I try to get a result by themovidb API with a thetvdb ID
I'm not sure what I'm doin wrong
Documentation
My try to access the API
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/find/71663?api_key=XXX
My result
{"status_code":6,"status_message":"Invalid id - The pre-requisite id is invalid or not found"}
ID 71663 on thetvdb
I'm pretty sure I get this working before - but this time I can't figure out whats wrong. I think I'm missing something that defines that I'm looking for a TV show.
You have to specify the ?external_source parameter

I am trying to add a run with the add_run endpoint, but in my automation code I only have the test cases ids but not the project id (which according the the docs is mandatory).
Right now I am doing:
get all projects with /get_projects
get all cases /get_cases/{project_id}
Then I loop over the cases I get and add the project_id to the case so I could create an add_run with the proper project_id.
This seems like the wrong way to do it.
Anybody has a better solution?
Also is there a way to create a run without a project_id? for example if I have a sanity run that includes cases from many projects.
Any help is appreciated.
You can do the following to get the parent project ID:
get the case by ID and capture value of the suite_id field
get the parent suite by the value of the suite_id field and capture value of the project_id field <--- here you have your project ID and can use it for creating runs.
I'm running a local server playing around with an API using Django. I have a model called 'Users' populated with a few objects, and am using DefaultRouter.
I want to know what the URL would be if I were to DELETE a specific object from this model. For example, if I wanted to GET a user with an ID of 1 in this model, the URL would be: "localhost:8000/Users/1/". What would the equivalent be to DELETE this user?
I found an explanation of this on the REST API website (below), however, I don't understand what any of the syntaxes means.
What is {prefix}, {url_path}, {lookup} and [.format]? If anyone could provide an example of what this might be using a localhost that would be really helpful.
Thanks
Let us take an example of an API (URL) to update book data with id (pk) being 10. It would look something like this:
URL: http://www.example.com/api/v1/book/10/
Method: PUT/PATCH
With some data associated.
If you want to delete you just need to change method to DELETE instead of put or patch.
Regarding your second question lets compare the url with the parameters.
prefix: http://www.example.com/api/v1/book
lookup: 10
format: It specifies what type of data do you expect when you hit the API. Generally it is considered to be json.
url_path: In general, every thing after look up except query string is considered to be url_path.
I have been using XML to create invoices but I am updating my code and switching to using JSON.
When using XML I would get a set of XML returned and part of the data was the new Invoice ID.
However, so it seems at least, when I create a new invoice via the API using JSON, I just get "http/200" (or something like that) returned and no info about what the new invoice ID is!
I need the invoice ID so I can post an attachment.
I tried adding "?summarizeErrors=false" to the end of the URL but nothing was returned unless there was an issue - kinda what it says it does :-)
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks, Jeremy
Its Ok....I resolved it. Wrong value populated in a property in the HTTP control I was using...ugh.
I'm using google places api, but it returns the value with different place_id.
I have considered this blog : https://developers.google.com/places/documentation/search
I have requested with place id like this :
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/details/json?key=AAIS...
In this url, you can see that the place_id is "EiJ..."
But in the returning json, i have received different place_id.
"place_id" : "AASS...",
"reference" : "df..."
When I have tried with reference, it was the same.
What did I wrong?
Is this the same location with different place_id?
Thanks for your help...
1) Never post your API key on a public forum. Go get yourself a new one.
2) reference has been deprecated, so you don't need to include it
3) EiJG... doesn't look like a Placeid. My guess is that you are trying to look up a value that doesn't exist and you're getting strange behavior.
Run a Place Search and get the Placeid and try again. You haven't posted what you searched for initially so it's impossible to verify that EiJ... really is a valid Placeid.
You can also have more than one place ID associated with a particular place.
In that case, if you request details using one place ID, you can get another ID back (you used the alternate ID, it returns what it considers the primary).
I found your question how to deal with this because I'll be storing information using their primary key and if it changes it will cause issues since the ID initially comes from their search (I'll get the new ID and not realize it is associated with the information I stored).
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?
