|
| I've just started working with the API. I can retrieve data, but currently
the request I want to make doesn't work. I want to use my C stockroom to
mess around with things before trying to update live inventory, but the status
parameter for inventories returns a code 401 SIGNATURE_INVALID (for any status
value, not just C). Retrieval works totally fine if I use item_type, color_id,
or category_id as the parameter. Any ideas?

Two fields need to be set to put in or take out inventory to/from your stockroom.
The is_stock_room needs to be set to true or false and stock_room_id would be
A, B, or C when true and blank when false.

| I'm not trying to add/remove inventory yet. I'm just trying to retrieve
the contents of the inventory.

Just tested this and it's working OK. Tested a few times with different
stockrooms and worked every time.
A '401 Signature Invalid' error would suggest it's more a problem
with the way you're building the request/making the call... which is odd
if it works OK when using the other parameters.
Only thing I can think of is the sort order of all the parameters.
So the program should have (values omitted)...
oauth_timestamp
oauth_nonce
oauth_version
oauth_signature_method
oauth_consumer_key
oauth_token
status (the stockroom flag)
All of these parameters need to be sorted in to alphabetical order before being
encoded and added to the URL. The 3 parameters that work all come before 'oauth'
alphabetically, but 'status' comes after. Your program may not have
sorting (or 'manual sorting', simply based on the order the parameters
are written in the code).

| yep, that's what did it. i was adding the method parameters and then the
authorization parameters when building the signature instead of all of them together.
thanks!
