Public User Id endpoint error

We had been using the user id endpoint detailed in:
https://github.com/Medisana/vitadock-api/wiki/Access-Public-User-Id-%5Bbeta%5D

It used to return a user_id in the following format
xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Now I receive the html for a login page.
<html><head><title>Login Page</title></head><body onload='document.f.j_username.focus();'>
<h3>Login with Username and Password</h3><form name='f' action='/auth/j_spring_security_check' method='POST'>
<table>
<tr><td>User:</td><td><input type='text' name='j_username' value=''></td></tr>
<tr><td>Password:</td><td><input type='password' name='j_password'/></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan='2'><input name="submit" type="submit" value="Login"/></td></tr>
</table>
</form></body></html>

Visiting the url in a browser it seems the endpoint is now protected by a basic_auth prompt.
Is this deliberate? If so is there any other endpoint where the user-id can be retrieved from?

Hi Rob,

We moved it to another place, it shouldn't be on the auth server but on the data server (because it is data and has nothing to do with authentication). I will fix it in the documentation.

This is the new interface:

/data/publicusers/sync

If there is no public id for the user, a new (permanent) random one will be created.

Best regards,

Clemens

Hi Clemens,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I receive the following 404 error on the new endpoint location:

Hi Rob,

It's a standard data interface just like all the other modules. You need
to use the standard parameter (remove the ?oauth_token, include the
Authorization header etc.)

Hi Clemens,

I switched the user profile query to use the same code as when I am querying the different modules data.
I still receive a 404 error though.

Hi Rob,

Try publicusers (with s)

Also, you should check your Authorization string ('Authorization': u'OAuth looks a little bit strange, and you don't have to include the URL parameters in the authorization string (date_since, start, max))

Best regards,

Clemens

Thanks for the quick reply Clemens that fixed it.
You might need to update wiki as it has it in the singular.

Is there an additional access right required for the public user_id endpoint?
After changing url to the plural, I got a 401. I just assumed it was a token problem.
So I ran through the entire authentication flow, followed by a full data sync.
The user_id query fails but the rest succeed.

It gives the following errors message:
HTTP Status 401 - 401 No access right found.
type Status report
message 401 No access right found.
description This request requires HTTP authentication (401 No access right found.).

I checked the application configuration in the developer portal but I couldn't find any obvious access right that I need to add.
There was [Settings] User that I enabled but that didn't seem to solve the problem.
When I re-ran the entire auth flow and sync.

Any ideas?

Rob

Hi Rob,

Oh, yes, there is the dropdown value missing.

I will add the access right to your application in a few hours myself.

Best regards,

Clemens

Unfortunately I have to update the servers and I'm busy on Monday and Tuesday. The interface will be up and running on Wednesday evening, maybe morning.

Best regards and sorry for the inconvenience,
Clemens
