How to FInd Google Hangouts Coversation Id - hangouts-chat

I'm trying to find a conversation id since I want to make a Google Hangouts/Chat bot but I can find it I remember it being there before in the Url but now its gone? I'm Using the 3rd party Hangups API.I know this is a duplicate but no one answered my previous question

You can use Method: spaces.list to get the list of spaces available. As the documentation says: A space in Google Chat is a generalization of chat rooms and direct messages.

Wechat : does an SDK / API exists?

I'm online on wechat (an instant messenger, not to be confused with weechat, that is an IRC client) and following a lot of groups for work. I'm searching for an SDK, an API set, to be able to automitize info collecting from groups and or individuals.
But i'm not aware of any way to do it.
Please, this is NOT an 'opinion' question, I'm litterally asking you if you know a way to receive data from weechat, because I cannot find it.
I see the area on weechat website where a company can ask for accces to API, but, really I cannot find other tools.
Edit 1: Chinese DOC, I think: https://open.weixin.qq.com/cgi-bin/showdocument?action=dir_list&t=resource/res_list&verify=1&id=open1419318183&token=&lang=zh_CN
Edit 2: Chinese DOC more similar to a JS api :http://work.weixin.qq.com/api/doc#10029/%E5%A4%96%E9%83%A8%E8%81%94%E7%B3%BB%E4%BA%BA%E9%80%89%E4%BA%BA%E6%8E%A5%E5%8F%A3
Obviously, use google translator !
As from my OP, there are some docs, official docs, but the real problem is that to create even a simply Mini Program, we need to subscribe (paid) and also paying at one point a chinese-only page asks by country and the list simply does not include Italy, so I simply cannot subscribe.

How to get description for Google API nearbysearch items

I am developing a web app for client requirement in that i am using Google API for finding nearby place
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=.....
I was able to get all the required details. Name, rating, etc but only description is missing. will i be able to get it from anywhere, i tried
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/json?query=...
but not getting required result only country or place is getting here not restaurant or venue description. Please help me to get details for each item in nearby search result. Or any other suggestions
Based on the documentation of both Google Places API Nearby Search Requests and Google Places API Text Search Requests, description property is not included in the returned results. You could rather file for a Feature Request to include description to each returned places in the results here at Google Public Issue Tracker.
Issue Tracker is a tool used internally at Google to track bugs and
feature requests during product development. It is available outside
of Google for use by external public and partner users who need to
collaborate with Google teams on specific projects.
You can learn more about Issue Tracker through this link.
I would also like to suggest to read Google Places API Place Details. It returns more comprehensive information about the indicated place such as its complete address, phone number, user rating and reviews.
Hope this help!

Leave Reviews via Google Places API

Does the Google Places API allow writing of reviews via third party websites/apps? I'm tired of asking customers to leave reviews on Google, Yelp, Thumbtack, and Facebook for local businesses.
I've scoured all the documentation, but can't find an answer.
https://developers.google.com/places/
If it's not possible, has anyone ever had success asking Google to change a policy?
No, it's not possible. You can add places, but these are only available in your own application (unless they get added enough to be added 'globally').
When it's just about reviews, there are other apis present.
Asking google to change a policy? I've tried to have my country added to google and despite they actually have a data center present, it look them over 4 years to add it to their view of the world...
Here on Google places issue tracker is the actual issue on their bug tracker. As of april 2016 it says PendingFurtherReview. Star it for updates.

how can I make an app the displays all permanent google+ hangouts and the people in them?

I'm completely new to using the Google+ apis and the quickstart guides are a bit confusing (i tried the ruby version since i'm probably most familiar there. looks like this: https://github.com/googleplus/gplus-quickstart-ruby)
and I've also looked at the google hangout apis - but those seem to be more for augmenting hangouts (i.e. once you're in a hangout, you'd see the extension, etc. you built).
what I'd like to do is create a place for everyone at my company to log in and see a list of all the permanent hangouts I've created and see who's currently joined that hangout (and which hangouts are available for a meeting).
I'm really sorry for the question but any help getting started is appreciated.
There is currently no API that is officially provided that can tell you what hangouts are currently available. If you are interested in seeing one, you may wish to see if the feature has been requested at https://code.google.com/p/google-plus-platform/issues/list and, if not, request it.
Your question, however, seems to have an assumption that I'm not entirely sure is valid. What do you mean by a "permanent hangout"? In general, hangouts are created and destroyed on an ad-hoc basis (although there are some exceptions).
One of those exceptions are for hangouts that are tied to calendar events (as you note). In these cases, you can use the Calendar API to get the Event resource and get the hangout URL from that (see https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/v3/reference/events and related pages for the API), but it still won't report who is in a hangout at any given time.
One way you can approach what you're doing is to have your website have virtual meeting topics and when someone joins one of these topics, they run an app that reports back to your website the URL of the hangout they're in. Your website can then include this "room information" as associated with the topic on the website for others to see. This solution is outlined in the video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Al4SbeVyLm4.

Google API: show online contacts for Google Talk/Chat and Google Hangout

I might have overlooked this, but I'd like to implement Google Talk and Google Hangout on my site and I'm looking for some kind of (official, preferably PHP) API call that retrieves the online/offline contacts of a Google+ user. (similar to the list of online contacts next to Gmail)
Is this API functionality available and is it possible to provide the user with the option to select contact(s) to start a Google Hangout with?
To start, you're likely going to need to leverage a few different APIs. Since I cannot add a comment to ask questions, here's a recommended reading list based on my recent work with the Plus & Hangouts APIs:
Google Plus - https://developers.google.com/+/api/latest/people/list - Collect a list of people in your circles. This will not tell you who's online or offline. May be optional (see #2). Unfortunately, this call is not available yet in the PHP Client Library, so I created one for my personal project and am waiting on some vetting to submit it back to the Google project. If you're interested, I'd be happy to share.
Google Talk - https://developers.google.com/talk/ - Use that query the Talk service to see who's online and/or offline.
Starting a Hangout - Seems this discussion # the developer group is similar to your question and can best point you in a good starting direction. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-plus-developers/r_f7iweZ7c8
Hope that helps & curious to hear how it goes!
