SNS Mobile push CreatePlatformApplication() does not work

[doapp-ryanp]

I am trying to do a createPlatformApplication and I keep getting the following cryptic error:

SNS: Top level element may not be treated as a list

Here is my code:

                $sns->createPlatformApplication(array(
                        'Name'=>"Tmp",
                        'Platform'=>'GCM',
                        'Attributes'=>array(
                            'PlatformPrincipal'=>'NA',
                            'PlatformCredential'=>'my valid api key'    
                        )                       
                ));

Has anyone else gotten this to work? Here are api docs for more details:

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/sns/latest/api/API_CreatePlatformApplication.html
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/sns/latest/api/API_SetPlatformApplicationAttributes.html

I am successfully using getListPlatformApplicationsIterator() so I know I have things setup correctly. Also creating platform apps via console is working just fine.

So I added debug of what is going over the wire and it looks like guzzle is messing up the format...

...
$sns->addSubscriber(LogPlugin::getDebugPlugin());
...

Output:

...
Action=CreatePlatformApplication&Version=2010-03-31&Name=Tmp&Platform=GCM&Attributes.1.Name=PlatformPrincipal&Attributes.1.Value=NA&Attributes.2.Name=PlatformCredential&Attributes.2.Value=myValidApiKey
...

When it should look something like (note missing 'entry' and 'Name' instead of 'key' and 'Value' instead of 'value':

Attributes.entry.2.key=PlatformPrincipal
&SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256
&Attributes.entry.1.value=******2zEKTLYYo645zfk2jhQPFeyxDo
&Attributes.entry.2.value=There+is+no+principal+for+GCM
&AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
&Signature=82sHzg1Wfbgisw3i%2BHA2OgBmRktsqUKFinknkq3u%2FQ4%3D
&Timestamp=2013-07-01T15%3A49%3A50.354Z
&Name=gcmpushapp
&Attributes.entry.1.key=PlatformCredential
&Action=CreatePlatformApplication
&Version=2010-03-31
&SignatureVersion=2
&Platform=GCM

We are looking into this, but it looks like there definitely is a problem.

[doapp-ryanp]

Thanks. I also tried setting the sentAs attr in the sns resource but that did not make a difference. My guzzle knowledge is not that deep - otherwise I'd spend more time trying to submit a fix.

Once you fix, can you please make sure to test all the new Push service related methods, as this is blocking us - would like to avoid this method getting fixed but running into issues in the others.

[doapp-ryanp]

Sorry, I know this was just reported, but any idea a timeline for this fix? days/weeks? Thinking that if its in guzzle land it make take a while.

We are trying to get this into our production apps, and trying to decide if we should go another direction (maybe write some java code using the aws sdk for java)

This is an SDK specific issue. This issue will likely be fixed and packaged into a release early next week.

Hey @doapp-ryanp, I am working on a fix for this right now in PR #139. I am doing some more testing before I merge it into master, but I wanted to let you know about it in case you want to give it a try.

[doapp-ryanp]

@jeremeamia thanks for the heads up. I wont be able to get to it for another day or so. My composer dependency chain makes it hard for me to test non tagged versions - so I'll probably wait til it gets into one.

[jeremeamia]

OK, I merged this into master now, so stay tuned for a release sometime soon.

[jeremeamia]

Now released in 2.4.4.

Thanks!

Why this bug is closed ?
Its 2018 and the bug still exits......

sns.createPlatformApplication promise does not return anything, either success or failure.....
