Testing API w/ Trial Account http://developer.cisco.com/c/message_boards/find_thread?p_l_id=&threadId=2420134 2013-05-25T06:13:40Z 2013-05-25T06:13:40Z Hashir Baqai http://developer.cisco.com/c/message_boards/find_message?p_l_id=&messageId=3084138 2011-02-21T22:23:29Z 2011-02-21T22:23:29Z

The xfactor Show and Share trial site is not meant for testing API calls.

I also have problems with trial account. I'm developing application which uploads video file to Cisco Show & Share so I started playing with DMS API Tester tool. It works fine for getPublicCategories and getUserDetails requests but when I try addContent or getAccessTicket it returns HTTP status code 403. The same thing happens when I do it manually using curl tool. See below for sample conversation with Show & Share server. Does it mean that upload through DMS API is not available on trial account or maybe I'm doing something wrong? * About to connect() to snssns3.xfactorcom.com port 8443 * Trying 4.79.155.42... connected * Connected to snssns3.xfactorcom.com (4.79.155.42) port 8443 * successfully set certificate verify locations: * CAfile: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt CApath: none * SSLv2, Client hello (1): SSLv3, TLS handshake, Server hello (2): SSLv3, TLS handshake, CERT (11): SSLv3, TLS handshake, Server key exchange (12): SSLv3, TLS handshake, Server finished (14): SSLv3, TLS handshake, Client key exchange (16): SSLv3, TLS change cipher, Client hello (1): SSLv3, TLS handshake, Finished (20): SSLv3, TLS change cipher, Client hello (1): SSLv3, TLS handshake, Finished (20): SSL connection using EDH-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA * Server certificate: * subject: /C=US/postalCode=07606/ST=NJ/L=South Hackensack/streetAddress=3 Empire Blvd./O=X-Factor Communications/OU=IT/OU=Secure Link SSL/CN=snssns3.xfactorcom.com * start date: 2010-04-29 00:00:00 GMT * expire date: 2011-04-29 23:59:59 GMT * subjectAltName: snssns3.xfactorcom.com matched * issuer: /C=US/O=Network Solutions L.L.C./CN=Network Solutions Certificate Authority * SSL certificate verify ok. * Server auth using Basic with user '***' > POST /vportal/services/xml/api HTTP/1.1 > Authorization: Basic *** > User-Agent: curl/7.15.5 (i686-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.15.5 OpenSSL/0.9.8b zlib/1.2.3 libidn/0.6.5 > Host: snssns3.xfactorcom.com:8443 > Accept: */* > Content-type: application/xml > Content-Length: 639 > > <xml-fragment xmlns:vp="http://model.data.core.vportal.cisco.com/vp_ns"> > <vp:vportal> > <vportal_id>1</vportal_id> > </vp:vportal> > <vp:vprequest> > <query>addContent</query> > </vp:vprequest> > <vp:vpcontent> > <title>Title 1</title> > <description>Description 1</description> > <contentattribute> > <key>addedDate</key> > <value>1209407608</value> > <namespace>com.cisco.vportal.1</namespace> > </contentattribute> > <live>false</live> > <state> > <contentstate>DRAFT</contentstate> > </state> > </vp:vpcontent> > </xml-fragment> < HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden < Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 < errorMsg: Access Forbidden < Content-Type: text/xml < Content-Length: 0 < Date: Sun, 20 Feb 2011 15:08:48 GMT * Connection #0 to host snssns3.xfactorcom.com left intact * Closing connection #0 * SSLv3, TLS alert, Client hello (1):

I've successfully used addContent using my own code, so I'm considering this a tool issue until I run into a query type that fails.

Hi Joe,   May I ask what the URL of the server you have the trial account on?  We are directly in charge of the trial accounts, but we'll look into this for you.   - Joe Y. Digital Media Systems

I'm looking at writing a component to allow publishing of content to Show and Share.  I'd like to be able to test as I go.  I requested a trial account and downloaded the DMS API Tester.  I followed the instructions in the API documentation under "Checking the API Status".  I get a HTTP Status of 500 on the response.  Should I consider this a problem with the DMS API Tester or is the API not supposed to work with trial accounts?  Thanks.
