I’m trying to search all film with word “Seven”. It found 50 films. But some films and its description does not contain word “Seven”. For example film with trackId = 421072264 not contain word “Seven”.
Is iTunes search API working correctly?
https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=Seven&entity=movie
I attached response to Search%3DSeven.txt file.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55328092/Search%3DSeven.txt
Yes this is working correctly, the search defaults to a broader set of data to search on when no attribute parameter is specified in the query.
You can reduce the search parameters by setting a value for attribute the the query, however this will still not stop it from returning films with 7 in their title, this seem to just be a quirk of the search algorithm.
https://itunes.apple.com/search?term=Seven&entity=movie&attribute=movieTerm
Weirdly this returns "Fast & Furious 5 - 7 Collection" before "Seven" which doesn't make much sense.
If it needs to be more precise then a id search can be done which would only return the specified movie
https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=534912090
See this link for more details on how to modify the search query and lookup searches:

I have been trying to call Wikipedia API to retrieve page id and wikidata item id using below call and it works fine.
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=pageprops&ppprop=wikibase_item&redirects=1&format=xml&titles=Cat
but I need to retrieve the same information from other languages of my choice for example if I mention German and French languages in my call, it should look for their translation of word Cat and retrieve their page info. There is langlink property in Wikipedia API but somehow it doesn't work with query action along with pageprop.
So ideally, I want something like this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=pageprops&ppprop=wikibase_item&prop=langlinks&lllang=de&lllang=fr&titles=Cat
Any help would be appreciated.
Using lllang twice will just result in the second value overwriting the first one. You'll have to omit the paramter and then you get all the links:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=pageprops|langlinks&ppprop=wikibase_item&titles=Cat
I'm having trouble using the query/search capabilities of Cloud.photos, more specifically, finding a way of search for a string in title field.
After reading this: http://docs.appcelerator.com/cloud/latest/#!/guide/search_query, I was able to perform querys with $regex:
where: {title: {'$regex' : '^' + searchterm}},
But works only if the search term is in the beginning of the title, and it's case sensitive (I'm obviously a complete regex newbie).
Also tried search API with no luck. I didn't find which were the searchable fields.
So, I'm in some sort of dead end. I'm looking for a SQL like similar funcionality, where I can perform a search of a term and if matches regardless of the position and whether it is upper or lower case.
Thanks in advance.

it cannot be done any other way because the query would be too inefficient
Many of the Wiktionary pages for Chinese Characters (Hanzi) include links at the top of the page to other similar-looking characters. I'd like to use the Wiktionary API to send a single character in the query and receive a list of similar characters as the response. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find any query that includes the "See Also" field. Is this kind of query possible?
The “see also” field is just a line of wiki code in the page source, and there is no way for the API to know that it's different from any other piece of text on the page.
If you are happy with using only the English version of Wiktionary, you can fetch the wikicode: index.php?title=太&action=raw, and then parse the result for the template also. In this case, the line you are looking for is {{also|大|犬}}.
To check if the template is used on the page at all, query the API for titles=太&prop=templates&tltemplates=Template:also
Similar templates are avilable in more language editions of Wiktionary, in case you want to use other sources than the English one. The current list is:
br:Patrom:gwelet
ca:Plantilla:vegeu

It has been suggested that the WikiData project be expanded to cover Wiktionary. If and when that happens, you might be able to query theWikiData API for that kind of stuff!
I'm trying to figure out how to force google custom search to give me back 20 results per page.
I've tried to send this REST request configuring my new Custom Search Engine to:
Standard edition: Free, ads are required on results pages.
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=AIzaSyCgGuZie_Xo-hOECNXOTKp5Yk7deryqro8&cx=015864032944730029962:5ipe0q27hgy&q=test&alt=json&num=20
IT NOT WORKS!
but
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=AIzaSyCgGuZie_Xo-hOECNXOTKp5Yk7deryqro8&cx=015864032944730029962:5ipe0q27hgy&q=test&alt=json&num=10
IT WORKS!
But reading documentation at
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/docs/xml_results#numsp
it says that:
Optional. The num parameter identifies the number of search results to return.
The default num value is 10, and the maximum value is 20. If you request more than 20 results, only 20 results will be returned.
Note: If the total number of search results is less than the requested number of results, all available search results will be returned.
Someone has experienced this problem?
PS: I've tried also to send that REST request configuring my new Custom Search Engine to:
Site Search: Starts at $100 per year, ads are optional on results pages.
But nothing has changed no way to obtain 20 results in a request/page
This documentation url has descriptions of each parameter. It also says num is restricted to integers between 1 and 10, inclusive.
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/using_rest#query-params
I am making some PHP code which takes a given search phrase and url and searches through the google search results until it finds the url (only first 100 results). My problem is, this is only working for the US. I have tried adding the "&cr=" option, but it still on returns US results.
The full URL I am using for the request is:
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=API_KEY&cx=CX_VALUE&q=KEYWORD&cr=COUNTRY&alt=JSON
Does anyone have any experience with this? I want to be able to see UK results. Tried inserting &cr=countryUK , but still only does US results.
Thanks :)

Stian
Use the gl=<country code> param to limit it to your country of choice (so gl=gb for the uk).
