Using Data/Services to connect to NY Times API

I'm new to flex and have been trying to use the NY Times API to import xml data. After clicking the Data/Services tab and selecting "xml" I click the "path" button and insert my path
http://api.nytimes.com/svc/books/v2/lists/BooksPaperback.xml?&api-key={my api key here}
After clicking invoke I get a results set and Service Details so I know I am getting a response from the API. However... I get this error at the top 'Parameter names can only contain letters, number and "_".' . I guess it doesn't like the use of 'api-key' but I'm not sure how that has an effect on the information being returned and why it matters? Either way, I cannot click "finish" to use this data. Is there anything I can do? Thanks in advance to any help I receive
NY Times API docs here: http://developer.nytimes.com/docs/best_sellers_api#h3-example-request

Using Data Services (AMF) with Android

Hello,
I'm working on Android application which needs to invoke existing AMF service.
I've read the following post:
Creating an Android application that invokes Data Services
...which states that you need flex-messaging-client-android.jar as part of your build to be able to use Data Services.
This took me to the following post:
Create a Data Services application for the Experience Server that returns data
From there I managed to set up Expesience Server and connect to the Packages, but nowhere can I find the "dataservices-sdk-pkg.zip" which is suppose to contain the flex-messaging-client-android.jar. All I can find is "dataservices-pkg.zip" which does not have "flex-messaging-client-android.jar", but has bunch of other JARs. I've also spend reasnoble amount of time seraching through Package Share, but no luck.
I've also Googled and read through all other posts relaetd to this topic and none of them seem to lead to success
So my question is:
when connecting Android application to AMF backend, do we still need to use the "flex-messaging-client-android.jar" or is there a new JAR that has replased this?
If "flex-messaging-client-android.jar" needs to be used, could you help me find it.
Thanks

Found it...
In the Package Share found the following package: es-sdk-pkg
Downleaded that, then saved to local drive, then unzip.
In "es-sdk-pkg" package you can find "dataservices-sdk-pkg" in the following location:
...\jcr_root\etc\packages\adobe\aep\platform\sdk
Unzip "dataservices-sdk-pkg" and the "flex-messaging-client-android.jar" is in the following location:
...\jcr_root\etc\aep\sdks\riaservices\dataservices\4.5.1\android
Hope this helps someone else.

Can you include an "obtool lsh -l" please? You may also want to check that you can do an "obtool pingh" to the client and media servers that are being used. Maybe a service isn't accessible.
Please confirm you are using OSB 10.3.0.3.0 from "obtar -V"
You should also not really be writing your RMAN jobs to the OSB Catalog Media Family. You should instead use its own or the RMAN-DEFAULT one.
Thanks

I cannot use data and voice at the same time.

I cannot use data and voice at the same time.
I am on Wifi (connected) and at the same time I am on a voice call. when I switch to my RSS feed reader it does not sync it comes out with a message cannot connect to internet, I thought it is a problem with the feed reader application, IE 10 behaves the same I cannot browse when I am on a voice call.
This is a very basic issue, am I missing something? Please help.
My Model is lumia 820 with the latest portico update.
TIA

I am aware that packet data via EDGE and voice cannot happen at the same time, surprisingly when I am on voice call I cannot connect to internet via Wifi too

Extract data from ECC to Oracle using Data Services 4.0

How to extract data from ecc6.0 Business content extractors to oracle using sap bo data services 4.0

Are you trying to use the SAP BW Business Content to extract data out of ECC and load into Oracle tables with Data Services? If that's the case, then you cannot do that. The SAP BW Business Content was developed to only be used in conjunction with SAP BW. When using Data Services to access the extractors in ECC, it has to have an SAP BW InfoPackage associated with it to execute. In this architecture, Data Services is only a pass through from ECC to BW and allows the ability to do some transformations of data prior to loading into the EDW layer (staging tables basically) on SAP BW.
To connect ECC to Oracle, you're going to have to have all of the SAP BusinessObjects supplied Function Modules loaded onto ECC, along with a non-dialog logon account that has the ability to pass dynamic ABAP programs, generate the programs and schedule them. Depending on how you want to process the output, you may also have to have the ability to write to files on the ECC application servers and have an FTP account created on the application servers that can GET flat files and potentially DELETE them (you're going to need to delete periodically, otherwise your jobs will crash when the file space allocation has been consumed).

Push Data in SAP Tables using Data Services

Hi
Lets suppose that I have used Data Services 4.0 to pull data from KNA1 table , and loaded into the MDM where data cleansing , enrichment and deduplication has been done, and then MDM writes to a file.
How can Data Services then push the cleansed data back into the SAP table ( KNA1) ? [or it cannot be done due to multiple reasons ]
Rishi

Hi
To update an SAP table, import the metadata for the relevant BAPI or IDoc and call it via a query transform.

