The Beta API provides two different end points for getting the content of a OneNote page from Live, one using the ContentUrl and one the Id. Both work. The GET looks as if it should work in the same way to replace a page by using a PUT instead (it's not documented as doing this, I'm guessing)
PUT https://www.onenote.com/api/beta/pages/{pageId}/content
but I get a 404 if I try this, using he same Id I've just successfuly used for a GET. Can one replace an entire page?

PUT operations aren't yet supported on the OneNote API. We do support PATCH operations on a page to update specific elements. More information can be found at
OneNote PATCH reference documentation and OneNote PATCH blog post
Feel free to add a request for the PUT operation at https://onenote.uservoice.com

I am trying to access old version of Wiki pages using data instead of "oldid". Usually to access and a version of a wiki page, I have to use the page id like this https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=969106986, is there a way to access the same page using the date without knowing the ID? If i know for example that there is a version of the page published on "12:44, 23 July 2020 "
In addition to the "main" API (called the action API by MediaWiki developers), you can also use the REST API. It may or may not be enabled at all wikis, but if you intend to query Wikipedia content.
The revision module of the \action API (linked to in #amirouche's answer) allows you to get the wikitext format of a page. That is the source format that is used by MediaWiki, and it isn't easy to get a HTML from it, which can be easier to analyze (especially if you do ĺingquistic analytics, for instance).
If HTML would be better for your use case, you can use the REST API, see https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/#/. For instance, if you're interested in English Wikipedia's Main Page as of July 2008, you can use https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/page/html/Main_Page/223883415.
The number (223883415) is the revision ID, which you can get through the action API.
However, keep in mind that re-parses the revision's wikitext into HTML. That means it doesn't need to be exactly what showed as of the date the revision was saved. For instance, the wikitext can contain conditions on current date (that is used for automatically upating the mainpage). If you're intereted in seeing that, you would need to use archive.org.
You can use the MediaWiki API to get revision; refer to the documentation at: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Revisions.
You need to map revision ids with dates. It will be straightforward :).
I've been wondering how to fetch the PlayStation server status. They display it on this page:
https://status.playstation.com/en-us/
But PlayStation is known to use APIs instead of PHP database fetches. After looking around in the source code of the site, I found that they have a separate file called /data.json.
https://status.playstation.com/en-us/data.json
The content of this file is the same as the index file (for some reason). They use stuff like {{endDateTitle}} and {{message}}, but I can't find where it's defined, if it's pulled using a separate file or just pulled from a database using PHP.
How can I "reverse" this site and see if there's a API I can use to display the status on my site?
Maybe I did not get the question right, but it seems pretty straightforward.
If using firefox, open Developer tools, Network. Reload the page.
You can clearly see the requested URL
https://status.playstation.com/data/statuses/region/SCEA.json
It seems that an empty list as a status means "No problems" (since there are no problems I cannot verify this assumption. That's all
The parenthesis {{}} are used by various HTML templating languages, like angular, so you'd have to go through the js code to understand where they get updated.
Does anyone have experience in using the Wiki API Sandbox with making REST calls on custom wikis? By custom wiki I mean something like http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/.
I particularly want to get access to some of the Pokemon content found on Bulbapedia, but not sure where to start or if it's even possible to use REST on custom wikis.
My current solution is to just use a standard wikipedia page with calls like:
To Get All Pokemon:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&format=json&page=List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon
To Get Bulbasaur:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&format=json&page=Bulbasaur
I get some JSON that I can work with, but would love to be able to explore the content of a Bulbapedia page AND have access to all of Ken Sugimori's artwork.
Yes, MediaWiki comes with API bundled. Furthermore, since 1.27 it includes a rewritten ApiSandbox that I originally wrote as an extension. So as Bulbapedia is running 1.27.1, it has the sandbox too.
I am at this website -
http://www.zoominfo.com/s/#!search/company/1.64.eyJjb21wYW55TmFtZSI6xIB2YWx1xIw6ImEiLCJpc1VzZWTEjXRyxJN9fQ%3D%3D
If you see the company name - Agilent Technologies Inc.
Its neither there in page source, nor in any json format.
But it does show in the Dom of Chrome Developer tool.
I have looked and analysed almost every requests that it sent, but still couldn't find where this data is saved.
By where the data is saved - I am looking to find where I can scrape that data from?
If by using python-requests and BeautifulSoup
I do see an XMLHTTPREQUEST made, not sure what that means, or if that is the clue to my answer.
I am still learning python, and it would be a very useful information if someone helps me with this.
Thanks in advance.
After the HTML is loaded, js requests for the data through an XMLHTTPREQUEST which is loaded right after the request is received on your client. That's why you see the DOM element right there using element inspector.
You didn't mention what goal you want to achieve or what tool you are using. Please be specific on your question. If you do not have any idea about this kind of pattern, google out angularjs, see some example.
do see an XMLHTTPREQUEST made, not sure what that means, or if that is the clue to my answer.
It means that javascript embedded in the page is sending an extra HHTP request to the web server. It is likely that the "Agilent Technologies Inc." text is being returned in the server's response to that request, and the javascript in the page is then injecting the text into the DOM in the appropriate place.
Where is the Data stored on Website
That is a completely different question ...
(You have already noted that the data (e.g. the company name) gets injected into the page displayed by your browser.)
On the server side, the data could be stored in the web server (or its back-end systems) in a variety of ways. Or it might not be stored at all. There is no way of knowing ... without looking at the server-side code and configurations.
I'm creating a wiki using Mediawiki for the first time. I would like to include automatically all backlinks of the current page in a template (like the "See also" section). I tried to play with the API, successfully, but I still haven't succeed in including the useful section of the result in my template.
I have been querying Google and Stackoverflow for days (maybe in the wrong way) but I'm still stuck.
Can somebody help me?
As far as I know, there is no reasonable way to do that. Probably the closest you could get is to write a JavaScript code that reacts on the presence of a specific HTML element in the page, makes the API request and then updates the HTML to include the result.
It’s not possible in wiki text to execute any JavaScript or use even more uncommon HTML. As such you won’t be able to use the MediaWiki API like that.
There are multiple different options you have to achieve something like this though:
You could use the API by including custom JavaScript code on MediaWiki:Common.js. The code there will be included automatically and can be used to enhance the wiki experience. This obviously requires JavaScript on the client so it might not be the best option; but at least you could use the API directly. You would have to add something to figure out where to place the results correctly though.
A better option would be to use an extension that gives you this output. You can either try to find an extension that already provides this functionality, or write your own that uses the internal MediaWiki API (not the JS one) to access that content.
One extension I could personally recommend you that does this (and many other things), is DynamicPageList (full disclosure: I’m somewhat affiliated with that project). It allows you to perform complex page selections.
For example what you are trying to do is to find all pages which link to your page. This can be easily done by DPL like this:
{{ #dpl: linksto = {{FULLPAGENAME}} }}
I wrote a blog post recently showing how to call the API to get the job queue size and display that inside of the wiki page. You can read about it at Display MediaWiki job queue size inside your wiki. This solution does require the External Data extension however. The code looks like:
{{#get_web_data: url={{SERVER}}{{SCRIPTPATH}}/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=statistics&format=json
| format=JSON
| data=jobs=jobs}}
{{#external_value:jobs}}
You could easily swap in a different API call to get other data. For the specific item your looking for, #poke's answer above is probably better.
