This is a surprisingly simple question, but I am unable to find the answer despite a solid search.
How are APIs added to the Google APIs Explorer Directory?
Google has an api called the google discovery services api this api contains a list of most of their apis
So by adding a record for a new api in descovery services it shows up in explorer
Only Developers at Google can add an entry to the Google API Directory

I would like to get a list of all the APIs, which are enabled for my project in Google Developer Console. Is there any way?
PS: I know there is a Google Discovery API, which can be used. But I would rather not apply a filter myself.
The discovery services API returns a list of all available Google APIs and has nothing to do with your project on Google Developer console.
There is not currently an API that will give you access to the enabled APIs within a project on Google Developers console. You will have to check manually on the website yourself.
I am confused about the features, functionality, and boundaries of a Google API project. A single Google API project can have many credentials.
If your apps will all be using the same APIs, why would you want to create separate projects?
When or under what conditions should you create additional credentials fo the same project?
Base on Google Doc: Before you can send requests to Google Apps Activity API, you need to tell Google about your client and activate access to the API. You do this by using the Google Developers Console to create a project, which is a named collection of settings and API access information.
As above, Each API project is a named collection of settings and API access information. You can read this
I want to do the following things in my iOS app:
Let a user create a new Google Spreadsheet, or choose from a list of
existing Google Spreadsheets
Let my app read data from a Google Spreadsheet
Let my user edit a Google Spreadsheet, either by embedding the
spreadsheet, or by switching over to Safari or a Google app.
There are a lot of Google APIs out there…which should I look at to accomplish the above three tasks?
Thanks!
You need the Drive API to create sheets: https://developers.google.com/drive/
You need the Sheets API to work with them (editing the file): https://developers.google.com/google-apps/spreadsheets/?hl=en
You can find information on how to authenticate your Google requests (OAuth2) in the linked pages. The Drive API is built into the Google play services library but you'll need to get the Sheets API separately.
if Google Drive API will be supported by access to Spreadsheet API
Or it's will be new Spreadsheet API like we have
https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/#p/
Similar to developers.google.com/google-apps/spreadsheets/
https://code.google.com/p/google-api-javascript-client/
Google Drive API allows you to do CRUD (create,read, update,delete) functions to google drive. This is similar to the Google Documents List API for Google Docs and is the latest evolution. To actually edit or retrieve the contents inside a spreadsheet you must still use the Spreadsheet api which you listed above. The latest versions of the spreadsheet api also use Oath2 just like the Drive api.
I know its silly, but previously this URL used to show me all available google open source API's Pervious working API link but now its showing some other page. I am tired of searching the complete API directory. I want to pick one to learn. I have managed to find a similar page which shows only partial API's directory. Google API directory Can any one provide me the correct URL to see complete directory?
I must admit, it's a mess if you take a fresh start.
Accessing Google Apis can be basically be done in two ways.
The old way : Google Data Java Client Library (a.k.a. "gdata-java-client") : docs here. Implemented services can be found at Google Api Docs (the link you are referring to).
The new way : Google API Client Library for Java (a.k.a. "google-api-java-client") : docs here. The Api explorer shows the generated client libraries using the new infrastructure. Or this list.
Both libraries are available for different languages and for different Google services. GData is the most mature library and supports most services.
The new way however is more flexible : the client libraries and even the docs can be automatically generated for any Google service that is ready to transition to the new infrastructure. On the downside, not all Google services have a client library ready for the new infrastructure (e.g. Contacts).
You can access services that are not yet transitioned but you have to write your own XML model.
There is a migration guide to move from GData to new infrastructure.
try to find it on this page:

or you can explore some apis here: (i don't know if thats all)
http://code.google.com/apis/explorer/
or just search what you need on:
