier attendance to this form on thier own when the teacher asks for one over Zoom. Ids it possible? I'm a .Net developer and have not developed anything for Office 365 Online and have no idea where to start looking for Google.
It is possible by reconstructing the form URL with pre-filled values. In the Google Form, each question is named internally with "entry.". For each of the question, you need to find the entry number and assign them the right values and add it to the URL parameters like in the below image: (Edited Oct 2021: The ids are no longer found in the name attribute of each input field in the HTML as shown in the image. They are now located in a div within the form element. #hdrz's answer below to look in the Javascript present just at the end of the body tag is now also defunct.) I've recreated your form here https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfrGn49hcbeioNNa25Osp4fwTG2xV3BmmN9-cMWWC2-xvcQyg/viewform And here is the reconstructed URL with prefill values https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfrGn49hcbeioNNa25Osp4fwTG2xV3BmmN9-cMWWC2-xvcQyg/viewform?entry.1475351979=Julia&entry.280503419=Andrews&entry.519373518=4&entry.301819105=E Hope it helps
As #AHunt writes, the entry number used to be in a name attribute on the form fields. As of this answer time, I can no longer find the name attribute on any of the form fields. However, now there is a script tag at the end of the body tag, with a short javascript code, and in it you can find the entry numbers, see here: Also, it is possible to submit the form directly with pre-filled values. Just replace viewform in the URL with formResponse. Similar URL as in the accepted answer, but now it will be submitted at once. Note that all required fields have to be filled! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfrGn49hcbeioNNa25Osp4fwTG2xV3BmmN9-cMWWC2-xvcQyg/formResponse?entry.1475351979=Julia&entry.280503419=Andrews&entry.519373518=4&entry.301819105=E&entry.1124370742=Art
I think I may be late but still give you a solution. I had made similar script to send my school attendance.
Every field in Google Forms is associated with a entry.<id>. You have two ways to automate the form.
One way is to extract those IDs with and make a dictionary where entry.<id> is the key and your answer is the value.Then you have to send a POST request to the form URL with the dictionary as the data. You have automated the form.
To extract the IDs, inspect the html code and look at the <script> at the (very) end of the page. It lòoks something like this :
var FB_PUBLIC_LOAD_DATA_ = [null,[null,[[2030831236,"First Name (in English)",null,0,[[1475351979,null,1]

As you can see there are two numbers with each field. One of them is the ID and another one I don't know. The second number is the ID we need. Using RegEx we can extract all the numbers and collect every second number in a list. This list will contain all the IDs.
Another way, as stated by others, is to reconstruct the URL with prefilled values. But in this too you have to extract the IDs.
I have included both of them in one and made this script :
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import re
def get_questions(url):
page = requests.get(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.content, 'html.parser')
content = soup.body.find_all(text = re.compile('var FB'))
match = re.findall('[,]["][\w\s]+["][,]', str(content))
#It will match all the questions in the form
question_strings = [x.strip('"') for x in match]
match_ids = re.findall('(?<=\[\[)(\d+)', str(content))
#It will find all the numbers in the content
question_ids = ['entry.' + x for x in match_ids[1:]]
#It will leave the first numbers (they are not the ids)
return question_ids
# Below are only for when you want to know the form fills with their corresponding entry ids
# questions = dict(zip(question_strings, question_ids))
# return questions
def send_answers(url, fname, lname, grade, section, subject): #arrange this as per your form requirements
ids = get_questions(url)
answers = [fname, lname, grade, section, subject]
response = dict(zip(ids, answers))
if 'viewform' in url:
s = url.index('viewform')
response_url = url.replace(url[s::], 'formResponse?')
try:
r = requests.post(response_url, response)
if r.status_code == 200:
return '[!] Attendence posted !'
#In case an error happens, it will raise an exception
else:
raise Exception
#After raising the exception it will retry to submit using url reconstruction with prefilled values
except:
try:
ans_list = [x + '=' + y for x, y in zip(ids, answers)]
for i in range(0, len(ans_list)):
response_url += ans_list[i]
response_url += '&'
response_url.strip("&")
r = requests.get(response_url)
status = r.status_code
if status == 200:
return '[!] Attendance sent !'
else:
raise Exception
#If still an error happens, it will print out a message.
except:
return '[!] Attendance not sent !'
url = 'Form URL here'
fname = 'Your first name here'
lname = 'Your last name here'
grade = 'Your grade here'
section = 'Section here'
subject = 'Enter subject'
print(send_answers(url, fname, lname, grade, section, subject))
Hope it helps. Sorry for my bad English.
