API authorisation not working for some reason

Thanks for the response Scott but I dont understand why this should suddenly have changed.

I would have thought that the point of providing the callback url in the request is so that you have control of this from the application - I have different callback points depending on the context.

This has always worked up to a couple of days ago.

Do you know anything about this Mike Stangel

Thanks Scott

So what happens if I call the API from 2 different hosts - a development host and a production
host?

Was there any notification of this change to behaviour - if so I didnt see it?

OK, thanks Private User

But this makes everything a lot more complicated and it would have been nice to have been told in advance!

OK, this has worked for my Production environment for app #536.

I created a new AppID #663 for my Dev environment as a kind of copy of the above but cant get it to work for my dev environment.

It appears that I dont know how to define the domains and callback URL

I have tried both
http://127.0.0.1
http://localhost

1) http://127.0.0.1

https://www.geni.com/platform/oauth/authorize?client_id=gYFEPoOpJem...

Gets the response:
Access Denied
Error 15

What happened?
This request was blocked by the security rules
Your IP: 159.196.12.7
Proxy IP: 107.154.128.111 (ID 10435-100)
Incident ID: 435002030083170219-446073873166971589

2) http://localhost

https://www.geni.com/platform/oauth/authorize?client_id=gYFEPoOpJem...

gets the response
http://127.0.0.1:43347/profile_tree_geni_auth_response?error=invali...

Also, assuming I will eventually get this to work could you please approve this application #663 so that I can make use of the higher rate limit Private User

Thanks for approving the app Private User

But I still dont understand why my API requests from my dev environment are rejected

When I do

<<<
https://www.geni.com/platform/oauth/authorize?client_id=iHX8y050CGo...
>>>

I get a response with a code

I then successfully get an access token with the code returned as:

<<<
https://www.geni.com/platform/oauth/request_token?client_id=iHX8y05...;
>

All good so far. But when I then do:

<<<
https://www.geni.com/api/profile-34720911920/immediate-family?acces...;
>>>

I get the response

http_version: '1.1'
code: '401'
message: Unauthorized
...
body: '{"message":"You must be logged in or have an access token in order to call
this API"}'
>>>

But if I use the same URL from the browser bar I get a valid response.

So the access_token is being rejected when I call the endpoint via the API progrmatically but not from the browsrer?

This is very frustrating that I cant use the API from my localhost now!

Thanks in advance

Craig

OK, thanks Private User.

I must be missing something then. I had to rejig the code to cater for the different key/secret pairs so will recheck.

Thanks for your help.

Finally sorted it, my end ultimately. Thanks for your help Private User

FYI I needed to set the domain in the Geni application configuration to http://127.0.0.1

http://localhost didnt seem to work as the requests end up with the former.

Cheers

Private User

My app has separate Dev and Test environments and so I discovered that I need a separate corresponding Geni app for each as the hostnames appear differently.

Could you please therefore approve App #664 also. Thanks.

Thanks Private User
