Elgg API
By tobi
I am trying to use the elgg api.
When I call the method in a browser directly, everything is fine
(http://server.de/services/api/rest/xml/?method=ag_makeVideo&user=186&w=b074f9fb61f1a8e9874c330c31564aea&ytid=PLpFNVZEo5I&duration=4&title=Cover&description=Mit+Text)
but when I try to call this method in a script from another Server using file_get_contents, something like that returns:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<elgg>
<status type="integer">-1</status>
<message type="string">Unable to save new object's base entity information!</message>
</elgg>
What's wrong here?

You must log in to post replies.Here is the solution:
I have added the following to the api function
function doSomeApiStuff($id){
$ignore = elgg_set_ignore_access(true);
//here my code
elgg_set_ignore_access($ignore);
}
idea comes from
