What does "Assets per month" in HereMaps pricing mean? - here-api

The pricing page https://developer.here.com/pricing#plan-details for HereMaps contains the term "Assets per month" for the freemium plan. I could not find any hint what this means?
Could someone explain me what an asset is for Heremaps and when do I use them?

An Asset is a person (including an end user), animal, device, cargo, means of transportation, vehicle or any other object which is
Located, tracked or displayed on a map, or
Provided route calculations or orders of destinations and/or routes, or
Has analytics derived by using the HERE Materials in a customer application or service for business purposes.
For example, HERE services are often used to help logistics providers manage vehicles in a fleet or a field workforce. If you manage 250 or fewer Assets, the Freemium and Pro plans will support your app. Contact us to license applications that manage more than 250 Assets.

Visitor IP information - WP Google Maps Plugin

We understand that the WP Google Maps plugin does not directly share any information with Google, however, the plugin does make use of the Google Maps API and in doing so, for certain features such as Geolocation as an example, the Google Maps API requires a users IP information in order to make use of the Geolocation features.
Can someone let us know if Google shares the visitor information (particularly Visitor IP information)?
Here is our flow -

is there any linkedIn API which returns current job openings in a certin company?

a couple of months ago I made this https://github.com/Kaustubh-Natuskar/companies-to-apply repository which contains the list of 300 PBC's and startups I got a good response for that. But I have decided to take this further I want to make a website from this idea.
there will be a list of companies if there is an opening a red circle will denote it.
Now the problem is how can I know that there are openings?
API is a great option where I can cache the results and then display them like above.
is there any API on LinkedIn where if I post a request with the company's id or name I'll get current openings?
It doesn't look like it.
There is the Job Posts XML feed, but the documentation implies that it's not free (and difficult to get access to):
The integration of the XML feed is limited to those developers approved by LinkedIn. Reach out to your Business Development contact to meet certain criteria and sign an agreement in order to use this integration.
Compliance with our contract and guidelines is integral. Refer to Job Posting Guidelines for details.
If you are not yet a LinkedIn Talent Solutions Partner, please contact the team at ll-bd#linkedin.com to request for evaluation.
Here is Microsoft's full documentation on the LinkedIn APIs.

How to become a developer approved by LinkedIn to use LinkedIn's Connections API?

I would like to use LinkedIn's Connections API to retrieve the 1st degree connections of users registering on my application. But, "The use of this API is restricted to those developers approved by LinkedIn and subject to applicable data restrictions in their agreements.". Has anyone experience in getting approved and what are the main points to consider before applying? And, how can we apply? Thanks!
To access any APIs you'll first need to setup a business page on LinkedIn (instructions here) for app verification then head to the developer page to create an app
To access their restricted APIs you'll want to reach out to their support team via the contact us page and request access; specifically looking for a Relationship Manager if you have an existing business relationship or a Business Development contact per the compliance docs:
The use of these APIs is restricted to developers approved by LinkedIn.
Reach out to your LinkedIn Relationship Manager or
Business Development contact as you will need to meet certain criteria and sign an API agreement with data restrictions
in order to use this integration.

Can Google Endpoints be used as an API gateway for a SaaS product?

I have gone through the documentation on Endpoints and Quotas, but I still cannot figure out what the scope of Google Endpoints is.
Since I don't know a better way to phrase it, let's take the example of a SaaS company that, for a monthly fee, will provide customers with stock data through a REST API. They have different packages, from Enthusiast (for $10 per month) to Enterprise (for $1000 per month).
Would Google Endpoints be a suitable API management tool for this fictitious company?
Can you create an interface for API token management?
Can you set quotas based on the package that your customers are paying for?
product manager for Google Cloud Endpoints here.
We do not have quite the feature set that you need yet. We've got some features in the works (you'd need developer portals with log-in and key generation and monthly quotas) as we work on alignment with our Apigee product. There will be some progress this year, but no dates that I can speak of yet.

Charge user on a per month & per post basis for directory

I'm looking for a way to charge users to post to a directory site.
I've tried using the WPMU Dev directory plugin, but it didn't have this feature.
You could either charge a one time fee per post, or you could charge a monthly rate.
Oh, and for now the gateway would be PayPal.
Cheers.
There are a number of ways you could do that on the PayPal platform, but with the limited info I have here I would probably recommend the Adaptive Payments API, specifically Preapproval and Pay.
Using Preapproval, you would have users create a preapproval profile which gives you authentication to make payments on their behalf without further approval. This way you could take payments based on any trigger you want, be it a post, a specific date coming up, or whatever.
