I can't figure out where to create an API Key 3.x - Updated GitHub Location

Keys are no longer supported in 3.x look into using something like oauth.

No, have a look at the 3.x branch

https://github.com/workhabitinc/drupal-ios-sdk/tree/7.x-3.x

https://github.com/workhabitinc/drupal-ios-sdk-example/tree/6.x-3.x

Also, you should be using the D7 code thats here on drupal.org

git clone --branch 7.x-3.x kylebrowning@git.drupal.org:project/services.git

And whats your issue then?

Hrmm, Make sure you are using the 7.x versino that exists on the website.

Which version of rest_server_plist are you using?

Try this one.

I just tested it and it worked fine, https://skitch.com/kylebrowning/r2a6j/ios-simulator-ipad-ios-4.3-8f190

I dont think so, Whats the timestam of your 7.x services.info?

Yeah thats extremely outdated, http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/services-7.x-3.x-dev.tar.gz try this?

Thats a permissoins issue, make sure anonymous can do a user get :P

Also try logging in with admin, although im not 100% sure if the 7.x-3.x version persists the login between tabs, an easy fix is close and restart the simulator after logging in.

Administer users

Give that perm to anonymous, when i turn that off, I get the same error, when i turn it back on it works.

Im not saying you need to do that for a live app. Im jsut trying to show you that its a permissions issue. If you want to make authenticated calls, thats easy to do, just login with a user that has that permission.

Heres a video showing it working, im not sure what else to say unless you expose your API so that I can make calls to it and try and debug the issue.

Authentication needed means your call is not passing permissions, So the calls to the API are working, you just need to figure out why it doesnt think you're authenticated. and no, the code in my app, all I changed was the Domain URL.

#define DRUPAL_API_KEY  @"4b2d7ef98d720386e0d2022842847404"
#define DRUPAL_SERVICES_URL  @"http://test/test"
#define DRUPAL_URL  @"http://test/"
#define DRUPAL_DOMAIN @"testing" 

Heres my endpoint export

Are you able to login with user.login?

Ok so when you login, and then try to do a node get, what happens? Does that user have the Access Content permission?

So what happens when you do a node get?

Not sure what to tell you. If you get the server up somewhere that I can point my App to it, I can see if its your server, or the app. But as it stands right now, its working for me, as you can clearly see in the video.

I also have the same error: authentication needed, and I have donwloaded the most updated services and plist support, not sure why it happens... I can get node 1 without logging in as well.

Same here. latest versions including the dev of services. Response status is a 401 Unauthorized: Missing required argument username. Other includes an ASIHTTP requesterrordomain code=3 "Authentication needed"

Communication with Drupal end seems to work with unauthenticated requests (requesting nodes).

Okay found the error. Its actually in the DIOSuser.m file of the drupal-ios-sdk.

Inside loginWithUsername: the forKey:@"name" and forKey:@"pass" should be changed to "username" and "password" as shown below:

- (NSDictionary *) loginWithUsername:(NSString*)userName andPassword:(NSString*)password {
[self setMethod:@"user.login"];
[self setMethodUrl:@"user/login"];
[self addParam:userName forKey:@"username"];
[self addParam:password forKey:@"password"];
[self runMethod];
return [self connResult];
}

Hope this helps someone.

Also on a side note the ios-sdk project page looks like a typo, it says to updated DIOSConnect.h file with API keys and domain updates but its the DIOSConfig.h file

Kunani, im not sure which version of the DRupal iOS SDK you are using, but in all the latest branches, its using username and password not name or pass, are you sure you have the latest code? This was fixed on Feb 7th, https://github.com/workhabitinc/drupal-ios-sdk/commit/139454fd8d1632ad9e...

Yes I think we all have downloaded the tree with @"user/login" error, actually github offer 7.x-3.x-1.0b download in https://github.com/workhabitinc/drupal-ios-sdk/tree/ but that is really outdated (10 Nov 2010), I will try download the updated one in https://github.com/workhabitinc/drupal-ios-sdk/tree/7.x-3.x and see what will happen, thanks Kunani and kylebrowning!!

Ahh Robotcake, thanks for pointing me to that, I forgot i tagged those releases. Release 1.1b is out!

Just so that everyone knows, Kyle has reorganized the git repo so, there are no longer 7.x-3x or 6.x-3.x etc. The latest version is here:
https://github.com/workhabitinc/drupal-ios-sdk/tree/

Did not mean to update title!
