Phillip Pearson replied to Erica's discussion Create new user from API/other site
"No offence taken - I can certainly see it being a useful feature.  All the best for your site in its new home!"

Phillip Pearson replied to Franco Mercalli's discussion What is ning.xauth.client.exceptions.ClientException?
"Hmm.  Looking at the logs from December, we had a ton of these errors on Dec 2-3, and a few more from Dec 4-6.  I remember hearing mention of an internal outage of the authentication server a while back; that's probably the culprit…"

Phillip Pearson replied to Erica's discussion Create new user from API/other site
"Yeah, we don't have any automated way to sign people up.  We may do this in future, but I can't say whether it will be generally accessible or not.  Member import is definitely a popular feature request, but it's more…"

Phillip Pearson replied to Franco Mercalli's discussion What is ning.xauth.client.exceptions.ClientException?
"That's an internal error on our side (our API code talking to our OAuth code).  If you're still seeing this error, please reply here with an updated error message.  I've checked in our logs and don't see any of these in…"

Phillip Pearson replied to Pavlo Taranov's discussion Customize photo app with custom JS
"There is no Ning API that will return EXIF data.  You'll have to write code to find the image file, download it to your own server, extract the EXIF data, and provide it in a format that something running on your Ning network will be able…"

Phillip Pearson replied to Alex's discussion How do I create a page from a JSON pull?
"This is actually unrelated to the Ning API, but you might be able to use the Custom Javascript feature.  We only allow unrestricted Javascript in certain places in the system -- I'm not sure what the sanitization rules are for Pages."
Feb 13, 2013
Phillip Pearson replied to Wil Huddleston's discussion Retrieving Questions via API
"If you have access to the API, I assume you have a username and password that you're using to authenticate to the site?  Or do you only have an oauth token and secret?  If you have a username and password, you can log in to the site,…"

Phillip Pearson replied to Belal's discussion Create a Photo Competition App accessible to members on my network.
"The error there is in NingObject.php, not NingApi.php.  Have you copied the 'objects' directory up to the web server?  It looks like you have NingApi.php and NingObject.php but not objects/NingActivityItem.php."

Phillip Pearson replied to Belal's discussion Create a Photo Competition App accessible to members on my network.
"Hi Belal, 1. To access the consumer key and secret, browse to the /main/extend/keys page on your Pro network.  More details here: http://build.ning.com/profiles/blogs/getting-started 2. Yes, you'll need to have your own server…"

Phillip Pearson replied to liyamahendra4's discussion How to update a photo using PHP?
"Belal - the code is posted on Mahendra's own server.  It requires PHP, so won't work if you just post it on a Ning page. Mahendra - as Devin suggested, you should check that you are passing in the photoIdToUpdate parameter…"

Phillip Pearson replied to Pawan Mittal's discussion Can I access Add ons activity through ning api
"Hi, Unfortunately, the API currently doesn't support Groups and Events, so their activity won't show up at Activity/recent :( (Note that your Projects widget is actually Groups, just with "Group" changed to "Project"…"

Phillip Pearson replied to Pawan Mittal's discussion getting 401 while making curl call to ning
"Clarification: you should replace [YOUR_NETWORK] with the *subdomain* of your network, not the network name.  So if your network is asdfasdfasdf.ning.com, you should be hitting this URL:…"

Phillip Pearson replied to Alex Seymour's discussion API Stopped Working
"Awesome, glad to hear it's all working!"
May 7, 2012
Phillip Pearson replied to Alex Seymour's discussion API Stopped Working
"Ahh... yes, that sounds like the problem.  Your server's probably in a different timezone, but if it thinks it's xx:30 when it's actually xx:39, that's enough for the timestamp to be incorrect.  300 seconds is 5…"

Phillip Pearson replied to Alex Seymour's discussion API Stopped Working
"Are you sure it's hanging, or is it throwing an exception and killing the request at that point? Try this: require_once('ning-api-php/NingApi.php'); echo "Fetch Recent Photos..";// Get the most recent phototry { …"
May 5, 2012
Phillip Pearson replied to Bobby Parker's discussion Problem with Ning API PHP library
"Can you post more of the code you're using?  I just did this, and it successfully deleted the photo.  What network are you running this on? require 'src/NingApi.php'; $api = new NingApi($subdomain, $consumerKey,…"
