Hi,
On assignment 109, when I try to add a connection in the automation editor to Twitter, I see this message:
No API keys were found for Twitter, contact robert@apiant.com
I did get some keys for my Twitter app (which I named BSwit_test_app), put them in my empty.keys file, and successfully uploaded them to my keyvault. By the way, I uncommented the account element, and included a / to close out the account element.
Thanks,
Ben
Hi Ben,
OAuth API keys are loaded in the Twitter assembly here:
This assembly is configured to use the OAuth keys for the author of the assembly, which in this case is the admin account. Since the admin account’s keyvault doesn’t contain the API keys, the error is displayed.
The easiest workaround is to make a copy of the Twitter app. For the app to appear in the automation editor, you must also copy at least one trigger or action and associate to your copy of the Twitter app. Then you should be able to connect an account to that Twitter copy in the automation editor.
Sorry, the training assignment was written long before the logic for keyvault access was revised. It’s good to have learned about this, though.
Hi Robert,
OK, I think I made some progress on this. In the Assembly Editor, I saved a copy of the Twitter app as Twitter-Ben. I then placed an Action module in the Assembly, but did not modify the module or connect it to anything else. This assembly auto-saves, but when I try to manually save the assembly, I receive the following message:
"One or more modules do not have a Java implementation. Because this assembly runs on the server, all modules must have Java implementations. Remove the highlighted module(s):
OAuth Workflow (Canned Apps) #4"
Should I add some Java someplace or should I remove the OAuth Workflow (Canned Apps) #4? I don’t know what Java I would add to where, and it seems that the OAuth Workflow (Canned Apps) #4 is necessary.
I did try to Connect an App in the Automation Editor. I search for Twitter-Ben and found it. I selected Twitter-Ben, but I received the following message:
Sorry, this app is not yet available. You can either add the app yourself using the Assembly Writing Editor, or submit your request below.
How should I proceed to complete Assignment 109?
Thanks,
Ben
You don’t need to modify any assembly. Save a copy of the Twitter app assembly with a new name. Then open an existing Twitter action or trigger assembly and save a copy. In the save dialog choose your new Twitter app so that the copied action/trigger is associated with your new Twitter app. Then you should be able to connect in the automation editor.
Hi Robert,
OK! It seems like I completed assignment 109. I got a message in that popup window with a success message.
Would it be possible for you to walk me through, say, posting a new tweet through Apiant somehow? I guess that could be assignment 501?
Thanks,
Ben
There is already a “post a new tweet” action for the baseline Twitter integration you can look at and use in an automation.
Oh, I see. The goal of 501 is to make a new integration.
