I was searching in Google APIs a way to download my map (google.com/mymaps). By downloading a map I mean POIs. I found nothing except the Google mapsengine api, but there are 2 problems:
map id of my map is not suitable for mapsengine api - https://developers.google.com/maps-engine/documentation/reference/v1/maps/getPublished returns 404
maps creation in maps engine is not so easy as it is in my maps.
The problem is my client wants an Android App that shows map he created before. And he wants to create it using google my maps.
Question is there any API that allows me to download that data? Or if there is not - what is the best way to fetch that map?
The only idea that comes to my mind is to download map KML file, but I'd prefer to use REST api if possible.
There is no API for Google MyMaps at this time. Vote up this feature request if you want to see it happen.

I've been using "classic" My Maps because they had API go access all Maps and their data. But recently I have received an email telling me that all maps will be migrated soon to the new "Google Engine Lite" "My Maps". In fact, my apps have stop working because the previous APIs don't work anymore.
I've been looking for the equivalent API for the maps without any luck.
I have a test application that can use OAuth to access my "new" maps. But, when listing maps just those created with the new "Maps Engine" show up. Not any of the "My Maps" do.
It's critical for me to know if there is any equivalent API for the new "My Maps". Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I had a basic programme which take an vimeo url, grab the id and get json information about the video (via "http://vimeo.com/api/v2/video/"+id+".json" ) .
But now, the consumer is using videopro, and ofc , vimeopro don't work with the simple api.
So the question is: Is there a vimeoPro simple api? Where ? i didn't find it :s.
Had i to use the advances API who use OAuth (feel sad for so few thing)? Is there a simple API ? etc.

Vimeo PRO works just fine with the simple API. The issue with the simple API is that it will never contain private videos. So if your Vimeo PRO customer has public videos, those will be accessible.
To access private videos, we need to make sure you have permission to see the videos. This permission system is supported in the new API (developer.vimeo.com/api) with OAuth 2.
It sounds a little complicated at first, but it can be as easy as the simple API.
Create an API APP
Generate a token on your app page under the Authentication header
Make an API request with the access token : https://api.vimeo.com/me?access_token=XXXXX
it's seems that it's not possible for private video : see below

An other way is to use oEmbed.

Google Play has Newsstand application (not available everywhere) - https://play.google.com/store/newsstand. It replaces older Currents application. It displays news/articles from many different websites/magazines/feeds.
Does any, official or unofficial, API exist, that would let me use those sources in my own application?
As far as official APIs go, unfortunately Google doesn't provide anything if their API Explorer is any indication. Google News used to have an API, but it was deprecated in 2011.
The closest thing to what I think you're looking for, assuming you want to stick with Google, would be the RSS output from Google News. You can pass an optional query parameter to search for specific topics. For example:
https://news.google.com/news?q=obama&output=rss
If you're looking for a similar service to Play Newsstand that offers an API, check out these:
Some individual sources offer APIs, such as the NYTimes and USA Today
Feedly has a nice-looking API, although I have never used it personally.
Good luck with your search!

I'm working on a class project and since I'm new to web APIs on Android, I've asked around looking for a sample Google books Intent that I can use in my android project. I even tried using JSON but have no clue as to how to go on. I'll love it if anyone can help me with a sample google code android class to just fetch content using uri.
Thanks,
you must register to google API and get API key
https://code.google.com/apis/console/?pli=1#project:713668701465
in services link => ON Books API
in API Access link => under Simple API Access get API KEY
And follow this instructions
https://developers.google.com/books/
ex: www.googleapis.com/books/v1/volumes?q=isbn:1419705849&key={your api key}

I would like to use Google Search to power my site search, without having to use Google-supplied JavaScript or overly-specific (if they need me to say “Powered by Google,” that’s fine). I don’t want to send users to Google’s domain, and I don’t want them to see a Google Custom Search logo.
Is there an API for this?
There is a Google AJAX Search API, which can also be used by a server-side application:
http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/documentation/#fonje
The problem with this, however, is that it's limited to 64 results per query, if I remember correctly.
the normal google search API
- http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/documentation/#fonje for non javascript (a.k.a. mostly for server side)
- with the sitesearch parameters
the downsite is, with google custom search you have access to something called on demand index a.k.a. you can create and access a more complete index of your site, with the search api above you have only access to the normal google index, which does not offer on demand index
There are examples on the google code playground. You can figure out the url its calling using firebug or some similar tool.
