Use APIs from a non-BC site

Hi all. BC newbie here.
Is it possible to use the e-commerce APIs from a site that's not built on Business Catalyst? Support informed me that the APIs can't be accessed except through a Webapp, but it seems Webapps only run on a BC site. What's the solution, then? How do I make a non-BC site communicate with a BC site?
Or, do I have to make it go the other way? Write an app to have the BC site his the other site through Ajax?

Hi there,
That is a bit of a mix up.
You can not use Webapp API's on a a 3rd party system at this time and only through BC apps. other API's like the eCommerce can be used on 3rd party systems.
Ajax will not work because browsers use the same domain policy for protection, you need to do server side code or properly create jsonp etc content to access data if you want to read from another system in BC or other web services. All depends on what you are trying to achieve.

"Your script uses objects from a non-existent collection"

I have a multiple page form with a barcode on each form. I created a separate collection for each barcode. The auto generated code looks fine and has the correct collection created, however I still get the error, Paper Forms Barcode error "Your script uses objects from a non-existent collection".
I'm not sure what is wrong and I don't know how to fix it. Anyone else run into this?

You will need to create a shared folder in Dropbox, then populate that with what ever folders you need to organize the files. It appears the DropBox app,will not handle this, but you can do, it by logging in to you account via Safari. Once the folders are created, they will show up in the app. Likewise with designating the folders as shared. Anyone you wish to share with will need a Dropbox account. (using the public folder will not work since links out it are for files only, not folders. An odd restriction, but it is what it is).
IF you have copies of the files on a PC, you will find that will be the easiest place to upload them from. If they are only in iBooks on the iPad, you will need to synch and use the file management function to copy them off. not sure if you can synch them back over to DropCopy within iTunes (never tried it).
DEpending on your needs, a couple of apps to look into are iCab Mobile (a browser), and GoodReader (doc viewing and management app). Both integrate well with DropBox.

We are intgerating OTM (Oracle transportation management system) with SAP.
We need to have a single point where the users track all their norifications.
Is it possible to add notifications (task or error) into sap UWL from a non sap system.
If yes what are the main steps to do it?
Which set up must be done in SAP UWL to manage this?
Thanks in advance

Using Contribute on a non-Dreamweaver site.

A client wants to use Contribute 3 for CMS on a site I have built with Brand-X software and hand coding. This is not a Dreamweaver site.
I have found and tested the following code, posted in 2007 by ThinkInk -
----------------------------------- example code ----- see body tag for editable code------
<body>

editable content

</body>
</html>
This gives a titled, highlighted box around the html marked, but leaves all items on the page selectable, html editable and most imges deletable.
Can someone provide a sample of code that could be added to areas that should not be edited?

Hi, Light,
Oh, you're fine with being secretive. I don't actually want to know what software you are using, because it doesn't make any difference to me! I don't have experience with other softwares and can't offer any wisdom that way!
Regarding the CSS pages, make sure that the external CSS files are properly linked to your Template files. If you are looking at a Template page with properly linked CSS files, you should see them in the CSS Styles Panel...both the files and a list of the styles therein. You also should see that your html pages look correct.
Don't make Templates of the CSS files; they need to be CSS files, not Templated pages.
If your CSS files are named with the .css extension and linked, they should show up in the CSS Styles Panel. If the files are well-formed, but don't carry a .css extension, you might make new pages File > New > New Document > CSS and create a new file for each, pasting in your CSS declarations just under the
@charset "utf-8";
/* CSS Document */
at the top of the file. Then make sure each file is properly linked to the appropriate Template pages.
Make sure, after you have fixed up the CSS files and the Templates, that you propagate the changes...save each Template file and answer yes, when you are asked if you want to update the files. If any of those files are open in the Document Window, after you have Saved the Template you will need to Save All again, to save the individual pages.
Then upload to your server. <Grin>

How to call remote API from root SharePoint 2013 domain (not an app)

I'm trying to follow the article
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/fp179895%28v=office.15%29.aspx
For a SharePoint 2013 hosted under O365, do I need to create an app to use the SP.* methods in sp.js? I need to call a remote API from the root domain (https://mycompany.sharepoint.com). But the app, as mentioned in the article
above, deploys on a whole different URL (https://mycompany-a2d3f4t454.sharepoint.com).
I need to be able to call the API from pages like https://mycompany.sharepoint.com/pages/default.aspx. Is this not possible?

