Does anybody ever got this error while using Yahoo Answers API?
Here is the error I am getting while using Answers API:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes" ?>
- <ResultSet xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns="urn:yahoo:answers" xsi:schemaLocation="urn:yahoo:answers
http://answers.yahooapis.com/AnswersService/V1/QuestionResponse.xsd">
<Error>The following errors were detected</Error>
<Message>Invalid appid</Message>
</ResultSet>
- <!-- ws01.search.scd.yahoo.com compressed/chunked Sun Dec 3
01:49:08 PST 2006
-->
My App ID Very Much correct and the same id is working Yahoo Search
APIs. But still I am getting this error. If anybody have also facing
this problem then please tell me the solution.
Thanks

Thanks for response Chris.
I think I solved the problem.
There is a bug in Yahoo Answers API and
AppID must not include any Special in that
e.g. @,. etc. etc.
So, There was a special symbol in my AppID and
due to that it was not working. I have created
new AppId with Yahoo (without any special character)
and now it is woring fine.
Hi
Does anybody know if Yahoo Answer can accept questions through SMS /
Text Message ? Also, if it can respond back through SMS ?
Do they have plans to start this ?

Any plans to add support for posting questions to Y! Answers via the
API? I could understand why not, but I'm curious if it has been
considered. Thanks!

Hi,
I think I'm having similar problems.. except for me it's 90% of the
time I get an error, When I enter my query into a browser I sometimes
get this server response:
HTTP Error 408 / 409 - Not acceptable / Resource conflict
Internet Explorer
it used to work ok (not played much with the answers api lately so
would have been late December last year) The same query will work
eventually and return the correct result set.

What does this error mean? It worked yesterday, for the same exact
query (see below). Does it mean I exceeded my limit?
Query:
"http://answers.yahooapis.com/AnswersService/V1/getByUser?appid=<...>
&user_id=1ccf4408a6862b6272c7872e63b19c51aa
&type=resolved
&filter=question&results=50
&start=0"
Thanks,

Hello all,
I use the answers api to the question text for a given qid using -->
"http://answers.yahooapis.com/AnswersService/V1/getQuestion?
However, the results contain the encoded character set for specical
characters --> (' for a single quote and so on)
Due to this, my server cannot read anything after & and the text input
is broken.
Now I am trying to use French characters and it is going to be
horrible for that.
What's the easiest way to handle this?
Thanks,
Deepa
The URLs returned in the API do not work correctly in Firefox
(returning "There was a problem performing that action, please try
again later"). Work well in IE.
Example:
<Link>
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/?qid=20070410224242AAu4B1u
</Link>
You are right. Seems resolved now.
Pawel.

Hi all,
I have tried using API on a few question ids, my question is can I
obtain no of voting for each answer for the questions returned?
regards
maggy
I have made several attempts to generate an application id. In each
case I filled out the provided form, received text to be placed in a
file and uploaded to the site's root folder. Having done so I have
successfully verified via the registration site file check. When I
continue I receive a page containing the following:
--------------------------------------------------
Congratulations, jah_canal_alarm, your application is now registered!
Yeah!
* Your application id is
To view your current application ids, click here.
You may want to print this page for your records.
Here's what to do next.

The input data which generated this message was:
---------------------------------------------------

*Developer/Company Name: Canal Alarm
*Product name: Conduit Monkey

*Contact email: james.herndon@...

Assistance in this matter would be deeply appreciated<grin>

Hi all,
I attempted to use the api, and received http response 403, forbidden/
unauthorized after 1000<request< 2000 . I understand there is a daily
limit, however I think I haven't exceeded the daily limit yet.
is this problem is due to daily limet? should I wait to the next day to
continue downloading the data from Yahoo Answers or is there any good
solution to it?
Looking forwardto your reply, I'll highly appreciate it.
regards
maggy

Dear all,
how to obtain questions by category from a period of date.
I tried to use search by category, with order: date_asc. At each
request, I set maximum questions = 50. When I use date_desc option,
the request behaves similarly after less than 100 requests.
these are what I have attempted:
After the 200th request (question 10000), on the subsequent requests,
using Date_asc option:
first request I obtain the questions at Dec 2005
at 200th request I obtain questions dated July 2006
using date_desc option:
first request I obtain Sept 2007
after around 100 requests, I obtain questions dated August 2007
so, I still need questions from july 2006 to july 2007. Anyway to
obtain these questions?
best regards
maggy anastasia
can somebody please answer my question?

I'm not sure I know how to do such a thing. I just used it for the get category
function (and took it as a block)

Hello,
I was wondering if there is a way for getting all the questions for a
certain date. I know there's date range parameter for Answers APIs,
but it doesn't do any good given that you can get only up to 1000
results in return.
