I thought a workaround for this, some might not consider this a solution but in my case works fine because it depends on the ISSUU publisher account.
The Solution itself is making a Request to ISSUU API connected with the publisher account I'm looking for.
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://api.issuu.com/query?action=issuu.documents.list" +
"&apiKey=Inser Your API Key" +
"&format=json" +
"&documentUsername=User of the account you want to make a request" +
"&pageSize=100&resultOrder=asc" +
"&responseParams=name,documentId,pageCount" +
"&username=Insert your ISSUU username" +
"&token=Insert Your Token here");
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.Accept = "application/json";
try
{
using (WebResponse response = request.GetResponse())
{
var responseValue = string.Empty;
// grab the response
using (var responseStream = response.GetResponseStream())
{
using (var reader = new StreamReader(responseStream))
{
responseValue = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
}
if (responseValue != "")
{
List<string> lista_linkss = new List<string>();
JObject ApiRequest = JObject.Parse(responseValue);
//// get JSON result objects into a list
IList<JToken> results = ApiRequest["rsp"]["_content"]["result"]["_content"].Children()["document"].ToList();
for (int i = 0; i < results.Count(); i++)
{
Folheto folheto = new Folheto();
folheto.name = results[i]["name"].ToString();
folheto.documentId = results[i]["documentId"].ToString();
folheto.pageCount = Int32.Parse(results[i]["pageCount"].ToString());
string _date = Newtonsoft.Json.JsonConvert.SerializeObject(results[i]["uploadTimestamp"], Formatting.None, new IsoDateTimeConverter() { DateTimeFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss" }).Replace(@"""", string.Empty);
folheto.uploadTimestamp = Convert.ToDateTime(_date);
if (!lista_nomes_Sirena.Contains(folheto.name))
{
list.Add(folheto);
}
}
}
}
}
catch (WebException ex)
{
// Handle error
}
You have to pay attention to the Parameter "pageSize" the maximum permitted by the API is 100, this means the maximum number of results you get is 100, since the account I'm following has around 240 pdf's, I used this request once with the Parameter "resultOrder = asc" and another time with the value "resultOrder=desc".
This allowed me to get the first 100 pdfs and the latest 100 pdfs inserted.
Since I didn't need a history but just the pdf's they will be sending out from now, it didn't make a difference.
Finalizing my code I'm sending all the document's ID's to a sql database I made, and when I start the program, I make a check to see if the ID was already downloaded, if not it downloads the pdf, if yes it doesn't.
Hope someone can find this work around useful
