mirror api broken

[nikmartin]

mirror.timeline.insert calls createAPIRequest with the Subscription Resource which encodes POST as url query params, but they have to be sent as a json Request Body payload.

and
Re :https://developers.google.com/glass/v1/reference/subscriptions/insert

When using the client this way, the Mirror API returns:

{ errors: 
   [ { domain: 'global',
       reason: 'required',
       message: 'collection field is required for Subscription' },
     { domain: 'global',
       reason: 'required',
       message: 'callbackUrl field is required for Subscription' } ],
  code: 400,
  message: 'collection field is required for Subscription' }

You must always declare the resource under the resource key like this:

var req = mirror.subscriptions.insert({ 
  resource: { 
    callbackUrl: "http://example.com", 
    collection: "timeline" 
  } 
});
console.log(req.href); // https://www.googleapis.com/mirror/v1/subscriptions (look, no url params here)

This is different than the pre-1.0.x library, so I understand the confusion. Let me know if this helps you.

You suggested mirror.timeline.insert but linked to mirror.subscriptions.insert however both should work. In the case of mirror.timeline.insert, this is a media upload so see the following docs on how to handle that: https://github.com/google/google-api-nodejs-client#media-uploads

[nikmartin]

yes, sorry, we have a whole set of mirror apis we're trying to upgrade to 1.0 api

[ryanseys]

Have you taken a look at the MIGRATING guide here that might help explain all the changes we made to make your migration as smooth as possible.

[nikmartin]

yeah, I glazed right over:

drive.files.update({ fileId: 'abc', resource: resourceObj })

Closing this under the impression that it's been resolved. Re-open if that's not the case @nikmartin

Thanks!
