I'm trying to connect my website (in Developer Mode, so Sandbox True, non https) to Intuit from the Consolibyte "docs/partner_platform/example_app_ipp_v3/index.php" file, but I keep getting the following error:
Uh oh, there’s a connection problem. Sorry, but the app didn’t
connect. Please try again later, or contact customer support for help.
View error details (for Developers) The redirect_uri query parameter
value is invalid. Make sure it is listed in the Redirect URIs section
on your app's keys tab and matches it exactly. Click here to learn
more about the redirect_uri query parameter.
I've set the Redirect Uri in my intuit developer account for this app to the same Return URL in the Consolibyte config.php (docs/partner_platform/example_app_ipp_v3/success.php), but it still isn't working.
Am I doing something wrong? I followed everything in the quick start guide correctly.
config.php code:
$oauth_client_id = '***';
$oauth_client_secret = '***';
// If you're using DEVELOPMENT TOKENS, you MUST USE SANDBOX MODE!!! If you're in PRODUCTION, then DO NOT use sandbox.
$sandbox = true; // When you're using development tokens
//$sandbox = false; // When you're using production tokens
// This is the URL of your OAuth auth handler page
$quickbooks_oauth_url = 'http://www.***.com/quickbooks/docs/partner_platform/example_app_ipp_v3/oauth.php';
// This is the URL to forward the user to after they have connected to IPP/IDS via OAuth
$quickbooks_success_url = 'http://www.***.com/quickbooks/docs/partner_platform/example_app_ipp_v3/success.php';
// This is the menu URL script
$quickbooks_menu_url = 'http://www.***.com/quickbooks/docs/partner_platform/example_app_ipp_v3/menu.php';
// This is a database connection string that will be used to store the OAuth credentials
// $dsn = 'pgsql://username:password#hostname/database';
// $dsn = 'mysql://username:password#hostname/database';
$dsn = 'mysqli://***_intuit:***#localhost/***_quickbooks';
// You should set this to an encryption key specific to your app
$encryption_key = '***';
// Scope required
$scope = 'com.intuit.quickbooks.accounting ';
// The tenant that user is accessing within your own app
$the_tenant = 12345;
Your redirect URL doesn't match.
In Intuit's control panel it ends with success.php.
In your configuration, it ends with oauth.php.
The two URLs have to match exactly.
Also, make sure you're using the latest code from https://github.com/consolibyte/quickbooks-php - if you're using the latest code, you should have a config_oauthv2.php file and not just config.php.
I am using the quickbooks-php from GitHub. The version is quickbooks-php-master\docs\partner_platform\quickbooks-php-master\docs\partner_platform\example_app_ipp_v3.
I used this version 3 or 4 years ago and it work OK. Recently I wanted to try it again for a project. Since the last time I used it they only used OAUTH1 now they are using OAUTH2 for login and I'm not able to connect to my Sandbox account. I get a general error when the php coded tries to return the company name.
My question is do I need to make changes to the quickbooks-php-master\docs\partner_platform\example_app_ipp_v3 version in order to get it working again. I have the Development Keys (Client ID and Client Secret) from the developers site.
The config.php file is where you place these keys:
$token = 'xxx';
oauth_consumer_key = 'xxx';
`$oauth_consumer_secret = 'xxx';
The names of these keys have changed so it is a bit confusion as to whether these can work this way.
So the main question is does example_app_ipp_v3 work with OAUTH2 and if so can you direct me to the changes I need to make.
Any help on this would be great. If this version doesn't work with OAUTH2 I just need to know if that is the case so I can try something else.
OAuth2.0 support is being rolled out now. Check out the migration guide here:
https://github.com/consolibyte/quickbooks-php#oauth-10-to-oauth-20-migration
And the most recent updates. More updates to come. The configuration code changes a bit to accommodate the new OAuth 2.0 requirements:
$oauth_client_id = 'Q0ql65UCww8oAoiXfNdVyZ5WHoZ0kJ43XqstMhxGtM2UuA5WKu';
$oauth_client_secret = 'S60VXMXFygEOcb08DleS8iePUFyH81i4FhVrKaAB';
$sandbox = true; // When you're using development tokens
// This is the URL of your OAuth auth handler page
$quickbooks_oauth_url = 'http://sandbox.test/quickbooks-php/docs/partner_platform/example_app_ipp_v3/oauth.php';
// This is the URL to forward the user to after they have connected to IPP/IDS via OAuth
$quickbooks_success_url = 'http://sandbox.test/quickbooks-php/docs/partner_platform/example_app_ipp_v3/success.php';
// This is the menu URL script
$quickbooks_menu_url = 'http://sandbox.test/quickbooks-php/docs/partner_platform/example_app_ipp_v3/menu.php';
// This is a database connection string that will be used to store the OAuth credentials
$dsn = 'mysqli://dev:password#localhost/quickbooks';
// You should set this to an encryption key specific to your app
$encryption_key = 'bcde1234';
// Scope required
$scope = 'com.intuit.quickbooks.accounting ';
$IntuitAnywhere = new QuickBooks_IPP_IntuitAnywhere(
QuickBooks_IPP_IntuitAnywhere::OAUTH_V2,
$sandbox,
$scope,
$dsn,
$encryption_key,
$oauth_client_id,
$oauth_client_secret,
$quickbooks_oauth_url,
$quickbooks_success_url);
I have a quite specific question here.