As a Google Form editor you can get a pre-filled URL (complete with entry values) by choosing the 'Get pre-filled link' option at the top right of the page, after clicking the three dots. This will open the form in a new tab. The Submit (or Next) button will be replaced with a 'Get link' button. After filling in the desired form responses, clicking 'Get link' will open a preview of what users will see. If everything is correct, clicking the 'COPY LINK' button (at the bottom left of page) will provide the URL. The URL will look like this: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/yourFormidhere/viewform?usp=pp_url&entry.1890935147=exampleprefilledvalue1&entry.1928475566=exampleprefilledvalue2&entry.2145528193=exampleprefilledvalue3
You can find the IDs in the console development section of Chrome. Fill the form open networks tabs. You can find the ID of each query in the form.
Easiest way is to simply launch Developer Tools (F12 or Ctrl+Shift+I usually) and go to the Network tab. Enable "Preserve log". Then just submit your form as usual, with the values you want (or test values). In the Network tab, type "formResponse" in the filter bar. Find the latest entry and select it. Then go to Payload tab and click "view source". You should see something like this. The text you see in the form data is simply what your append to the link of your form plus a '?' (question mark). So in this case our link will be https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfrGn49hcbeioNNa25Osp4fwTG2xV3BmmN9-cMWWC2-xvcQyg/viewform?entry.1475351979=test&entry.280503419=test&entry.519373518=KG+1&entry.1124370742=French&entry.301819105=A&dlut=1662432187937&hud=true&entry.519373518_sentinel=&entry.301819105_sentinel=&entry.1124370742_sentinel=&fvv=1&partialResponse=%5Bnull%2Cnull%2C%22-6523749705829110087%22%5D&pageHistory=0&fbzx=-6523749705829110087. Now let's just remove the extra parameters that aren't answers. Find the last answer you input and remove the rest. Our new link will be https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfrGn49hcbeioNNa25Osp4fwTG2xV3BmmN9-cMWWC2-xvcQyg/viewform?entry.1475351979=test&entry.280503419=test&entry.519373518=KG+1&entry.1124370742=French&entry.301819105=A This will open the form page with pre-filled values. If you actually want to submit the response right away, replace "viewform" with "formResponse". The google form I tried is from #AHunt's answer, so thank you for that sample google form.
How do i get the User Image from a lookup list on Sharepoint 2013?
I'm really stuck with getting the User image from a lookup list using AJAX with SharePoint 2013.
Ok so im getting my data from a Sp list called 'Comments', and im selecting a SP generated field called 'Created By' however on my SP its actually called 'Author'. This field only shows an ID so ive expanded it with OData to get the 'Author' details.
So what im trying to do is set up a custom comment section. So im taking data from the 'Author / Created By' column and outputting that on top of the persons comment. This all works fine!
$.ajax({
url: _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/DigiBlog/_api/web/lists/getbyTitle('Comments')/items?$select=Comment,Likes,BlogId,Created,Author/ID,Author/FirstName,Author/LastName,Author/Title&$expand=Author/Id",
type: "GET",
headers: {
'accept': 'application/json;odata=verbose'
},
success: function (data) {
for (var i = 0; i < data.d.results.length; i++) {
var item = data.d.results[i];
self.blogComments.push(item);
//item.FirstName = item.FirstName.toLowerCase();
//console.log(item);
}
console.log("Comment User Info Called");
},
error: function () {
console.log("Comment User Info Error");
}
});
What i want is the picture Url from that user, so i can output an image of that person next to each comment. My Sharepoint is part of big organisation so theres a tonne of restrictions in place, one of which means i can't view the list of users so i can't see what fields i can actually use. Ive seen people use 'Picture' value in the select field, however when i try that the Ajax fails.
url: _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/DigiBlog/_api/web/lists/getbyTitle('Comments')/items?$select=Comment,Likes,BlogId,Created,Author/ID,Author/FirstName,Author/LastName,Author/Title&$expand=Author/Id",
All im looking for is the Author Img URl, ive tried Author/[Picture, PictureUrl, PictureUri, Image, ImageUri... and so on]. Ive spent 2 days on this and im not getting anywhere fast!
