I'm building an application where users can upload pictures. All I require is for the user to upload the initial photo, and manage the title, description, tags and spatial data for kml. The ability to upload videos would be nice.
These pictures will be used as part of a custom google map application.
I'm more interested in the effectiveness of apis vs. which service is better, as long as the above requirements can be met.
I've read that the Flickr api is great, but I'm looking for some firsthand info from those who have worked with both apis.
The other option is of course to manage this data inside the application.
I'm working with .net and jquery.
Thanks!
I've decided to go with Picasa, simply because I'm already using the goolge api with Youtube. Also, Picasa allows for simple google maps integration - all I have to do is add a GeoRss overlay to the rss feed from the album.

I have self-written API where urls are organized like:
GET /api/products
PUT /api/products/1
So there are controllers (ProductController.php, for example) and these controllers have four methods: get, post, put and delete.
Is this a right way to organize rest api?
If so, how to organize registration/authorization? Because both actions use POST method
Yes. I would recommend looking at how big companies are doing this kind of work. See how Github is structuring their API
Relies on what kind of authentication/authorization you want to use. Most companies choose Oauth with JWT, you could also use session-based authentication. For me, it's not clear what you exactly want to do. Maybe you can elaborate on that.

I've already read a lot about it, but I'm particularly interested for Laravel and its price difference.
We run a web application based on Laravel and this already with the Google Cloud App Engine. For our web application we need a solid database. Here the question arose, which one?
What are the main differences between Firebase and GCP SQL? How is this reflected in the price?
I'd recommend heading into this GCP Databases page which has a cool matrix on what are the differences between solutions on GCP. It really depends on what kind of data you have and how scalable the solution needs to be.
There is also a nice decision diagram on this blog post which can be seen below. It feels like instead of using Firebase Realtime DB or Cloud Datastore, one should now be using the Firestore which is also integrated into the GCP UI experience.

I'm working on a webshop. And would like to add the feature to be able to post product images to the shops Instagram account when a new product is added.
The thing is that the Instagram API does not seems to allow to post images. Either does the official Instagram Website. And a Google Search gives me multiple SO QA which says the same.
But at the same time, there seems to be a ton of websites, applications, and services and other non-emulators who let you post to Instagram (to mention a few: http://techwiser.com/effectivly-use-instagram-on-pc-upload-pics-bluestacks/ and http://dskgrm.com/ is another one, there also seems to be some WordPress plugins who does it ex. https://github.com/roladn/wordpress-to-instagram but I'm not too good with eirhet PHP or WordPress to be able to tell how they have done it.).
And before anyone reports it as a duplicate. I do not consider this a duplicate since all other QA simply states that it is not possible via the API, but obviously, it is possible somehow, and I'm wondering how.
So I simply wondering how people are successfully implementing this feature when either the API or the official website allows it?
No official way to post media to Instagram doesn't mean that there is no way to do this.
If you are a developer you could simply reverse engineering the Instagram API and build some software to use that, otherwise you could just use some tools already developed.
PHP
mgp25/Instagram-API
Python
b3nab/instapy-cli
And if this don't fit your needs you can go to github and search some other softwares already developed.

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 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.
Thinqs
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.
