Good Luck

I use vb.net programming language to call the https://cloudreco.vuforia.com/v1/query this api (https://library.vuforia.com/articles/Solution/How-To-Perform-an-Image-Recognition-Query), but it return the "AuthenticationFailure", I use the same sign way  to call https://vws.vuforia.com/  this api, it return success.

I also notified that

  I try modify the Access Keys into Client Access Keys , buy now  it return {"transaction_id":"5b1f2cbe255a464ca34bfccb4d1f3aaf","result_code":"AuthenticationFailure"}  401 error.

Thanks!

Same problem here!

I don't know where is the problem. The response is only  "transaction_id":"718ab066c5b343289bdcb26e2c93eece","result_code":"AuthenticationFailure"

Is there some work example in java?

Thanks.

Hello,

I am also trying to work with Image Query API in java but it doesn't work it fails with Authentication failure. Can you please guide and provide the sample in java for Image query API which is not present in the VWS Sample java API and only present in Python sample  :-(. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you. 

Here I translated the sample of Image Recognition Query found in https://developer.vuforia.com/downloads/samples, at the end of the page. The python sample is the only one that implements a query. The code works to authentication but it returns the error code 422 that is "bad image".

 

I have not had any solution to this problem and I am very disappointed.

My intention was to use Vuforia's services from the beginning, but I had to resort to other APIs because I could not implement Image Recognition Query.

I still want to use Vuforia, but is there an immediate solution to this problem?

Grateful!

Hi,

I've a problem with authorization using Image Recognition Query via VWS.

I'm using the same method applied to post a target with VWS API (that works), and tested with both access keys (client and server). But I keep getting the authentication error (e.g. {"transaction_id":"6f359f43aa2d4f8884d580537bfec82d","result_code":"AuthenticationFailure"}).

The only item I'm not sure that is correct is the Content-Type. This field is being filled according to my request body (e.g. multipart/form-data; boundary=----4560121156), so that the same value is used to generate the signature.

For the rest of the values, I believe that is correct because it is the same request process of VWS API, with the exception of endpoint + path that is "https://cloudreco.vuforia.com/v1/query".

My project is well overdue and I could already integrate with other API without difficulty, but I believe in the power of Vuforia, and he was chosen from planning.

Any help will be very appreciated.

 

No further,

Hiago Takaki

I am using Image Recognition Query via VWS in PHP but i am getting error  "Unexpected HTTP status: 415 Unsupported Media Type".

I am using following code for image.

I have Placed image on my server to test it.

$file = file_get_contents($this->imageLocation);

   $file = base64_encode( $file );

  }



  return $file;

Please help me on it.

Hi,

I am trying to achieve Cloud Recognition through Image Recognition Query of VWS, using unity and C#. I am using client keys instead of server keys as mentioned in different discussions in the forums. But irrespective of the keys being used, the request throws "401: unauthorized" error. I am re-using the code which works fine for uploading a target to cloud database. The code used is as below. Please help in resolving the issue.

    private string url = "https://cloudreco.vuforia.com/v1/query";

    private string targetName = "MyTarget" + System.DateTime.Now.ToString(); // must change when upload another Image Target, avoid same as exist Image on cloud

    void Start()

    {

        

        StartCoroutine(PostNewTarget());

    }

    [System.Serializable]

    public class PostNewTrackableRequest

    {

        public string name;

        public string image;

       

    }

    IEnumerator PostNewTarget()

    {

        

        string serviceURI = url ;

        string httpAction = "POST";

        string contentType = "multipart/form-data";

        string date = string.Format("{0:r}", System.DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime());

        Debug.Log(date);

        // if your texture2d has RGb24 type, don't need to redraw new texture2d

        Texture2D tex = new Texture2D(texture.width, texture.height, TextureFormat.RGB24, false);

        tex.SetPixels(tex.GetPixels());

        tex.Apply();

        byte[] image = tex.EncodeToPNG();

        System.IO.File.AppendAllText(Application.persistentDataPath+"/Debug.txt","byte array of image : "+image+"\n");

        //PostNewTrackableRequest model = new PostNewTrackableRequest();

        //model.image = System.Convert.ToBase64String(image);

        //model.name = targetName;

        //model.width = 64.0f; // don't need same as width of texture

        //model.image = System.Convert.ToBase64String(image);

        string requestBody = JsonWriter.Serialize(System.Convert.ToBase64String(image));

        WWWForm form = new WWWForm();

        var headers = form.headers;

        byte[] rawData = form.data;

        headers["Host"] = url;

        byte[] sha1Hash = sha1.ComputeHash(stream);

        string signature = System.Convert.ToBase64String(sha1Hash);

        headers["Authorization"] = string.Format("VWS {0}:{1}", access_key, signature); 

        WWW request = new WWW(serviceURI, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(JsonWriter.Serialize(System.Convert.ToBase64String(image))), headers);

        yield return request;

        

        if (request.error != null)

Any update on this?  I can work post targets/delete targets etc. just fine; however, I can't seem to get past this a 401 status with "result_code":"AuthenticationFailure".