Extract data from a BW 7.0 cube to a SQL DB using Data Services XI

Hi Gurus,
We are trying to extract data from a BW 7.0 cube to a SQL DB using Data Services XI, the issue is that we can not read text without making "joins" between SID in the fact table and the master data tables. Do you know if it is posible to read text in a natural way?
Best Regards

Thanks Wondewossen,
As you know, the DataStores (Data Services) provide access to:
1.-Tables
2.-Functions
3.-IDOCs
4.-Open Hub Tables
We are trying to extract data using the first one (Tables), not using Open Hub.

Use data services wizard or not in flash builder 4 (advice)

Hi,
I have been playing and reading a lot about how to use the new data service connection wizard for data centric management in flash buidler 4.
I'm facing now some problems, first, the files it is generating is somehow complex for me, and it seems I can't add new operations just stick to the ones it uses (documentation states the operations that must be defined to make everything work (addItem,etc...)). On the other hand, I had a little php system I used in flex builder 3 to have just only one file in the server that using reflexion could serve differnt kinds of data to the data services, now, I think I can't use them because It doesn't follow "operation names". As an example, for the getItem, I pass the VO type taht will be used, etc...
Some pros/contrs:
Using wizards
1) Everything is ready to use in seconds.
2) Forms can be generated automatically.
3) Best aproach to do things (I guess, if adobe people is doint it this way it is because it is the best way to do it)
Without wizards
1) No time trying to undestand the cryptic generated files.
2) Free to use any signature to calll from the services (Not just stick to addItem, updateItem, etc... with predefined signature.
3) Less server files floating around (if you like me do some kind of reflection on the service files, to share operations for any type you need).
Well, perhaps I could be totally wrong, but it is a bit of a pain for me to get into CDM, could anyone bring some light, confirming for exampel that new operations can be added easily, etc...?
Thanks in advance,
Aron.

hi,
DCD is currently in its infancy and suffers from a lack of features you might find in more mature tools of this nature. In its current form I think its a great tool for rapid prototyping and as it matures may also be a great tool for enterprise development. I am sure as Adobe work with feedback they get from the community these wizards etc.. will get much better.
So that leaves you with the choice of staying with what you are familiar with or putting the effort into become familiar with DCD and using it to its maximum abilities then pushing it a bit further. Its now a part of the environment and its not going to disappear so its wise to at least become familiar with its useability so you don't get left behind as it does improve.
At the moment it does a lot of the minding numbing work of setting up connections preparing client side and server side scripting for basic crud operations and in many simple cases this will be enough.
You can update services with you own code and DCD will generate the client side code for you (VO's etc) you just need to guide DCD as to send and return types. In a lot of cases you can reuse the value objects generated for your extended services (for instance you have a client table that you create a filter for you just tell dcd its the same type as a select from client and when it generates your client code it knows how to type results etc.)
Experts will never be happy with wizards, the code is not as optimal as hand written code and sometimes confusing to maintain. For those getting into development of backend communication the DCD will help them immensely, and hopefully guide them to best practises when it comes to how you should structure everything.
Is it ready for large scale application ?, thats not my call to make(but it's not ready yet ), I will use DCD if I think it can do the job without to much from me otherwise the old tried and true methods will be applied. My expectation is that the DCD will become more powerful and as it does I will be ready to use it on a more frequent basis. For now I still concentrate most my efforts on the 'old way' but won't ignore and the value it can bring to the development cycle.

Problem to use data services on different telco device

Dear Readers,
I've bought a used BlackBerry Curve 8900 of telco Starhub Limited (Singapore).
I found the trackball faulty & managed to get a replacement set from Starhub as it is
still under warranty.
The new device carry the following PIN & IMEI.
PIN : [removed personal information]
IMEI : [removed personal information]
I brought it back to my own country (Malaysia) & use it with my current Telco, Maxis.
I'm able to make/receive calls & send/receive sms.
Then I went along to register this device to use my telco (Maxis) BIS service.
I managed to register this device to my telco BIS but however I wasn't able to use
any data services at all ie. emails, browsers, applications & even wifi.
My device only shows upper case GSM network on its screen & no gprs or edge.
Throubleshoot cames & I found there are entries in the device host routing table.
Whenever I try to register the entries this error will appear.
"Registration message queued. It will be sent once data coverage is available"
I called my Telco many times on this problem & hasn't got a clue what is going on
Their BlackBerry technical assitance also spoke the same tone.
For trial & error I went to purchase a Starhub sim & activate this device with Starhub prepaid
BlackBerry service & to my surprised the data services came alive!!
The device is showing upper case GPRS on its screen & I'm able to use all the data services.
Thinking that this device PIN might be hooked to Starhub wireless network I called them up to release it.
I got a big shock when they told me that this device PIN wasn't hooked to their BIS service.
Not giving up I went back & try to register this device with my Telco (Maxis) BIS service again & this error came.
"The information you have provided is not valid for this service provider"
I got so upset & has been losing sleep as both telco are unable to tell me what is the problem.
I'm paying for a unlimited BIS plan with my Telco (Maxis) & unable to use any data services.
Went off to spend my Christmas losing sleep!!!
Can anyone out there tell me what is going on??
I would also be very grateful is someone is knowledgeable enough to guide me how to hook
this device with my Telco (Maxis) BIS & use all the data functions.
Lastly not forgetting I wished all readers a belated Christmas.

