Android Authentication in App-Inventor to access Google Spreadsheets - google-api

I would like to be able to access my google apps spreadsheet data from Android App-Inventor app without publishing to all. How do I set up authentication?

App Inventor does not support authenticating directly into Google spreadsheets. You can use App Inventor's fusion tables to get a spreadsheet that supports authentication.
Import your spreadsheet data into a Fusion Table that authenticates with the same Google id that your App Inventor app uses.

Here is a parsing tutorial I wrote a years ago:

in case you are still looking for an answer, see here for an example with Google Spreadsheets http://puravidaapps.com/taifunGS.php and examples with authentication http://puravidaapps.com/snippets.php#taifunOA

How to get the get API path and parameters of Google play developer API?

I have added a non-renewable subscription for one of my projects. We also started implementing the Google play developer API to get the subscription latest status from the Play Store. For that we have done the below steps as per this blog:
Linked the developer account to a new Google Cloud Project.
Enabled the Google Play Developer API for the Google Cloud Project.
Created a service account and created a key for the service account.
I have below clarifications related to this implementation:
I tried to Grant Access for the following permissions: But the corresponding checkmark is not clickable.
View financial data, orders, and cancellation survey responses
Manage orders and subscriptions
The 3rd step as per the blog is to Authorize an API key, but I didn't get a clear idea of that.
We are going to implement this API on the back end side as a corn job, do we need to generate a JWT token for accessing this API? Is this possible to call without a Token? I found 2 types of implementations from this blog, which one is easy and secure?
"Your application can complete these tasks either by using the Google APIs client library for your language or by directly interacting with the OAuth 2.0 system using HTTP."
From where we get the get API path and other details. I found a similar get API from AppStore like this. Is the play store providing a similar kind of get API?
We need the latest purchase status API and for that what parameters do we need to pass?

How do I integrate and test Google Classroom for a web application

I'm really confused on how I adapt my existing web application to work with Google Classroom. I currently have a local authentication system for teachers and students, but how does a teacher or school connect their Google Classroom authentication to mine? How do I test that authentication, and test the API access to the student lists. I feel like I'm missing something fundamental in my understanding of how Google Classroom works, but I also can't find any documentation on "How to bring your app to Google Classroom".
I don't access Google Classroom through Web platform but I was able to communicate with the Classroom API in this open-source Android application : Classroom Client.
You claim you already an authenticating system, like I don't know how that works but all you just have to do is get a Client ID as stated here.
Once authorized you can execute various API calls supported by the API, there is a reference here

Which Google APIs to use?

I want to do the following things in my iOS app:
Let a user create a new Google Spreadsheet, or choose from a list of
existing Google Spreadsheets
Let my app read data from a Google Spreadsheet
Let my user edit a Google Spreadsheet, either by embedding the
spreadsheet, or by switching over to Safari or a Google app.
There are a lot of Google APIs out there…which should I look at to accomplish the above three tasks?
Thanks!
You need the Drive API to create sheets: https://developers.google.com/drive/
You need the Sheets API to work with them (editing the file): https://developers.google.com/google-apps/spreadsheets/?hl=en
You can find information on how to authenticate your Google requests (OAuth2) in the linked pages. The Drive API is built into the Google play services library but you'll need to get the Sheets API separately.

How to share content from our site to google plus
For more reference:
https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2
https://developers.google.com/+/web/share/interactive#button_attr_calltoactionurl
I hope it will work fine...
Yes, there's a Ruby client library provided by Google which allows you consume their Google+ API
https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/ruby/apis/plus/v1
UPDATE
The URL above points to Ruby client library. The API you're looking for is moments.insert
https://developers.google.com/+/api/latest/moments/insert
There is an official Google API Client gem. However the Google+ API does not allow standard automated posting to a profile. The recommended approach to share posts is the share button or the interactive share API.
The automated posting that Google+ does support are:
App activities/moments are a way to make actions within your app visible to other users of your app. They do not appear in the Google+ posts stream.
Domains API can be used with Google Apps accounts to create posts that are limited to users within the company.
Pages API can be used to post to a page (not a profile) but is limited to approved partners.

Add user review to Google map from my application(Android)

I am trying to create a location-based services Android application. I had successfully getting the user reviews from Google Places API by following the guidance from this link.
https://developers.google.com/places/documentation/details
I also found many posts regarding how to get user reviews from Google Places. But Now I want to create a function which user can insert reviews from my application. Is there anyway to do that?
Thanks.
No. There is no API for writing review. Also the Google+ mobile URL doesn't have the write review option from last year. Its a bug , but Google is not fixing this.
There is only one way to write review is through desktop URL. I have a similar location base app in play store where I have done some workaround to show desktop site to write review.
