Is there a quick way to use web exposed APIs value in Google Sheet or Google Docs.
I've been researching a bit and I found Google Sheet API v4, but only applies to Google Sheet data or resources, not externals one in document.
EDIT: I don't want to develop a complete backend in Node nor Java (if possible), just a direct way to execute an script in Google Sheet/Doc, in order to get the data available.
Thanks!
The available "direct way" of operating on Google Docs or Google Sheets that's available is through Apps Scripts. For Sheets, there's Class Sheet and for Google Docs there's Document Service.

I am currently trying to develop a tool to use Google Search Console API in order to get some data from my website.
My main goal is to get the 'Links Report' such as Top linking domains & Top linked pages in an automated way.
I don't know if this is available via Google API. I have found nothing till now.
Is this even possible to get such list via the Google Search Console API?
I'm doing the same thing, hoping someone will answer that question
I am looking to use google docs editor and viewers for docs , sheets etc in my application.
i.e. the files are hosted in my application and just want to open the office files in the google docs UIs. So , just want to use google docs UIs not the google docs as a server.
As per the below SO thread it is not possible.
But was just wondering how BOX has achieved the same.
MS Office online supports the same use case through WOPI. So was looking for something similar for google docs.
I am trying to create google sheet document using node js.
I found libraries only for reading and writing, not for create new one.
Can anyone help me, or recommend some way how can I do it?
You just need check it out here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/google-spreadsheet. I think you will find what you need.
In order to create a new Spreadsheet with Node.js you can either use Sheets API with the method create (the one I would recommend), this is an example of its implementation in Node.js or with Drive API with the method create.
Here is the quickstart guide for Sheets API for Node.js and this one is the quickstart guide for Drive API.
Is there any way I can write an Excel VBA program to interface with Quickbooks online? I work for a company that uses quickbooks for accounting, and I'd like to write a simple program that I can run from one of our common excel files to take data from that file and dump into in a Quickbooks bill.
The problem Im running in to is that I dont know where to start. The quickbooks online API online seems suitable for other web apps, and any integration with Excel is online with quickbooks desktop. Are there any good resources? Is this even possible?
You can definitely use the QuickBooks Online API to do what you're looking to do.
The API is usable to both web apps and desktop apps.
If you follow the linked text above there's tons of documentation.
The basic process if you're building a desktop app would be to:
get your OAuth tokens from Intuit's OAuth playground
find an OAuth library for your language of choice
parse the Excel sheet
send OAuth signed REST requests to Intuit's API to send the data to QBO
If you're building a web app instead, you'd be better off implementing the entire OAuth signup process instead of using the playground tool.
You probably don't want to do this from directly within Excel because there's a lot of OAuth signing and other crazy stuff that likely won't be easy/available within Excel directly. But you should be able to use Intuit's .NET DevKit to do what you're trying to do.
I researched this last month. From what I can tell the API is only for creating apps for their app store. The apps have to comply with their standards for navigation, security etc... so the answer to your question from what I can tell is that it's not possible. (I could be wrong but I was asking myself the same question a few weeks ago.)
Probably not the answer you were hoping for but I came to accept it. After talking with my business partner who is a Pro Adviser he said that it was easy enough for him to just upload a csv file if the information was correct and the file was documented.

EDIT The API has been updated. Keith Palmer's answer is correct.
Last week this sample was posted:
OAuthHangoutSamples
I have been using a modified oAuth part of this. I found it was easier to build out the transaction than use the SDK for the API. I have a wrapper class, exposed to com that is working in VBA.
Attending the Intuit's Friday Developer Google Hangout was very helpful in my Intuit Magical Mystery Tour.
Google Docs have a feature "Web Clipboard" to help users easily copy and paste cross google documents. (you can refer to https://drive.googleblog.com/2010/02/a-web-clipboard-for-google-docs.html)
But I am wondering that if there's any Web API or official way to access those API.
I try to find in Google Document List APi (https://developers.google.com/google-apps/documents-list/), I can't find any related stuff.
The original goal for me is I want to copy some screenshot/images/text from my Windows OS.
And I want to paste into my GoogleDoc Document.
But it can't be done unless the screenshot/image/text is update/upload into Web Clipboard.
I keep finding any related integrated tools or extension, but I still can't find anyone.
Could someone give me some suggestions?
There is no official way to access this API, sorry.
There is clearly an API of sorts, just not documented. I'd suggest looking at extensions like this one and trying to reverse-engineer the protocol so you can see what endpoints it is calling.
But it sounds like a lot of work.
