We can get text extract of different pages in a single wiki api call by using pipe character ( | ).
For eg : http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?format=json&action=query&prop=extracts&exlimit=max&explaintext&exintro&titles=Yahoo|Google&redirects=
By using this api call, we can get datas about Google and Yahoo in text format. Here we get datas of both Google and Yahoo in a single api call.
I want to get image urls of both Google and Yahoo in a single wiki api call.
Is there any method to get all image urls of different pages in a single wiki api call?
Yes, just switch prop=extracts to prop=images. Works exactly the same way:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=Yahoo|Google&prop=images
The full documentation is here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Properties
To get the url of an image, use prop=imageinfo&iiprop=url for the corresponding file page.
Finally, you can combine it all in one single request, by using the prop=images result as a generator for the prop=imageinfo call:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=url&generator=images&titles=Google|Yahoo!
There are some warning because you are missing the format=json. So the correct is
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=imageinfo&format=json&iiprop=url&generator=images&titles=Google|Yahoo

I'm looking at the API documentation here,
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Query
Getting the wikitext for a page is mentioned in the beginning of the documentation,
The action=query module allows you to get information about a wiki and the data stored in it, such as the wikitext of a particular page, the links and categories of a set of pages, or the token you need to change wiki content.
but I cant seem to figure out what parameters to pass in the API request to return the wikitext for a given page. Anyone know how to do this?
I've tried parameters like,
{'action':'query', 'titles':'Anarchism', 'prop':'wikitext', 'format':'json'}
You must use this query .
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=revisions&rvprop=content&format=json&titles=Anarchism&rvslots=main
I'm experimenting with the Wikipedia API and was trying to get the full urls for all images on a particular page, in this example Google's main page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google).
I found the page id through the use of another API and then attempted to use this information in the following API to get the full urls of all images on that page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&pageids=1092923&generator=images&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=url|dimensions|mime&format=xml
I get some of the page images from this but cannot understand why I am not getting all - specifically the logo which is what I was most interested in. Apologies I am aware that there are similar questions which have been asked but I was not able to find one which would assist me here.
The API does not give you all results at once, it defaults to 10 results. You see in the beginning answer that you have a value for the parameter gimcontinue. If you use it like this you get more images: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&pageids=1092923&generator=images&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=url|dimensions|mime&format=xml&gimcontinue=1092923|Google_bike.jpg
Alternatively, you can ask for more images at once using gimlimit like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&pageids=1092923&generator=images&prop=imageinfo&iiprop=url|dimensions|mime&format=xml&gimlimit=500
Is there any way to search or structure a url in Google+ to get all posts that link to or reference a URL or domain? Similar to the way you can do it in Pinterest like http://pinterest.com/source/domain.com
This structured query does not get nearly everything: https://plus.google.com/u/0/s/domain.com
Google+ does not offer a specific API for getting posts that reference a specific URL or host. As Joanna mentions, you can use the activites.search method to do a full text search based on any given string, which could be a URL.
Google+ does not offer a URL that you can use to search to target specific shares. However, you can use the Google+ API to make an activities.search API call, where you can specify a query, which does a full text search. The API will return the public posts that contain the matched text.
I need to get Google search results for particular filetypes.
For example, in browser I would directly google search for "hyperloop filetype:pdf" and it will list out PDF files for "Hyperloop".
For this, my Google Custom Search request URI will be https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=MY_KEY&cx=MY_UNIQUE_ID&q=hyperloop&fileType=pdf
However, currently I would like to get search results for "hyperloop" of filetypes .ppt or .doc.
In browser, I would achieve this by googling "hyperloop filetype:ppt OR filetype:doc".
What will be my Search request URI equivalent for this query?
I could not find anything related to querying using multiple values for a single parameter in Google Custom Search Documentation.
Rather than doing
q=hyerloop&filetype=pdf
you can use
q=hyperloop%20filetype:pdf%20OR%20filetype:doc
use this its work
$url='https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key=AIzaSyCJUGIb_tevRKD-Kxxi5f4&cx=010407088:onjj7gscy2g&q='. urlencode($keywords).'&filetype=doc&filetype=docx';
for me
How can i use Google search api to get like on the google engine, title of website,a short description and URL. Is it possible?
I tried the api but it gives me only some information that doesn`t have a url or title to a website.
Using the Google shopping api, you can retrieve the title, short description and url. I've achieved this in a c# application where it returns a json file from the url below and parse over it.
You need a apiId to start with.
Using this url you can add search parameters after the q, in this example just searching for digital camera.
https://www.googleapis.com/shopping/search/v1/public/products?key=key&country=US&q=digital+camera
See http://code.google.com/apis/shopping/search/v1/getting_started.html
for more details
I'm not sure that I have enough information, but I find the Google Custom Search API reference page has the reference JSON/ATOM examples:
https://code.google.com/apis/customsearch/v1/reference.html
This query will get you started:
https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?key={YOURAPIKEY}&cx={cx?}&cref={cref?}&q=st%20olaf
Does this get you started?
Take care!
