How to export offer file from Bol Retailer API using Python

I have been trying to export offer file using Python for Bol Retailer API
According to the official docs on request an offer file export
I have include all the headers and formats but it throws a 400 Bad Request
400
Bad Request
b'{\n "type" : "https://api.bol.com/problems",\n "title" : "Bad Request",\n "status" : 400,\n "detail" : "The supplied content-type media type is not supported.",\n "host" : "Instance-111",\n "instance" : "https://api.bol.com/retailer/offers/export"\n}'
Here is a minimal example from my code
import base64
import requests
import json
import time
class BolService:
def __init__(self, _id, secret):
self.host = "https://api.bol.com"
self.__header = {
"Accept": "application/vnd.retailer.v7+json",
"Content-Type": "N/A",
"Authorization": "Bearer " + self.__get_token(_id, secret)
}
def __get_token(self, _id, secret) -> str:
creds = (_id + ":" + secret).encode('ascii') #creds : ascii bytes
creds_b64_b = base64.b64encode(creds) #creds : base64 bytes
creds_b64 = creds_b64_b.decode('ascii') #creds : base64 string
header = {
"Authorization":"Basic " + creds_b64
}
link = "https://login.bol.com/token?grant_type=client_credentials"
response = requests.post(link, headers=header)
response_data = json.loads(response.content.decode())
return response_data['access_token']
def get_offer_file(self):
path = f"/retailer/offers/export"
new_header = self.__header.copy()
new_header["format"] = "CSV"
response = requests.post(self.host + path, headers=new_header)
return response
Note: I have also tried changing the "Content-Type" in self.__header to "application/vnd.retailer.v7+json", I have also changed the same to add csv using "application/vnd.retailer.v7+json+csv" or "application/vnd.retailer.v7+csv". I have also tried adding self.__header['Content-Type'] = 'text/csv' but nothing seems to work it keeps on throwing the same Bad Request. I have also tried using the v6 of the API instead of v7 but same issue.
I know this is something that should be dealt with the customer service of Bol but they their service is too pathetic to even give a simple reply. Also as of August 2022 their site which details API issues is down. Maybe if someone with experience can help here.
I don't think I am missing anything here. Please let me know.

So I was able to sucessfully make the POST request.
1st what I did was change the "Content-Type" in self.__header to "application/vnd.retailer.v7+json"
so the header now looks like this
self.__header = {
"Accept": "application/vnd.retailer.v7+json",
"Content-Type": "application/vnd.retailer.v7+json",
"Authorization": "Bearer " + self.__get_token(_id, secret)
}
Since we require the content type in JSON format so we have to include a JSON body by dumping our dictionary content using json.dumps
So the get_offer_file method now looks like with {"format":"CSV"} as the body
def get_offer_file(self):
path = f"/retailer/offers/export"
response = requests.post(self.host + path, headers=self.__header, data=json.dumps({"format":"CSV"}))
return response
Here is the full code:
import base64
import requests
import json
class BolService:
def __init__(self, _id, secret):
self.host = "https://api.bol.com"
self.__header = {
"Accept": "application/vnd.retailer.v7+json",
"Content-Type": "application/vnd.retailer.v7+json",
"Authorization": "Bearer " + self.__get_token(_id, secret)
}
def __get_token(self, _id, secret) -> str:
creds = (_id + ":" + secret).encode('ascii') #creds : ascii bytes
creds_b64_b = base64.b64encode(creds) #creds : base64 bytes
creds_b64 = creds_b64_b.decode('ascii') #creds : base64 string
header = {
"Authorization":"Basic " + creds_b64
}
link = "https://login.bol.com/token?grant_type=client_credentials"
response = requests.post(link, headers=header)
response_data = json.loads(response.content.decode())
return response_data['access_token']
def get_offer_file(self):
path = f"/retailer/offers/export"
response = requests.post(self.host + path, headers=self.__header, data=json.dumps({"format":"CSV"}))
return response

Error 308 Permanent Redirect in X++/C# code

I need to send an API request to SMS API.
My Python code is working but my X++/C# code is not working.
I tried with Postman, it is working as well.
Here's my Python code:
import requests
headers = {"Accept":"application/json"}
data = {"AppSid":"#############YxLtXtaN###",
"SenderID":"####23423#####",
"Body":"This is a test message.",
"Recipient":"###45645######",
"responseType":"JSON",
"CorrelationID":"",
"baseEncode":"true",
"statusCallback":"sent",
"async":"false"}
r = requests.post('http://myapi/rest/SMS/messages', auth=('user#domain.com', 'password'), headers=headers,
data=data)
Here's my X++/C# code:
class Class1
{
public static void main(Args _args)
{
str destinationUrl = 'myapi', requestXml, responseXml;
System.Net.HttpWebRequest request;
System.Net.HttpWebResponse response;
CLRObject clrObj;
System.Byte[] bytes;
System.Text.Encoding utf8;
System.IO.Stream requestStream, responseStream;
System.IO.StreamReader streamReader;
System.Exception ex;
System.Net.WebHeaderCollection httpHeader;
str byteStr;
System.Byte[] byteArray;
System.IO.Stream stream;
System.IO.Stream dataStream;
byteStr = strfmt('%1:%2', "user#domain.com", "password");
requestXml = " {\"AppSid\":\"###########\", \"SenderID\":\"########-AD\", \"Body\":\"This is a test message from ## from X++ Coding Language..\", \"Recipient\":\"######\", \"responseType\":\"JSON\", \"CorrelationID\":\"\", \"baseEncode\":\"true\", \"statusCallback\":\"sent\", \"async\":\"false\"}";
try
{
new InteropPermission(InteropKind::ClrInterop).assert();
httpHeader = new System.Net.WebHeaderCollection();
clrObj = System.Net.WebRequest::Create(destinationUrl);
request = clrObj;
utf8 = System.Text.Encoding::get_UTF8();
bytes = utf8.GetBytes(requestXml);
request.set_KeepAlive(true);
request.set_ContentType("application/xml");
request.AllowAutoRedirect=true;
utf8 = System.Text.Encoding::get_UTF8();
byteArray = utf8.GetBytes(byteStr);
byteStr = System.Convert::ToBase64String(byteArray);
httpHeader.Add("Authorization", 'Basic ' + byteStr);
request.set_ContentType("text/xml; encoding='utf-8'");
request.set_ContentLength(bytes.get_Length());
request.set_Method("POST");
request.set_Headers(httpHeader);
requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.get_Length());
response = request.GetResponse();
responseStream = response.GetResponseStream();
streamReader = new System.IO.StreamReader(responseStream);
responseXml = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
info(responseXml);
}
catch (Exception::CLRError)
{
//bp deviation documented
ex = CLRInterop::getLastException().GetBaseException();
error(ex.get_Message());
}
requestStream.Close();
streamReader.Close();
responseStream.Close();
response.Close();
}
}
I'm getting this error:
error code : The remote server returned an error: (308) Permanent
Redirect.

