Yammer - How to post via api to activity stream? (php) - php

Question

I am able to "GET" the activity stream but not "POST" to it. It seems its a technical error.
This is the code which works for getting the activity stream:
function getActivityStream()
{
$as=$this->request('https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/streams/activities.json');
var_dump($as);
}
function request($url, $data = array())
{
if (empty($this->oatoken)) $this->getAccessToken();
$headers = array();
$headers[] = "Authorization: Bearer " . $this->oatoken['token'];
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url . '?' . http_build_query($data) );
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$output = curl_exec($ch);
return json_decode($output);
}
ok so that works fine...
the code below, returns a Yammer "oops this page could not be found" message:
function putActivityStream()
{
$data=array('type'=>'text', 'text'=>'hello from api test call');
$json=json_encode($data);
$res=$this->post('streams/activites.json',$json);
}
function post($resource, $data)
{
if (empty($this->oatoken)) $this->getAccessToken();
$ch = curl_init();
$headers = array();
$headers[] = "Authorization: Bearer " . $this->oatoken['token'];
$headers[]='Content-Type: application/json';
$url = 'https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/' . $resource;
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
return $response;
}
One of the examples from:
http://developer.yammer.com/api/streams.html
POST https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/streams/activities.json
Requests must be content-type: application/json.
{
"type": "text",
"text": "The build is broken."
}

You're going to kick yourself. You have a typo in your code. :)
Change:
$res=$this->post('streams/activites.json',$json);
to
$res=$this->post('streams/activities.json',$json);
Simples.
