How to update multiple chrome extensions in the same time? - google-chrome-extension

I have a few almost equal extensions on chrome store (some of configs are different, images, names..). Extensions have same code with mentioned differences.
How can I automatically update all extensions if I make some hotfix? Currently, I need to update each separately which is time consuming. Thanks!

You could use the Webstore Publishing API to programmatically upload updates and publish them.
There's an official guide on using the API.
Short version:
You need to create a Google Developers Console project and enable the API for it.
You need to take the Client ID / secret from the Developer Console.
You need to obtain an access token through OAuth with the above.
Using this token, you can upload updates and publish them with a REST API.

Which API methods should be used for DocuSign 0Auth?

Looking into Docusign's API Auth0 documentation and sandboxes and the examples for making a successful 0Auth are based on the following SDK methods:
getAuthorizationUri()
generateAccessToken()
getUserInfo()
These methods work as expected.
However in the Node.js SDK there is also the AuthenticationApi with following methods:
getOAuthToken()
revokeOAuthToken()
What is difference for both set of methods and in which use cases each should be used? I can't find examples of when they should be used?
Also for 1st set of methods couldn't find a SDK method to revoke the current access token of a user. What is the suggested way to do it using DocuSign's API?
The DocuSign SDKs are based on our swagger spec which include properties and methods from older versions of our APIs. With the previous versions of OAuth it was necessary to make these calls to obtain a permanent access token and to also revoke it.
In terms of the methods used, our SDKs are meant to use industry standard dependencies to handle the token requests and creation. If you'd like to see it in action and how you can tap into it, I would recommend having a look at our quickstarts or git repository for Node. Included in the download are methods for invoking both Code Grants and JWT Grants. The quickstarts operate in Demo only, however when you go to download them it actually configures an OAuth workflow in your Demo account for you -- then it feeds the necessary configuration file into the quickstart download. Under ideal circumstances you would be able to simply run npm start / install and see how it works.
If you need further assistance with this, feel free to open a case on support.docusign.com where someone from my team can work directly with you in terms of consultation and troubleshooting.

Nodejs send metrics of how many people are using my app

So i'm designing a new application with Nodejs and packaging into an executable then putting a release in github, I want to be able to monitor how many people are using my executable?
I was thinking about creating an api server and my application just make a call to that API service but I thought there might be something already out there any help?
The easiest way is to connect third party services that do that. The most famous one is Google Analytics
You just need to create your developer account and embed a few lines of tracking code. After that you can see full info about your visitors including their location.

Chrome Extension Connect To Amazon MWS

Whats the best way to connect a chrome extension to the Amazon MWS API's?
Should I store the credentials inside the javascript files?
How would I encrypt the credentials?
Thanks
I have done this a few times with various clients, whether they be web apps, or windows, or IOS clients. Doesn't matter, you create an API that your front ends will call and your API handles all the communication with MWS, hiding your access and secret keys from the client.
I used to use a chrome plugin that talked to MWS to get pricing info. I wanted to figure out how they did it, so I looked at all their javascript and figured it out, including their keys. They quickly released a new version that called back to their servers, essentially following the method I describe above.

Can we get windows user details in chrome extension?

I am adding a webchat(connected to bot framework) as extension in google chrome. I need to capture windows user details by javascript.
Nope, there's no API that can do it. You're welcome to see the list yourself.
There are 2 ideas that come close:
chrome.identity API can provide you the details of the Google user if the user is signed into Chrome - if you just need some sort of identifier. You'd need "identity" and "identity.email" permissions and would need to call chrome.identity.getProfileUserInfo. Interestingly, that produces no permission warnings.
Native Messaging allows you to create a Windows binary that your extension can talk to. Obviously, a native application can do whatever, including getting the signed-in user details, but that requires users to install another component from outside Web Store. In short: it's a big hammer that's likely not worth it for just this.

How can you connect python to the Microsoft store and download an app?

I was wondering if there are modules, or code snippets to create a program that connects to the Microsoft store, in the background, and download an app(without pyAutoGUI). Thanks in advance.
There are no Official API's for accessing Microsoft store, A Possible solution is to use requests library or other equivalent to create a bot that can access various fields available on the website and navigate through, if you always want a certain(Same) application to be downloaded may be you can go directly to that links page and use get request for the download button as submit, this should work in theory, but again this will also keep breaking in short durations as Microsoft keeps making changes to it's website.
P.S. You might want to fool the website by adding headers to your request.
