Error code 32099 INVALID_SESSION_INFORMATION

[toneloc]

Trying to develop an app in Visual Studio, using James Butler's "PROGRAMMING FOR BETFAIR" book

I think I've fallen at the first.

Keep getting the following error code when trying to run the application:-

[{"jsonrpc":"2.0","error":{"code":-32099,"message":"ANGX-0003","data":{"APINGException":{"requestUUID":"ie2-ang24b-prd-03031004-001105e8d2","errorCode":"INVALID_SESSION_INFORMATI ON","errorDetails":""},"exceptionname":"APINGExcep tion"}},"id":1}]

I thought it might be an issue with ssoid but I have just output the ssoid to a form and used it in the visualiser and it works fine.

I am using the delay APP KEY at the moment as only started experimenting so not sure if that is an issue?

Any ideas please?

According to the documentation, "INVALID_SESSION_INFORMATION The session token hasn't been provided, is invalid or has expired. Login again to create a new session".

If the problem persists, take any personal data out of the call that returned the problem and I'll check it over.

Thanks very much, jabe.

Got 1 module :-

Imports System.Net
Imports System.Text
Imports System.IO
Imports Newtonsoft.Json
Module SportsAPI

Public ssoid As String 'session token

Private Function SendSportsReq(ByVal jsonString As String)
Dim request As WebRequest =
WebRequest.Create("https://api.betfair.com/exchange/betting/json-rpc/v1")

Dim byteArray As Byte() = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(jsonString)

request.Method = "POST"
request.ContentType = "application/json"
request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length
request.Headers.Add("X-Application: XXX APP KEY GOES HERE XXX")
request.Headers.Add("X-Authentication: & ssoid")

Dim dataStream As Stream = request.GetRequestStream()
dataStream.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length)

Dim response As WebResponse = request.GetResponse()
dataStream = response.GetResponseStream()

Dim reader As New StreamReader(dataStream)
Dim responseFromServer As String = reader.ReadToEnd()

Form1.Print(responseFromServer)

Return responseFromServer

End Function

LoginForm:-

Public Class LoginForm
' Private Sub LoginForm_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

' End Sub

Private ssoid As String
Private Sub WebBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(sender As Object, e As _
WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs) Handles WebBrowser1.DocumentCompleted

Dim cookieArray As String() = WebBrowser1.Document.Cookie.Split(";")
If WebBrowser1.Document.Cookie.Count > 0 Then

For Each cookie In cookieArray
Dim Idx As Long = cookie.IndexOf("=")
If Idx <> -1 Then
Dim cookieName As String = cookie.Substring(0, Idx).Trim
Dim cookieValue As String = cookie.Substring(Idx + 1).Trim

If cookieName = "ssoid" Then
ssoid = cookieValue
End If

End If
Next
End If

If Not ssoid = "" Then
'Form1.Print(ssoid)
SportsAPI.ssoid = ssoid 'copy ssoid to SportsAPI module
Form1.Initialise()
Me.Close()
End If

End Sub
End Class

Hi

I am not a VB guy, but can see a mistake I think.

request.Headers.Add("X-Authentication: & ssoid")

your quote mark " at the end is in the wrong place, it will treat ssoid as a literal string not a variable name

Try

request.Headers.Add("X-Authentication: " & ssoid)

hopre that helps

Thanks very much, Geoff. That was it!

Must have checked that code about 10 time as well!
