noob question on order api

[akhil]

Hi,

I am new to Etsy API. I was playing around with the sandbox.

I wanted to write an app which would involve me fetching active
listing and order/sales data.
I was able to get the active listings file with ?api_key=...

But
curl -v "http://sandbox.openapi.etsy.com/v2/private/users/__SELF__/
orders?limit=25&offset=0&api_key=...."
gave me
X-Error-Detail: API request missing api_key or valid OAuth parameters

What am I missing?

Thank you
Akhil

Hi Akhil,

To access private data (and use __SELF__ in calls) you must go through the OAuth process with a user and sign your requests.

More info can be found here:

Cheers,
Ian

Hi,

Could you please elaborate how do I do this on the sandbox.
If I signup as a user, then how do I look for my testapp which is not
yet in production.
