A request for a list of products comes to my server. When I needed to do filtering, I ran into a problem that I couldn’t pass information from the http request to the find method so that it would return information from the nested object as well.
The database structure is like this:
enter image description here
I get the number of records and the page by query parameters. Maybe use json somehow? The experience is very small... I would be glad for any advice. You can also transfer the structure to the database and get rid of nesting, but you really don’t want to.

Not quite sure if this has been asked. In Salesforce, I can see within the object explorer and within the fields and relationships, all entries however if I perform in postman a:
https://eu40.salesforce.com/services/data/v50.0/sobjects/amazonconnect__AC_ContactTraceRecord__c/describe
and copy the results within a test document and look for a particular field I cannot find it. Is there a security setting within the fields from being accessed though a rest api?
Thanks,
the api user does not seem to have enough rights. Add the apiuser as an AC_Administrator and give it a try.
I am executing a search operation for people search using Microsoft Graph Endpoint - https://graph.microsoft.com/V1.0/users.
The question I have is - I am able to get all the textual data I need, but is there a way to get photo for each returned user in a single call?. If there are 10 users returned in the previous search, executing 10 different operations to get the photos based on each user's id would be a challenge.
It isn't possible to fetch both user's data and photo in a single call since they are different data types (application/json vs image/jpeg).
Marc is spot on here. However you should also check out the new batching feature (note this is still in /beta) which would allow you to get up to 5 photos in one request round-trip. See https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/docs/concepts/json_batching. We'd love to get your feedback on this.
I have been working on OpenTSDB from past one month. I was able to create metrics and store data in the metrics. What I would like to know is..does openTSDB provide any means to view the data stored for a particular metric. Let us say I have created a metric named "EmployeeDetails" and this metric contains details of 2 employees. Now how to view those two employee details...Can anyone suggest me?
Regards
VHC
You can use the default web interface at http://<opentsdb-host>:<port-default-4242> and query for the time series by providing the metric name, time frame and a set of tags to filter on.
Here are alternatives https://github.com/OpenTSDB/opentsdb/wiki/Alternative-front-ends
And not to mention, you can of course use OpenTSDB APIs to retrieve time series data in JSON - http://opentsdb.net/docs/build/html/api_http/query/index.html
You can able to view the TSDB Data in HTTP API:
Using any Rest API CLient like postman or any,
API QUERY:
http://localhost:port/api/query?start=&m=sum:EmployeeDetails
For more details about REST API below.,

Hope this really helpful for you
I am writing a web app and I am trying to improve the performance of search/displaying results. I am relatively new to programming this sort of thing, so I apologize in advance if these are simple questions/concepts.
Right now I have a database of ~20,000 sites, each with properties, and I have a search form that (for now) just asks the database to pull all sites within a set distance (for this example, say 50km). I have put the data into an index and use the Search API to find sites.
I am noticing that the database search takes ~2-3 seconds to:
1) Search the index
2) Get a list of key names (this is stored in the search index)
3) Using key names, pull from datastore (in a loop) and extract data properties to be displayed to the user
4) Transmit data to the user via jinja template variables
This is also only getting 20 results (the default maximum for a Search API query.. I haven't implemented cursors here yet, although I will have to).
For whatever reason, it feels quite slow.. I am wondering what websites do to make the process seem faster. Do they implement some kind of "asynchronous" search, where a page loads while in the background the search/data pulls are processed, and then subsequently shown to the user...?
Are there "standard" ways of performing searches here where the processing/loading feels seamless to the user?
Thanks.

Would doing something like just passing a "query ID" via the page work, and then using AJAX to get data from the datastore via JSON work? Like... can app engine redirect the user to the final page, pass in only a "query ID", and then search in the meantime, and then once the data is ready, pass the information the user via JSON?
Make sure you are getting entities from the datastore in parallel. Since you already have the key names, you just have to pass your list of keys to the appropriate method.
For db:
MyModel.get_by_key_name(key_names)
For ndb:
ndb.get_multi([ndb.Key.from_path('MyModel', key_name) for key_name in key_names])
If you needed to do datastore queries, you could enable parallel fetches with the query.run (db) and query.fetch_async (ndb) methods.
I'm trying to write an app on the SalesForce platform that can pull a list of contacts from a report and send them to a web service (say to send them an email or SMS)
The only way I can seem to find to do this is to add the report results to a newly created campaign, and then access that campaign. This seems like the long way around.
Every post I read online says you can't access the reports through Apex, however most or all of these posts were written before Version 20 of the API was released last month, which introduced a new report object. I can now programmatically access info about a report (Such as the date last run etc) but I still can't seem to find a way to access the result data contained in that report.
Does anyone know if there's a way to do that?
After much research into it, I've discovered the only way to do this at the moment is indeed to scrape the CSV document. I would guess that Conga etc are using exactly this method.
We've been doing this for a while now, and it works. The only caveats are:
Salesforce username / password /
security token has to be shared to
the app connecting. If the password
changes (and by default it is changed
every 30 days or so) the token also
changes and must be re-entered.
You have to know the host of the account, which can be difficult to
get right. For instance while most european accounts would use emea.salesforce.com to access CSV, our account uses na7 (North America 7) even though we're located in
ireland. I'm currently sending the page host to the app and parsing it
to calculate the correct subdomain to use, but I think there has to be a
better way to do this.
Salesforce really needs to sort this out by supplying an API call which allows custom report results to be exported on the fly and allowing us to use OAuth to connect to it. But of course, this is unlikely to happen.
In the SalesforceSpring 11 update, it seems you can obtain more informations about the Reports:
As stated in the API for Report and ReportType, you can access via Apex the fields used in the query by the Report, reading the field "columns", as well as the field used to represent the filters called "filter".
Iterating through this objects, should allow you to build a String representing the same query of the Report. After building that string you can make a dynamic query with a Database.query(..) call.
It seems to be a little messy, but should work.. (NOT TESTED YET!)
As header states, this works only with Custom Reports!
Just to clarify for fellow rookies who will find this, when the question was asked you could access your report data programatically, but you had to use some hacky, error prone methods.
This is all fixed, you can now access your reports via the API as of Winter '14.

Go to town on those custom dashboards etc. Cross posted from the Salesforce Stack Exchange - https://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/337/can-report-data-be-accessed-programatically/
But Conga (appextremes) do this in their QuickMerge product, where the user specifies the report Id, and the apex script on the page runs the report to extract the results for a mail merge operation.
the v20.0 API added metadata about the reports, but no way to actually run the report and obtain the results. If this is a standard report, or a report you've defined, you can work out the equivalent SOQL query for your report and run that, but if its an end user defined report, there's no way to do this.