Any help or a link to code that is working would be greatly appreciated.

Hello!

I have the same problem. And I'm using the client access keys when attempting to access the Vuforia Web Query API, but without success.

Please, look: is there a different method in authentication to Vuforia Web Query API?

any update on this one?

how do we get rid of the authorization error?

Hi,

Iam Using This Image Recognition Query via VWS for getting the All targets.But Iam not able to get it and Iam getting the Response as follows:

{

  "result_code": "Fail",

  "transaction_id": "e4f9274b600c428980464071f420ef5f"

}

Even I have followed the Same Steps that you have mentioned in this Article.But One Thing I'am not sure about the Request Path, Content type and Content-MD5. I'am Using the Following as my String to Sign variable:

String stringToSign="GET"+"d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e"+"application/form-data"+"Tue, 25 Oct 2016 11:50:37 GMT"+"/targets"

As I'am Using the API for getting AllTargets, I'am using the Request Path as "/targets" and 

 Http-Verb as 'GET'  and content -MD5 as Default String(i.e. "d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e") since no request body and content-type as "application/form-data".

One More thing is I have created the New Cloud Database to generate the Access key and Secret Keys and I'am using the same keys in the generation of Signature.

Please find the code below that i have created to generate the signature:

public class GenerateSignature {

public static void main(String[] args) {

  String stringTosign="GET"+"d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e"+"application/form-data"+"Tue, 25 Oct 2016 11:50:37 GMT"+"/targets";

  System.out.println("HMAC-SHA1:-"+hmacSha1(stringTosign, "af4901e3e85b14533bcfd14fac5b3a646a8fc95f"));

  System.out.println(DateUtils.formatDate(new Date()).replaceFirst("[+]00:00$", ""));

}

public static String hmacSha1(String value, String key) {

        try {

            // Get an hmac_sha1 key from the raw key bytes

            byte[] keyBytes = key.getBytes();          

            SecretKeySpec signingKey = new SecretKeySpec(keyBytes, "HmacSHA1");

            // Get an hmac_sha1 Mac instance and initialize with the signing key

            Mac mac = Mac.getInstance("HmacSHA1");

            mac.init(signingKey);

            // Compute the hmac on input data bytes

            byte[] rawHmac = mac.doFinal(value.getBytes());

            byte[] hexBytes = new Hex().encode(rawHmac);

            //  Covert array of Hex bytes to a String

            String hexBytesStr = new String(hexBytes, "UTF-8");

          

            //  Covert array of Hex bytes to a String

          //  String hexBytesStr = new String(hexBytes, "UTF-8");

           

           //Base64

          byte[] encodedBytes = Base64.encodeBase64(hexBytesStr.getBytes());

            return new String(encodedBytes, "UTF-8");

        } catch (Exception e) {

            throw new RuntimeException(e);

        }

    }

}

Still I'am facing the issue.Please help me out on this and Correct me If I did any wrong.

Thanks,

Sudheshna

I have the same problem. 

In my exploration of the problem, I found the following information accessing https://developer.vuforia.com/targetmanager/vuforiaUtil/getLoggedInUser :

}

Does this have something to do with the recognition problem?

If so, why my cloud recognition status is USER_NOT_AUTHORISED? How to reverse it?

I have a developer license. Later my client will retain a proper license to his needs, but the project must be fully operational.

Hello,

Yes, I'm using the client access keys when attempting to access the Vuforia Web Query API.

In fact, I tried to use both client and server access keys, but without success.

Please, look: is there a different method in authentication to Vuforia Web Query API?

I'm using the same method of Post Target (that works).

Thanks.

Hello,

Please confirm that you're using the client access keys, and not the server access keys, when attempting to access the Vuforia Web Query API.

Thanks

Hello,

Progress! Now you need to make sure that the device/machine making the request is set to the correct date and time for your location. This error is indication that it is not set properly.

Thanks

Hello,

  I try modify the Access Keys into Client Access Keys , buy now  it return {"transaction_id":"a05aefde6eac449ba98a312e96a1f280","result_code":"RequestTimeTooSkewed"}  403 error,  if I request to much ? when or how  can  I request success .

thanks !

Hello,

Perhaps the problem lies in the keys you're using as the two APIs use different keys:

• Client Access Keys are used to make queries to the Cloud Reco Web API
• Server Access Keys are used to make requests to the VWS API

Thanks

Hello, I use the following code  to call (https://cloudreco.vuforia.com/v1/query) this API, but it return "AuthenticationFailure". The method "createSignature" is the common mehtod of the official demo, I use the same method "createSignature" to call (https://vws.vuforia.com/),  it return succe , can you help me to find some wrong in the following code , I need some help, thanks !

Hello,

The development team has confirmed that the two query APIs use the exact same method for authentication.

Thanks
