I am trying to extract/sync data through Pardot API v4 into a local DB. Most APIs were fine, just used the query method with created_after search criteria. But the Visit API does not seem to support neither a generic query of all visit data, nor a created_after search criteria to retrieve new items.
As far as I can see I can only query Visits in the context of a Visitor or a Prospect.
Any ideas why, and how could I implement synchronisation? (sorry, no access to Pardot DB...)
I have been using pypardot4 python wrapper for convenience but would be happy to use the API natively if it makes any difference.
I managed to get a response from Pardot support, and they have confirmed that such response filtering is not available on the Visits API. I asked for a feature request, but hardly any chance to get enough up-votes to be considered :(

I'm relatively new to webdevelopment and have been using ArangoDB for most of that limited experience. I have a basic understanding of Node.js and creating express based CRUD apps with ArangoDB as the database.
I'm getting to a point though where I'd like to have the ability to query the database from inside the client. Say I would like to have a datalist-type element where the user types words into a searchbar. I'd like the ability to query the database from there rather than having to query the database for all of its files prior to creating the datalist. I have not found a single mention though of using database queries from the client side. I can't imagine that this is not possible. Surely when I search wikipedia through the search bar and it provides me with options I didn't just receive the entire wikipedia documents list upon loading the page? Please steer me in the right direction, I don't know how to tackle this problem.
Have a look at how to build dynamic forms, this will allow you to perform AJAX style calls from the browser window to a back end REST API service. This will allow your back end web service to gather the data for the response (from ArangoDB if required), and respond with that data, most likely in a JSON format.
Your UI can then take that response and dynamically update components in your DOM so that the user can see the data injected into the page without a page reload action taking place.
https://www.pluralsight.com/search?q=ajax is a great place to start.
Alternatively you can have a look at free content like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNKD0kfel6o
The response of Maps Search Reverse API gives results in the country's local language, how can I force it to respond in English only? Google's API does not have this issue.
Here is the API's documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/maps/search/getsearchaddressreverse#uri-parameters
This isn't yet documented as work on localizing data globally is still being done, but you can try this out by adding "&language=" and passing in a language IDs: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-maps/supported-languages
Our tool is submitting blog entries to the idation blog for a configured community by using the Connections API.
Therefore, I use the following workflow, given only a community ID:
1) query /blogs/api/blogs?commUuid=<ID_HERE>&blogType=ideationblog
2) retrieve the link to the communities ideation blog from the xml result of aboves query. the xPath for this is "/app:service/app:workspace/app:collection[a:category[#term='entries']][1]/#href"
3) post the created blog entry payload to this url.
This all worked fine in our environment. However, when I deployed this at a customer, it did not work anymore. The url from the first step returns an empty xml document, and the following steps thus cannot be executed. I tried to query different urls on the customers server like /blogs/{homepageHandle}/api/blogs?commUuid=&blogType=ideationblog which work fine, however the query to the api service document above is the only one which contains the collection element with the link I need.
Is there any other API call I can do, to get this url? Do you know of any reason, why the call is working just fine in our environment, but fails at the customer? Might this be an access rights problem?
I am aware, that I could probably just create a url like "blogs//api/entries" and post to it, however I would prefer the above way, since I only have the communityUuid configured, and also because it is exactly the way that the API Documentation describes:
http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/appdevwiki.nsf/xpDocViewer.xsp?lookupName=IBM+Connections+4.5+API+Documentation#action=openDocument&res_title=Creating_blog_posts_ic45&content=pdcontent
ServiceDoc -> Collection -> href
UPDATE:
This might be a problem with the SBT really. My assumption, that an empty xml document was returned was wrong, it is rather that calls via the SBT Endpoint classes are returning null.
Endpoint endpoint = EndpointFactory.getEndpoint("connections");
Object result = endpoint.xhrGet("/blogs/api"); // also tried for /blogs/<homepage>/api
When I again tried those URLs in the Browser, I got the complete results. Problem with all this is, that I can neither reproduce this in our own environment nor am I able to debug this at the customer. I tried to catch possible exceptions from this, but none are thrown. It's just that the result is null.
To clarify: The same requests work perfectly fine in our own (Connections 4.0) environment, and also from the browser at the customer. I am of course using the same user to authenticate as well in the browser as in the API calls.
endpoint.isAuthenticationValid();
also returns true, so seemingly no problem there...
I have long ago given up trying to follow the IBM documented REST API instructions (not least of all because it always ends in a myriard of REST requests just to get to the URL I need to send my request to).
I tried both your URLs (/blogs/api/blogs?commUuid=... and /blogs/<homepage>/api/blogs...) against all our Connections 4.5 systems, but although I do get an xml document back it doesn't contain a reference to the ideationblog anywhere (and yes, I made sure to quest against a Community that does contain an ideation blog).
This is a dirty workaround, which you mentioned you did not want to do, but which I do use because the documented way doesn't work:
To post blog entries, you need to POST against
/blogs/<bloghandle>/api/entries
To find out the handle (<snx:handle>) of the ideation blog in your community, you can do the following:
1.) Get the widgets-feed for the community: /communities/service/atom/community/widgets?communityUuid=...
2.) Navigate to the entry of the Ideation Blog widget: <snx:widgetDefId>IdeationBlog</snx:widgetDefId>.
Unless someone in your customer system has messed with the widgets-config.xml, the widgetDefId will be IdeationBlog.
3.) Take the <snx:widgetInstanceId> text of the Ideation Blog entry.
That is the handle of your ideation blog. (Yes, community ideation blogs are created with the widgetInstanceId of the Ideation Blog widget as handle. Normal blogs are created with some mashup of their title as handle). You can now construct the URL to post the entries to.
The GitHub API documentation says that the url
https://api.github.com/users
will give all users in the order they signed up, but I only seem to get the first 135.
Any ideas how to get the real full list?
Please use since parameter in your GET request.
https://api.github.com/users?since=XXX
Probably it's done this way to limit the resources needed to handle such request. Without such limit it's just asking for DoS attack.
If you check the response headers for that request Github provides pagination links under the header Links
Link: <https://api.github.com/users?since=135>; rel="next", <https://api.github.com/users{?since}>; rel="first"
I believe since their api v3 Github has been moving towards a hypermedia api.
Github Hypermedia API
EDIT
This is beyond the scope of this question but its related. To learn more about hypermedia API and REST. Take a look at these slides by Steve Klabnik

Both of the existing answers are 100% correct, but I would advise you to use a wrapper for whatever language you happen to be doing this in. There are plenty of them and there is an official one for ruby (Octokit). Here is a list of all of them.
You can filter on type:user like this:
https://api.github.com/search/users?q=type:user

I have been using Foursquare Explore API endpoint since I have started developing an application. But recently it seems to be broken. It keeps on giving me following response
warning: {
text: "There aren't a lot of results near you. Try something more general, reset your filters, or expand the search area."
}
I am trying to get the response from the following HTTP URL -
https://api.foursquare.com/v2/venues/explore?ll=40.7,-74&v=20121124
(adding my credentials to the above URL)
the issue has been noticed couple days ago on this page
Foursquare venues/explore returning empty data set
I'd really like foursquare to keep us informed, because we can't rely on their API if no information about what's going on is provided :(
This bug has been fixed, all queries should be working now. Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention.
