Description

GSRequest(string apiKey=None, string secretKey=None, string apiMethod=None, JSON params=None, Boolean useHTTPS=False, userKey=None)

Constructs a request using the following parameters: apiKey - Your Gigya API-Key which can be obtained from the DashboardInformation published on non-SAP site section on Gigya's website (Read more in the Site Selector documentation). secretKey - Your Gigya Secret-Key which can be obtained from the DashboardInformation published on non-SAP site section on Gigya's website (Read more in the Site Selector documentation). apiMethod - The Gigya API method to call, including namespace. For example: 'socialize.getUserInfo'. Please refer to the REST API reference for the list of available methods. params (optional) - A JSON object that contains the parameters for the Gigya API method to call. Please refer to the REST API reference and find in the specific method reference the list of method parameters. useHTTPS (optional) - If you wish to send the request to Gigya using HTTPS, set this parameter to TRUE. By default the request is sent using HTTP. userKey (optional) - A key of an admin user with extra permissions. If this parameter is provided, then the secretKey parameter is assumed to be the admin user's secret key and not the site's secret key. Note: you may pass an OAuth 2.0 access_token instead of passing APIKey+SecretKey. Pass the access_token as the first parameter (instead APIKey) and None as the second (instead secretKey). Learn more about OAuth 2.0 and how to receive an access_token here.