I made two changes.
removed the Authorization by commenting it out
//httpHeader.Add("Authorization", 'Basic ' + byteStr);
Made it HTTPS instead of HTTP. I could see the Location: HTTPS in the exception Response object in Visual Studio.
These 2 things resolved the issue for me.

I don't know about x++, but you could try explicitly allowing redirect on your webRequest object.
webRequest = System.Net.WebRequest::Create('http://myapi/rest/SMS/messages') as System.Net.HttpWebRequest;
webRequest.AllowAutoRedirect = true;
webRequest.MaximumAutomaticRedirections = 1; //Set value according to your requirements

Facebook Graph API | Request [400] Errorr

I create a bot to monitor the comment if there is any new comment and if so it will automatically private_replies them But instead i got a Request [400] Error instead.
def monitor_comment():
print("Bot is monitoring comments")
time.sleep(5)
comment_data = graph.get_connections(COMBINED_POST_ID_TO_MONITOR,"comments",order='reverse_chronological')
commends = []
for comment in comment_data['data'][:10]:
commends.append (comment)
data = commends[0]['id']
data_converted = str(data)
#time.sleep(5)
print(data)
return data_converted
def private_reply(comment_ids):
url = "https://graph.facebook.com/v12.0/me/messages?"
access = {"access_token":Page_Token}
params = {
"recipient": {
"comment_id": comment_ids
},
"message": {
"text":"Testing Private_Replies"
}
request = requests.post(url=url, files=access, json=params)
print(request)
This is the logs
{"error":{"message":"An active access token must be used to query information about the current user.","type":"OAuthException","code":2500,"fbtrace_id":"AMCiqy1Aw8CyODPlUBE1b98"}}

API GET request fails with custom headers

I have this API GET request that works fine with the full address:
# Transactions
transaction_url = "https://api.whale-alert.io/v1/transaction/ethereum/0015286d8642f0e0553b7fefa1c168787ae71173cbf82ec2f2a1b2e0ffee72b2"
transaction_querystring = {
"api_key":"APIKEY"
}
transaction_response = requests.request("GET", transaction_url, params=transaction_querystring)
print(transaction_response)
print(transaction_response.text)
but, when I try to pass the variables as headers:
# Transactions
transaction_url = "https://api.whale-alert.io/v1/transaction"
transaction_querystring = {
"api_key":"APIKEY"
}
transaction_headers = {
'blockchain': "ethereum",
'hash': "0015286d8642f0e0553b7fefa1c168787ae71173cbf82ec2f2a1b2e0ffee72b2"
}
transaction_response = requests.request("GET", transaction_url, headers=transaction_headers, data=transaction_querystring, )
print(transaction_response)
print(transaction_response.text)
It won't work:
<Response [404]
Not Found

made it work with {0}".format(startime_unix)

New Twitch API getting json data Python 3

I am trying to get a python script to say whether a twitch channel is live but haven't been able to do it, any and all help would be appreciated.
here are the docs I've been able to find
https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/guide
This is what I have atm but I keep on getting "'set' object has no attribute 'items'". This is modified code from "Is There Any Way To Check if a Twitch Stream Is Live Using Python?" however it is now outdated because of the new API.
import requests
def checkUser():
API_HEADERS = {
'Client-ID : [client id here from dev portal]',
'Accept : application/vnd.twitchtv.v5+json',
}
url = "https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams/[streamer here]"
req = requests.Session().get(url, headers=API_HEADERS)
jsondata = req.json()
print(jsondata)
checkUser()

The answer to your problem of "'set' object has no attribute 'items'" is just a simple typo. It should be
API_HEADERS = {
'Client-ID' : '[client id here from dev portal]',
'Accept' : 'application/vnd.twitchtv.v5+json'
}
Notice how the Colon's aren't part of the text now
And to answer your overarching question of how to tell if a channel is online you can look at this sample code I made.
import requests
URL = 'https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams?user_login=[Channel_Name_Here]'
authURL = 'https://id.twitch.tv/oauth2/token'
Client_ID = [Your_client_ID]
Secret = [Your Client_Secret]
AutParams = {'client_id': Client_ID,
'client_secret': Secret,
'grant_type': 'client_credentials'
}
def Check():
AutCall = requests.post(url=authURL, params=AutParams)
access_token = AutCall.json()['access_token']
head = {
'Client-ID' : Client_ID,
'Authorization' : "Bearer " + access_token
}
r = requests.get(URL, headers = head).json()['data']
if r:
r = r[0]
if r['type'] == 'live':
return True
else:
return False
else:
return False
print(Check())
