Obtaining a previous message within an Apache Camel route - apache-camel

I'm pretty new to camel so perhaps I'm going about this the wrong way but I'm routing messages from one endpoint to another and transforming them on the way. However the next stage is to add authentication to the pipeline. I have a service that tracks authenticated users. My plan is to, in the first stage of the route, to add a filter that checks to see if the current user is authenticated. If the user is not I want to transform the message into an authentication request and send that to my endpoint. All good so far, however, after authentication (if successful) I want to send the original message down the pipeline. Is this something that can be done?
A simplified version of my route would be:
from("seda:in").
filter(method(Authentication.class, "isNotAuthenticated")).
bean(AuthenticationTransformer.class)
to("cxfbean:out")
.end()
.bean(RequestTransformer.class)
.to("cxfbean:out")
The same message would be sent to both transformer beans.

You should preserve the message in the Exchange property setProperty("originalMessage", body()) before transforming it. Afterwards you can access that property using getProperty("originalMessage")

how to implemente IPN PAYPAL with REACTJS/LARAVEL

I need some help with PayPal notification integration (react/laravel).
I need to receive notification to my backend every time a client checkout with PayPal successfully.
Is there any way to implement this?
IPN is very old and nearly deprecated, there is no reason to use it with the current PayPal Checkout.
To implement the current PayPal Checkout, follow that guide and make two routes (url paths) on your server, one for 'Create Order' and one for 'Capture Order'. You can use the Checkout-PHP-SDK for the routes' API calls to PayPal, or your own HTTPS implementation of first getting an access token and then doing the call. Both of these routes should return/output only JSON data (no HTML or text). Inside the 2nd route, when the capture API is successful you should verify the amount was correct and store its resulting payment details in your database (particularly purchase_units[0].payments.captures[0].id, which is the PayPal transaction ID) and perform any necessary business logic (such as sending confirmation emails or reserving product) immediately before forwarding your return JSON to the frontend caller. In the event of an error forward the JSON details of it as well, since the frontend must handle such cases.
Pair those 2 routes with this frontend approval flow: https://developer.paypal.com/demo/checkout/#/pattern/server . (If you need to send any additional data from the client to the server, such as an items array or selected options, add a body parameter to the fetch with a value that is a JSON string or object)
Do not use the deprecated PayPal-PHP-SDK, which is for the deprecated v1/payments API

How to create custom URL in apex to get Json response from third party application

I am sending some perameters to the third party application using rest api In one of the perameter I am sending A URL, This URL will use by third party application to send a json response after 5 or 10 min. My question is how may i create that URL for third party app that they will use to send the response.
If the 3rd party can send HTTP headers too you could send to them the current user's session id. If that user is API enabled (checkbox in profile/permission set) - you could write an Apex REST service that accepts POSTs. They'd call it with Authorization: Bearer <session id here> and it could work very nice. This trailhead might be a good start for you. (or can you contact their developers and maybe agree to make a dedicated user in SF for them so they'd log in under their own credentials and send it back?)
If they cannot send any special headers (it'd have to be unauthenticated connection to SF) - maybe you could make a Visualforce page, expose it as Site and then page's controller can do whatever you need. Maybe you already have something public facing (community?), maybe it'd be totally new... Check https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.206.0.salesforce_platform_portal_implementation_guide.meta/salesforce_platform_portal_implementation_guide/sites_overview.htm
If none of these work for you - does the url have to ping back to Salesforce. Maybe you have control over another server that can accept unauthenticated requests like that and have that one then call SF. Bit like a proxy. You could even set something up fairly easily on Heroku.
Last but not least. This would be extremely stupid but if all else fails - in a sandbox enable Web-to-Case or Web-to-Lead and experiment with these. At the end of the day they give you an url you can POST to and pass a form with data. I think it'd have to be Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded and if you mentioned JSON they're likely to send it as application/json so might not work. If it works - you could maybe save the payload in Description field of Cases (special record type maybe?) and do something with it. I'm seriously not a fan of this.

