I've searched for similar questions - there are many - but all seem to be unanswered. So I will ask it again, if allowed.
Does any API from LinkedIn currently offer an endpoint to do a job search? The functionality on the LI website is a bit limited in my opinion, so I want to be able to get a more comprehensive list that I can analyse by different parameters.
I've checked out the Talent pages, but it seems more geared toward posting, and not searching.
Sing-in with LI also doesn't offer any useful endpoints.
Somewhere someone said something about a service called Voyager, but that doesn't really provide a lot of info, as these pages do.
As far as I'm aware, there is no API available for job searching on LinkedIn*. I did some work with an applicant tracking system (ATS) tool before that integrates with LI to allow posting of job adverts and I think the only APIs are orientated towards posting adverts and that kind of thing**.
I think that over the years since LI was acquired they have gradually scaled down the third party integrations and locked down their services more.

Hi Overstock flow peoples,
I've been in the startup/digital marketing scene and know some things on analytics, html/css, and marketing automations and have recently picked up some SQL/Tableau. Im coming here looking for possibly help/recs on connecting a marketing system/inflow that uses Fare Harbor/Mighty Call/Life 360 and I'm wondering if I could automate things with Zapier (or some other platform), or if I'd have to do it all with development or using APIs or something.
I work with a company that does some travel taxiing/luggage help for travelers. Im looking to see if Zapier (or any other system) would be able to automate some tasks.
So clients book through Fare Harbor, their data goes into our system through Mighty Call, and we give updates to the clients on the drivers ETAs manually through Life360 (like the owner actually TEXTS people directly).
Would anyone here know if there's a way to use Zapier to automate the ETA/communication updates of Life360 through Zapier? (Or would I have to develop something completely on its own to do this?). Or know if there's any other type of software to do this immediately off the top of your head? (etc). Otherwise we have to text all these updates manually and we're trying to get away from doing things that way.
Sorry if this comes off as a rookie post, as its my first direct post on Stack Overflow, although I've used this website a number of times to configure CSS before and other ish (and this isnt my first rodeo). Any advice or direction that could be given would be IMMENSELY helpful.
I'm looking to make a hobbie website using the steam API, mostly focusing on the actual products and not really any user info. According to an article by the man behind Steamspy, Valve decided to change their API sometime in 2018, removing a lot of relevant data related to the store.
I went through the steamworks documentation and the closest thing to any specific information about the applications/games were in:
https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/webapi/ISteamApps -
I figured their API must offer more than just a list of all the apps and their ID's, but thus far I have only found some other API:s.

Seems to be popular in a lot of threads

Some kind of collection of APIs?
https://github.com/Autarc/steam-store/blob/master/README.md
Not sure if this is still usable?

Question: If I want the name, ID, genre/tags and picture of a game (and potentially price), is really the only way to use these non-valve related API:s? Or have I missed something in Valves own API documentation?
I'm super new to API:s so please forgive my insolence, I did search a ton of threads but seeing as the API changed I'm not sure which answers still are up to date in 2020.
The storefront API is still up-to-date and should give you what you need, mostly.
There is no API for game tags. You have to get the directly from the store pages or from any of the third party API providers if they have them.

No, you have not missed anything. Yes you need to use unoffical APIs. Compared to other gaming stores you still get more data on Steam than anywhere else.
I am afraid the last answer is not fully true.
You can get tags as categories or genres through api eg.https://store.steampowered.com/api/appdetails/?appids=306480
Is there any access to the "google-custom-search" for students?
It is for a thesis. I want to implement/use the "normalized google distance" for my dataset. Unfortunately, my university has no general agreement with google.
PS. yes I know I could simply parse the web-page. But it seems to be a bit lame if there is an api for that.
Google discontinued the only paid option of the Custom Search Engine (CSE), so now your only option is 'free' -- in return for seeing a few content-based ads in your custom search results.
The 'pro' option now is the json/atom Search API, also free up to 100 queries per day.
I highly recommend that "anyone who ever uses a search engine", check them both out. It takes minutes to create a custom search - and after that there are countless optional ways to customize or integrate with other (free) tools like Analytics or Sheets/Slides/Forms/etc. If your CSE gets popular enough, they'll start paying you.
Google has a lot of 'products' that many people aren't aware of (most with free options) that.
Side note, since you're a class - Microsoft has some pretty sweet deals for anyone student/teacher with an email address on a school domain ($1000's in free software.)
So, I stepped once at this problem. I had offered a website that used the SoundCloud API. Everything worked properly. Content was extracted from the JSON and placed in the layout of the website. However, I received an email one day from the owner of the website, which indicated that the website did not work properly. I then came out to investigate and came to the conclusion that the "problem" was not on my side, but at SoundCloud's side. I studied on the API page of SoundCloud and came to the conclusion that the API had received a major update, making the link with SC and the site no longer worked.
Lately I'm trying many new APIs to, including those from Instagram and Dribbble. I was therefore wondering if it is at all possible to ensure that such problems can be reduced in the future or it might be appropriate API pages of this third-party APIs to monitor?
There's no "right" answer. After many years of using and maintaining many APIs here are some of the conclusions I've come to:
The best providers let you work with a specific version of their API whose interface and expected behavior never changes. They might release bug fixes and new endpoints, but you can be confident that as long as the API is supported it will not break your system.
A good provider will provide an end-of-life date for each version of their API. It's up to you to keep track of when you need to update.
Paid services will often be supported longer than free services. Plus the contract / SLA will guarantee it remains available for a specific amount of time.
The most popular APIs often have mailing lists and/or blogs. For those that offer it, sign up to be notified of updates. For those that don't you'll have to monitor their blogs or news posts. And I suggest not using any service that would drop support for an API version without warning.
I feel stupid asking this, but does anyone know how to register for a Fandango API key?
I'm trying to make a silly little app that pulls up available movie tickets on Fandango. There's tons of documentation on the internet about how to use their API, but nothing about registering. I tried their registration link on their site, but it just says "Registration is currently disabled":
https://developer.fandango.com/member/register
Do they not allow anyone to get a new API key anymore? Or am I just doing something stupid?
From Fandango:
Unfortunately we don't currently provide direct access without significant anticipated scale of ticket sales. We do offer a couple of alternative options.
You can access a variety of links and widgets via our presence on Commission Junction.
Alternatively, you can license showtime data from Gracenote or CinemaSource, and through that license, you'd be able to link directly to our site.
