Following the advice of a fellow Stack Overflow user (on a previous question which I asked: Lastest Foursquare check-in on map) I have written a PHP-based Foursquare app which uses the Push API to show my latest checkin on a map which I can then embed into my blog.
Obviously I would like to keep this app private, so that it only shows my latest checkins. I figured the best way would be to keep the app in Developer Mode, but it seems that I can't connect to the app myself (i.e. using the same account as I used to create the app) in this mode. This also means that I can't even test the app is working properly, as I can't send test push messages from my own account when I checkin to certain locations. Is there a way around this issue? Alternatively, what other options are available for keeping the app private?
After you create the app in "Developer mode", lookup the Client ID and manually navigate to:
https://foursquare.com/app/<CLIENT_ID>

So this has been such an annoying issue I've been having with facebook.
We :
created a messenger app
verified the web-hook
submitted the app for review
got approval from Facebook
Everything works perfectly if we use the developers and users associated with the app, but for some reason any other user will not work at all!
The only explanation I see why it isn't work is because the app is in development mode, but apparently facebook removed that and replaced it with Access Levels.
I've been looking at documentation and can't find anything! Any directional help that I may have missed would be greatly appreciated!

You are indeed completely right!
The old system, consisting of Development Mode and Live Mode, has been replaced by respectively Standard Access and Advanced Access (cf. this documentation).
Apps in Development Mode can only request Permissions from app users who have a Role on the app or in a Business that has claimed the app. This is the same as Standard Access. Apps in Live Mode can request Permissions from anyone, but only if the Permissions have been approved through App Review. This is the same as Advanced Access. Features, although they cannot be requested from app users but are instead active/inactive, behave the same way.
This snippet was taken from this post.; Side note: They even wrote a paragraph about why they decided to switch and which features/improvements the new update brings - it's on the same site, just below the quote above
Anyhow, due to logistic reasons (supposedly) the update is only being pushed gently into the broad mass:
Access Levels are gradually being applied to all existing Business apps automatically.
You can find the banner on the previously mentioned site:
Summing up: Yes - the modes are actually replaced by their new "level system", though the update might haven't covered your Business app yet (but will so in the near future).
I got this message from API, maybe this covers the reason:
"(#10) Cannot message users who are not admins, developers or testers
of the app until pages_messaging permission is reviewed and the app is
live.", "type":"OAuthException", "code":10, "error_subcode":2018028, "fbtrace_id":"AL....i9"}}
So i'm designing a new application with Nodejs and packaging into an executable then putting a release in github, I want to be able to monitor how many people are using my executable?
I was thinking about creating an api server and my application just make a call to that API service but I thought there might be something already out there any help?
The easiest way is to connect third party services that do that. The most famous one is Google Analytics
You just need to create your developer account and embed a few lines of tracking code. After that you can see full info about your visitors including their location.
I have created a QUICK START PROJECT in visual studio with AZURE SERVER with the help of the link given below.
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/documentation/articles/app-service-mobile-cordova-get-started/
and now I want to configure it with push notifications for which I followed the steps show in the link below
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/documentation/articles/app-service-mobile-cordova-get-started-push/#nodejs
It says to make some changes in the code in the todoitem.js (index.js) from the first link.
I am not able to make those changes can anyone help me with what should be done?
Acutally, the todoitem.js is in your Mobile App backend server in Node.js. If you have created a Mobile Apps server for your own, you can find and edit this script in Easy Tables in your Mobile Apps' manage page in the Azure portal(https://ms.portal.azure.com).
I'm creating a UWP application that will be used exclusively on rugged Win10 tablets by a group of initially 10-20. If things go well it will be expanded to 100 users. These users are employees of our company, but will be remotely located.
Currently, with the test tablets, I am pushing the packages in google drive and manually copying them to the tablets, unzipping and executing the ps file on the tablet. This is way to complicated for even a beta test group of our users.
I'm looking for short-term/long-term recommendations for deployment. Someone mentioned SCCM to me and I've read a little, but that seems like quite a major endeavor to host. I would prefer something like a "private store" concept, but I can't find anything like that.
You can create a private store for your company. The best solution is probably to use Windows Store for Business. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/business-store
Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AD) accounts for your employees are needed if you select this solution.
An alternative way is to use HockeyApp http://hockeyapp.net to deploy your application.
According to your description, HockeyApp should meet your requirement. Via HockeyApp, you can upload and distribute builds for beta or enterprise distribution using our web UI, or our API. HockeyApp also supports build servers like Jenkins or Visual Studio Team Services. Don't forget to upload your dSYM or
mapping.txt to get readable crash reports.
With HockeySDK for UWP integrated, you can also:
Integrate our open-source SDK to:
Collect crash reports
Show update alerts for new beta builds
Add a feedback view directly into your app
For more information, please visit support.hockeyapp.net.
So assuming you've already launched media on the receiver from an iOS/Android/Web app, how can another web app join this activity and control the media? I noticed that the cast API has a 'JOIN_ACTIVITY' in it, but there's nothing that currently uses it. Nor do you know the activity's ID to join it..
This is similar to How to check if a ChromeCast Session is already in progress however, this answer does not help to connect to an existing application
However, using the javascript API, even if you know your app is running I can't find a way to connect to it without re-launching
I managed to get some answers from the Google engineering team:
We allow clients to reconnect to the same session if they are launched
from the same origin (i.e. http://www.somedomain.com:80/). We don't
have the support in the V1 protocol stack to implement this across
multiple browsers. We can hard code something for V1 like mapping
origins to app ids, but it will still be some eng effort to add the
API support as well.
In short, the functionality from Android and iOS is currently missing from the Chrome SDK... hope it comes out soon.
EDIT: To update this, now that the official public SDK has been released, this is now supported!
