Dear BL-Users

I got an Update on BrickStore and now when I want to download my BL inventory
I get the error message Invalid Device Information.

Does anyone have the same Problem?

What do I need to do?

Thanks for helping.

Best regards

@Admin_Russell:

did the security changes implemented following the hacking of accounts might
have caused this lifeline to get cut?

Doesn't work:

- Importing orders
- Importing inventory
- Wanted lists
- Shopping carts

Does work:
- price guide
- updating database

Seems there's something blocking the software knocking on BL-doors....

"Invalid Device" sounds like it's related to the one-time pin. If
BrickStore has its own login for API access then it could be that that setting
was turned on (as it was for everyone) and needs to be turned off.

I also thought it would be enough if I switched off OTP. Unfortunately without
success. Data retrieval is not possible!

The entire message I am getting "Invalid Device Information!"

I know BL is using AWS, so I wonder if they turned on a new security "feature"
and this is the unintended consequence?

It might be filtering by user agent and only allowing common ones through.

Has anyone wiresharked BrickStore to see which user agent is being sent?

OR maybe, Lego said "No more BrickStore for you" soup Nazi style.

You can manually get most of the information this is blocked from automatic download:

(Download the first 3 as xml and import into BrickStore)

Inventory: https://www.bricklink.com/invExcel.asp

Orders Received: https://www.bricklink.com/orderExcel.asp?orderType=received

Orders Placed: https://www.bricklink.com/orderExcel.asp?orderType=placed

Wanted list: go to the desired WL and click download and import into BrickStore.

I do not know how BrickStore downloads carts as they seems to be some sort of
coded file (every other number is a 3 however, weird) when exported.

Hope this helps someone.

It's not due to to user agent.

It's now 2 hours+ after deployment, we many have problems, no communication.

In 2000 spaghetti were fine for a one solo admin and team.

But right now? I can't do anything, I've 2 projects to quote and 1 to
realize
I just hate BrickLink at this moment.

How do you know this? Not saying you're wrong, but what is your proof?

24 year old spaghetti does not sound appetizing.

Ouch.

That's the spirit! Now you're coming around.

Surely you are not suggesting that the change log, er roadmap, is out of date.

Nothing has happened since March 26th.

Russell already told us in forum it's more or less updated and/or I know
could check some changes not shown.

BrickStore is not a browser.

I wish you were not right either. This bites so much!

It is a shame we have to rely on 3rd party tools just to make Bricklink workable.

This is going to make my month end and quarter end process a major pain in the
butt.

Hey Bricklink Admin, fix yo system or let Robert know the new authentication
scheme.

(Download the first 3 as xml and import into BrickStore)

Inventory: https://www.bricklink.com/invExcel.asp

Orders Received: https://www.bricklink.com/orderExcel.asp?orderType=received

Orders Placed: https://www.bricklink.com/orderExcel.asp?orderType=placed

Wanted list: go to the desired WL and click download and import into BrickStore.

I do not know how BrickStore downloads carts as they seems to be some sort of
coded file (every other number is a 3 however, weird) when exported.

Hope this helps someone.

I am able to download inventory, but get the following error when I try to download
both orders received and orders placed

I just tested something and it seemed to work:

Just download the entire inventory from the bottom of the inventory page as an
xml and then I opened / imported the file as an xml in Brickstore and it seemed
to work for me.

  Dear BL-Users

I got an Update on BrickStore and now when I want to download my BL inventory
I get the error message Invalid Device Information.

Does anyone have the same Problem?

What do I need to do?

Thanks for helping.

I have the same problem too. Probably due to [redacted] stupid attacks to BL. Anyway
if you save your yesterday work as a local file, you can open it and continue
your work...but without uploading to BL, just save it again and wait.

I have no idea what BrickLink did on their side. There was no communication at
all about an upcoming change in login procedure towards me.

We have to wait for BrickLink to respond here: either they roll back the change
that broke BrickStore's login or they need to give me a technical explanation
on how this needs to be done from now on.

PS: Changing the user agent does not help.

UPDATE:

The new login procedure was launched as a security feature, but we have rolled
it back. There should be no issues with Brickstore login at this point.

Please let us know if you continue to experience problems. Thank you for your
patience.

Nothing like testing in production!?! I guess it is better than no testing.

They do testing:
1) Deploy silently at any time in production.
2) Read the forum.
It works.

Personally, I am a bit tired of being the canary in the coal mine.

But I keep coming back to life and a little of me dies, metaphorically. Ironically,
I can't seem to get enough. Maybe I'm a masochist.





But really, I just want to sell Lego to people.

Same... even much more, we want to make people be able to build what they wish.

Which is why since the first day, we've no extra fee, no limit, no minimum
or selling by bulk qty or super lot, accepting like 15 currencies, all payment
methods that work, and all shipping methods you can wish.

But as of right now I've concerns about a Security I don't wish, and
even if I click "I don't wish" they may implement / fail it

BrickLink silent, unplanned, uncommunicated, capricious and arbitrary changes
freighten me 100000x more than all the all-times hackers united.

Couldn't have said it better. Not kidding: I don't even report bugs anymore
because I am afraid they'll break something if they find it. If I do a count
over my reported issues over the years, the chance they break something has been
greater than the chance that they actually fix what I reported. I guess there's
a good side to Bricklink's general inertia

Please let us know if you continue to experience problems. Thank you for your
patience.

Although the request is to let them know if the PROBLEMS are still their, I think
it's fair to confirm everything is back to normal operations.

Please test properly before rolling out new features like these; let some members
test them for you if there is no time on the dev.team.
