API not responding correctly, is it experiencing issues?

I’m using a freeagent API php wrapper to interact with the API. We
implemented code which was last confirmed working ~ 2 weeks ago.

Since this time we moved on to some of the other areas of the site and when
we’ve come back to test the API today we are getting a null response.

to our code base or the PHP API wrapper we are using and the working API
code from two weeks ago no longer works. Getting or setting projects
doesn’t seem to work at all but I can still auth with the API so I assume
it may be something specific to the API endpoints.

Not sure if this changes anything but I’m using a Sandbox account and the
api.sandbox. urls.

Hello,

I’m going to look at improving the monitoring around SSL certificates
internally since we should have caught this certificate chain issue. Of
course Chrome and Firefox were showing no issues for me initially since
they had the intermediate certificates in their certificate store.

A more public status page is definitely something we have talked about in
the past but isn’t on our immediate backlog I’m afraid.

Thanks,

Thanks for letting me know what’s happened. In the future will it be
possible for you to detect these types of issues? It would be awesome to be
able to see a box on the http://status.freeagent.com/ domain showing the
current status of the API and Sandbox API.

Hello,

I’m from the operations team at FreeAgent and have been taking a look at
your issue.

I suspect the problem was actually an SSL mis-configuration at our end.
We rotated the SSL on the sandbox certificate to fix issues for some
clients. However unfortunately due to a mis-configuration in the new
certificate chain it appears we broke access for some other clients in the
process.

Sorry about that. Hopefully it should be working for you now.

Please post back to the group if you continue to have issues and we’ll
look into them for you.

Thanks,
Nathan

If i try to access the API in any way (create/edit or get
projects/contacts or tasks/timeslips) I get no data and the result from
CURL is null. I’ve had a lot of problems with the API before but it always
responded with an error message of some kind. This time I don’t really get
anything back (see pastebin).

Also not sure what is meant by this:
A sanitised version of your API request
A sanitised version of the API response (including any error messages)

I’m using a php wrapper and I’ve done my best to output the info I can
get from it. If you need more information can you please provide me with a
quick run-down on how to do the httpbin post thing and what you mean by a
sanitised version of my API request?

I’m using the Sandbox environment
