I am able to obtain authorization_code from OAuthLogin, but cannot get access token from oauth.wildapricot.org with it.

The failure occurs due to CORS although I believe I am making the request from the same origin (SSOfail_CORS.png).

If I disable CORS, the failure behaves differently. A pop-up is shown asking for username+password (SSOfail_noCORS.png). This pop-up keeps repeating after entering valid credentials, and must eventually be canceled to continue.

Here is the code that makes access token request:

$.post(
"https://oauth.wildapricot.org/auth/token",
{
authorization_code: code,
client_id: "xxxxxxx",
client_secret: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
redirect_uri: "https://rbc.wildapricot.org/Schedule",
scope: "auto"
},
function(data, status){
alert("Data " + JSON.stringify(data) + "\nStatus: " + status);
}
);

Thanks for any help on this!

I'm trying to understand if Wild Apricot's SSO implementation will work out of the box with Discourse's oAuth SSO implementation, or if I need to develop a plugin for Discourse to authenticate with WA.

Discourse, a discussion platform, provides a built-in oAuth SSO client. There are screenshots of the configuration here - https://meta.discourse.org/t/official-single-sign-on-for-discourse/13045

On Discourse, for the SSO URL, I have put in what I believe is the correct URL for the authorized application that I have made in our WA account:

https://abea.bike/sys/login/OAuthLogin?client_id=<WA CLIENT ID>&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Fdiscourse.cyclingsavvy.bike%2F&scope=contacts_me&response_type=authorization_code&claimed_account_id=<WA ACCOUNT ID>

Where <WA CLIENT ID> is configured on the Wild Apricot admin site for oAuth applications, and where <WA ACCOUNT ID> is found in the billing/account dropdown.

Then, for SSO Secret, I put the Client secret that is found under Client ID in Wild Apricot.

When this is enabled, I am redirected to the correct login page on our WA site, but when I authenticate it goes to Discourse and my browser says there's a redirect loop. I assume this means that the correct information is not getting back to Discourse.

Hi,
using example PHP code and worked out that if we authenticate to the API as a user then we can retrieve the user's ID with the contacts/me call, but it returns limited data about the user. It does not return membership field values. Is there a way, when logged in as a user, to retrieve the users record including datafields?

Just for context, I'm writing a joomla auth plugin. I want to first authenticate the user (hence using the user credentials) and once authenticated I would like to get some of the data to sync into the Joomla account (such as street address, phone number).

If the field values can't be accessed via api when authenticated in the user context do I need to perform the authentication as the user (to confirm their login/password), then re-authenticate using the application's API key to retrieve the Contacts URL to access their data?

Thanks,
Russ.

private const string AllScopes = "general_info contacts finances events event_registrations account membership_levels settings";

var authData = string.Format("grant_type={0}&scope={1}", "client_credentials",AllScopes);

var response = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(Common.OAuthServiceUrl)
.SetBasicAuth("APIKEY", "........YOUR API KEY HERE......")
.SetData(authData)
.GetResponse();

Extension Methods:

public static WebRequest SetData(this WebRequest request, string data, string contentType = MimeFormUrlEncoded, string method = "POST")
{
request.Method = method;
request.ContentType = contentType;
byte[] sentData = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(data);

request.ContentLength = sentData.Length;
Stream sendStream = request.GetRequestStream();
sendStream.Write(sentData, 0, sentData.Length);
sendStream.Close();

return request;
}

public static WebRequest SetBasicAuth(this WebRequest request, string userName, string password)
{
var credentials = string.Format("{0}:{1}", userName, password);
var encoded = System.Convert.ToBase64String(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(credentials));
request.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic " + encoded);
return request;
}

Thank you to WildApricot for posting the sample code for an api connection to update a google spreadsheet. https://help.wildapricot.com/display/DOC/Sample+API+V2+applications

I'm now using google scripts to produce (update) 13 regional spreadsheets of members each that has been shared with a regional coordinator so that I don't have to do this manually.

