Hi, I'm new to Podio and I'm trying to setup the API using PHP on my web server.

Problem is, I keep running into that "Client has not been setup with client id and client secret" error, but I can't seem to find what is wrong with my integration, there's barely 2-3 lines of code, I'm not sure what could be wrong...

My APP setting: http://jlmultimedia.net/podio/screenshot.png
My code: http://jlmultimedia.net/podio/screenshot2.png

In the error_log file:

PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Client has not been setup with client id and client secret.' in /home4/jlmultim/public_html/podio/podio-php/lib/Podio.php:139

Stack trace:
#0 /home4/jlmultim/public_html/podio/podio-php/lib/Podio.php(101): Podio::request('POST', '/oauth/token', Array, Array)
#1 /home4/jlmultim/public_html/podio/podio-php/lib/Podio.php(54): Podio::authenticate('app', Array)
#2 /home4/jlmultim/public_html/podio/test.php(16): Podio::authenticate_with_app('my-first-app-xi...', 'jAkMDpoF4TeQo9I...')
#3 {main}

thrown in /home4/jlmultim/public_html/podio/podio-php/lib/Podio.php on line 139

Anybody can help??
Thanks!

  Hi Joel,

  please take a look at the documentation for the App authentication flow, which you are using:

  https://developers.podio.com/authentication/app_auth

  As you can see, there are 4 things you need to supply (not 2): the app_id, app_token, and the client_idand client_secret:

  Podio::setup(YOUR_CLIENT_ID, YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET);
  
  try {
    Podio::authenticate_with_app(YOUR_APP_ID, YOUR_APP_TOKEN);
  
    // Authentication was a success, now you can start making API calls.
  
  
  }
  catch (PodioError $e) {
    // Something went wrong. Examine $e->body['error_description'] for a description of the error.
  }
  

  So what are all these things? The client_id and client_secret identify your client (in your case: your PHP-script) to Podio. The app_id and app_token are allowing your client to access the app with the specific app_id. They are similar to a username / password in this way.

  Important: You should NEVER publish this information on the internet, because this is a security risk. You should delete the client_id and client_secret and create new once. Also, you should reset the app_token (in the developer menu of the app).

  Best,
  Stefan

  Hi Stefan,

  Thanks a lot for your help, it is very much appreciated.

  So I am not sure I understand the first part of the doc about the POST request, but I tried the code you posted and still no luck:

  Podio::setup("my-first-app-xii8h5", "jAkMDpoF4TeQo9I3eECVce22cctytv1AL7wkrJtcyZgVZ2niWm0AP0IO1Q7jMX41");

  try {
  Podio::authenticate_with_app("12842044", "575b032b397647a5a74ba06e8013a994");

  // Authentication was a success, now you can start making API calls.

  }
  catch (PodioError $e) {
  // Something went wrong. Examine $e->body['error_description'] for a description of the error.
  echo $e->body['error_description'];
  }

  the error_description now contains -> Invalid value "my-first-app-xii8h5" (string): must be integer"

  I don't understand why it is asking for an integer, since the client_id is alphanumeric ?? my-first-app-xii8h5 is my CLIENT_ID...?

  About the security risk, don't worry this is only a test app I will delete it and create a new one after I am able to establish a Podio connection through PHP.

  Thanks so much for your help :)

  while the error doesn't match, I'm pretty sure it's the app_id that needs to be the integer, so like this:

  Podio::authenticatewithapp(12842044, "575b032b397647a5a74ba06e8013a994");
