I am building a custom rally app, and I need to send out email notifications from it. Is there any way to send emails using the Rally API? so I don't have to use a third party service like Mandrill or Mailjet. Thank you.
There is no way to do this through the Rally API.

I have to send an otp to the user's email using twilio. Is there a proper way to do it? I cannot find any proper documentation aur blog telling me how to do it. I am working on react-native android project.
Twilio developer evangelist here.
The documentation for sending verification codes to an email address using Twilio Verify is here: https://www.twilio.com/docs/verify/email.
As #spicy.dll has mentioned, you should make the API requests to Twilio from a server you control and not from your React Native application. If you make requests from your React Native app you would need to embed the API credentials somehow, and a malicious user could decompile your application, extract your credentials and abuse your Twilio account.
So, follow the docs above, host the code that calls the API and your credentials on a server and make requests to that server from your application.
We have a mobile application and end users are authenticated via Firebase.
Current behaviour
While onboarding users, we register every user on Firebase with an email and a mobile phone.
Once the user is created on Firebase we the use the link generation API generateSignInWithEmailLink and send an email to the users.
Users click on the email from their mobile phone and it automatically launches the App.
Desired behaviour
Instead of sending an authentication link in the email, we would like to use the SMS token validation feature of Firebase
This is very easily down via a browser based application.
How do we implement such a feature that on Android/Ios?
Option
We provide a custom backend HTTP end point which gets called by the user
From this backend, we instruct the Firebase Admin SDK to send a new SMS authentication token to the have any endpoint which allows the back end to send a SMS authentication token to the end user's mobile.
Is this possible? At first glance, I could not find anything in the documentation.
Thanks

Firebase does not provide a generalized service for verification via SMS. You will have to find another service for that.
We are building SAAS platform like Shopify. Now we would like our customers to install MailChimp on their store just like Shopify customer installs on their store.
When I was trying MailChimp on Shopify platform, i noticed somehow Shopify receives some key/token from MailChimp when installation completes and then Shopify uses this key/token to update MailChimp list of that store whenever some events occurs. That's what we are looking to build.
I tried MailChimp API (on Playground) with the generated key. But, this API creates store, list etc under my account, then how do i enable this against our customer's MailChimp account?
I would greatly appreciate it if you kindly give me some feedback.
Both Shopify and MailChimp use OAuth to exchange API credentials for users accounts between each other.
In your case, you should probably check out MailChimps OAuth 2 documentation on this topic.
When it comes to integrating MailChimp with your SaaS, your application as to acts as a client to MailChimp. Use OAuth to let your users connect their MailChimp account to your application and store the Refresh and Access Tokens in your database. This allows you to make requests to the MailChimp API to access your user's MailChimp data.
Can I integrate Outlook with Yammer in such a way that people in my contacts (Outlook) can be directly added in a group on Yammer ?
Or can I forward a mail directly to a user on Yammer as a message?
Is it possible to create an application that allows me to exchange data between Yammer and Outlook?
What you are looking at seems totally possible for me. I believe the best approach would be to register your app with Azure AD. Both Yammer and Outlook REST APIs can be discovered with Azure AD, see this link for example.
So now that you know that you will target Azure AD with OAUTH flow. You have to ask yourself if you want your app to do the requests or your web server will do it (see OAUTH flow "implicit" vs "code authorization").
is there a way to get emails from google, send emails, and add contacts to the address book using the google API?

You can access mail from Google (and most other mail providers) via IMAP and mail can be sent via SMTP. You can use the Pantomime Framework for these protocols.
