Please direct me the right way. I'm stuck with some documentation issue. Going to code a small service with Google HOME for everyone to add a new phrase and make a POST request or answer with specific "TEXT" (like IFTTT run with WEBHOOKS) (fe: "Hey Google switch my kitchen light" -> service will send POST request to my own HTTP server). I know that IFTTT works but - I would to code the target service for tiny cases with fast response.
I tried to understand all Google Assistant layers - but still no luck and didn't find the clear path.
What I learned are:
1. connect to Google Account using OAuth 2
2. .... save the phrase and action for that in my DB - it's ok and simple way
3. ...??? how to send and to where? in (json?) a specific format
4. receive the answer from google home to understand the right case and make my action.... (for example: turn on\off the kitchen light)
It should be not so hard as I can image.... anyway Please help :).
Appreciate your time and answers and have a nice day!
To learn about extending the Google Assistant, you should look into the documentation for Actions on Google: https://developers.google.com/actions/extending-the-assistant
Although it also seems like you want to use it for Smart Home: https://developers.google.com/actions/smarthome/
You can run the Smart Home sample if you want to see how it works: https://github.com/actions-on-google/actionssdk-smart-home-nodejs

I'm wondering if anyone can be of assistance.
I am trying to generate some dynamic Amazon Polly SSML to be used on the Plivo PHLO platform. When someone dials into a particular number, they should be greeted with a custom message (in a particular language) and prompted to enter a number.
I have an HTTP request that hits my API, which receives the request and generates the SSML using Plivo's PHP Server SDK.
$response = new Response();
$speak_elem = $response->addSpeak($result['text'], ['language'=> 'en-US, 'voice'=>"Polly.Joanna"]);
Header('Content-type: text/xml');
die( $response->toXML() );
It seems to me that this HTTP Request is working perfectly and returning perfect SSML. When I copy and hard-code-paste the SSML into the Get Input node, it works OK.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Response><Speak language="en-US" voice="Polly.Joanna">Welcome To 101 Broadway. For English, press 1.</Speak></Response>
However, when I try to add a Get Input component and link it's "prompt" audio to the resulting SSML, I am getting an error that says Invalid SSML (See Screenshots at the bottom).
WHAT I'VE TRIED
I've tried returning the SSML in plain XML and using {{HTTP_Welcome.response}}
I've tried returning the SSML as text in a JSON object called SSML and using {{HTTP_Welcome.response.SSML}}
I've tried returning the SSML both with and without the xml tag.
I've tried returning the SSML both with and without the Result tag.
I've tried taking a break and coming back to it. Hey, you never know.
No matter how I return the SSML, and how I try to link it to the Get Input prompt, I am unsuccessful. I'm starting to wonder if this is even possible?
Any help would be immensely appreciated. Thanks!

Unfortunately, the "GetInput node" in PHLO does not yet implement the feature you are searching for. The best option is to use a standard speak which is customisable in your way, which may have a less natural feel than SSML.
Currently, I've narrow information about your use case as of now but If you still want to use a custom SSML, I'd recommend utilising a framework instead of PHLO to design your call flow. Here's a tutorial that covers a few use cases by Plivo in several frameworks to help you develop one.
If you experience any problems, please feel free to contact our support team.
I'm having some trouble with the GCP console, hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
A couple of days ago I generated some API Keys and was able to restrict their validity scope by target API. The form looked like this, and I was able to restrict keys to apply on my GAE private APIs only:
whereas today the righthand side tab has disappeared on me and I can only apply "Application restrictions" (IP range, referrer, etc..) and I can see merely the following menu.
I was and still am the owner of the project, and I'm not aware of any change in roles/project config/etc.. (although I can't 100% rule them out)
There is next to zero documentation about the mysterious "API restrictions" tab. Hope someone can help.
Many thanks in advance

This feature has been removed temporarly because was causing issues with the Google Maps API.
API already created making use of these restriction will not work and the workaround is to remove them and recreate them with no restriction.

