What is correct way to retrieve users subscriptions?

[MaksymSBW]

User should be subscribed to only 'activities' collection.

However tries to get list of his subscriptions fail:

1) call to GET /1/user/-/apiSubscriptions/xxxxxxx.json returns 403 'Forbidden. This application does not have permission to access nutrition data....'

2) call to GET /1/user/-/activities/apiSubscriptions/xxxxxx.json returns 405 'Method Not Allowed'

Is there any valid way to know if user is subscribed or not?

Thanks,

Maksym

@MaksymSBW Your GET request should look like this:

GET /1/user/-/{collection-path}/apiSubscriptions.json

If you're doing GET /1/user/-/apiSubscriptions.json --> that's for all of them at once. So if a user didn't grant access to a particular scope (nutrition in this case), then you'll get a 403.

Thanks for prompt response.

So if I understand correctly it is not possible to get all subscriptions that are allowed for our app for a user? As I don't know what scopes user allowed and what he opted out for my app, right?

And what about second part? Why can't I get a status of specific subscription that should be definitely allowed?

@MaksymSBW To get all subscriptions, a user has to have all scopes allowed, otherwise the call results in a 403. There isn't a way to call all subscriptions specific to your app unless you call them individually.

I'm not sure what you mean by "definitely allowed" because a user can select/deselect whatever scopes they want. If you're trying to look at a particular collection, then you use:

GET /1/user/-/{collection-path}/apiSubscriptions.json

@AndrewFitbit, never mind, I found that we are calling subscriptions endpoint incorrectly, we were appending userID to the path.

Now everything works.

Thanks.
