Google Reader API: Unauthorized Search? - google-reader

Is there any way to search on a stream/feed for an item without authentication? /reader/api/0/search/items/ids returns Unauthorized error.

No, this is not possible. The primary use-case for search is to search over items the user has read in feeds they're subscribed to.

Get messages and contacts from Linkedin

I would like to do some analytics on my Linkedin account.
I would like to get a list of my messages and my contacts.
Is there an API for this, or is there any other way to get them - export or something....
Contacts API provides a complete list of the authenticated user's address book on LinkedInhere
Not sure if LinkedIn allow the enumeration of ones messages. However, sending, deleting, archiving messages are possible.
LinkedIn Messages API:

Access LinkedIn Profile's Job Title using API

I try to access the profile's Job title, first name, last name, and company using LinkedIn API and PHP.
I have applied for LinkedIn Marketing Program on https://developer.linkedin.com/partner-programs/apply then I found some posts on StackOverflow saying that it could take several months to get approved :(
Is it possible to achieve what I'm trying to do? (Can I get access to LinkedIn r_liteprofile? is it limited in the number of requests or paid? )
Do I need r_liteprofile to access LinkedIn Jobtitle or I need to request more permission access?
Thank you very much for you help.
Kind regards
Lamine
Your best option is through google or bing, or any web search engines, which can kind of getting the "Headline", but not 100% accuracy.
site:linkedin.com {query}
By default, people put their Job Title as Headline.
Personally, I used Google Custom Search JSON API.
Good luck!

create unique links to send to users

I have been tasked with sending out a google forms link to a set of email addresses. I need each link to be unique so that a user can only answer the form once.
Is this possible with google forms?
The emails I send to will not necessarily have google accounts so the "limit to one response" will not be suitable as users will not be able to login to a google account to answer the form.
Many thanks for any pointers
No, its not possible to create unique links to prevent that a user without a Google account submit more than one answer.
Regarding official documentation to support this, there isn't as usually Google only include the supported features. The close that you could find are feature requests on the Google Issue Tracker, posts on the Google Docs Help Forum.

Google Analytics - a way to submit query from Query Explorer via API

There is an API in place and available to me (v4 compatible), but for various reasons it's not working correctly and there is not much time to fix it (too many other fires). So the idea was floated that that to bypass most of the issues with API here it might be a quick-fix to send whole query to GA.
It needs to be automated and results stored in our DB (Webservice on MS Stack), else we would do it manually all the way, which is out of the question at this time.
Hence the question:
IS there a way to submit a query that is exactly the product of a Query Explorer via API or any other way and retrieve it's results?
The API Query URI returned by the Query Explorer
https://www.googleapis.com/analytics/v3/data/ga?ids=ga%3A78110423&start-date=30daysAgo&end-date=yesterday&metrics=ga%3Ametric1
Is for the Google Analytics v3 api. To use this in your own code you must simply attach a valid access token to the end of the request.
https://www.googleapis.com/analytics/v3/data/ga?ids=ga%3A78110423&start-date=30daysAgo&end-date=yesterday&metrics=ga%3Ametric1&access_token=XXXX
This is not going to be using the Google Analytics v4 API that is a different call entirely.
Access tokens can be retrieved from either service account authentication or Oauth2 authentication and must be valid for the view you are requesting data for.

LinkedIn API - What is the "Specialties" field?

In the LinkedIn API for "Sign in with LinkedIn", access is provided to several basic profile fields of a user, including "specialties." Does anyone have a sense of what this field refers to? LinkedIn got rid of "specialties" as an entry in their profile, so I'm wondering what data the API would be pulling for the "specialties" field?
https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/fields/basic-profile
The specialties field has been removed from the API, but the change hasn't been documented. Take a look here.
