What are trial subscribtion restrictions.

Wed, 30 Jun 2021 10:35:08 +0000

Hello, I'd like to know what are trial subscription restriction? How many API calls can I do and so on. Also as I found out threre is some kind of indie subscription for non-comercial apps. I read indie subscription has 1 million API calls. I don't need a lot of API calls for my app, because it is just demo app, where I show some mechanics inclide cloud data storage with app42 services. And I need only one not large JSON file to store. What should I do to get indie subscription, or some kind of free subscription for non-comercial single app.

Hi, Is the Avatar Management Service available for Corona yet? Corona is now Solar2D. Thanks, Scott

CORS PROBLEM

It looks that this issue not resolved. I still can't update my data.

GetTopNRankersFromFacebook does not return friends' scores

Mon, 26 Oct 2020 14:47:23 +0000

I have setup several Test users via Facebook developer account. They are friends of each other. When I tried to get friends' scores using

GetTopNRankersFromFacebook

. It only returns the user himself.

I have used

user_friends

permission and linked user facebook account. Anything did I miss?

    public void FbLogin()
    {
        var perms = new List<string>() { "public_profile", "email", "user_friends" };
        FB.LogInWithReadPermissions(perms, AuthCallback);
    }

    private void AuthCallback(ILoginResult result)
    {
        if (FB.IsLoggedIn)
        {
            // AccessToken class will have session details
            var aToken = Facebook.Unity.AccessToken.CurrentAccessToken;

            App42API.Initialize(ConstVariables.APP42_API_KEY, ConstVariables.APP42_SECRET_KEY);
            SocialService socialService = App42API.BuildSocialService();

            socialService.LinkUserFacebookAccount(aToken.UserId, aToken.TokenString, new LinkCallBack());
            scoreBoardService = new ScoreBoardService(ConstVariables.APP42_API_KEY, ConstVariables.APP42_SECRET_KEY);
        }
        else
        {
            Debug.Log("User cancelled login");
        }
    }

Result:

Upload Service (and Avatar Service) fail with null reference exception when uploading.

Mon, 19 Oct 2020 02:06:27 +0000

In my latest attempt I switched over to using the Upload Service for this one, but I tried previously with the Avatar Service and was fairly certain that it was the same error. I get a null reference exception however as near as I can tell none of the values being passed to the upload function are null (see debug values below).

Using Unity 3D and C#.

Error Message:

Importing questions as a json for a trivia game

Wed, 22 Jul 2020 06:14:03 +0000

I am new to this community and exploring options for a trivia app that iam working on. In the storage section I see an option to "Import" Json which iimports the json as a file and not as individual documents in the collection . My expectation is to import the json (with all the questions of the trivia game) so it gets added as documents (each json object) . Can this be achieved ? If not, what is the real purpose of Import option then ?

App42 Storage Service call not working from Button Click event.But working directly

Sat, 11 Apr 2020 14:38:55 +0000

When I call my Storage service be it insertJSONDocument or findDocumentById from my lua file which loads and call the DBService calls and it returns the results.

But same function when I call from a button click event in the same lua file the below error is displayed.

AppWarp\WarpUtilities.lua:224: attempt to concatenate local 'user' (a nil value)

stack traceback:

AppWarp\WarpUtilities.lua:224: in function 'calculateSignature'

App42-Lua-API\Util.lua:134: in function 'sign'

App42-Lua-API\StorageService.lua:169: in function 'findDocumentById'

DbConnect.lua:48: in function 'getData'

View1.lua:60: in function '_onEvent'

?: in function '?'

This is basic step .I do not know why it should not work. My Appwrap and Appwrap42 are having different api key and secret key.

Is it because the storage calls should be only called from main thread of the Scene lua file and cannot be called from inside of any other event or callback function

Unable to setup push notifications for android app

Fri, 03 Apr 2020 13:28:25 +0000

Hi, we are trying to implement push notifications for Android through your Corona SDK Rest API. As you might already be aware that Google has declared gcm to be deprecated and have asked all developers to use fcm instead. Therefore, any new project created on firebase doesn't contain the legacy server key which has been used by app42 for notifications.

The dashboard won't let us enter the FCM key for the new servers because it is more than 100 characters long and we are thus unable to setup push for our app. Can you please advise?

Thanks

My device which is able to connect is a Samsung galaxy j7 prime. Devices which wont work are a Samsung galaxy j7 pro and my virtual device which is a Pixel 2.

Create a test script to send an email:

Registered Email Validation

Tue, 17 Dec 2019 12:24:28 +0000

Thanks for your quick response, but still can not understand the implementation, sorry for the little expertise, I'm still a beginner.
I recently used another platform, Firebase. In it when registering a user in my application through email and password Firebase itself sent an email with a link and when the user opened his email and clicked on this link the account was validated and the application login was released.
From what you explained to me, I have to build this solution into my code, correct?
But how is the process of sending email at Apphq? Can this be automated?
Are there any tutorials for implementing this validation or an example app that can be used as a reference?

