I have some steps in my logic apps eg Parse JSON. If they fail, I can see the reason for the failure when I open the step in logic apps eg string instead of integer.
How can I log these error messages in my Azure storage account.
The dynamic content dialogue box doesn't specify error messages.
I have created a storage account, created files, populated them with a string and put them into the storage account. I just need to get hold of the error message.
I will be processing JSON from HTTP requests. If the JSON is invalid ie does not conform to the expected schema, I need the error logged, so people can query it with the provider of the data.
If you just want to log the runs error message, it is not necessary to be so troublesome. You could just use outputs to implement it.
You set the create blob action run after parse json action fails, the blob content could be outputs('Parse_JSON')['errors'], if just want to get the error message it should be outputs('Parse_JSON')['errors'][0]['message'].

Data Not Available
The data you were trying to access could not be found. It may be due to another user deleting the data or a system error. If you know the data is not deleted but cannot access it, please look at our support page.
This is sort of an extension of this question here. I have a policy that calls a REST API. The API returns an error message and this message needs to be localized.
One way is to of course get the API to return a localized message, but is there a way for the CustomPolicy itself to localize the error code? According to the CustomPolicy Docs, a REST API can send an error code along with the Conflict error code. Our thinking was to use this error code as a key and select a localized message (from the messageValue enum mentioned in the answer in the link).
However, we can't seem to capture/handle the error data returned by the API. The Policy seems to handle error codes by itself and we would like to know if it is possible to inject localized exception/error messages from the policy itself.
Thanks in advance!
Edit: A little more information about the setup. We have a TechnicalProfile that has a DisplayWidget and a ValidationTechnicalProfile. The DisplayWidget is used for entering & verifying the user's phone/email and the ValidationTechnicalProfile makes the final call to the RestAPI with all the user's information to register him/her. This RestAPI call output is what we want to localize.
The suggestion in the linked SO question, from what I understand, is that we integrate another DisplayClaim (that references an enum) in the DisplayWidget, and depending on the ErrorCode returned by the call, change it to display the appropriate code. However, as per my understanding, this would also require editing the API to return only 200 along with a code. This code would indicate the true nature of the result - success or a code for one of the enums to be displayed.
Our aim therefore is to check if there is a way to follow the Policy's flow (disrupt the SignUp/SignIn process) but at the same time localize the API's displayed response.
We managed to find a workaround to this, so I'm posting this here for anyone else who might be interested in this.
Our restriction for localizations was the fact that used Phrase to manage our translations and wanted the CustomPolicy specific translations all in one place. Our CD workflow was as follows:
PolicyCommit -> Build Variable Replacement through PS -> Release Variable Replacement and localized strings replacement through PS & Policy Uploads
Barring the policy from localizing the APIs response, we had the following options to achieve this:
Sending the language to the API and having the API return the appropriate error message
in the appropriate language. We were reluctant to follow this because of a multitude of reasons, but mostly because we would also have to handle different regions, etc. in the API - something the policy does by itself.
We actually had only one API that we called, and also only two error messages that were used. Hence we created an enum with the two error messages that would be localized. We then used a chain of InputClaimsTransformations that did the following:
Repeat Steps 1 through 3 for all the errors
1. CreateStringClaim (Create ClaimTypes for each of the error codes, holding the index of the error code in the enum)
2. GetMappedValueFromLocalizedCollection (Make the localized enum choose and hold the value of the required error code)
3. AddItemToStringCollection (Add the localized error from the enum to a StringCollection)
4. GenerateJson (Add the error codes StringCollection to the JSON payload to be sent to the API)
This way, the policy performed the localization for all the errors and we sent them along with the request to the API. The API, when an error occurred, picked one of the error messages from the policy and sent it back. This method was for us, because of our CD structure and Phrase integration, much easier than actually having the translations in a file hosted on the cloud to be accessed by the API.
Hope this helps someone; I can also add code in case someone needs it :)
I am using Standard AppEngine (Java) to develop a webservice. It seems that every request made to the service is automatically logged with stackdriver as a "request log", and each "request log" has multiple "application logs" attached to it .
I need to somehow pass in some additional information to be logged in stackdriver (like say the username of the person who made the request), and which can be later on extracted or scraped from stackdriver through a script.
I had 2 questions regarding this :
Is there anyway, I can attach this additional information to the request log ?
If I log the additional information as a normal log message which appears in the application log, is there a way to attach a distinguishing tag/label to the message, which will help me extract it easily and reliably ? (rather than relying on finding patterns in the text of the message itself)
1- Yes, you can add additional info as the application logs to the request log as it shows at: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/logs;
2- Looks you can add the tag or label to the log: https://cloud.google.com/logging/docs/api/tasks/creating-logs#writing_log_entries
Please presume that I do not know anything about any of the things I will be mentioning because I really do not.
Most OpenData sites have the possibility of exporting the presented file either in for example .csv or .json formats (Example). They also always have an API tab (Example API).
I presume using the API would mean that if the data is updated you would receive the change whereas exporting it as .csv would mean the content will not be changed anymore.
My questions is: how does one use this API code to display the same table one would get when exporting a .csv file.
Would you use a database to extract this information? What kind of database and how do you link the API to the database?
I presume using the API would mean that if the data is updated you
would receive the change whereas exporting it as .csv would mean the

