Great post, tested on different browsers, but Chrome doesn't show contacts.... :(( , why?

I may have done something wrong.
When i test on my server i get: Invalid Token.
get_request_token is not responding with a token.
Please, help

Hi
I can not make it work.
I got invalid token.
get_request_token is not returning a token.
What can i do?

Hello everyone,
when i hosted this example on my site, i got a "Invalid Token." response from Google with the URL as https://www.google.com/accounts/OAuthAuthorizeToken?oauth_token=

I'm havin the same problem!
invalid...foreach
$contacts= $getcontact_access->callcontact($oauth, $access_token, $access_token_secret, false, true,$emails_count);
it always return the NULL.
any one now why...?

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach()
I can help to fix the error...

Open GmailOath.php
navigate to GetContacts function(it is at the end of the file) and look for
$params['max-results'] = '500';

change that value to
$params['max-results'] = '99999';
save the file.
Go to ur browser preference and clear the cookies that your website has saved on the local system.
Then try running it again!
Vola!!! it works! (does it?). :)

Hey, could you please answer my question, why every browser returns data, but Chrome doesn't?

What about email sending limits? Even if you use Google Apps account, you can only send 500 emails at a time (what a bout contact lists with hundreds of emails)?

How to know if the user denied the application?

really really nice application !! Thaaaaaaaaaank you!

but i want to know how can load google access page in popup? :)

OK here is the solution for the datetime problem:

function get_linkedin_current_time() {
date_default_timezone_set("America/Los_Angeles");

$ch = curl_init("http://api.linkedin.com");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, true);

$response = curl_exec($ch);
foreach(explode("\r\n", $response) as $line) {
if(substr($line, 0, 5) == "Date:") {
return strtotime(trim(substr($line, 5)));
}
}

return -1;
}

printf("Local time deviates from LinkedIn time by: %d seconds", get_linkedin_current_time() - time());

use the code above to learn time difference between your server and linkedin server (google server will be the almost same) than in GmailOauth.php change every time function to "time()+2175"(seconds you found using the above function)

how can get OAuth consumer key

hi sri I m getting
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/awebthou/public_html/gmail/Contacts.php on line 20

Please help me

Hi,

This is a nice post. But there is an quick authentication method implemented using Gmail OAuth itself @ http://www.ecstasyforum.com. This needs almost 10% of serverside coding that fetches user's details such as email, picture URL, name,gender.

Implementation guided by http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/OAuth2Login.html

Problme in downloading GmailOath.php

Is there any way to retrieve emails as well using OAuth, i have used IMAP but it doesn't provide complete functionality i want and also don't shows the message body for emails marked as important ???

YOU ARE MAYBE HAVING THE FOREACH because you are redirecting the callback with an including file where the oauth_token was created so when the callback file try to read the session is not the same that google was already authorized so $contacts its empty thats why

There is a problem if i have imported contacts and i refresh the page then it gives error of Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach(). Due you have any idea, how to solve it.

Its working fine....

Import email and name
--------------------------------

foreach($contacts as $k => $a)
{
$final = end($contacts[$k]);

foreach($final as $email)
{
echo $email["address"] ."
";
echo $name = end($contacts[$k]["title"]);

Alright since Mr Srinivas is too busy to get back to all of us with the errors mentioned here, I've done us all a favour by figuring out what went wrong in the foreach error.

This is the original code in Contacts.php:

$contacts= $getcontact_access->GetContacts($oauth, $access_token, $access_token_secret, false, true,$emails_count);
foreach($contacts as $k => $a)
{
$final = end($contacts[$k]);
foreach($final as $email)
{
echo $email["address"] ."
";
}
}

Now here's the change in the code that I edited:

$contacts= $getcontact_access->GetContacts($oauth, $access_token, $access_token_secret, false, true,$emails_count);
$cont=$contacts;
foreach($contacts as $k => $a)
{
$final = end($contacts[$k]);
foreach($final as $email)
{
echo $email["address"] ."
";
$contacts=$cont;
}
}

Basically, the $contacts was getting over-written in with each loop. $cont serves as a backup for $contacts and every time the email id is printed, the $contacts variable will be reinitialized with the original value.

Long story short, it works! You might have to close your browser, refresh a few times and clear your cache to clear the temp memory. It'll work after that!

Cheers!

hi, thanks very much for this post! extremely useful!!! anthony

Hi,

Is there any way in which user can select the contacts and import the selected contacts only ?

Thanks in Advance.

solve for foreach proplem
rfc3986_decode($_GET['oauth_token']);
echo "Request token :".$request_token;
echo "
";

//$request_token='k57356v';
$request_token_secret=$oauth->rfc3986_decode($_SESSION['oauth_token_secret']);
echo "Request token secret :".$request_token_secret;
echo "
";

//$oauth_verifier= 'pkzkns';
$oauth_verifier= $oauth->rfc3986_decode($_GET['oauth_verifier']);
echo "Request token verifier :".$oauth_verifier;
echo "
";

echo "access token info
";

$retarr = $getcontact_access->get_access_token($oauth,
$request_token, $request_token_secret,
$oauth_verifier, false, true, true);

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

thanks for good post but i have one issue if user denied the permission so api is not redirecting to my site url. May u plz help me?

Thanks, it help alot.

want Gmail and twitter invitation like thefancy.com can anybody please help me I want to use it in leadconcept.com/wishthing. Gmail popup opens but it dosent work anymore. :(
Plz guid me or email me the solution.

Thank you so much for this wonderful help.. I cannot download source code yet but I got GmailOath.php file here..

https://code.google.com/p/rspsms/source/browse/trunk/system/plugins/GmailContacts/GmailOath.php?r=11

Thanks again and its working for me :)

I tried many other solutions, mainly as modules, but neither worked. Thanks for this solution that works!

I have noticed that this works pretty well on my local machine but when you put this inside a framework the contacts API results nothing.

I found another solution which is CURL and oAuth2.0 based http://25labs.com/import-gmail-or-google-contacts-using-google-contacts-data-api-3-0-and-oauth-2-0-in-php/

I hope this will help someone looking to import gmail contact (especially having issues with this api) for rest this API works like charm.

Cheers.

I think the main problem for the "foreach", is that we don't get back the request_token_secret. If you print the strings, you will see what I am talking about. Just add this before the "foreach" and try it:

echo "request token:$request_token
";
echo "request token secret:$request_token_secret
";
echo "oauth verifier:$oauth_verifier
";
echo "access token:$access_token
";
echo "access token secret:$access_token_secret
";

You will see that only the request_token and the oauth_verifier are not empty.

So the question is:
HOW CAN I GET THE REQUEST_TOKEN_SECRET?

Its working fine....

Import email and name
--------------------------------

foreach($contacts as $k => $a)
{
$final = end($contacts[$k]);

foreach($final as $email)
{
echo $email["address"] ."
";
echo $name = end($contacts[$k]["title"]);



}
}
