Linkedin Share Plugin always displays 0 shares - linkedin

I am using the Linkedin Share Plugin https://developer.linkedin.com/plugins/share
It always seems to display 0 no matter what URL I enter (ie http://linkedin.com or http://salesforce.com)
It has been like this since 2:45 PM EST Thursday (January 11).
Is there a bug with it currently?

This API has been end-of-lifed unfortunately:
https://developer.linkedin.com/blog/posts/2018/deprecating-the-inshare-counter
There is no alternative solution being offered by Linkedin (at least not yet).

LinkedIn share counts are back. Their API is returning non-zero counts again, for example:
https://www.linkedin.com/countserv/count/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.com%2F
According to AddToAny, LinkedIn was "running a test to determine the effectiveness of the share count number on the inShare button."
LinkedIn should really improve their developer relations.

Get campaign name from LinkedIn API

I am trying to get in touch with LinkedIn support for the past month now, unfortunately I had no luck getting to the dev team through the account management.
We are using a reporting tool to pull LinkedIn campaign data via their API. We would like to pull Campaign Names which doesn't seem to be possible at the moment referencing https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/ref/v2/ads/adcampaigns#get
However, is there any kind of way to retrieve the Campaign Names (ID is making it really hard for us to identify campaigns on the fly)? It seems like such a basic request, I find it hard to believe LinkedIn has no way of doing this.
Thanks in advance!!
A little further down that page you referenced is a section called "FINDER" with this:
https://api.linkedin.com/v2/adCampaignsV2?q=statuses&statuses=ACTIVE
Options are ACTIVE, PAUSED, ARCHIVED, COMPLETED, OR CANCELLED
You will get the "name":"MY_CAMPAIGN_NAME" field there. That's the only place I've found it so far.

google maps API for a place how many people have made reviews and rating?

I made a app and I use goole maps API. I would like know, you know when you make a request for place, API return 5 last reviews and reviews.rating, and rating, for how many reviews this rating is calculate ? How I can have this information do you know?
I calculated for 5 last reviews and rating, the average does not correspond in 5 reviews.rating. Thus how to know this average is calculated on how much reviews? Thanks
Edit : in this question (4 years ago) : how to get total number of reviews from google reviews I have try this solution user_ratings_total but that don't work
Edit 2 : it's certainly possible nobody's know ?
it is possible now to get total number of reviews using Place Details Place APIs call: https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/details#fields
as of Jan 2019, it returns user_ratings_total field: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/releases#335
which contains the total number of reviews.
If this isn't a long term project, give my API a shot:
http://reviewsmaker.com/api/google/?business=mumbai%20cafe&api_key=4a2819f3-2874-4eee-9c46-baa7fa17971c
You can just swap the business name; I created it local to the US though by the looks of your images it seems you're looking to do it for CA; user_ratings_total was indeed removed from places but the GMB API still has access to this data, I just kind of tweaked it a little bit.
Here's a tip on how you can get the data, if you create a custom RSS feed with the URLs for the places and (not sure what language your using) you can parse through the URLs and get the metadata out; or if you use Google CSE (Custom Search Engine) the PageMap for the schemas 'review', 'aggregatedreviews' will be easy to parse through as well. These are just clevar workarounds; it sucks they omit this data from the natural official API it was very useful.

Unable to fetch all company updates from LinkedIn using R

I am trying to fetch as many LinkedIn updates as possible for a company--
Here is the link I am using -
https://api.linkedin.com/v1/companies/21837/updates?event-type=status-update&count=250
But it only returns 10 updates. There are many more updates but they don't show up in the response. All posts older than a month ago don't show up. Is there a limitation on how far back you can go?
Appreciate any help!
20 days seems to be the limit, according to the LinkedIn API documentation.
Note that the API returns the latest 50 updates only for event type
status-update. If you have updates of other types (such as jobs
posting, product-updates etc.) then it can fetch up to 250 updates or
updates in the last 20 days whichever comes first.
The wording there isn't totally clear, their API documentation isn't very good unfortunately.