add query string in Microsoft oauth 2.0 redirect url for token acquisition

I'm currently developing an App using Microsoft LIVE 2.0 API
Currently, I’m using these URLs as my authentication endpoints:
https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize
https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token
However, when I sent the request to the token endpoint with the redirect URL as
https://blabla.com/accept_token.php?api_ver=wave5&csrf=AY7F6O4hF0n8yW3i2O_y6N-ky7zzfULiYV_fttLK1S3JgaeQz2GTk9FOeIGBBH5CvkfkEYCyPOCQCujcrij4KDy2wAMZyXqx24jvwZRtzOv0s9ADGYl1iFtvYtkmgeFmZEY&appdata=%7B%22use_case%22%3A1%2C%22type%22%3A1%2C%22flow%22%3A2%2C%22domain_id%22%3A12%2C%22tracked_params%22%3A%22%5B%5D%22%7D
I got errors saying the reply address does not match the reply addresses configured for the application
For the application, I set the reply address to be https://blabla.com/accept_token.php.
Is it possible that I add some parameters to the url and still make it match?
I'm pretty sure the reply url you send must match exactly the reply url registered on the application, including any query strings.
If there is variable state informaiton you need passed throughout the authentication process, you should use the state variable.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/active-directory-v2-protocols-oauth-code
state
A value included in the request that will also be returned in the token response. It can be a string of any content that you wish. A randomly generated unique value is typically used for preventing cross-site request forgery attacks. The state is also used to encode information about the user's state in the app before the authentication request occurred, such as the page or view they were on.

REST API in MEAN stack, passed id vs id from session

I'm building a web app using MEAN stack.
While building the REST API I see a lot of examples with the following endpoint
/api/contacts/:id
for GET, PUT and DELETE methods.
I did something different, I enabled session in the Express framework and now I can see the user document id (for mongoDB) under req.session.req.payload._id when I do a HTTP request which enables me to access the document.
That why I also don't need to expose the user document id in the URL when I do
a HTTP request.
My question is which method is better and safer to use?
Also, how can I get the user id in Angular to pass to the HTTP request in case I don't use sessions.
And a final one... I also use JWT as middle-ware before calling the function which updates the DB. This gives me some sense of security but wouldn't it be possible for a user with the correct token to do HTTP requests with different ids and by that getting, updating and deleting other users data?
This won't be possible with the current method I'm using (sessions)
When you need to pass the user ID to the endpoints then your client code will need to know that and it's the backend that needs to provide it somehow - either as part of the returned toked or usually as part of the response to a successful login request. The client can store it in a cookie or a local storage to use later.
It is not very practical, though, to have to provide the ID of the user in every route like:
/api/contacts/:id
When your users need to be able to access other users contacts then you may need to use the ID in the route and you may not want to have another set of routes for a situation when the user wants to manipulate his or her own contacts.
What I've seen sometimes done in practice in situations like this is to use a special value for the ID like "me" and have your backend translate all routes like this:
/api/contacts/me
to:
/api/contacts/:id
where :id is the ID of the user who made the request, taken from the session. This can be done with a middleware to substitute the value for all routes at once, and then your normal controllers could use it like it was provided in the route to begin with.

Convert email to http request with App Engine

Is there a way to send http request (to a specific url address) each time i receive email (Google account), with the content of the email received using Google App Engine?
As per your question, it seems that you already have an Incoming Email Handler in your App Engine application.
If the above is true, then in the Incoming Email Handler, you can parse out the message and if it meets your condition for invoking the http request, then you can definitely do that. You can use the URL Fetch service for the same.
One design decision you might want to do is whether you want to keep all your URL Fetch code inside of the incoming Email Handler or you want that to be handled externally via a Task Queue. In that case, I suggest that you can use the Task Queue to create a task when an incoming email comes in to your handler. Then the Task Queue logic can take care of one or more things, which includes invoking the HTTP Service, as you wanted.
