@engram-design Any news on the progress of the OAuth implementation?

[pieterjandebruyne]

Bump, Is it yet possible to import from google sheets API using OAuth ?

Any news on this?

I have a use case for this with Zoom's API which requires oauth2. I could probably hack something together with OAuth 2.0 Client and point FeedMe to a template.

Bumpety Bump - this would be awesome!

I am currently in the situation in a project I took on. It relies on a timed airtable import. Airtable deprecated their api-key based API and forces oAuth (Airtable Deprecation Notice). I cannot see a way to around this.

[dmatthams]

Tokens are replaced with Personal Access Tokens so you do not have to use oAuth. You may however need to put the key in an Authorization header rather than as a query string param. I'm going to be doing this soon also 😉

Hey, thanks for the quick replies!

@dmatthams how would I do that in feed-me? Do you know that? Sorry I am out of my water here. I saw that with curl it is really easy (curl "https://api.airtable.com/..." \ -H "Authorization: Bearer PERSONAL_TOKEN". But I do not know how to make feed-me pass this bearer along.

@siebird, thanks a lot! If I do not find a more vanilla way, I will go that route.

Your feed-me.php (see the docs) will look something like:

<?php

return [
    '*' => [
        'feedOptions' => [
            '1' => [
                'feedUrl' => 'https://specialurl.io/feed.json',
                'requestOptions' => [
                    'headers' => [
                        'Authorization', 'Bearer YOUR_TOKEN'
                    ],
                ],
            ]
        ],
    ]
];

Where '1' is the ID of your feed.

[maxstrebel]

Oh, nevermind, I found a way! You can set request options in a /config/feed-me.php file and pass the bearer there.

<?php

return [
    'feedOptions' => [
        '5' => [
            'requestOptions' => [
                    'headers' => [
                        'Authorization' => 'Bearer ' . getenv('AIRTABLE_BEARER_TOKEN'),
                        'Accept' => 'application/json',
                    ]
            ],
        ]
    ]
];

Thanks so much for your help. Works great.
