  1. API endpoint for allowing users to cancel registrations

    The new feature added today to allow users to cancel their own registrations is a good start, but we need to be able to set it through the API for it to really be useful. Is there a plan to add this in the near future?

  2. Swagger

    Has anyone built an OpenAPI (Swagger) file for connecting to WA APIs? I'm trying to make a sign-in kiosk with Microsoft PowerApps and it connects through a JSON OpenAPI definition.

  3. API with non-administrative permissions

    Original title: Cannot access API from within site pages if not Administrator.

    Hi,

    I have written JavaScript/HTML in a WildApricot site page to display events as a compact list in a table.

    If I login to an administrator account it all works fine, if I login to a non administrator account I get error 403 returned from a get Events API call.....

    "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 (Current token does not provide access to scope 'events_view'.)"

    Code snippet is:
    <script>

    generateTable();

    function generateTable()
    {
    var EventsList = getDataFromApi("https://xxxxx.wildapricot.org/sys/api/v2/accounts/xxxxxx/Events?$sort=StartDate asc&$filter=Tags in [training,cruising,racing,racing_crew] AND…

  4. 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).

    http://iarpreiki.org/resources/js/waPublicApi.js

    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

  5. Event Registration is not enabled after creating Event via API

    Hi,

    I have creates a Google script to upload event from a Google spreadsheet.

    I create the event with "RegistrationEnabled": false
    Create the RegistrationTypes for the event.
    Then I enable registrations for any membership level....
    {
    "Id": EventId,
    "RegistrationEnabled": true,
    "Details": {
    "AccessControl": {
    "AccessLevel": "Restricted",
    "AvailableForAnyLevel": true,

    }
    }

    When I go to the admin pages of the website the event is not enabled, access is shown as for Admin users only, however the fields in the form are correct.
    I have to press "Save" on the form and then the event registrations are enabled.
    I have tried all…

  6. Demo Joomla Authentication Module

    Hi,
    I've got a Joomla authentication module working with WildApricot which I'm making available for anyone to use.

    I'm not a PHP coder or joomla expert, so take this with a grain of salt and understand it will need customisation for your site. I've loaded the source on github. I'd recommend it only experienced Joomla/PHP users and you will need to alter it.

    Hopefully someone with more experience can take this code and make it more generic so others may benefit.

    https://github.com/psike73/joomla_waauth

    Allows authentication against WildApricot user/password.
    Add or remove to defined Joomla groups (ie. member and non-members group)

  7. API - Implement CORS for Cross-Domain API requests

    Currently the API does not support cross-domain requests which makes it impossible to call the API from within WA or any other site. The whole Idea of API's and web services is to be able to fetch data from other sites to use in you JavaScript code.

    I can only get access to the API if I disable cross-domain security in IE. Other browsers are more difficult.

    CORS is a web standard that was developed to handle cross-domain requests. It should be fairly simple to adjust your web server to handle CORS and pre-flighting

  8. API V2 authorization "invalid_client" error

    Hi, I'm trying to do v2 authorization (from Java), and getting an invalid client error.

    My setup reads (edited for brevity):

    HttpPost post = new HttpPost(AUTH_URL+"/auth/token");

    post.addHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");

    post.addHeader("Authentication","Basic "+Base64.encodeBase64String("APIKEY:"+API_KEY));

    List <NameValuePair> nvps = new ArrayList <NameValuePair>();

    nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("granttype", "clientcredentials"));

    nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("scope", "account"));

    post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nvps));This seems a perfect mirror of the php and c# samples, but in return, I'm getting the remarkably useful:{"error":"invalidclient","errordescription":null,"error_uri":null} Any ideas?Thanks,GeePawHill

  10. Authenticating a Member or Contact (with iOS app)

    Hi - I am writing a custom iOS app using the WA API and a requirement is that members sign into the mobile app with the same credentials that they use to access the WA site via a browser (i.e. email, password)

    The "contacts" API returns the user's email but not the password (which would clearly be a security issue). So the iOS app cannot verify the members credentials itself.

    Is there an API that the iOS app can call to verify the members password? If not, do you have any other suggestions on how this type of member sign…

  11. Is it correct that users cannot get their membership data via API?

    I'm working with a tool called Cognito Forms that allow some fairly complex form functionality. One great feature is the ability to pass values to a form embedded on a Wild Apricot page.

    We are currently working on a feature where a member navigates to a member-only page for expense reimbursement. The page loads an embedded form and pre-fills most of the information.

    Right now, I am using the API to use the contacts/me call to load name and email, but I need the contact/{contact-ID} to get the address and phone.

    After getting the script completed and pre-populating the form…

  12. Access registrants who are on the waitlist via API

    We need to be able to export the list of registrants who are on the waitlist. If a course (event) is full, we want to be able to pre-register waitlisted people the next time that we offer the course.
    Currently we have to copy-and-paste from the full event to the next event, a tedious and error-prone activity.

  13. Using API on MS Access 2016

    I extended the excel sample API V2 app to develop an attendance system for our club. For a number of reasons, we're working to move off of Excel and onto Access. The sample code from WA runs smoothly on Excel, but not on Access. The sample includes the following (in function GetOAuthToken)

    Dim httpClient as IXMLHTTPRequest
    Set httpClient = CreateObject("Msxml12.XMLHTTP.3.0")
    httpClient.Open "POST", url, False

    (where url = "https://oauth.wildapricot.org/auth/token")

    The client.open returns 'unauthorized'. I cannot find any documentation on the open method of the httpclient object. And I have no idea what extra authorization I need when working in…

  15. Event registration types created via API cannot be edited in the web interface

    It is no longer possible to edit an event registration type in the web UI if it was created via an API call. Attempting to load these registration types causes Uncaught Error: Invalid cancellationBehavior to be thrown in the console and the page spins forever without loading.

    Unfortunately due to the asinine piecemeal implementation of the API it is only possible to set this field through the web interface. See the issue? Yet another reason why you should use your own dang API; you could catch these issues before they break your customers' workflow and piss them off.

  17. 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.

    I've got a Google Script constructed to upload an image from Google Drive to my trial WA site and I can't get it to work! 400 response code. Anybody up for taking a look and pointing out what I am doing wrong? Thanks so much!

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
