I'm working on a project that takes users' locations and hobbies and then finds people with similar hobbies near them as my project.
I read many articles and posts about google API and google geo-shedder but I'm kind of confused about it.
can anyone help me or point me in the right direction?
thankyou

I'm trying to make a program to submit my google classroom work quicker (as a student). I've read the google classroom API but it's very oriented to teachers and I don't know if my idea is posible.
I would be very thankful if someone can help me!
No it is not possible.
The reason, unless you used the same program that created the assignment, you will not have the proper developer authentication permissions.
You can read more here: https://developers.google.com/classroom/reference/rest/v1/courses.courseWork.studentSubmissions/turnIn
If you want to experiment and learn how the process goes, possibly even test different approaches, I recommend this post:

So I am having a bit of a problem. I am currently making a google form sign up sheet. The only thing is I only want people to have the ability to sign up for certain things if they meet a certain criteria stated in our google sheets document. Currently, I have a spreadsheet email list, of everyone who has been approved. When filling out a google form I want it to block someone from signing up for a spot if they don't meet the approval criteria. Here is an example question.
If the volunteer is not registered in our google sheets database to be a driver then I want the google forms to block them from choosing that option. I understand script for the most part, I am just unsure how to link the two together. Please let me know if this is possible. If it is, then any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
How? Easiest method?
Tried using postman on desktop, googles OAuth2 playground and google help pages to try make sense of what to do. Ended up using GAM as this is the easiest and gives the most helpful responses.
I have tried changing this from multiple places and i always get the error:
ERROR: 400: #UserInIllegalDomain Invitation cannot be created for user in this domain - failedPrecondition
the command:
gam update course 8077159861 owner hiddenusername#longleypark.ac.uk
(username is DEFINITELY correct ive just hidden it as its not vital information)
Any help would be much appreciated, from what i can tell some guides said to add longleypark.ac.uk to whitelisted domain under classroom but because this is the primary domain for this g suite it says you cant add your current domain so this isnt an option.
I believe the google API is broken. If anyone can prove otherwise would be a great help.
Google API support haven't managed to give me any proper response, keep saying they will test and let me know but I haven't been informed of any results yet.
Google forums support has informed me once a user account is deleted and 20 days have passed the account becomes unrecoverable which means any classrooms they are the owner of become "orphans" which means "limited functionality" and the inability to change the owner ever again, the only solution is to recreate the classroom from scratch, unfortunately along with the original account all the documents submitted to that classroom are also lost.
There are NO ways around this even though the ownerId field for a classroom really should be editable from some sort of database management tool or admin console/API.
I have run into this problem today. Thought using the API I'd be able to swap the ownerId, but no.
Bizarre that Google don't let you do this as a Google Workspace admin. We know have 3 GCSE sets which are unusable with 3 months of the 2 year course left. Very frustrating.
For a project, I need to get following information from a Google+ brand page
count reviews
get rating
get reviews
get reviews time stamps
contact information
I have tried finding some API on developers.google.com but failed to get such API. Is there any other way around to get this data? It sounds like a dumb question, but unfortunately I stuck and getting no help from anywhere, that's why I am writing here.
Thanks

You can download a bunch of libraries here that make using these api's pretty simple.
https://developers.google.com/+/downloads/
Look around the pages they also have plenty of example.

I am researching whether the following is possible and if so how I could go about achieving it.
We collect reviews for businesses from their customers and we’d like to post these reviews to Google places as part of the reviews they have on their.
I was wondering how I would go about getting our website to “push” this data to the Google places website, I’ve done lots of searching on the APIs but have found nothing that says it’s possible or not.
Currently the Google Places API does not have write capability. It only has read capability. Right now only ratings are available, but I suspect reviews might come someday too.
Although you can send check-in signals and fix Places through the API. Hopefully Google will add the ability to send reviews and receive them.
If you're looking to get your content added to Google, you may want to talk to their content partnerships teams http://www.google.com/support/mapcontentpartners/
Since Google's local and maps initiatives are under the same people that would be the place to go.
I too looked into this as it would be of huge value to companies if possible.
My research led me to believe that it is not possible and could possibly violate Google's TOA with negative results for the company's Places page.
Instead, I built a workaround that makes it really easy for companies to collect feedback and get their own customers to submit the reviews: http://dallasmarketingservices.com/survey-local-unveiled-how-online-reviews-affect-your-local-business/
Maybe we will see this in the future though.