I have been working with Cronjobs to get my Twittermessages automatically POSTed. I found the OAuth library by Abraham Williams.
This is what I did so far on my setup:
require_once ('Abraham/TwitterOAuth/autoloader.php');
use Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth;
$consumerKey = "XXXXX"; //add the key from your app
$consumerSecret = "XXXXX"; //add the secret from your app
$accessToken = "XXXXX"; //add the access token from your app
$accessSecret = "XXXXX"; //add the access secret from your app
$message = "This is another Test";
$connection = new TwitterOAuth($consumerKey,$consumerSecret,$accessToken,$accessSecret);
$connection->post("statuses/update", array("status" => $message));
My question is here. If I load this into my browser, shouldn't this already automatically send a Tweet?
I have setup my own Twitter app and I also set all permissions to read and write.
I watch this video to learn how to post a tweet to Twitter account using PHP. I grab the PHP he give in the video description & add my Application & Access Token details inside the script.
This is my code.
<?php
$the_tweet = 'hello';
// TWITTER API ==================
$consumerKey = 'qu...xF';
$consumerSecret = 'it...hG';
$oAuthToken = '24...ub';
$oAuthSecret = 'oy...d2';
include "OAuth.php";
include "twitteroauth.php";
$tweet = new TwitterOAuth($consumerKey, $consumerSecret, $oAuthToken, $oAuthSecret);
if (isset($the_tweet)) {
$tweetmsg = $the_tweet;
$tweet->post('statuses/update',array('status' => $tweetmsg));
echo "Your message has been sent to Twitter.";
} else {
echo "Your message has not been sent to Twitter.";
}
// END TWITTER API ==================
?>
The github repo for this script is here ('OAuth.php' and 'twitteroauth.php' files inside the 'twitteroauth' folder).
MY PROBLEM
When I run my code with localhost (using MAMP), the tweet successfully sent to my Twitter account.
But, when I put it on my web hosting account and run the code, the tweet not sent to my Twitter account even I still get the success message like below.
How to fix this problem? Why the tweet is not sent and only sent successfully in localhost mode?
This is my Application & Token Access details (it's same like in my code):
Using Facebook's PHP SDK, I was able to get Facebook login working pretty quickly on my website. They simply set a $user variable that can be accessed very easily.
I've had no such luck trying to get Twitter's OAuth login working... quite frankly, their github material is confusing and useless for someone that's relatively new to PHP and web design, not to mention that many of the unofficial examples I've tried working through are just as confusing or are outdated.
I really need some help getting Twitter login working--I mean just a basic example where I click the login button, I authorize my app, and it redirects to a page where it displays the name of the logged in user.
I really appreciate your help.
EDIT I'm aware of the existence of abraham's twitter oauth but it provides close to no instructions whatsoever to get his stuff working.
this one is the basic example of getting the url for authorization and then fetching the user basic info when once u get back from twitter
<?php
session_start();
//add autoload note:do check your file paths in autoload.php
require "ret/autoload.php";
use Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth;
//this code will run when returned from twiter after authentication
if(isset($_SESSION['oauth_token'])){
$oauth_token=$_SESSION['oauth_token'];unset($_SESSION['oauth_token']);
$consumer_key = 'your consumer key';
$consumer_secret = 'your secret key';
$connection = new TwitterOAuth($consumer_key, $consumer_secret);
//necessary to get access token other wise u will not have permision to get user info
$params=array("oauth_verifier" => $_GET['oauth_verifier'],"oauth_token"=>$_GET['oauth_token']);
$access_token = $connection->oauth("oauth/access_token", $params);
//now again create new instance using updated return oauth_token and oauth_token_secret because old one expired if u dont u this u will also get token expired error
$connection = new TwitterOAuth($consumer_key, $consumer_secret,
$access_token['oauth_token'],$access_token['oauth_token_secret']);
$content = $connection->get("account/verify_credentials");
print_r($content);
}
else{
// main startup code
$consumer_key = 'your consumer key';
$consumer_secret = 'your secret key';
//this code will return your valid url which u can use in iframe src to popup or can directly view the page as its happening in this example
$connection = new TwitterOAuth($consumer_key, $consumer_secret);
$temporary_credentials = $connection->oauth('oauth/request_token', array("oauth_callback" =>'http://dev.crm.alifca.com/twitter/index.php'));
$_SESSION['oauth_token']=$temporary_credentials['oauth_token']; $_SESSION['oauth_token_secret']=$temporary_credentials['oauth_token_secret'];$url = $connection->url("oauth/authorize", array("oauth_token" => $temporary_credentials['oauth_token']));
// REDIRECTING TO THE URL
header('Location: ' . $url);
}
?>
I just tried abraham's twitteroauth from github and it seems to work fine for me. This is what I did
git clone https://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth.git
Upload this into your webhost with domain, say, www.example.com
Go to Twitter Apps and register your application. The changes that you need are (assuming that you will use abraham's twitteroauth example hosted at http://www.example.com/twitteroauth)
a) Application Website will be http://www.example.com/twitteroauth
b) Application type will be browser
c) Callback url is http://www.example.com/twitteroauth/callback.php (Callback.php is included in the git source)
Once you do this, you will get the CONSUMER_KEY and CONSUMER_SECRET which you can update in the config.php from the twitteroauth distribution. Also set the callback to be the same as http://www.example.com/twitteroauth/callback.php
Thats it. If you now navigate to http://www.example.com/twitteroauth, you will get a "Signin with Twitter", that will take you to Twitter , authorize the request and get you back to the index.php page.
EDIT:
Example will not work but do not worry. Follow the above steps and upload to server.
Make sure you rename the file from github repository i.e. config-sample.php->config.php
if you want to see a working sample, find it here
Here are some OAuth 1.0A PHP libraries with examples:
tmhOAuth
Oauth-php
Twitter async
Twitter async provides documentation on how to simply sign in a user as you asked for.
Here is the step by step guide to integrate Twitter OAuth API to Web-application using PHP. Please following tutorial.
http://www.smarttutorials.net/sign-in-with-twitter-oauth-api-using-php/
You need to create Twitter App First By going thorugh following URL
https://apps.twitter.com/
Then you need to provide necessary information for the twitter app. Once your provided all the information and then save it. You will get Twitter application Consumer Key and Consumer secret.
Please download the source file from above link, and just replace TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY, TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET and TWITTER_OAUTH_CALLBACK with your Consumer Key (API Key), Consumer Secret (API Secret) and callback URL. Then upload this to your server. Now it will work successfully.
Abraham's Twitteroauth has a working demo here:
https://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth-demo
Following the steps in the demo readme worked for me. In order to run composer on macOS I had to do this after installing it: mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
IMO the demo could be a lot simpler and should be included in the main twitteroauth repo.
I recently had to post new tweets to Twitter via PHP using V2 of their API but couldn’t find any decent examples online that didn’t use V1 or V1.1. I eventually figured it out using the great package TwitterOAuth.
Install this package via composer require abraham/twitteroauth first (or manually) and visit developer.twitter.com, create a new app to get the credentials needed to use the API (see below). Then you can post a tweet based on the code below.
use Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth;
// Connect
$connection = new TwitterOAuth($twitterConsumerKey, // Your API key
$twitterConsumerSecret, // Your API secret key
$twitterOauthAccessToken, // From your app created at https://developer.twitter.com/
$twitterOauthAccessTokenSecret); // From your app created at https://developer.twitter.com/
// Set API version to 2
$connection->setApiVersion('2');
// POST the tweet; the third parameter must be set to true so it is sent as JSON
// See https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/tweets/manage-tweets/api-reference/post-tweets for all options
$response = $connection->post('tweets', ['text' => 'Hello Twitter'], true);
if (isset($response['title']) && $response['title'] == 'Unauthorized') {
// Handle error
} else {
var_dump($response);
/*
object(stdClass)#404 (1) {
["data"]=>
object(stdClass)#397 (2) {
["id"]=>
string(19) "0123456789012345678"
["text"]=>
string(13) "Hello Twitter"
}
}
*/
}
