Hi all - I am having problems with the CC API. I thought the issue was the
4.0 license, but am realizing that's not the case. If you try to get
license details through the API -- I've done this with the staging version,
dev verison, and the 1.5 version -- you get back "Invalid license URI" even
when you do this with a simple BY/3.0 license.

Staging -
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/staging/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

Development -
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/dev/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

1.5
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.5/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0

If you swap out the 3.0 for 4.0 - same problem. Has something changed with
API calls? According to the API info page, this all should work.
http://api.creativecommons.org/docs/readme_15.html

Thanks for any/all help!

Hello,
I recently visited the website http://creativecommons.org and selected a
license for my blog content. I used the website to generate the HTML code.
I have made ZERO modifications to the HTML that is generated.
I would like to add this HTML code to my blog which is built using
SharePoint Online. For some reason, the HTML code from your website does
not appear to be compatible. I am unable to save any blog entries which
contain this code. I have tested other snippets of HTML code which work
fine with SharePoint Online. So there is something about the HTML code
from http://creativecommons.org which is not compatible.
Can someone please help me troubleshoot this issue?
Thank you,
Harris Schneiderman

Hi Lisa,

The URL you're looking for is for instance
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/staging/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
Please note the trailing /

However, I can't get the API to give any information on the 4.0 suite of
licenses. On the other hand,
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.5/simple/chooser also returns only
the 3.0 licenses, so I would assume that the API simply has not been
updated.

Sincerely,
Jonas

Got it.

I took a quick look... and I don't know how the api service is configured.
I think it's just a matter of updating the RDF, but I'm not sure how
quickly I could figure it out to update it. It looks like it's in a Python
egg file.

I've got it tracked, though, we'll get it fixed.

Hello,
I recently visited the website http://creativecommons.org and

selected a

does

not appear to be compatible. I am unable to save any blog entries

which

contain this code. I have tested other snippets of HTML code which

work

fine with SharePoint Online. So there is something about the HTML code

Can someone please help me troubleshoot this issue?
Thank you,

Got it.
I took a quick look... and I don't know how the api service is configured. I think it's just a matter of updating the RDF, but I'm not sure how quickly I could figure it out to update it. It looks like it's in a Python egg file.
I've got it tracked, though, we'll get it fixed.

Hi Lisa,
The URL you're looking for is for instance http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/staging/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
Please note the trailing /
However, I can't get the API to give any information on the 4.0 suite of licenses. On the other hand, http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.5/simple/chooser also returns only the 3.0 licenses, so I would assume that the API simply has not been updated.
Sincerely,
Jonas

Hi all - I am having problems with the CC API. I thought the issue was the 4.0 license, but am realizing that's not the case. If you try to get license details through the API -- I've done this with the staging version, dev verison, and the 1.5 version -- you get back "Invalid license URI" even when you do this with a simple BY/3.0 license.
Staging -
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/staging/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0
Development -
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/dev/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0
1.5
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.5/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0
If you swap out the 3.0 for 4.0 - same problem. Has something changed with API calls? According to the API info page, this all should work. http://api.creativecommons.org/docs/readme_15.html
Thanks for any/all help!

Help would be much welcome! But I think it's currently a bit hard to help.

There is a repo for the API on GitHub:

https://github.com/creativecommons/cc.api

But unlike the main creativecommons.org site, that repo doesn't encompass
all of the API, it's expected to be deployed on a server together with
dependencies (like the license.rdf repo). For creativecommons.org I spent a
ton of time making it so that a single repo was all you needed, using
submodules for some of the dependencies:

https://github.com/creativecommons/creativecommons.org (see python_env)

There is no such thing for the API right now, so to update it it's not a
simple change in git.

I agree with you though, it should be a lot easier to help. We are getting
closer to hiring a new sysadmin, and cleaning up systems & getting
everything in order will be an early priority.

Hey all,

Still need to re-do these installs from a clean base and make it easy to
deploy changes... but in the meantime, I've hacked the latest rdf into it,
so 4.0 support is live on the api.

http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.5/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

So, rejoice!

Dan

PS: Jonas - note that the URL you sent earlier was for "/rest/staging"
which also works but is another copy of the api, perhaps one with fewer
guarantees that it'll stay unchanged (given the name, and the directory it
actually maps to on disk being "dev").

I've got it tracked, though, we'll get it fixed.

Hi Lisa,
The URL you're looking for is for instance
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/staging/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
Please note the trailing /
However, I can't get the API to give any information on the 4.0 suite of
licenses. On the other hand,
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.5/simple/chooser also returns only
the 3.0 licenses, so I would assume that the API simply has not been
updated.
Sincerely,
Jonas
Hi all - I am having problems with the CC API. I thought the issue was
the 4.0 license, but am realizing that's not the case. If you try to get
license details through the API -- I've done this with the staging version,
dev verison, and the 1.5 version -- you get back "Invalid license URI" even
when you do this with a simple BY/3.0 license.
Staging -
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/staging/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0
Development -
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/dev/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0
1.5
http://api.creativecommons.org/rest/1.5/details?license-uri=http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0
If you swap out the 3.0 for 4.0 - same problem. Has something changed
with API calls? According to the API info page, this all should work.
http://api.creativecommons.org/docs/readme_15.html
Thanks for any/all help!

Hello,
I recently visited the website http://creativecommons.org and selected a
license for my blog content. I used the website to generate the HTML code.
I have made ZERO modifications to the HTML that is generated.
I would like to add this HTML code to my blog which is built using
SharePoint Online. For some reason, the HTML code from your website does
not appear to be compatible. I am unable to save any blog entries which
contain this code. I have tested other snippets of HTML code which work
fine with SharePoint Online. So there is something about the HTML code
from http://creativecommons.org which is not compatible.
Can someone please help me troubleshoot this issue?
Thank you,
Harris Schneiderman

The 3 xmlns attributes. And drop t from dct: (dc: is in the RDFa initial

Hi Lisa,

Oh dear, I'm not sure what broke there.

We're in the middle of a transition -- I will take a look in the next
couple of days if I can fit it in, otherwise we'll get to it ASAP in the
next few weeks as a new sysadmin comes onboard.

Thanks, hope you can work around it until then.

Dan

Hi all - I am having problems with the CC API. I thought the issue was
the 4.0 license, but am realizing that's not the case. If you try to get
license details through the API -- I've done this with the staging version,
dev verison, and the 1.5 version -- you get back "Invalid license URI" even
when you do this with a simple BY/3.0 license.
Staging -

Development -

1.5
