I hope you guys are having a wonderful day.
I have set up a webhook in my woocommerce that sends JSON data to Google sheets. The webhook has been working great for months now, just today, I am having some trouble with it. I have tracked the issue to be in google sheets receiving the JSON data, but I don't know why this is happening.
Let me explain.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18G-yVDjYeccl6kznpZgSuRTysRMAu57pwY2oGf6-KWI/edit?usp=sharing
This is the google sheet, when it gets Woocommerce JSON data, it populates a new row.
The problem
Sometimes google sheets doesn't populate the row upon receiving a new order. The problem doesn't lie with woocommerce, because I have checked woocommerce with reqbin and the webhook fires with every order.
Furthermore, when I send requests from reqbin.com to my sheet, the sheet performs the operation successfully 5-6 out of 10 times. Other times it shows an error.
The Error
The error is due to google sheets not being able to parse JSON data, because the JSON data it receives 5 out of 10 times is not proper JSON data. Other 5 times, it is just as it should be. I have put a catch statement if the sheet is unable to parse JSON. Instead of appending new row with the parsed data, it appends the raw received data to the sheet.
It is clear now that there is some issue with google sheets handling that JSON data because when the same data is sent from reqbin.com to webhook.site, it is perfectly as it should be 10/10 times.
How to reproduce the issue
Open this google sheet. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18G-yVDjYeccl6kznpZgSuRTysRMAu57pwY2oGf6-KWI/edit?usp=sharing
Open reqbin.com and webhook.site, and send the following JSON from reqbin.com to webhook.site 10 times to see if any kind of error occurs.

Now send the same data to the following google sheet to see if it appends the row correctly each time.

How do I solve the issue? Please let me know if you need any more information. Thanks.
Edit:
Instead of getting a full JSON body like mentioned above, the google sheets seems to be getting the following JSON.
{contextPath=, queryString=, parameter={}, postData=FileUpload, parameters={}, contentLength=3981.0}
I would like to know why the google sheets default parameter (e) contains this instead of a full JSON body sent to it.
Edit # 2
I would like to know why the google sheets default parameter (e) contains this instead of a full JSON body sent to it.
This is because (e) has a body which will always contain those parameters. The error is due to Google Sheets receiving an empty JSON body. I am still unable to understand why this happens. When I send the same JSON to API testing sites, they always receive full JSON body. Google sheets, in some cases, does not. Why is that?
I managed to solve the issue with some trial and error. For anyone facing the same issue in the future, here is what worked for me.
I was using e.postData.contents to get the JSON body but this seems to have stopped working, which was causing the JSON body to be empty. I tried e.postData.getDataAsString(); which seems to be working just fine and the issue has been resolved.

I'm having a problem in the last part of a transaction setup flow:
the client side correctly calls my backend which makes a call to PayPal to create the order and receives a response with status code 200.
The error occurs when the http response is returned to the client, here we realize that the json that was created by the paypal class is incomplete! There are no closing parentheses that invalidate the json. "} ] }"
I asked the paypal team for assistance but it is not helping me. They continue to go around the problem, saying that the bees always return the complete json to me, but I know this too, because in debug mode the result gives me a link that correctly sends me back to the paypal payment.
This makes me understand that in reality the flow that I created is complete but the PayPalHttp.HttpResponse class creates an incorrect body.
I am attaching the code.
Public Shared Async Function CreateOrder(ByVal Optional debug As Boolean = False) As Task(Of PayPalHttp.HttpResponse)
Dim result As New Order
Dim request = New OrdersCreateRequest()
request.Prefer("return=representation")
Dim newRequest As New OrderActionRequest
request.RequestBody(BuildRequestBody(dicNameValue))
Dim response = Await PayPalClient.client().Execute(request)
If debug Then
result = response.Result(Of Order)()
Console.WriteLine("Status: {0}", result.Status)
Console.WriteLine("Order Id: {0}", result.Id)
Console.WriteLine("Links:")
For Each link As LinkDescription In result.Links
Console.WriteLine(vbTab & "{0}: {1}" & vbTab & "Call Type: {2}", link.Rel, link.Href, link.Method)
Next
/*--- HERE THE PROBLEM ----*/
Dim json As String = PayPalClient.ObjectToJSONString(result)
Console.WriteLine("Response JSON: {0}", json)
/*----------*/
Dim amount As AmountWithBreakdown = result.PurchaseUnits(0).AmountWithBreakdown
Console.WriteLine("Total Amount: {0} {1}", amount.CurrencyCode, amount.Value)
End If
Return response
End Function
This is the incomplete json :

PS: the project is in VB.NET 4.6.1 (web forms)
Dim response = Await PayPalClient.client().Execute(request)
What is response here?
And can you debug the value further in, within PayPalClient.client().Execute(request)
PayPal sends JSON over the network. So it seems you are receiving JSON, which is converted into an Object, and then you are calling a function on that object that gives back JSON.
I am not sure why that particular function is giving bad JSON at the moment you call it, but I do know that the original JSON from PayPal is probably complete.
I was not able to read below mentioned received JSON from Rest API.

I want to use above data received in JSON format into a form.
Your question is not clear, but you can pass this values to a form using this :
const formValues = JSON.parse(yourJson);
this.form.values = formValues;

I've tried 100 different things, and spend days looking through Google and Stackoverflow, but I can't find a solution to this problem. Everything I call after the body of this API response returns undefined!

This response is from a batch call. If I call them separately, I can easily iterate through the responses, and get everything from them. When I call them in the batch though, I can't get past "body", and I need to use a batch call.
console.log(response[0].body); will return the object inside the body of the first part of the response, but console.log(response[0].body.data); returns undefined. I just don't get it. This should be simple but it's like there's a lock on the door and I don't have the right key.
I normally have no issue iterating through objects, so I don't need a generalized answer. I need help seeing whatever it is here that I don't see. Why does the console show undefined when I call anything after the body, and what do I need to be doing to get any of these values?
That JSON contains nested JSON. body seems to be a string. Use
var body = JSON.parse(response[0].body);
The values from the body are just strings.which are embedded as json.So firstly you would need to parse them using JSON.parse.
The code would be like
var body = JSON.parse(response[0].body);

Created a Facebook app and generated an Access token.
Access to Facebook Developer Graph explorer, and used GET method

How can I use Javascript to fetch these information and show them on my website : "message", "from", "created_time"? Any help will be highly appreciated since I'm new to Javascript and Facebook developers!
You alternatively may use Facebook Likebox plugin to show your recent posts in your website.
When we request a api call to foursquare for search venues of certain category

But i am not getting informatiion like isOpen Price etc which we get in the complete response when we use explore.
The API does not support returning complete objects in venue search responses—you need to make a separate venue details call to get the information you're looking for. We recommend caching venue details (for up to 30 days) to avoid having to repeatedly calling this endpoint to retrieve this information that doesn't necessarily change that often.