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to call remote API from the root domain site.
Yes, you can use SharePoint hosted app to achieve it. SharePoint hosted app has app web and host web, you can create an app to call the remote api in the host web from app web.
Here are some detailed articles for your reference:

How do you hyperlink a rollover to another page from within your iweb site?

Ive made a bunch of rollovers for my iweb navigation bar. If youve created a rollover you know you have to link the images to a image hosting site. here as you would just normally drag and drop a image from your desk top. Because of the way iweb works, if you are using images from a image hosting sit, you can no longer adjust the characteristics of the images i.e. colors, size, and in this case the hyperlink. More specifically you cant change the hyperlink to a page within the iweb site.
So the problem im trying to figure out is how to link the rollover to a page within my iweb site.
now you can actually change the hyperlink of the rollover. however you must do this by adjusting the html within the snippet of the rollover. The problem i found is that iweb doesnt creat sub domains for each page. a entire iweb site with multible pages uses only one domain which is the homepage. so i cant just type a subdomain of another page into the snippet hyperlink because the subdomain doesnt exist.
here is the link to my site. youll notice i did figure out a work around with the "contact us" button but its a huge pain in the butt. i had to create a new domain and a new site then attach the referal index.html to that new domain. todo this for every single button is very difficult.
http://springgardenranch.tk
so i guess the bigger question is, is there a easier way to do this?
perhaps if there was a way to create a subdomains like springgardenranch.tk/contactus withing iweb for each page. but i dont even know if thats possible.
thanks for you help.

Because of the way iweb works, if you are using images from a image hosting sit, you can no longer adjust the characteristics of the images i.e. colors, size, and in this case the hyperlink.
Then use your own images. Then you can create them the way you want.
Here's how I do it :

And here's the menu in an iWeb page :
http://cafenoir.atspace.com/HNBF/
And here you can learn how to do it. Follow the links to the How-To pages.

You may have to learn HTML. CSS, JavaScript, AJAX, DOM and how iweb creates its webpages.

Creating Job material using public API from WIP

Take the entered component part number and search in the WIP job material requirements. This should use a WIP API. If the material is found, increment the quantity. If material is not found, create the job material using public API. (Provide WIP API details)
The java object, oracle.apps.csd.schema.server .CsdHvWipJobPvtEO is a wrapper to call WIP API. This should be used to create material requirements is this the procedure to create job material Req.

Hi Pat,
What is your SBO version? I've seen several cases in which the login/connection procedure (both in the client and via DI API) has become much slower after upgrading to SBO 2005.
Do you experience the same slowness when connecting via DI API in a non-WebService setting?
I would not recommend using DI API in a web service context in the first place. DI Server would give you a much more robust, stable and scalable infrastructure to build upon.

How can I import a non-BC site into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free sites?

I am trying to import one of my non-BC sites into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free WebBasics sites.
When I try to create a new BC site in Dreamweaver CC, it creates a BC template site, and I have unsuccessfully tried to update the files on BC - it won't let me connect.
If I import the site from my portal, I don't get the option of a free site - when I try to upgrade, I get the credit card form asking for payment.
I feel like I'm running around in circles with one foot nailed to the floor.
Any tips?

Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion. I'm exporting the first section now. I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie. I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame? If it can, what size should I select when I export?

Is there any REST API to get all the Site and site Collections from Sharepoint Online

Hi,
I have one SharePoint Online tenant. We are using REST API to integrate SharePoint to our internal System.
For my use case I need to get all the SharePoint sites ans Sitecollections. From each SiteCollection I need all the subsites under this.
I have used below REST Query
http://<Base site url>/_api/web
This doesn't give me all the Site collections
Could any one please give me some way to get all the Site collections and sites from my sharepoint tenant through REST API.
Thanks,

Hi Abhiram,
There seems no such endpoint in SharePoint REST API can retrieve a list of site collections in a SharePoint Online tenant:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj860569.aspx#Reference
If Client Object Model can be an option for you, you can use Tenant object to achieve what you want:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/24050.perform-basic-admin-operations-using-csom-in-sharepoint-online.aspx#Scenario_3_Fetch_All_Site_Collections
Anyway, I would suggest you submit a feedback to the Office Developer Platform if there any expectation about the future version of REST API of Office 365 SharePoint
Online:
http://officespdev.uservoice.com/
It
is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products. What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft
Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.

Remotely create sites from a non IIS server

Hi!
I'm creating some scripts to create websites to different web servers, but I'm standing in a non IIS server. So, I wanted to install the powershell snap-in for IIS administration, but I read that from Windows R2 it's a module, and can only be accessed from
an IIS server.
So, my question goes to, if I can't install the snap-in anymore because I'm working with R2 servers, can I create some local script that creates all my sites, and then just invoke it from my non IIS server? Or that is not going to work?
Thanks!