Dear Readers,
I've got my BlackBerry alive & kicking!
For the benificial of all, I will post what I did here.
First of all I called up Starhub to cancel off my prepaid BlackBerry
service with them.
From the information given by Starhub I figured out that my device
is hooked on Maxis BIS but working on Starhub data network.
I've called up Maxis & ask them to release my PIN then reset my BIS account.
They told me to do a hard reset (battery & sim off) for 10 minutes.
When I turned it on after 10 minutes, to my surprised upper case GPRS appeared.
From my own analysis these few days the only clue I for the cause of this is
probably I register my BIS too early even before the data service is activated.
Other that this I can't think of any possibilty.
Welcome all to share their view here.

ORA-00054 error when loading Oracle table using Data Services

Hello,
we are facing ORA-00054 error when loading Oracle table using BO Data services
(Oracle 10g database, BODS Xi 3.2 SP3)
Test Job performs
1- truncate table
2- load table (tested in standard and bulk load modes)
Scenario when issue happens is:
1- Run loading Job
2- Job end in error for any Oracle data base error
3- When re-running the same Job, Job fails with following error
ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified
It seems after first failure, Oracle session for loading the table stays active and locks the table.
To be able to rerun the Job, we are forced need to kill Oracle session manually to be able to run the Job again.
Expected behaviour would be : on error rollback modifications made on table and BODS stops Oracle session in a clean way.
Can somebody tell me / or point me to any BODS best practice about Oracle error handling to prevent such case?
Thanks in advance
Paul-Marie

the ora-0054 can occure depending how the job failed before. If this occures you will need the DBA to release the lock on the table in question
Or
AL_Engine.exe on The server it creates the Lock. Need to Kill Them. Or stop it..
This Problem Occurs when we select The Bulkloading Option in orclae We also faced the same issue,Our admin has Killed the session. Then everything alright.

Using Data Services WSDL with Visual Studio 2008

I am attempting to use the Data Services XI 3.1 WSDL (I think this Data Integrator v 12.1) in Visual Studio 2008 and I am having some difficulty.
I am getting the wsdl from the following location: http://devserver:28080/DataServices/servlet/webservices?ver2.0&wsdlxml
When I attempt to add the web reference to a project all look fine, I see a display of all the methods and their parameter description, etc. but when the add is complete it appears to be unusable. Attempting to instanciate the web service and call the methods results in unreconizable data types. The web service does not show up in Intellisense as a reconizable class, etc.
Am I doing something wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

try adding a "Service Reference..."
In the add Service Reference panel, click Advanced and then select Add Web Reference. Enter the url to the WSDL and see if this works.
If this continues to fail, try replacing 2.0 with 1.1 on your URL
ie: /webservices?ver1.1&wsdlxml
if that still fails, past the URL in a browser and see if there are any error messages in the <documentation> tags.
if you are still having issues, try posting to:

How to perform merge operation using Data services designer?

I am new here and new to Data Services Desinger as well.
And currently, I want to do a merge operation using query transform or table comparison transform. But sadly, neither one of them is giving me what I want.
So, wonder if you could help clarify if either one of them could achieve MERGE operation between and source and target tables?
if positive, then how?
PS:
by MERGE, i mean, if data exists in target table, then only do update, else, do insert. same with the standard MERGE operation of oracle.
If you need any more info, let me know!
Thanks in advance.

You can do this.
You don't need the Tabe_Comparison transform actually.
Just query the data you need and output the flow from your query to your target table.
Then, you'll have to check the "Auto correct load" option: this will insert new lines and updates old ones. One checked, you can ckeck the "Auto correct load" checkbox.
By default, BODS will know a line already exists based uppon the primary key columns of your target table. If you want to change the columns used to determine if a line should be inserted or updated, use the "Use input key" checkbox (and define some PK column in your query).
Hope this helps
Guillaume
