Getting 500 for get_account_tree call in box API - box-api

I am getting 500 http status code for few user when i am making get_account_tree call.
For only one user I am getting application_restricted, how can this be possible? all other users are working fine.
I am making a curl call like this:
curl https://www.box.com/api/1.0/rest?\
action=get_account_tree&api_key=XXXXXX&auth_token=XXXXX\
&par‌​ams[]=nofiles&folder_id=0

As indicated in the documentation, it's strongly recommended that you use the onelevel parameter because some Box accounts may be thousands of folders deep, in which case the call will not return. If you add this parameter to your get_account_tree calls, it should work without 500-ing.

Facebook Graph API returns a different response on a different script but same -not invalid- tokens

I am trying to make a simple python script that posts a text message to a facebook page using requests.
I actually managed to succeed this feat, however, when I add the same logic to a bigger project of mine, a certain request returns a different json.
According to this page https://developers.facebook.com/docs/pages/access-tokens I can exchange the short lived user token I generate in the graph explorer tool for a long lived one that lasts 60 days. This worked for me until now. When I run the same functions, same variables on another .py file that includes other logic as well the request does not return this line:
"expires_in": SECONDS-UNTIL-TOKEN-EXPIRES
And of course later on if I continue the logic and use the token it returns (which is the same) for, let's say, a make_post function the request prints
{'error': {'message': '(#200) If posting to a group, requires app being installed in the group, and \\\n either publish_to_groups permission with user token, or both manage_pages \\\n and publish_pages permission with page token; If posting to a page, \\\n requires both manage_pages and publish_pages as an admin with \\\n sufficient administrative permission', 'type': 'OAuthException', 'code': 200, 'fbtrace_id': 'AqYMMeOcOniWAGgEEtsEURs'}
Why does it not successfully return, the user token had not expired and it has the requires rights. Furthermore I tested this in a smaller .py file and it worked.
Another thing I found out here https://developers.facebook.com/support/bugs/523165725596520/?join_id=f1ff8392b49675c here is that other people have actually reported the same issue but it has been closed as 'intended by design' however there is no information of a solution.
Running the request in my browser also does not work correctly.
Do you have any ideas? I am completely clueless.
Thank you very much in advance
As #CBroe in a comment said, the expires_in didn't have anything to do with my error. The token it returns if valid. The issue I had later on had to do with the url I was parsing

Restrict feathers service method to user for external but allow any queries for internal calls

I want to restrict calls to a Feathers service method for externals calls with associateCurrentUser.
I also want to allow the server to call this service method without restricting it.
The use case is that through this service then clients use a lock table, all clients can see all locks, and occasionally the server should clear out abandoned rows in this table. Row abandonment can happen on network failures etc. When the server removes data then the normal Feathers remove events should be emitted to the clients.
I would imagine that this should be a mix of associateCurrentUser and disallow hooks but I can't even begin to experiment with this as I don't see how it would be put together.
How would one implement this, please?
Update:
I found this answer User's permissions in feathers.js API from Daff which implies that if the hook's context.params.provider is null then the call is internal, otherwise external. Can anyone confirm if this is really so in all cases, please?
It seems to be so from my own tests but I don't know if there are any special cases out there that might come and bite me down the line.
If the call is external params.provider will be set to the transport that has been used (currently either rest, socketio or primus, documented here, here and here).
If called internally on the server there is not really any magic. It will be whatever you pass as params. If you pass nothing it will be undefined if you pass (or merge with) hook.params in a hook it will be the same as what the original method was called with.
// `params` is an empty object so `params.provider` will be `undefined`
app.service('messages').find({})
// `params.provider` will be `server`
app.service('messages').find({ provider: 'server' })
// `params.provider` will be whatever the original hook was called with
function(hook) {
hook.app.service('otherservice').find(hook.params);
}

