Is it possible to change a LinkedIn profile picture using their API?
I found an older forum on their website where a developer stated that it is not possible but that has not been updated since 2011.
Thanks

Making Google Calendar add-ons

I am wanting to develop a Google Calendar add-on so that all the people in my group will automatically have all of our meeting dates added to their calendar but I can not find any documentation on developing Google Calendar add-ons.
Unfortunately, developing Google Calendar add-ons is not yet possible.
You can eventually use a Chrome Extension and modify it to your liking.
For more information, you can read this:

If that does not solve your issue, I suggest you filing a Feature Request on Google Issue Tracker at this link.

Track count of views,likes and comments in a community site

Can anyone tell me how can I track number of views,likes,comments and shares in a collaboration and community site. This is not a Google site. This site was created using lumapps. It's a collaboration site, Which works similar to Google+, where you can write a blog, post and like/ share the same. I need a way of keep tracking the likes/shares/views on such posts or blogs, So that I can display the same in Google data studio.
I heard it's possible using Google tag manager. Can anyone confirm this OR let me know about anyways of achieving the same.
Thanks and Regards
Kumar
You would do this by sending an event to Google Analytics and using this source in Data Studios.
Please see reference on how to send events using Google Tag Manager and custom Variables.

LinkedIn API and Long-Form Post

I am looking for a way to automatically publish my Wordpress blog articles to the LinkedIn publishing platform as Long-Form Post.
I've been looking at the LinkedIn Rest API doc but couldn't find a way to do it (it only explains how to share a short post with an external link). Is there a way to do it and if so can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
LinkedIn does not presently expose an API to submit content to the publishing platform.

How can I remove post dynamically via Linkedin API?

I wonder how can I remove a post from my profile and company using API in my system. What parameter should I spend? Anyone have any idea?
There are no APIs available for removal of a LinkedIn share. It has to be done manually through the web/mobile UI.

Embedding LinkedIn company updates / feeds

We have created a SharePoint 2010 web part where we display our company feed from https://www.linkedin.com/company/"Name of Company"/.
End-users need to login the first time (that is ok). But even though they login using their personal LinkedIn profile, they cannot see our company-feed. Why is that?
If the users are set as LinkedIn Designated Admins they can see the feed, otherwise they cannot.
We are using
<script type="text/javascript" src="//platform.linkedin.com/in.js">
api_key: "The key"
lang: da_DK
authorize: true
onLoad: onLinkedInLoad
</script>
I hope someone can share their knowledge.
This is why :'( https://developer.linkedin.com/blog/posts/2015/developer-program-changes
Starting on May 12, 2015, we will be limiting the open APIs to only support the following uses:
Allowing members to represent their professional identity via their LinkedIn profile using our Profile API.
Enabling members to post certifications directly to their LinkedIn profile with our Add to Profile tools.
Enabling members to share professional content to their LinkedIn network from across the Web leveraging our Share API.
Enabling companies to share professional content to LinkedIn with our Company API.
Only people who can admin the feed can read/update to the company feed. All others are excluded unless you manage to get yourself promoted to LinkedIN partner: https://developer.linkedin.com/partner-programs
Some light on this issue over here:
As ahmeij said, Linkedin doesnt provide anymore an easy way of embedding your company/personal profile timeline anywhere. However, there is an alternative way of implementing this.
You will make use of the RSS feed of the profile. The url will be something like this:
https://www.linkedin.com/biz/[PROFILE ID]/feed?start=0&v2=true
You can find out the numeric ID in you profile/company page.

I found the way to implement a CORS proxy, and got this working.
I used this simple PHP CORS proxy
However, LinkedIn site doesn't return any information from this URL anymore, it just returns a [301 - moved permanently] error :_(
As Alberto mentioned in the post below a RSS feed can be used to create an embed code. To enable RSS on your LinkedIn and get the RSS link you can follow this guide. Then you can use this plugin to generate an embed code of the feed.
You can use a social wall solution like Walls.io to add LinkedIn company feeds to your Sharepoint website. The tool generates an iframe or JavaScript code that you can embed. Here's an article on how it works on SharePoint.
