API calls to update contacts suddenly failing
We have a Google Apps script that is used to update a custom contact field. This code has been working and unchanged for the past year, and has suddenly lost the ability to update contacts. Other API calls to get contacts, update event registrations, etc. are still working fine, but can't update any contact fields through the API. Attempts to do so result in an HTTP 500 error. We are still able to update contacts through the web interface.
Relevant information pasted after the break.

Hey WA Developers, I'm trying to work through some of the API documentation and I'm hung up on the "Uploading Pictures" documentation.

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/meI am able to run Contact/{ContactID} and get the relevant data back. Do anyone know what might cause this?
Thanks, Jason.
1 voteThe 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. -

Export members data into Google docs
How do I export Member data directly into a Google Doc (live)? Step-by-Step for newbies.
1 voteIf you need one time export, just make an export to Excel file (https://help.wildapricot.com/display/DOC/Exporting+members+and+other+contacts) and then upload this file to google drive.
If you want to do it on regular basis, you could make some automation using google script. We have a sample code in google script (https://github.com/WildApricot/ApiSamples/tree/master/GoogleScript), which could be a good starting point for your project.

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?1 voteUnfortunately 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.

fieldvalues contact api
I have an interesting issue you can help me with. I am using the Contacts API and calling it from a Javascript call using the WA API wrapper for jQuery. I got this code from the WA developer forum and loaded it into the files section to call locally from the WA install (rather than from the original location).

I am using the API to create a URL that I will pass to an external SaaS system, so I need to collect various contact/membership field data.
The testing page is at

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…1 voteThe 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.

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.
1 vote1. Creating contact
- Newly generated password should be passed in $postFields instead of “12345678”
- Method createWAContact should be modified to use a password
Please see improved version of your code here: https://gist.github.com/DmitriySmirnov/8d65a1417d9ffdfc9efe762fa492bbcc
2. Sending password
Currently you can’t send such email using API, however there is a lot of PHP libraries for sending emails. -

Work around for sorting members who are using their photo albums.
I created a question (required to Members) "Are you using your albums to display your art?" Yes/No
The membership field was made public
I then created a saved search on the new membership field that allows me to pull out only members who have a "yes"
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.
I created a link on my home page directing the public to view the membership directory only for those who have…

Querying Wild Apricot for Contact's passwords?
Is it possible to query Wild Apricot for a Contact's password? I need to keep an external CMS synced with the users that are in Wild Apricot that have memberships and thus would like it if the passwords can be kept in sync with Wild Apricot.
1 voteNo, it is not possible – we do not keep passwords. And no one usually does, it is not secure.
Instead, check out Single Sign On feature – https://help.wildapricot.com/display/DOC/Single%20sign-on%20service#Singlesign-onservice-Singlesign-onservice -

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.

Pre-flight not handled for API V2
I am trying to get data for my app using wild apricot.Im using hybrid app. Currently when I am trying to access
events.https://api.wildapricot.org/v2/Accounts/209675/Events
This is my url.
Then I have to send authorization as header in the GET request.
But whenever I send authorization as header in GET request. It comes as a pre-flight and first OPTIONS request is sent.But the server is not handling OPTIONS request. How do I get over this scenario.
Request URL:https://api.wildapricot.org/v2/Accounts/209675/Events
Request Method:OPTIONS
Status Code:405 Method Not Allowed

Cache-Control:no-cache
Connection:close
Content-Length:76
Content-Type:application/json; charset=utf-8
Date:Tue, 02 Aug…1 voteThat 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.

How to access each of the options and whole structure of custom field in event

I am creating a client for wild apricot. So to facilitate event registration the form has to be created in mobile app. To do the same the custom event fields has to be shown in the mobile client. So when I try to access the event Registration or event eventdetails using API.{

API cannot change email settings?
I've been trying for a while now to get the fields in a contact called:
Email delivery disabled
Receiving emails disabledto 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?
1 voteAccording 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.
- Don't see your idea?
