Hi folks,
This API, as it has been designed, will no longer serve anyone outside of Canela. Our email provider, SendGrid, requires customers to update our profiles for security reasons. The changes broke our use of the API as well.
One future solution is for us to allow all of you to use your own SendGird API key. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
Hello everyone. We are experiencing an outage in the San Francisco region. We believe the issue is due to our cloud provider being unable to resolve DNS requests. They are working on the issue.
Is anyone else also getting error CDB_Header checksum did not match using the latest LiveCloud toolkit (2.7.8). I've even tried creating a blank test project from LCM and opening it in LiveCode without any modifications and I still get the error. I'm using LiveCode Win 9.6.8.
I am a bit confused about how the CDBCache should be working. I may have the wrong understanding from the documentation and what I get with the code. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction.
My application starts after the login with checking to start with syncing updated records if authentication status with the cloud succeeds and then go into the first card, or just straight go to the first card if authentication status with the local database succeeds.
Code:
get cdb_auth(tEmail,tPassWord,"User")
put cdb_authStatus() into tAuthStatusA
if tAuthStatusA["cloud"] then
cdb_loadTable
...
else
if tAuthStatusA["local"] then
cdb_loadTable
...
end if
end if
...
The user can update records and these are applied to the local database first, and then synced to the cloud using cdb_batchSync(tInputA).
All have been working just fine when there is an internet connection, passing the cloud authentication at the start. I can use different devices and their local database is always synced via the cloud database. But when I put my laptop in airplane mode (no internet) it passes the local authentication and the call to cdb_batchSync isn't being processed. (This is testing in the development environment, working from within the LiveCode IDE.) I assumed from the documentation that the missed transactions, to sync the cloud database with the local changes (as the source), will be cached. When the application would start the next time, my laptop not being in airplane mode (so WITH an internet connection), the cached data update would then be applied to the cloud database. This never happens though.
Is there a different way I should work with this, keeping database content synced via the cloud across different devices (when sometimes a device is being used without an internet connection)? Any help to understand this better I would appreciate very much.
I want update you that we are in the process of updating all the regions with updated libraries.
The main change is that emails for new developer and user accounts will now store emails with all characters store in lowercase.
We have received feedback that people could not remember their email casing. This caused frustration.
To be clear, we are still supporting full case sentivity for passwords. Nothing is changing there.
We also changed how authKeys work. We no longer update the initializeCanelaDB handler in your apps. This model has been deprecated. This change alone will prevent the errors related to not being able to decrypt your config file. In the past, the key used for encryption was changing based on the last signed in user in your app. This could make it difficult to recover from.
What else are we working on for the near future?
We are reworking our APIkey system. The update will prevent sign-ins from different apps that use LiveCloud on the same computer from changing the API key forcing authorization again.
The downtime should be minimal with most of your clients not even noticing.
I'm newbie here to use this livecloud. unfortunately upon creating my account I have problem in choosing "Region" my region is not included in the list.
My region is in ASIA - Philippines.
can still try this livecloud as a (starting tier - mist (free)
