I'm looking for an api or another way to grab posts (not reviews) from google my business and embed them to a website. We don't want to have to place the updates/posts at two different places...google my business and the actual website.
I'm already grabbing reviews using the google places API but didn't find any solutions for actual posts
appreciate any directions to the end result...thank you
You can do this through the Google My Business API
The method to fetch Google My Business posts is accounts.locations.localPosts.list

I wonder if I can get working places for all users from organization using calendar API. Coworkers from my organization uses google calendar to mark if they work from home or office. I attach screen to show what I am talking about.
I've searched many endpoints from calendar API but did not find suitable one. Is it possible to get those information from API?
It is not yet possible to retrieve those information from the API.
But Google already documented it (tutorial, API reference) and it should come at some point in the (hopefully) near future.
Here is the related issue in their tracker : https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/199918380
I've been cheerfully plus-one-ing all the good photos that my family and I share with each other (shared only to my family circle, not public). I assumed that at some point I'd be able to retrieve all +1'd photos and create a physical family album... however it looks like there's no way through the Google+ UI to actually retrieve that information:

Is there any API that allows you to retrieve the currently authenticated user's +1s?
As far as I can tell there is no way to see what you have +1ed you can see your comments so if you had commented on all the posts.
Activites list only appears to return public posts, being that its public only its no help to you. That and its posts and not +1s
Comments list is of no help either even if you had commented and not +1ed because its comments on a post and not a picture and you would have to know the post.
But the thing is that pictures are also accessible via the Picasa Web Albums Data API I don't have any experience with this API, but just scanned the documentation a bit. It does let you request albums and check the comments on the album it may also show a +1 on it I don't know.
IMO Google+ api is probably a dead end I don't think it has what you need. I would try digging around the Picasa api see if you cant use that instead.
Is there any php API to gather information about a business(address, reviews) by its phone number from Yelp, Google, Insiderpages, Yahoo..
Please help, i have done research about these, but did't get the right info, though yelp is providing info by it's phone number but there they ask ywsid as mendatory (http://api.yelp.com/phone_search?phone=1234567890&ywsid=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX) but i want by phone number only.
Please note that all APIs have terms, most of them won't allow you to store their data in your own database and most of them have display requirements, before proceeding with any developing please read carefully their display requirements and terms.
Depending on your project you might not be allowed to use the data as you might need/want to on your project.
The other alternative would be scrapping sites, but most sites have rules against scraping too...
And again read a lot before putting too effort on something you are prohibited to in first place.
Yelp
ywsid = API key, you need to get your own key if you are using the yelp API, get it here
if you are using it to add it to your own database or storing the information anywhere it is against their policies display requirements & api terms.
if you are using any API you must read their terms before even thinking of doing anything.
Google Places
API
Insiderpages
I Don't think they have one but you could use the citygrid API that does a [lot of sites] search at once.
Yahoo
Yahoo API
CityGrid
As mentioned before citygrid API
Foursquare
Foursquare API
Merchant Circle
Merchant Circle API
White Pages
White Pages API
Yellow Pages
Yellow Pages API
Bottom line is, all these companies have put a lot of time and effort and money to build their databases, and they want you to redirect people back to their pages so they can make their money back/profit.
I am currently working on an application which requires to find that whether the Business is listed and also claimed in Google, Bing and Yahoo (Something like http://getlisted.org) when a user enters his business name and zipcode. I am using google places API for checking for listed in google, Also Yahoo local API for listed in yahoo. But not able to determine how to use the Bing portal API for doing the same.Also how to get any conclusion about the Business is claimed in all three.
Any help would be great.Thanks in advance.
A want to query Google for the reviews I have made. I thought this could be done either through the Maps API or the Google+ API but I can't find the call to satisfy my need.
Is there any way this could be done?
We don't currently support returning reviews content in the Google+
API. However the top 5 reviews for any given place are available via
the Google Places API:
