Thank you for your responses. @Juju, I didn't post it in the technical discussion section because it says it is for "Technical discussion about Satoshi's Bitcoin client and the Bitcoin network in general. No third-party sites/clients..." and I thought the btcjam api would count as a third party site/client. Anyways, The API is still only working for the "listings" request for me. When I try the endpoint
https://btcjam.com/api/v1/me?appid=xxxx&secret=xxxxxI am still getting a 500 error. I think you are right that I need some additional verification, but I am still not sure exactly what you mean, as it is not in the docs anywhere. All it says is that I need to append the above endpoint with my appid and secret. I am expecting that there need to be some headers, and probably some sort of hashed signature, but it is unclear exactly how their authentication is supposed to work. From what I understood in the docs and from the one support discussion I had about 3 months ago, oauth is supported but not required for authentication. Even so, I tried using the signpost api for implementing oauth in java, but even using that I still get the 500 error.
I know btcjam is very busy right now with a lot of things, and they probably dont have time to focus on more than the bare minimum functionality of the api. But given that the docs are incomplete, you don't respond to support requests for 3 months, and I know of at least 4 other people also getting 500 errors including 2 people I hired specifically to try to "debug" the api, I would say that this it is still not quite functioning at bare minimum. I think a little bit of time fleshing out the docs could go a long way for your dev customers.