Can you use Google Analytics to view individual visits?

Say I have an article which has been viewed 100 times and has an Average Visit Duration of 01:00:00 hrs. Is there any way I can break down those statistics - and see how long each individual visit lasted for?
(I should state that I'm not looking to find out information about particular IP addresses or anything like that. I just want to get some idea of the 'mode visit' - the time most people spent on the page.)
Google Analytics doesn't provide enough detailed insights for invividual visitor details. If you want a more granular data try CardioLog Analytics
Yes, right, Google doesn't provide that. I tend to use sitemeter in conjuction with Google. Not sure if I recommend sitemeter though. It does give specifics about individual visitors, but they are very flaky. I don't think I've ever gotten a response from their so-called "tech support" or anything else from them.
The short answer is no, you can't. Google Analytics doesn't provide individual visitor details as it violates the GA Terms of Service.
However there are a couple ways to get at or close to this information:
1) Create an advanced segment - use the "Page" dimension and include the URI of the article on your site. Apply it and then look at the city or service provider report - it will show you all visits that viewed the article.
2) Keep a copy of the tracking data sent to Google and process it with on premises web analytics software that doesn't have the same ToS/privacy restrictions.

Possible Google Analytics Bug - Traffic Sources Total Visits not matching Total Visits in other reports

Has anyone else seen this issue?
As of roughly 2 weeks ago, I get conflicting figures for the Total Visits metric between the Traffic Sources report and the other reports (e.g. Visitors, Dashboard). For example, for the week of 5/9/2010 through 5/15/2010, the Dashboard and Visitors reports both say 386 Visits. The Traffic Sources report says 157 Visits, and the 4 main source types (Search, Direct, Referral, Other) sum to 157 Visits, not 386.
Any ideas? Is this a known bug, or could there be a configuration issue?
Thanks.
Well it seems that quite a few GA users have observed unaccounted-for behavior, particularly during the past couple of months.
For instance,
18 - 19 May 2010:
more than 40 different GA users posted to the GA
User Forum all regarding the same
issue: no data whatever was
recorded in their GA Accounts
during the 18th and 19th of May. No
response from Google and nothing in
the GA Blog. Several users who had
other GA accounts that were functioning normally during this period, suggested that the problem might be caused by recent changes by Google to the GATC (which was in fact recently revised)--many of those who posted on the Forum said that indeed they had recently added the latest version of the GATC to their Sites/Pages.
6 - 9 May 2010:
Over 50 GA users reported, by
posts to the GA Forum, a complete
GA outage during the period 6 - 9 May
(no data appearing in their reports
for at least one of those days). This
time a GA Team member did respond with
a one-line response "there was a
delay in reporting, no data was lost."
This post also referenced a Twitter
message 4 from GA stating the same
thing.
In addition, i've seen a half dozen, perhaps more, recent posts (past 60 days) on the GA Forum in which users reported significant discrepancies between an aggregate figure and the sum of the constituents--both sets of figures from the same Report, e.g.,
Numbers Don't add up on the Absolute Unique Visitor's Report
Search Engine drill-down visitors don't match total
Neither Post was answered (either by the GA Team or anyone else).
Finally, since it's just a matter of clicking a menu and selecting a different option, i suggest comparing the figures you recited in your question with the analogous figures for Page Views, which is probably the simplest measurement in client-side analytics ("Visits" by contrast is strongly influenced by user cookie manipulation).
Through some trial-and-error looking at every specific source, I've traced the error to one item: within the Traffic Sources reports for the affected days (the issue seems to have partially righted itself as of yesterday's data, at least for my account), the delta/error/black hole was always equal to the Google CPC Search traffic for that day.
I have no idea what's causing the issue, but at least I know how to manually attribute the numbers. Hopefully Google has fixed this...
Thank you to all who commented/answered. I appreciate it.