When I tried intergrating App42 service to the protoype I all get an error, callstack as shown above. Currently the services I have been trying to implement are

User Service
Storage Service

Using the user service I have create Users,

Snippet: m_refUserService.CreateUser(App42ServicesData.m_strUsername,App42ServicesData.m_strPwd, App42ServicesData.m_strEmailId, m_refapp42UserServiceListener); I get NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object error but when I check the User Dashboard in App42 I can see the user

As the data was being uploaded correctly I carried on and started to integrate Storage Services, I get the same error but this time the data is not saved on the server. I have added code statement App42Log.SetDebug(true); so as to get App42Logs

I tried calling User Service Api GetUser

SNIPPET: m_refUserService.GetUser(App42ServicesData.m_strUsername, m_refapp42UserServiceListener);

I have attached a txt file containing the debug logs and the code

User creation seems to work, I can see the added users in the dashboard but nothing else seems to work. All Api calls throws null references. I can see RESTConnectorWWW gameobject in the hierrarchy.

I have tried to give as much as information as possible I hope It helps the team help me quickly and better. Thank you

How to format a collection in json and save using the storage service

Sun, 14 Jul 2019 21:20:09 +0000

Using .net to build a server and save data from the server to App42, that clients will then retreive in unity3d.

I pull data from other API with the server ( financial data in that case ), that i put in a collection, and then try to save that on App42.
When i Serialize the collection via newtonsoft.json in C#, i get the followiing json :

[{"id":1,"name":"Bitcoin","symbol":"BTC","slug":"bitcoin","circulating_supply":"17817825","total_supply":"17817825","max_supply":"21000000","date_added":"2013-04-28T00:00:00Z","cmc_rank":1,"price_usd":10671.0584356,"price_btc":1.0,"volume_24h":23185304866.5182,"percent_change_1h":1.57316,"percent_change_24h":-3.85315,"percent_change_7d":-6.54577,"market_cap":190135051770.29456,"last_updated":"2019-07-14T21:13:30Z"},{"id":1027,"name":"Ethereum","symbol":"ETH","slug":"ethereum","circulating_supply":"106899675.5615","total_supply":"106899675.5615","max_supply":null,"date_added":"2015-08-07T00:00:00Z","cmc_rank":2,"price_usd":238.58230671,"price_btc":0.022357885878879574,"volume_24h":8582925524.28892,"percent_change_1h":1.12083,"percent_change_24h":-10.1693,"percent_change_7d":-21.368,"market_cap":25504371182.013287,"last_updated":"2019-07-14T21:13:19Z"}]

Which gives the following error when tryign to save that document :
com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.csharp.App42BadParameterException: {"app42Fault":{"httpErrorCode":400,"appErrorCode":2605,"message":"Bad Request","details":"Passed JSON string is not valid."}}

   at com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.csharp.storage.StorageService.<InsertJSONDocument>c__AnonStorey0.<>m__0()

I am not sure how to serialize that collection in order for it to be "valid" ?

This is how i convert the collection ( using newtonsoft.Json )
string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(list_coin);
Storage storage = storageService.InsertJSONDocument(dbName,collectionName,json);

"httpErrorCode":401,"appErrorCode":1401,"message":"UnAuthorized Access"

Thu, 04 Jul 2019 10:33:23 +0000

errorValue : {"app42Fault":{"httpErrorCode":401,"appErrorCode":1401,"message":"UnAuthorized Access","details":"Client is not authorized"}} When I try to login i.e authenticate user on Unity3d Editor I face "httpErrorCode":401,"appErrorCode":1401,"message":"UnAuthorized Access", where as the same code works fine on my Android device. Is there anything I need to do for it to make work on my editor? Also note, the sdk I am using is quite old, I started this project back in 2016 and now doing some changes in it. Back then all the app42 api requests worked fine in editor as well, but now API requests are only working in Android device and not in Unity3d editor. Will appreciate a quick response! Thanks

The GET and POST request for storing the user score is getting sent continuously. How to stop it?

