The Google Picker API currently requires the use of third-party cookies. Unfortunately, browsers have begun to block third-party cookies by default.
Are there plans for the Google API script (https://apis.google.com/js/api.js) to not required the use of third-party cookies?
Here's the Google bug: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/188699186
Please star the ticket.
I have exactly the same issue, latest chrome breaks the file picker to open.
As a workaround I have to allow all the cookies, which triggers a reload of the page, then the filepicker could be opened.

I want to create a Firefox Addon using WebExtensions, that will;
Display user, list of already created Firefox profiles
Ability to switch Profile
Just like User Agent Switcher (it was built on top of Mozilla Addon SDK). Watch https://www.screencast.com/t/Zj4AkTmFfA
I am unable to find any api reference over https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions to access profiles list or switch profile.
Not sure if Mozilla is going to remove accessing Firefox profiles from within WebExtensions like they have restricted access to Firefox preferences (about:config).
I'm afraid there is no API, at the moment, to deal with user profiles. Other than the list on MDN, there's a list of APIs that have been approved and are being implemented.
However, there is one mid-term possibility: you can file a bug to request the support for a new API. This doesn't necessarily mean that your request will be implemented, but it does mean that it will be at least discussed. There's a guide here on how to do that.
If none of these options address your situation, you can consider
filing an API request. Before you do, please keep in mind:
The goal of WebExtensions is not to support every use case from legacy extensions. In most cases, the functionality you need can be
built with WebExtensions APIs, but it requires some re-thinking and
modification.
Generic or very broad bugs are hard to turn into actionable issues. Try to limit the focus if possible.
We do try to review all incoming API requests, but it takes time, so please be patient.
Do a search to see if the bug exists already.
Still want to file a new API? You can do so here.
Please note that there are ideas for filesystem access post Firefox 57: this could potentially be used to at least show the different user profiles.
I'm trying to develop a Xamarin project wich is able to stream on youtube.
I want to get the rtmp url from the user account.
But, recently google has disabled webviews to authorize apps to get accesstoken and others user data.
I have tried to use Xamarin Auth but unfortunately, it actually use a webview.
(getUI() is returning a webview).
So i'm asking if someone know how to authentificate a user with google without webviews ?
I have also tried using custom tabs but I can't get the url to get the access token because the NavigationEvent is not fired when a new page is loaded.
Xamarin.Auth 1.4.x supports Custom Tabs and SafariViewController, but no Xamarin.Forms support what most of the users want.
Xamarin.Forms support is in the 1.5.0-alpha soon to be released.
Samples extracted from the repo:
https://github.com/moljac/Xamarin.Auth.Samples.NugetReferences
Try ComicBook (Xamarin.Forms) or Providers (Traditional/Standard).
Nuget packages tuning can be problematic, just bump versions to the highest.
I am developing a mozilla addon and now I have to record the browser session for a specific time as a video and sent it to the server. The recording of the web session will be triggered and stopped from my addon. How would I record the web session? Whether any jquery plugins are need to be added to my addon or is there any other source that addon sdk provides?
I got this working in an addon with about: pages, but I had to trick it into thinking it was https. The addon is a 27mb due to the inclusion of ffmpeg.js for converting video to different formats. So right now to download it you have to from my dropbox - https://www.dropbox.com/s/soemrqn2smmcge2/dist.xpi?dl=0
The code is here on github - https://github.com/Noitidart/Screencastify/

I've just stumbled onto Google Safe Browsing lookup API and will admit this seems to be a bit above my head, but I still would like to learn how to use it.
I've read through the get-started documentation, but I am still confused on where to actually begin.
I've created an API key to access it, which gave me a link.
I've pasted that link into Google Chrome, and it downloaded a file, which I opened in Google Chrome on my Win 7 machine.
This is where I am stuck, where is the API?
How do I actually paste URL's into the API to see if they are malicious or not?
So, if you're still wondering about this 6 months later an API is a way of interacting with a site not through your browser. You don't need to worry about it if you're using Chrome or Firefox since the browser will do it for you.
However, you know how a website for a bar will have a small google maps box with the map of the area? The application (website) sent a get request to the Google Maps API. The simplest way you do this at home is with your terminal or command line. That's where you would type in the url you're trying to check.
I'm wondering if anyone can help with this.
I'm creating a site for a client using Google Sites (A requirement they set).
One of their requirement is for a contact form to be embedded on the site. I've had a look and there are plenty out there, however, if a user visits from any version of IE the content is not displayed due to the security settings.
All other browsers are functioning fine.
I know the alternative is to simply put a link to an external source, but is not ideal.
My question is threefold fold.
1. Is it possible to write a gadget that will work for IE with non-secure content (if so how)?
2. Are there any HTTPS contact forms out there that I could use?
3. Does anyone have any experience with Google sites and trying to load non-secure content and have any tips?
Thanks
Have you tried JotForm.com? They have the same (free and premium) plans as emailmeform.com. Plus, they have a specific roundabouts to embed your form in Google Sites (they have a gadget made for Google Sites). And yes, JotForm has https url for their forms if you wish to embed it as an iframe.
-- One other solution is resort to using Google Docs form.
Does anyone have any experience with Google sites and trying to load
non-secure content and have any tips? Still awaiting people with
experience....
-- Yes, I have experienced this while trying to put some social media scripts in my Google Sites website and the best thing really was to rid my Sites of those non-secure contents.
For any interested I have kind of answered my questions.
Is it possible to write a gadget that will work for IE with non-secure content (if so how)?
It is possible but you need to have a SSL hosted server.
Are there any HTTPS contact forms out there that I could use?
There are paid solutions for this. Alternatively, write your own html code to post to one of these solutions (free solution is http://www.emailmeform.com/)