Hello.
You can install windows features (windows server 2008) using this:
Import-Module ServerManager
Get-WindowsFeature
Add-WindowsFeature FeatureName
Unfortunately IIS cmdlets don't have -ComputerName parameter and you cannot manage a remote server.
In powershell 3 you can use remote modules (remooting should be enabled on the remote server - see
man about_Remote_Requirements):
$servername="Server1"
$session=New-PSSession -ComputerName $servername -Credential (Get-Credential -Message "Enter your credential to access $servername")
Import-Module WebAdministration -PSSession $session
get-website # will be ran on remote server
Good luck)

Retrieve data from a non-peoplesoft application using HTTP Get

I need to retrieve data from a non-peoplesoft application. They want us to submit a HTTP GET request to their URL with a series of parameters. I am thinking about using HTTP Targert connector to accomplish this. Does anyone have sample peoplecode?
Currently we are on 8.51.10 Tools...
If there is any better way .. please let me know ..

I have used HTTP Get to get XML file from a government sanction list by hitting URL http://www.treasury.gov/ofac/downloads/sdn.xml
There is a delivered PS program that does that for vendor sanctions. I had to get the online setup correctly by creating a new custom Node with HTTP Target Connector. The program name is BSP_IMPORT. The below code is responsible for the calling the node and retrieving the data. Play around with the code below see if you can get it to meet your needs.
BSP_IMPORT_AET.BANKNODE.Value is just the custom external code that I created.
PMT_FLAT_FILE_INBOUND message is just a none rowset based message to use the web service call.
Local TR:FileUtilities:FTP &oFTPUtil = create TR:FileUtilities:FTP();
+/* HTTP */+
+/*******************************************************************************/+
Local Message &msgHTTP;
Local Message &msgResult;
+&msgHTTP = CreateMessage(Message.PMT_FLAT_FILE_INBOUND);+
+&oFTPUtil.PopulateFTPGetIBInfo(&msgHTTP, BSP_IMPORT_AET.BANKNODE.Value);+
+&msgResult = %IntBroker.ConnectorRequest(&msgHTTP);+
+/* check to see if the file is wrapped */+
+&strAllLines = &msgResult.GenXMLString();+
+&strAllLines = Substitute(&strAllLines, Char(26), " "); /* Added this line to remove invalid characters */+

How to use the EBS PL/SQL API from outside PL/SQL

Hi,
our attempts to call the stored procedures/functions of the EBS PL/SQL API via JDBC revealed the following issues:
1. Logical values cannot be exchanged through boolean parameters as the OCI has no notion of this type. Instead we need to write PL/SQL wrappers converting boolean to integer and vice versa. Is that true or are we missing something?
2. Complex values cannot be exchanged through record types as only PL/SQL code has a notion of this type. Instead we need to write PL/SQL wrappers converting record values to object type values. Is that true or are we missing something?
3. Types must be defined outside of packages, i.e. in the schema, for whatever reason. Instead we need to write PL/SQL wrappers converting values of types defined in packages to values of types defined in the schema. Is that true or are we missing something?
4. It is possible to let functions return tables so the results can be queried using SELECT * FROM TABLE. Such functions are called "table functions". Is there something similar for the other direction, i.e. is it possible to call a stored procedure and pass in a table value through an sql INSERT statement?
5. Do we really have to write all those wrapper routines on our own or is there a PL/SQL library providing such? If not, is there some kind of code generation facility that can generate such wrappers?
Thanks and Regards,
Konrad

Hi Helios,
I belive its better to move your issue on Forum Home » Database » SQL and PL/SQL which you can get more quick responseYou are probably right! I was thinking about a different forum but I did not see this one. I just posted the question there...
Still, if somebody has an idea here as well, just let me know ;-)

Is there a way to make a video call from my iPhone 4 to a non apple phone? Also is it possible to transfer pics using bluetooth from iPhone to other company mobiles? Its a great phone but sometimes I feel struck inside it.

Is there a way to make a video call from my iPhone 4 to a non apple phone? Also is it possible to transfer pics using bluetooth from iPhone to other company mobiles? Its a great phone but sometimes I feel struck inside it.

You'd need an app like Skype to video call with other phones.
Data transfer is not supported via bluetooth and iphone to iphone is not supported at all.