Tue, 28 May 2019 06:54:48 +0000

The GET and POST request for storing the user score is getting sent continuously. How to stop it? The multiple POST score requests are flooding the score table like anything for the same user. How can I send a single POST request to save the user score and get the Top 10 user data from the leaderboard. 1 POST request and 1 GET request respectively

Problem regarding Push Notification migration fromGCM to FCM

Thu, 04 Apr 2019 14:12:02 +0000

Hi, we are a long time customer of app42 and a monthly subscription holder. When Google announced that GCM services will be deprecated and no longer be contined about a year ago, we had timely shifted all our games from GCM to FCM. We understood from referring the forums that to switch the support, all one has to do is change the server key in the app42 dashboard. We received an email from Google yesterday, that the support of GCM will be abandoned in a couple of weeks and 2 of our projects are currently using the service. We were aghast to know that since the projects that Google mentioned, are currently live and have over 100,000 users. We have no idea what has gone wrong and seek immediate explanation from you regarding this matter as a lot is on stake for us. We are left with a very short time to act and this could prove to be an absolute disaster if nothing is done soon!

Overcoming 100 document limit: Need number of pages matching a Query before using findDocumentByQueryWithPaging

Sun, 31 Mar 2019 11:15:26 +0000

Sorry, I feel like all my previous attempts at asking this question have been misunderstood and I've only been given partial answers that do not relate to every aspect of what I'm trying to solve. My problem is that I don't know how many total records there are for a given QUERY and I need to get this through the API.

The query has (or can have) more than 100 documents\records to return
I need to load all these (100+) at once - I know I need to use findDocumentByQueryWithPaging "x" number of times to get all matching documents.
I need a solution to get the absolute total number of available documents matching this query so that I can work out how many times I need to run findDocumentByQueryWithPaging

I apologise for asking variations of this question so many times but I have been told multiple answers that don't meet all the criteria above, and each has had some of the shortfalls below.

In my most recently received answer I was told to use jsonDocList.Count, but this is only going to tell me how many records were returned in the current query not how many remain unloaded.
storage.GetRecordCount() does not return more than 100 unless there are fewer records in total
storage.GetTotalRecords() is always -1
In this the user was told NOT to use getCountByQuery() and I believe that was limited to the cap of 100 records returned also

Rank facebook return wrong

Fri, 29 Mar 2019 08:25:19 +0000

The ranking list on the server has 2 users:

A: Rank 1, score 5 (Update at 5 PM)

B: Rank 2, score 5 (Update at 4 PM)

Using GetTopNRankersFromFacebook () returns the result wrong

B: Rank 1. score 5

A: Rank 2, score 5

if using GetUserRanking(A) return A:rank 1

Why when using GetTopNRankersFromFacebook () returns the wrong ranking order when 2 users have equal score, thanks

Get Count for Records matching query\criteria

Mon, 25 Mar 2019 18:56:01 +0000

Sorry, the answer given to me for the previous related question told me to use Find All Document Count but I need to count only those that match a specific query not all those in a collection. I have not experimented with CountByQuery because I read an answer to a different user's question that that function was going to be depreciated, is there an alternative? The first call to FindDocumentByQueryWithPaging() works but I am trying to work out if/when I need to call that function again if there are more records than the maximum 100. However storage.GetTotalRecords() always gives me -1 regardless of how many documents were successfully returned or how many are remaining and storage.CountRecords() just tells me how many records were given not how many there are in total.

What is the best method to find out how many documents/records there are?

Mon, 25 Mar 2019 11:01:48 +0000

storage.GetTotalRecords() gives me -1 storage.CountRecords() gives me the number I originally asked for in my query. And I read elsewhere that I shouldn't use CountByQuery because that is going to be depreciated.

Trying to understand "FindDocumentsByQueryWithPaging"

Sun, 24 Mar 2019 12:27:26 +0000

Hi,

So I recently realised that a normal FindDocumentsByQuery call limits the amount of results to 100 so I am trying to work out a way to get all the documents that match a particular query.

I am currently trying to use FindDocumentsByQueryWithPaging and have run into a few things that I've noticed...

1) Whatever value I set for the "max" param is of course how many documents I receive however storage.GetRecordCount() will return the same value (unless there are fewer records. If I have 150 records and "max" is set to 100, storage.GetRecordCount() tells me there are 100 records. How do I get it to tell me if there are more records that have not been loaded?

2) How would I then go about loading the next page of records? I have attempted to call FindDocumentsByQueryWithPaging() within the callback of the first - using exactly the same params except incrementing the offset by jsonDocList.Count. It seems like this should work but I get the following error when I try (not that the line number #1628 corresponds to where I attempt to call FindDocumentsByQueryWithPaging() within the CallBack:

system.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

And again servers are down

Multiple Score using same name on Leaderboard

Sat, 29 Dec 2018 09:11:45 +0000

It is possible to create a leaderboard that does not replace the highest score of the same name such that :

1. ABC 1000

2. EFG 999

3. ABC 998

4. EFG 222

100. EFG 20

Something along this line where we only update based on the top 100 scores.

So it is possible to still create the no.100 in ranking score value as well ?

Unicode and findDocumentsByQuery not possible?

