I'd like to know how to get the 'notes' field from the Google people API. There's no equivalent in documentation. I tried "biographies" but that didn't return any notes when I called the API for names, emails, etc.
I've seen this question asked a few years ago but I know the API has changed a bit and was hoping someone knows the answer.
Thanks!
Answer
The biographies field still representing the notes
How to check it?
Create a contact setting the notes with a concrete string, i.e. Hey, I'am a note
Call people.connections.list
resourceName = people/me
personFields = names
Get the resourceName to use it later
Call people.get
resourceName = resource from point 3
personFields = biographies
Check the biographies field, it will look something like:
"biographies": [
{
"metadata": {
"primary": true,
"source": {
"type": "CONTACT",
"id": "randomId"
}
},
"value": "Hey, I'am a note",
"contentType": "TEXT_PLAIN"
}
References
people.connections.list
people.get

There is no dynamic content you can get from the SurveyMonkey trigger in Power Automate except for the Analyze URL, Created Date, and Link. Is it possible I could retrieve the data with an expression so I could add fields to SharePoint or send emails based on answers to questions?
For instance, here is some JSON data for a county multiple choice field, that I would like to know the county so I can have the email sent to the correct person:
{
"id": "753498214",
"answers": [
{
"choice_id": "4963767255",
"simple_text": "Williamson"
}
],
"family": "single_choice",
"subtype": "menu",
"heading": "County where the problem is occurring:"
}
And basically, a way to create dynamic fields from the content so it would be more usable?
I am a novice so your answer will have to assume I know nothing!
Thanks for considering the question.
Overall, anything I have tried is unsuccessful!
I was able to get an answer on Microsoft Power Users support.
Put this data in compose action:
{
"id": "753498214",
"answers": [
{
"choice_id": "4963767255",
"simple_text": "Williamson"
}
],
"family": "single_choice",
"subtype": "menu",
"heading": "County where the problem is occurring:"
}
Then these expressions in additional compose actions:
To get choice_id:
outputs('Compose')?['answers']?[0]?['choice_id']
To get simple_text:
outputs('Compose')?['answers']?[0]?['simple_text']
Reference link here where I retrieved the answer is here.

How can I post an image or simple text on the Google Classroom with python (with or without API)?
I've tried to see reference but didn't find anything with python.
Here you can see the documentation. You must inform path parameter courseId and body, something like that:
{
"materials": [
{
"youtubeVideo": {
"id": "w4TJmrOVas4"
}
}
],
"text": "Students: see link for my new neurohealth class."
}
Is there an API call which will returns all recent public tweets regarding for specific location?
I tried GET trends/place but it's WOEID not worked for Sri Lanka and Cities.
(Sri Lanka WOEID is 23424778)
I don't want to use tweeter GET search/tweets.json endpoint because search based on certain key words.
Is there any solution for this?
Finally, I got the answer. We could not get trends on each and every location using tweeter API 1.1.
you have to check our closest trending place using this API call. For Austalia
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/trends/closest.json?lat=37.781157&long=-122.400612831116
the response like be this.
[
{
"country": "Australia",
"countryCode": "AU",
"name": "Australia",
"parentid": 1,
"placeType": {
"code": 12,
"name": "Country"
},
"url": "http://where.yahooapis.com/v1/place/23424748",
"woeid": 23424748
}
]
after that, you can use GET trends/place.
even though you cannot use GET trends/place for geo-based filtering you can use tweeter search endpoint. if you do not want to filter it by keyword ignore the q parameter and use geocodeparameter. for example,
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?result_type=recent&geocode=5.954920,80.554956,12mi
In here mi is miles.
Met problem when using Mandrill API to send transactional newsletters. I chose Handlebars for the template parameters. The user name was shown correctly, but data in the list (post titles) were empty. Please help indicate if anything I did wrong. Thank you!
The template is as below, sent to the endpoint /messages/send.json :
func genHTMLTemplate() string {
return "code generated template<br>" +
"Hi {{name}}, <br>" +
"{{#each posts}}<div>" +
"TITLE {{title}}, THIS {{this}}<br>" +
"</div>{{/each}}"
}
The API log in my Settings panel in mandrillapp.com shows the parameters:
{
"key": "xxxxxxxxxx",
"message": {
:
"merge_language": "handlebars",
"global_merge_vars": null,
"merge_vars": [
{
"rcpt": "xxxxxx#gmail.com",
"vars": [
{
"name": "posts",
"content": [
{
"title": "title A"
},
{
"title": "title B"
},
]
},
{
"name": "name",
"content": "John Doe"
}
]
}
],
:
},
:
}
And below is the email received. "title A" and "title B" are expected after "TITLE".

