Hi all,
I'm newbie with API but I think that it is useful method to fast request. I create a simple php to request pages about my wiki but if I use API method, then my report is: .. You need read permission to use this module .. API help page ..
I describe better: * I have got one domain where it works url: http://genomics.cribi.unipd.it/api.php?action=parse&text=%7B%7BCategory:... * I have got other domain where I request this url (without final 'fm') into php page (with file_get_contents() function) * my result is an error about permission and API help page
* instead if I use next url into php page: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&text=%7B%7BUser:Bilardi%7... * my result is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Bilardi page
so that, php page works. I think that I must enable some parameters, but $wgEnableAPI default value is true.. and if I set $wgCrossSiteAJAXdomains = '*'; my result is again an error about permission and API help page
Can you help me about this?
Best, Alessandra.

The wiki you're querying does not allow anonymous users to read pages, so anonymous users also can't use the API. You need to log in in order to use the API.