I either want a way to get the Picture Url or a way to show all the avaiable fields of 'Author' using console so i can find the relevant field i need to select.
Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!
It seems that we could not get picture url directly.
Firstly,you could get user name.
/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('Comments')/items(1)?$select=Owner/Name&$expand=Owner
Secondly,you could use this rest api to get picture url.
/_api/SP.UserProfiles.PeopleManager/GetPropertiesFor(accountName=#v)?#v='domain\username'&$select=PictureUrl
The different versions of rest api versions are introduced here.
Tip：The username obtained in the first step may need to be processed as in the example.
MailChimp Interested Value in "Group" always false after "subscribing"
I send over proper json formatted code, according to v2 api docs:
lists/subscribe.json
"GROUPINGS":[{"id":removed_id,"name":"grouping_name","groups":["group_name"]}]
I get back information about a member... It does not say they are interested in that group name..
lists/member-info.json
"GROUPINGS":[{"id":removed_id,"name":"grouping_name","form_field":"hidden","groups":
[{"name":"group_name","interested":false},{"name":"other_group_name","interested":false},
{"name":"other_group_name2","interested":false},{"name":"other_group_name3","interested":false}]}]
I do not understand how I can get these users to show up as "subscribed" to a group within my grouping. I have been trying for nearly 5 hours now. I have tried:
making sure the groups: value is an [] array.
trying out making that value a string (which surprisingly did not throw errors)
capitalizing "GROUPINGS" when sending it in merge_vars
not capitalizing "groupings" when sending in merge_vars
using the lists/update-member.json method to update these groups
using the name of my interest group instead of grouping in the grouping array.
using the option replace_interests on both true and false
In conclusion,
I had to email mailchimp a support ticket. Without changing my code at all - it works this morning. Interestingly enough, mailchimp was experiencing many issues yesterday with servers being down and alleged email hackings.
To be clear about which version of my code worked - following the API exactly for v2.
It was an error on mailchimp's end.
{
"id":"MY LIST ID",
"email":{
"email":"THE EMAIL TO SUBSCRIBE"
},
"merge_vars":{
"GROUPINGS":[
{
"id":THE GROUPING ID,
"groups":[
"THE NAME OF MY GROUP"
]
}
]
},
"double_optin":false,
"replace_interests":true,
"apikey":"MY API KEY"
}
Also, in case you are curious, replace_interests is true when the groups you send are supposed to replace existing groups the subscriber is interested in. False indicates that the groups you pass should be added to the interest groups.
If you are updating a member (method: lists/update-member), it may be best to set replace_interests to false just to make sure it does not overwrite your existing interest groups (possibly with blank groups). The default value for it is true, so this could be another place prone to error.
Box API: Get_managed_users returning all users
Using the Box 1.0 REST API, I am trying to work with the functions in SOAP UI. The API doc for get_managed_users with user_id=12345 (internal id retrieved with get_user_id call correctly) is returning all the users. The docs say that would be the case if you do not specify a user_id value. But my full command is: (Token and API key changed to protect the clueless) https://www.box.com/api/1.0/rest?user_id=27360&auth_token=blahbalhblah1234&action=get_managed_users&api_key=someKeyYouShouldNotSee Now I could work with the complete result list, but that won't scale as we get thousands of users into the system. I can make a call with edit_managed_user, using the same user_id value and the change is reflected in the UI, and in the next get_managed_users call. Thus I do have the correct user_id value, I would so assume. I tried testuser#gmail.com as the user_id value as well, and get the entire list back. This leads me to believe that somehow I am sending user_id wrong, but I just do not see it. Any hints? Why, with what seems like a valid user_id value is it acting like it is absent or incorrect?
Most likely you have either called this method with an invalid user_id, or one that is not in your set of managed users. Can you double check that the user comes back in your list of already managed users?