Would love to hear how other organizations are using Google apps and integrating the wa api.

Also would love to collaborate on building some additional Google Code scripts. Example, allowing each regional coordinator to email (mail merge) via gmail the members in their regional spreadsheet.

I am also interested in collaborating on implementing media queries to enhance the responsiveness of the new themes.

Thanks,

All was going very well with the API V2 until I wanted to set up Bundles with the membership. I can create contacts and assign a membership level. But when I try to assign a create a Bundle Administrator or Bundle Member, nothing seems to take. The API says only a Bundle ID and NOT an email address like the Import can use. To automate this process, I don't/can't use the Import process.

Has anyone been successful in using the API to create a Bundle? (Administrator and/or Member)

Any help is greatly appreciated. Our trial is almost over and this is the last thing that would put us over the edge to purchase. Without it, I will have a hard time justifying the work to change providers.

Thanks.

As part of our first operational use of the API, I need to update two fields dynamically. For trials, I am using php cUrl, modeled on your sample application. I have no problems with GET, but PUT leaves me baffled.

Each time I run the script, the target fields are not changed - but the membership of the target contact goes from "active" to "membership not allocated".

Clearly my code is doing this: but how/why? Can anyone give me a clue as to what is happening?

Also, my debugging script shows a result JSON containing all the target contact's data. Is this as it should be? And can it be prevented (unnecessary data traffic, etc.)?

My cUrl code is (sorry about the bad formatting below):

$accountUrl = "https://api.wildapricot.org/v2/accounts/[account]/Contacts/";
$queryParams = array(
'Id' => $contact,
'Field values' => array(
0 => array(
'FieldName' => "fieldname1",
'Value' => 'XXXXX'
),
1 => array(
'FieldName' => "fieldname2",
'Value' => 'XXXXXX'
)
)
);
$url = $accountUrl.$contact;
$verb = "PUT";

$ch = curl_init();
$headers = array(
'Authorization: Bearer ' . $token,
'Content-Type: application/json'
);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://api.wildapricot.org/v2/accounts/[account]/Contacts/[contact]');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, $verb);
if ($queryParams) {
$jsonData = json_encode($queryParams);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $jsonData);
}

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$jsonResult = curl_exec($ch);
if ( !$jsonResult ) {
echo curl_errno($ch) . ': ' . curl_error($ch);
}
curl_close($ch);

Wanting to get some feedback if I am doing this correctly or there is a better way!

Goal: I have 13 SavedSearches and I want to create 13 separate Google SS (using Google Script) with the details of members (some custom fields I have created as well) returned by each SavedSearch.

Step 1: I use the api SavedSearch request to return the contactIds.

Step 2: Iterate through the returned list and make an api call to contacts using the contactId.

Here is the problem I am encountering. The limit on individual contact calls is 60 / minute. All my searches have more than 60 records. So the SS population stops at 60. :( (http://help.wildapricot.com/display/DOC/API+Version+2#APIVersion2-APIrequestlimits)

Thoughts?

Thanks!

I am evaluating Wild Apricot for a small non-profit. We are all volunteers who will be administering it, so I am investigating using the API to automate our workflow due to the fact that WA does not create a Contact for Guest registrations.

My question is related to the Create Contact or Update Contact operations. I can create a contact with the FirstName, LastName and Email fields and I can update those fields. However, I have been unsuccessful adding or creating additional fields, even the Phone built in field.

Can anyone help by sending me an example of the syntax for the submission? I started with the Google Sheets example on the WA website. It has been easy to use when I understand the correct syntax! That's what I need here.

This is a showstopper to us moving to Wild Apricot if we cannot automate this. It looks like it should be easy to do if I get the correct syntax.

BTW, for the most part, thew documentation is very good. I guess because the API is not supported is why there are limited examples. As read elsewhere in this forum, I agree that it may be shortsighted for WS to not support the API. It does help embed customers to their platform...

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
