Don,

Can you please also have a look at the changeAlbumSettings method, it is also returning an unpopulated response and no updates are applied.

Thanks,

David

    .. there was a long outstanding issue with char ' in description, as well as \' and \" in caption (for creating albums). Was it looked at during the recent changes? Shall I give it another try?

    Hmm, I could have sworn I made it return a mildly useful error result if it couldn't validate the settings for the album.

    Can you double-check?

    Hey Don,

    Thanks for the reply.

    That part of my code is in pieces at the moment. I am the process of combining my create/modify album functionality.

    I am trying to get uploading working at present, and don't see that I will get back into changeAlbumSettings until sometime next week.

    But I will let you know if it's not working.

    Thanks,

    David

    Khm..
    Don,
    can I have you look at ' and (' and ") problem? Those characters in caption and description of createAlbum lead to errors..

    Muchas gracias, compadrethumb.gif

    Hi Don,

    Sorry I have had pretty busy week, and spent a fair portion of the weekend studying for a test. Hopefully, I will have a chance this week.

    I'm trying to use changeAlbumSettings in a script to propagate a template change to all my existing albums. I'm not getting the empty strings others reported, but I do get back a faultCode: 14, "invalid album data: Title". I'm not specifying a title and the API description of changeAlbumSettings doesn't mention title, so this is a mystery.

    I have updated my scripts to use the new API, with API key, new URLs, new method names, everything. Now I'm seeing what the other folks above reported, smugmug.albums.changeSettings returns a null response instead of the promised AlbumID, and the requested changes do not get applied.