Elasticsearch does not return jsonp

im trying to connect my polymer element to my own elasticsearch-server.
My first problem was, that they are on two different ports, so it had to choose JSONP because of Cross-Domain problems.
So I found out, that I just have to add
http.jsonp.enable: true
in the elasticsearch.yml.
Im starting the server simply by executing the "elasticsearch.bat".
I've indexed data.
If I try to load the API via iron-jsonp-library, im always getting an unexpected token error.
<iron-jsonp-library id="libraryLoader"
library-url="http://127.0.0.1:9200/data/_search?pretty%%callback%%"
notify-event="api-load"
callbackName="jsonpCallback">
</iron-jsonp-library>
In Google Chrome, I'm getting following result from elasticsearch
{"took":2,"timed_out":false,"_shards":{"total":5,"successful":5,"failed":0},"hits":{"total":5,"max_score":1.0,"hits":[{"_index":"data","_type":"data","_id":"5","_score":1.0,"_source":{"id":5,"name":"Meyr","manufacturer":"Meyr","weight":1.0,"price":1.0000,"popularity":1,"instock":true,"includes":"Meyr"}},{"_index":"data","_type":"data","_id":"2","_score":1.0,"_source":{"id":2,"name":"Meier","manufacturer":"Meier","weight":1.0,"price":1.0000,"popularity":1,"instock":true,"includes":"Meier"}},{"_index":"data","_type":"data","_id":"4","_score":1.0,"_source":{"id":4,"name":"Mair","manufacturer":"Mair","weight":1.0,"price":1.0000,"popularity":1,"instock":true,"includes":"Mair"}},{"_index":"data","_type":"data","_id":"1","_score":1.0,"_source":{"id":1,"name":"Maier","manufacturer":"Maier","weight":1.0,"price":1.0000,"popularity":1,"instock":true,"includes":"Maier"}},{"_index":"data","_type":"data","_id":"3","_score":1.0,"_source":{"id":3,"name":"Mayr","manufacturer":"Mayr","weight":1.0,"price":1.0000,"popularity":1,"instock":true,"includes":"Mayr"}}]}}
Due to some internet knowledge of JSONP, its not jsonp.
Why is my elasticsearch server, not formatting right?
Are you prior to v2.0? Looks like they removed jsonp in 2.0 (elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/2.2/…).
Alsopretty%%callback%% doesn't look right, the %%callback%% macro usually needs to be the value of name (like onload=%%callback%%). The element replaces %%callback%% with the name of a global function that is generated for you.

Access token for Facebook Graph API

I've been looking for an exact explanation of how to get and use access tokens for public pages.
I'm trying to list the events for a public page, then grab all the event IDs and make another call to each ID, then send the complete list somewhere (I will handle that, I just need access to the JSON information for each event, which I can't). The following works for me:
https://graph.facebook.com/pages/PAGEID/events?accesstoken=ACCESSTOKEN
And gives me a list of all the events - when, title, where etc. But if I try to do:
https://graph.facebook.com/events/EVENTID/?accesstoken=ACCESSTOKEN
I get an error 100 - why is this? Shouldn't this work? All the events are public, and since fetching the page's events works, it shouldn't be because of a restriction (alcohol, location etc) I assume?
The ID should be used directly after the facebook URL, like:
https://graph.facebook.com/EVENTID?access_token=ACCESSTOKEN

Get JSON from Google Apps Script URL via Erlang

Good Evening!
I've been looking into the possibility of using GAS(Google Apps Script) to host a small bit of javascript that lets me use the new Google finance apps api. The intention being that I'll be using the stock information for a project which involves the use of stock data. I know that there are a few ways to get stock information from Google, but the data that the finanace app returns is more in-line with other sources we are using. (One constraint on this project is that we have multiple sources).
I've written the javascript and I can call a httpc:request to the URL for the script given to me from Google. In the browser the JS returns the json object as I want it, however when the call is made from Erlang I'm getting it in a list of ascii. From checking the values it appears to be a document starting like:
Below is the javascript and the url to see the json:
https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbzEvuuQl4jkrbPCz7hf9Zv4nvIOzqAkBxL1ixslLBxmSEhksQM/exec
function doGet() {
var stock = FinanceApp.getStockInfo('LON:TSCO');
return ContentService.createTextOutput(JSON.stringify(stock))
.setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.JSON);
}
For the erlang, it's a simple request but I've not been doing erlang long, so perhaps I've messed something up here (The URL being the one mentioned above). I've got crypto / ssl / inets when I'm testing this on the command line.
{ok, {Version, Headers, Body}} = httpc:request(get, URL, []}, [], []).
I think it's also worth mentioning that when i curl it from Cygwin, I get a massive load of HTML also, I've included it below, but if you see it you'll thank me for not posting it in here! http://pastebin.com/UtJHXjRm
I've been updating the script as I go with the new versions but I'm at a bit of a loss as to why it's not returning correctly.
If anyone can give me any pointers I'd be very grateful! I get the feeling that it's not intended to be used this way, perhaps only within other Google products and such.
Cheers!
It would be necessary to review how are you deploying the Web App, specifically the Who has access to the app, to access without authentication should be configured as shown in the image:
See Deploying Your Script as a Web App from the documentation.
In my test, by running:
curl -L https://script.google.com/macros/s/************/exec
Get the following result:

Possibly your GET is not following the REDIRECT that happens when you use contentService. Look at the html returned there is a redirect in there.
