  1. Contacts/me Returns null

    Hi!
    Using some of the sample code from the GitHub repo I've created a few custom PHP pages for events on a third party site. I'm trying to make the registration functionality work.
    The problem that I'm running into is the Contacts/me API call returns null even with a user logged in. I'm using the format:
    {baseAPIaddress}/{version}/Accounts/{accountID}/Contacts/me

    I am able to run Contact/{ContactID} and get the relevant data back. Do anyone know what might cause this?

    Thanks, Jason.

    The problem was solved.
    Note that API key isn’t connected with any contact. So contacts/me will return null if you are not authenticated by login/password.

  2. api events

    I am having trouble adding a new event through the api. I get a 403 error. Here is my google script code if anybody would be so kind as to point out where I have messed up. :) Thanks so much.

    It is possible with Public API. Please take a look at our help: help.wildapricot.com/display/DOC/API+V2+calls

  5. Use of Event Registration IDs

    I am using the API to determine if members have registered or their registration has been cancelled for an Event.

    At the moment I cannot see any way of knowing that a registration has been cancelled from the API.

    So, I will need to check if the registrations have changed or not since the last time it was checked. This means saving the Event Registration IDs in a file.
    What is the valid range of a Registration ID?

    Unfortunately there is no edit timestamp in event registration data structure.
    Registration Id could be any integer from 0 to 2147483647.

    In your case I would recommend to store all registrations as JSON in some file or database and check it’s state from time to time.

  6. Profile last updated field differs in filter from value read in API ?

    Hi,
    we have a job that queries via the API searching with a filter on "Profile last updated". The query can return no results, it doesn't find any contacts changed since the last query run. However if we just iterate through the contacts and read the Profile last updated field it can be more recent shown in the API results than displayed in the WA web interface. It appears when reading via the API the "last login date" is used as the Profile last updated date if the last login is newer than the last profile update.

    Summary:
    Profile last…

    The date in API and in web interface are taken from the same field in database. I was not able to reproduce error you described. Probably it was an error, which is already fixed.

    Please let us know if you encounter any error like this.

  8. Setting a Password when creating a new contact/member

    Hi,

    I need to create a contact through the API through a 3rd party server. I have no problem creating a contact. However, when I set a password and try to login after I have created the contact, I get an error saying that I have the wrong login information.

    Secondly, when someone signs up they get an email with a password sent to them. Is this possible as well through the API? When I create a contact through the API I want to be able to send them the password in their email so they can login.

    Group participation data can be foubd in the fiels with name ‘Group participation’. For example:

    var contact = getContactById( 123 )
    for( i=0; i<contact.FieldValues.length;i++) {
    var record = contact.FieldValues[i];
    if( record.FieldName == ‘Group participation’)
    var groups = record.Value;
    }

  10. Work around for sorting members who are using their photo albums.

    1. I created a question (required to Members) "Are you using your albums to display your art?" Yes/No

    2. The membership field was made public

    3. I then created a saved search on the new membership field that allows me to pull out only members who have a "yes"

    4. I created another Membership directory on a separate page. So I have 2 membership directories in use. One that displays all members and another that displays members who are using their photo albums.

    5. I created a link on my home page directing the public to view the membership directory only for those who have…

  14. Built-in export/reports data via api

    Can we please access the data from the built-in Wild Apricot "export" buttons via the API?

    Example: We currently go to Finances > Payments & Refunds > [Export button] > [tick all boxes] > [export as csv], then open the downloaded file and copy/paste into a Google Sheet so we can organise it.

    Surely when the Web Interface generates this export it is simply an internal API call... I want to skip the login/generate/download/copy/paste steps and instead pull the same report data straight in to the Google Sheet via the API. Is this possible?

  15. Change the batch interface to support the POST method

    I have been trying to call the batch API interface from Google Apps Script. Apps Script correctly realizes that BATCH is not a valid HTTP method and prevents me from submitting the request. There must also be many other HTTP client libraries that prevent this.

    The solution is simple - just extend the batch API to also allow a request submitted with the POST method.

    That happens because your try to access API from web browser (possibly Ionic builder). The web app makes cross origin requests, which are not supported in API.

    There is no problem to access API from mobile app, our own mobile app for admins works exactly this way. However if you try to access API from ionic builder, then you will face CORS error. Here is a detailed explanation of reasons and possible workaround: blog.ionic.io/handling-cors-issues-in-ionic.

    Please let me know if the tutorial helps or not.

    If you need a list of field descriptions, you should get event by id. The data you need are located in Event.Details.EventRegistrationFields

    I've been trying for a while now to get the fields in a contact called:

    Email delivery disabled
    Receiving emails disabled

    to change using the API update contact call. I can change other fields, these two just refuse to change. Is there a trick to this, or is this another one of those 'you can't do it' features?

    According to contact fields description both of these fields are read only.
    You can get contact fields metadata by calling https://api.wildapricot.org/v2/accounts/XXX/ContactFields/ The result is a collection of fields descriptions. Each record has a parameter “IsEditable”, so you can check if any specific field can be modified with API or not.

  19. Attempting to use mod_auth_openidc to authenticate with SSO, OAuth2 standards?

    I'm attempting to configure our third party website using Apache and modauthopenidc to invoke the SSO authentication endpoints on our WildApricot website.

    I've gotten as far as manually assembling a correct authentication request URL:

    https://discoamigos.wildapricot.org/sys/login/OAuthLogin?response_type=authorization_code&scope=contacts_me&client_id=...&state=...&redirect_uri=...&nonce=...&claimed_account_id=...

    That shows me a login dialog as expected... However, when trying to use mod-auth-openidc to generate the authorization URL, it doesn't allow the requesttype of "authorizationcode". It only lets me set the request type to "code", which seems to break the authentication page fetch on the WA end.

    This would seem to be an issue with Oauth2 'standards'. It would…
