I request for a list of discussions and I want to get emoji from the attached notes.
But I can not find such an api.
The only mention of emojis I see in the api docs is https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/award_emoji.html
I’m not quite clear on what you are trying to do — does that help?

I have a ton of saved places that appear on my Google Maps - but there is no way to manage, filter or search them. Is there a way to access these locations by API?
I scanned the maps api and can't find any reference. Is there another Google API that makes this available?
There do have a REST API can retrieve the saved places.

Visit this link to get more information.
https://www.google.com/bookmarks/
There are also api like:
https://www.google.com/bookmarks/find?q=conf&output=xml&num=10000
https://www.google.com/bookmarks/lookup?
But seems like they have been deprecated and most of document are not available anymore. Use them as you own risk.
Currently the list of saved places in My Maps is not available via an API. There is a feature request tracking this you can use to follow along # https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=2953.
2022: I created a gist for parsing saved places from a shared list via python. It is really unstable because its a quick&dirty solution but maybe it will help someone: https://gist.github.com/ByteSizedMarius/8c9df821ebb69b07f2d82de01e68387d
Edit: The above answer did not yet take pagination into consideration. Please see my answer here.
E.g. - translating "amigo" from Spanish to English.
This gives a result ("friend"), which I'd expect in the API.
Does the API also offer the dictionary-like elements from that page like in the following image?
The API is not free to test, so I've been unable to see if it contains the result I want or not.
If not possible, can anyone suggest a different API for the purpose (multilingual dictionary, at least English -> other languages)?
No. The Google Translate API doesn't expose an endpoint for retrieving the dictionary-like elements you're asking about.
As of today the functions available through the API are for:
Translation of text
Detection of the source language of the given text
Listing which language codes the API supports.
There's no endpoint available for retrieving the audio for the translations either.
On the plus side, I've seen that the API has had its list of supported languages expanded regularly, though, and its language models have apparently been being updated.
Recommendations for other APIs to use is outside the scope of StackOverflow, but some Google searching should help you find what's available.
I used the Google API to translate word from Ar to En I want to translate only one word every time and I want to get all the possible meaning for that word not only one meaning. How can I do that, all the codes I found give only one translation.
Unfortunately it is impossible for the current version of Google Translate API (v.2).
From the FAQ (https://developers.google.com/translate/v2/faq):
Q: Is it possible to get multiple translations of a word?
A: No. This feature is only available via the web interface
at translate.google.com
I have created a npm package that can do exactly what you want - extended google translate api
However, this package uses unofficial google translate API, so you can't use it in any commercial projects.
I have been looking for an autosuggest search script and I have finally found one that I like, the only problem is that I cannot find a way to get it to run off our database results.
Is there any way to customize this script so that it runs from our own database, and not off the freebase pre-defined data types?

Have you tried overriding service_url and service_path ? There are also the corresponding params for the flyout service. It's documented in the docs that you pointed to.
As masouras says, you can override service_url and service_path, but that's not particularly helpful unless you have another service which provides the same APIs as Freebase.
Dae Park recently posted a recipe to the Freebase mailing list which might help - however, I'm not aware of anyone who's actually managed to get Suggest working with anything other than Freebase.
I'm using R for data analysis, and I'm sharing some data with collaborators via Google docs. Is there a simple interface that I can use to access a R data.frame object to and from a Google Docs spreadsheet? If not, is there a similar API in other languages?
There are two packages:
RGoogleDocs on Omegahat: the package allows you to get a list of the documents and details about each of them, download the contents of a document, remove a document, and upload a document, even binary files.
RGoogleData on RForge: provides R access to Google services through the Google supported Java API. Currently the R interface only supports Google Docs and Spreadsheets.
As of 2015, there is now the googlesheets package. It is the best option out there for analyzing and editing Google Sheets data in R. Not only can it pull data from Google Sheets, but you can edit the data in Google Sheets, create new sheets, etc.
The GitHub link above has a readme with usage details; there's also a vignette for getting started, or you can find the official documentation on CRAN.
This may partially answer the question, or help others who want to begin by only downloading FROM public google spreadsheets: http://blog.revolutionanalytics.com/2009/09/how-to-use-a-google-spreadsheet-as-data-in-r.html#
I had a problem with certificates, and instead of figuring that out, I use the option ssl.verifypeer=FALSE. E.g.:
getURL("https://<googledocs URL for sharing CSV>, ssl.verifypeer=FALSE)
I put up a Github project to demonstrate how to use RGoogleDocs to read from a Google Spreadsheet. I have not yet been able to write to cells, but the read path works great.
Check out the README at https://github.com/hammer/google-spreadsheets-to-r-dataframe
I just wrote another package to download Google Docs spreadsheets. Its much simpler than the alternatives, since it just requires the URL (and that 'share by link' is enabled).
Try it:
install.packages('gsheet')
library(gsheet)
gsheet2tbl('docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1I9mJsS5QnXF2TNNntTy-HrcdHmIF9wJ8ONYvEJTXSNo')
More detail is here: https://github.com/maxconway/gsheet
Since R itself is relatively limited when it comes to execution flow control, i suggest using an api to an high-level programming language provided by google: link text.
There you can pick whichever you are most familiar with.
I for one always use python templates to give R a little more flexibility, so that would be a good combination.
For the task of exporting data from R to google docs, the first thing that comes to my mind would be to save it to csv, then parse and talk to g/docs with one of the given languages.