You are correct in the sense that, if you download the csv to your computer, that csv file won't be updated any more.
An API is something you would call - in this case, you can call the API, saying "Hey, do you have the latest data on xxx?", and you will be given back the latest information about what you have asked. This does not mean though, that this site will notify you when there's a new update - you will have to keep calling the API (every hour, every day etc) to see if there are any changes.
My questions is: how does one use this API code to display the same
table one would get when exporting a .csv file.
You would:
Call the API from a server code, or a cloud service
Let the server code or cloud service decipher (or "Parse") the response
Use the deciphered response to create a table made out of HTML, or to place it into a database
Would you use a database to extract this information? What kind of
database and how do you link the API to the database?
You wouldn't necessarily need a database to extract information, although a database would be nice to place the final data inside.
You would first need some sort of way to "call the REST API". There are many ways to do this - using Shell Script, using Python, using Excel VBA etc.
I understand this is hard to visualize, so here is an example of step 1, where you can retrieve information.
Try placing in the below URL (taken from the site you showed us) in your address bar of your Chrome browser, and hit enter
http://opendata.brussels.be/api/records/1.0/search/?dataset=associations-clubs-sportifs
See how it gives back a lot of text with many brackets and commas? You've basically asked the site to give you some data, and this is the response they gave back (different browsers work differently - IE asks you to download the response as a .json file). You've basically called an API.
To see this data more cleanly, open your developer tools of your Chrome browser, and enter the following JavaScript code
var url = 'http://opendata.brussels.be/api/records/1.0/search/?dataset=associations-clubs-sportifs';
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open('GET', url);
xhr.setRequestHeader('X-Requested-With', 'XMLHttpRequest');
xhr.onload = function() {
if (xhr.status === 200) {
// success
console.log(JSON.parse(xhr.responseText));
} else {
// error
console.log(JSON.parse(xhr.responseText));
}
};
xhr.send();
When you hit enter, a response will come back, stating "Object". If you click through the arrows, you can see this is a cleaner version of the data we just saw - more human readable.
In this case, I used JavaScript to retrieve the data, but you can use whatever code you want. You could proceed to use JavaScript to decipher the data, manipulate it, and push it into a database.
kintone is an online cloud database where you can customize it to run JavaScript codes, and have it store the data in their database, so you'll have the data stored online like in the below image. This is just one example of a database you can use.
There are other cloud services which allow you to connect API end points of different services with each other, like IFTTT and Zapier, but I'm not sure if they connect with open data.
The page you linked to shows that the API returns values as a JSON object. To access the data you can just send an appropriate http request and the response will be the requested data as a JSON. You can send requests like that over your browser if you want to.
Most languages allow JSON objects to be manipulated pro grammatically if you need to do work on the data.
Restful APIs publish model is "request and publish". Wen you request data via an API endpoint, you would receive response strings in JSON objects, CSV tables or XML.
The publisher, in this case Opendata.brussel.be would update their database on regular basis and publish the results via an API endpoint.
If you want to download the table as a relational data table in a CSV file, you'd need to parse the JSON objects into relational tables. This can be tricky since each JSON response string can vary in their paths.
There're several ways to do it. You can either write scripts to flatten the JSON objects or use a tool to parse and flatten the objects for you.
I use a tool called Acho to turn API endpoints into CSV files. It would parse almost all API endpoints through the parameters and even configure for multiple requests, such as iterative and recursive requests.

In the current version of Salesforce,
IF I have multiple Validation Rules Error message defined on one object
AND IF these rules are not respected when clicking on Save
THEN I get multiple error messages (all at once).
This is what I would like to have when using API calls.
As it is now, I am only getting error messages one by one via API calls. Is there any way to display all error messages at once, as it is in the Salesforce interface?
No, currently API processing stops at the first error and report thats, there's no way to have to report all the errors.
