I am building a tool to allow users to extract their Google Plus stream as RSS feed.
Unfortunately Google Plus API does not allow to get a list of Google Plus Pages managed by a user.
The tool is using OAuth 2 Authentication, and this allows to get Google ID of the currently logged in user.
What Google API or APIs allows to get a list of of Google Plus Pages IDs managed by a user with a given Google ID?
As of mid-Feb 2014 there is no way of getting list of Pages associated with Authenticated Google Plus account.
Acces to Pages API, that supposedely allows this functionality, is by whitelist only.

I'm trying to download users timeline images (including tweets images). How do i get user images on twitter using Twitter API.
[https://api.twitter.com/labs/2/tweets/1138505981460193280?expansions=attachments.media_keys&tweet.fields=created_at%2Cauthor_id%2Clang%2Csource%2Cpublic_metrics%2Ccontext_annotations%2Centities][1]
This API proved all the details about a single tweet. If any possible solution to get all images from a standard twitter app. Or this feature only available in premium account ?
You can do this using the v2 User timeline endpoint:
twurl "/2/users/786491/tweets?max_results=100&expansions=attachments.media_keys&media.fields=url,media_key"
You can retrieve up to 3200 of the user's most recent Tweets using this method. You can get additional information by adding further fields and expansions to the request, if you need them.
I am trying to create a site where you can login with Google+, but I am having some problems understanding the Google+ API.
Can anyone explain to me how to fetch information, such as e-mail, name, id, etc. or give me a good link for a site where I can find some documentation about this.
Before you suggest me to this site I have already read it but not finding out how to fetch info.
Google+ Sign-In provides users the ability to authorize your application to retrieve data from the Google APIs based on the scopes that you set for your button. When a user authorizes your app, the sign-in callback returns you an OAuth 2.0 access token. This token gives you the ability to queries any of the APIs that your scope granted access to, this is not limited to Google+ APIs. You pass your access tokens to the API when you make requests.
Basically, you read the prereqs and didn't continue reading the API docs for the lower level details specific to the API that you are interested in. In this case, it sounds like you want to retrieve a person's profile (A "Person resource") by using the people.get method. At the bottom of that page are code examples for a variety of languages.
Is there a possibility to create events for Google Plus Communities via an API?
The only related post I could find is this one: Is there an API for the Google Plus Events but it only considers requesting events.
No, the G+ API is currently read-only.
Note: The Google+ API currently provides read-only access to public data. All API calls require either an OAuth 2.0 token or an API key.

I'm working on an app for LinkedIn. I want to access all the information available on the website but the API doesn't return most of them. I was wondering how to get them.
I can use screen scraping but I wonder why the API doesn't return the information when I can easily access it on the website?
For instance this profile has many education information and it's public but none is returned via the API!!!
The LinkedIn API is purposely designed to return certain datasets, some that are only accessible via the website and not the API.
Also, scraping any part of LinkedIn's website or its content is in violation of the LinkedIn API Terms of Use: https://developer.linkedin.com/documents/linkedin-apis-terms-use
I am new to linkedin api. I have a doubt regarding the api.
I am integrating the api in my application, so different user have to register in the linkedin to get the data using that api? Can it be pre registered and the user can get the data whatever he wants.
Suppose user wants to search about company. He will type the company name and will get the names of the company related to search. He should not log in in linked in before searching.
Is it possible?
If you are using the JavaScript API, then yes, you may need to have the user log in each time as the JavaScript API's authorization is cleared every time the user closes their browser.
If you are using the REST API, you can store the user's OAuth token and use that to make the calls on behalf of the user, saving them having to sign-in each time.
