Firebase searching for records via REST - api

I have been getting to grips with the Firebase REST API, but unfortunately can't seem to find a way to search for a record via name, email etc. I see that this may be possible using the JS interface.
Can you tell me if there is a way to do this via REST?

Thanks Frank, it seems NodeJS is the only way to go.

Instagram - Get Direct Message

I'm writting a new post, because all of topics that was related with getting Instagram Direct message via API are a little bit old.
Do anyone knows if there is a possibility of GET Direct Messages via API or in some programatically way?
Right now, it doesn't look like you can. The Instagram Graph API docs don't mention direct messages at all. The old Instagram API never had this.
Take a look to the Component InstagramApiSharp, it contains this functionnality. There are some actions that you can built for the direct message with it.

How to get Google Cloud Translation used Chars via API?G

Google Cloud Text-to-Speech API Authentication from the frontend via API key possible?

The use case is a frontend application that does not have any backend so normally I would expect to use an api key ( https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/api-keys ) but in the complete text to speech documentation ( https://cloud.google.com/text-to-speech/docs/ ) I can't find any information about if (and how) its possible to use api keys for the Cloud Text-to-Speech API.
I don't think its such an uncommon use case to use the text to speech functionality in a standalone frontend (especially with the new WaveNet voices), so I thought I would ask the question here if anyone has some tips where to look for this information or if it's currently really only ment as an API usable in the backend.
If you have the same problem that I am facing right now then I can help you. I have the same issue asked in this question.
If you are using webpage to translate then you have to send your API key in URL of the request. The one way I tried is,
https://texttospeech.googleapis.com/v1beta1/text:synthesize?fields=audioContent&key={Your key goes here}.
I hope this will solve your problem.

Automatic notification without an API

My school is using a website to manage grades, homework and communication with teachers. Because there is no way to get automatic notification, most students have to use it daily to check manually if there's an update (new message, new grade, etc). Since their service has no API, what should I do to get automatic notifications.
Is there any tools available that automatically notify you (by email or rss feed) of any change in a page by authentifying and checking if the value of a specific field changed?
Should I code my own script?
Is there any tool or library out there that could make this task easier?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Not sure if it works for secure websites, though.
I just found something interesting. It's called Scrapy. It's an application framework that makes data-mining and structured data extraction easier.
Has anyone experience with Scrapy? Could it solve my problem?

You can use the API to get data from cj, but the results of the data is for what ever you want to use it for.
Before you start working with API's you should look into programming applications.