I've been using ldp.exe to guide development of some ldap code for Active Directory. I'm using the win32 API (wldap32). ldp.exe has been extremely helpful in this regard, because in the right pane of the program it shows (more or less) the actual win32 API functions and arguments used to carry out the commands. I find this particularly helpful when crafting calls for ldap_search. If I can get the search to work in ldp.exe, I can directly translate the search to ldap_search.
This was all working as expected until I tried to query a trusted, linked base domain. For example, I login and authenticate to x.net. But I am trying to query the domain y.net which is trusted from x.net.
A search query like (SAMAccountName=mylogin) with BaseDN DC=x,DC=net works in ldp.exe immediately. If I change the BaseDN to DC=y,DC=net it will not work. However, if go to Search Options in ldp.exe and check the box for 'Chase Referrals', the query will work.
Here is the problem. I don't know what checking that box does in terms of win32 API calls. When I query BaseDN DC=y,DC=net with ldap_search directly the return code is LDAP_REFERRAL.
At first, I thought fixing it would be as simple as calling ldap_set_option with LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS, but that doesn't seem to be enough. I've tried settings various other referral related flags like LDAP_OPT_REFERRAL_HOP_LIMIT to larger numbers hoping that is my problem, but nothing seems to work.
I suppose that one possibility is that ldp.exe is actually following those referrals manually with additional function calls (but not actually showing it on the GUI). However, I have not found any good examples of how to do that. If anyone has an example of that, it would be greatly appreciated.
Additionally, I know this query can work because I have access to C# code using DirectoryEntry and DirectorySearcher that works fine in this case.
Does anyone know what is going on in ldp.exe 'Chase Referrals' and how to translate it to the win32 API?
If you see ldp.exe console output, win32 api ldap_search also get's LDAP_REFERRAL. However ldp.exe does follow referrals with additional functions which we don't see in the console as those are not api's.
i am trying to get the body of an email and set it to a variable with powershell by using get-mailbox. the reason im not doing it an easier was is it is blocked on the network to get the body from outlook. im completly lost. ive tried export but thats to pst. ive tried doing a search query with logging but thats a bust also. im pretty lost anything to point me in the direction would be great.
As far as I know, Get-Mailbox won't do that, unfortunately. It'll get you information about the mailbox, but not it's contents. If you want to work w/ the contents of a mailbox, and you can't use Outlook, your best bet is probably the Exchange Web Service (EWS).
There is a way to do this but it really depends on how much you are willing to work to make it possible.
The best way that I could think of is using the EWS API. It's messy and it takes a while to learn so you will probably need to put some time and effort into making the script (unless you can find someone else who has).
Basically I got all of these links by doing a google search for "Powershell EWS API"
Here is another similar question:
How to check an exchange mailbox via powershell?
Here is some more help with how to use the API (it's kinda tricky):

I made a desktop music application in adobe air.
I want to update the status of some IM clients running EG: Yahoo messenger,Gtalk,AIM,MSN etc.
with the current playing song.
I am not desktop developer.This is first time i am making something for desktop.
SO is there any way in any Programming language that i can make something which will change the Data (Status message) of a running IM client.
Please Just guide me through this problem .
Edit: I dont want to ask for username/password of users IMs accounts , so via API is not a solution in this case .
It will be like Person X running mine music application and also logged to various third party IM clients (YIM,Gtalk etc).
SO if he is playing a song in the music application , then mine app will update presence status message on the IM clients to " Listening to bla bla song ".
So it is like high-jacking/Hacking the data of the running third party IM client.
Have a look at libpurple, it might have the functionality you require.
There is also telepathy, but I think it is related to the former somehow (one uses the other or they do the same thing).
EDIT: for the recent edit: it looks to me like you want something like MSN Messenger displaying the currently playing track in Windows Media Player. This requires a plugin for the messaging client, no way around that.
Perhaps an easier way to get this done would be to develop a plugin for one of the numerous multi-platform IM clients such as GAIM or Trillian. This would let you target stuff across the board without undue effort . . .
I think your only option is to write a plugin for each chat client you want to target, which could take some time.
So let me suggest an alternative: Add last.fm audioscrobbler support to your application. You would simply send the Now Playing info to last.fm via the API (http://www.last.fm/api/submissions), and it will appear on the user's profile page. Most music players already support this method because it's a pretty popular service, and a lot of people link to their last.fm profiles on their blog/facebook/etc.