Wed, 28 Nov 2018 04:16:17 +0000

My mobile app will be used in locales where user attributes, such as logins and aliases, will be in unicode. I need to be able to insert, update, and search for non-ASCII literals. What unicode support does your NoSQL have?

Of course I can base-64 it, but that would make it *UNSEARCHABLE*

If you don't have unicode support (why?), instead, I could convert all searchable fields in NoSQL to a string of character decimals. Ugly and heavy.

NoSQL.addOrUpdateKeys corrupting record and also clearing "Created On" and "Updated On" fields

Tue, 27 Nov 2018 19:44:02 +0000

PARTIAL SELF-ANSWER SEE MY SECOND COMMENT

Trying to update JSON on a record is accepting the update, but removing all but one of the original fields. Also, importantly, the "Created On" and "Updated On" fields are being set to blank!

The one field that remains of the original data happens to be first alphabetically. It would appear to me that the record is failing internally to the NoSQL service during the update, and no error is being raised. SEE MY COMMENT BELOW

Original data after NoSQL.insertJSONDocument:

{
  "rank": 0,
  "alias": "scrub QY2EUR",
  "equipmentStored": {
    "numTimePacks": 0,
    "sessNumIceTeas": 0,
    "numIceTeas": 0,
    "sessNumTimePacks": 0
  },
  "aliasTerms": {
    "a9": "eur",
    "a0": "scrub qy2eur",
    "a1": "crub qy2eur",
    "a2": "rub qy2eur",
    "a3": "ub qy2eur",
    "a4": "b qy2eur",
    "a5": " qy2eur",
    "a6": "qy2eur",
    "a7": "y2eur",
    "a8": "2eur"
  },
  "login": "scrub QY2EUR",
  "battleHistory": {
    "summaries": []
  },
  "accountPK": "5bfd9b0de4b07b66c46b4cdf"
}

...now the corrupted record after NoSQL.addOrUpdateKeys:

{
  "test": "testData",
  "alias": "scrub QY2EUR"
}

Notice that only "alias" from the origianal record survived the addOrUpdateKeys. The update code is not special, as below:

update = {test:"testData"};
nosqlSvc.addOrUpdateKeys(MASTER_DB_NAME, ACCOUNT_COLLECTION_NAME, accountDocId, update, ...

Also very importantly, the "Created On" and "Updated On" fields are blank after the call to NoSQL.addOrUpdateKeys. See attached screenshot.

Operator.LIKE only works if matching from start of field

Tue, 20 Nov 2018 21:01:31 +0000

I am unable to match on text that is after the first character of a JSON field. For example, if a field has the value "dishwasher", Operator.LIKE will match "dish" but not "wash". This is the same problem someone else had years ago in this forum, but no answer was provided.

IMPORTANT: It **works** if I use a search term that matches the front of the field. It **breaks** with NotFound if I search within the field.

Here is an AS3 code snippet:

App42Log.setDebug(true);
var searchTerm:String = "wash";  // "dish" WORKS!!!  All "alias" fields start with "dishwasher"
var query:Query = QueryBuilder.build("alias", searchTerm, Operator.LIKE);
nosqlSvc.findDocumentsByQuery(MASTER_DB_NAME, ACCOUNT_COLLECTION_NAME, query, ...);

Here is my data. It should match, but the findDocumentsByQuery fails: Note only the "alias" at the root is relevant

{
  "rank": 0,
  "credsPK": "5bf33c2ae4b0d32c003ba900",
  "alias": "dishwasher JYBE9U",
  "accountConfigured": false,
  "login": "dishwasher JYBE9U",
  "battleHistory": {
    "summaries": [
      {
        "winCode": 1,
        "winTs": 0,
        "opEnv": {
          "rank": 0,
          "alias": "dishwasher DAMUM6",
          "pk": "5bf1cc9de4b01d45f6a4b683"
        },
        "winPK": "5bf33c2ae4b0d32c003ba901"
      },
      {
        "winCode": 1,
        "winTs": 0,
        "opEnv": {
          "rank": 0,
          "alias": "dishwasher DAMUM6",
          "pk": "5bf1cc9de4b01d45f6a4b683"
        },
        "winPK": "5bf33c2ae4b0d32c003ba901"
      }
    ]

FindDocumentsByLocation Order By?

Sat, 17 Nov 2018 13:27:41 +0000

Hi,

Is it possible to do the following when using FindDocumentsByLocation:

Search with a specific key then => Order By Ascending or Descending then => using a max result limit (10 records)? (NO FILTERING ON CLIENT SIDE)

What I want to do is, Get the lastest 10 records.. AND I don't want to filter the data on client side as there will be too many records.

Also, is it possible to save JSON Document with the GeoServices? As GetPointsWithinCircle has result limit.
The only issue is that I want to save data with GeoPoint, which can only be done with StorageService right now

I am using UNITY3D

Are servers down?