Hi John Doe,
TITLE, THIS Array
TITLE, THIS Array
Mandrill decided to create custom handlebars helpers with some horrible, HORRIBLE names:
https://mandrill.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/205582537-Using-Handlebars-for-Dynamic-Content#inline-helpers-available-in-mandrill
title and url will definitely give you grief if your objects happen to have keys named title and urlas well. Why they didn't name their helpers something like toTitleCase and encodeUrl is beyond me.
As far as arrays and #each is concerned, you can work around it by using {{this.title}} instead of {{title}}.
After testing with Mandrill's sample code here I found the key "title" just doesn't work. Dunno the reason (a reserved keyword of Mandrill?) but replace it with "title1", "titleX" or something else it can be rendered correctly.
{
"name": "posts",
"content": [
{
"title": "blah blah" // "title1" or something else works
},
}
while using handlebars as the merge language 'title' is the reserved helpername which is used in handlebars which makes your text in title case. If you do only {{title}} by default it considers as title the empty text. try giving it {{title title}} which should work or changing the key name to something else ( if you dont want your title in title case )
I know this is late but it could be of use to someone trying to debug this issue currently. Take note of this point in the Mandrill documentation
There are two main ways to add dynamic content via merge tags: Handlebars or the Mailchimp merge language. You may already be familiar with the Mailchimp merge language from creating and editing Mailchimp templates. We also offer a custom implementation of Handlebars, which is open source and offers greater flexibility.
To set your merge language, navigate to Sending Defaults and select Mailchimp or Handlebars from the Merge Language drop-down menu.
I've run into a similar issue on Sending Blue, where their default configuration does not enable handle bars so it won't evaluate them.
I may be over thinking this a bit. On my web site, I would like to user certain data from my public google calendar. My plan is to pull it on the server side so I can do things like process it, cache it and format it the way I want.
I've been looking at using the Google Api libraries, but I can't get past any of the authorization hurdles. A service account sounds like what I really want, but I'm having trouble wrapping my head around how that works in this situation.
The old GDATA apis would be ok, but I'm not very keen on using them because they look fairly deprecated at this point by the newer libraries.
Since it is all public data, I'm hoping there is a simpler way to get to the event data that I'm looking for.
In case it matters, my site is Asp.Net (MVC).
Update
Ok, I was definitely way over thinking it. See my answer.
Now that RSS has been removed from Google Calendar, I've been in search of an easy replacement. I dug around and found the following in the Google Calendar API that seems to do the trick: calendar.events.list
Calendar Events List in Google API Explorer is a good place to get started with the different parameters and options - and it'll build you an example request string. You can see that I specified a minimum time of 2/5/2016, sort it by the start time, and show deleted events.
GET https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/[CALENDAR ID HERE]/events?
orderBy=startTime&showDeleted=true&singleEvents=true&
timeMin=2016-02-05T00%3A00%3A00Z&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
Results are in JSON so you can parse it in your favorite programming language, ASP.NET or whatever. Result looks like:
{
"kind": "calendar#events",
"etag": "\"123456789123456\"",
"summary": "My Public Calendar",

One good answer to this (the one I'm going with) is to simply use the calendar's public address to get the data. This is an option that I had forgotten about and it works fine for this particular situation.
You can find the url for the data if you go to the settings for a particular calendar and pick the format you want (I went with xml for this situation.)
The data that you get out of this service is very human-reader optimized, but I can make it work for what I'm doing.
