is there any way to create user alerts through csom for sharepoint online? I am not able to find any msdn references for this?
It seems to be not available in Client Object Model for SharePoint Online.
Take a look to this thread:

Can I get any suggestion on sending email to a SharePoint group when a site is created on SharePoint Online out of box.
Thank you in advance
According to my experience, there is no OOTB method to achieve this requirement.
There is no site created trigger action in flow and for SharePoint add-in, there is no site-level trigger event.
I am using SharePoint Foundation 2010 and have a requirement to make a database entry to our database for document creation. I need to find a way to get all SharePoint Groups associated with the document when it is created. Is there a way to do this through a workflow?
Thanks!
Probably you can create custom Sandbox action

I was wondering if is it possible to retrieve Office 365 directory information (i.e. security group membership) from SharePoint online programmatically (for example through a workflow custom action)?
By the way, I am not looking for retrieving Sharepoint group membership information.
I know the custom development is pretty limited with SharePoint online since the code has to run as a sandbox solution. Is there any web service or any another solution available?
I have been looking for information about this matter but I could not find anything so I guess there is no way to do this.
In our case there is an active directory synchronized with office 365. So we will use a powershell script to read data from AD and update a sharepoint list every day.
Then we will be able to use this data from custom code (like a workflow custom action).
From SharePoint experts, I would like to know if following is possible in SharePoint 2010:
Can we send an offline form (word/excel format document) to SharePoint server by email so that it goes in document management system and undergoes an approval workflow. This feature could be used by users who have only email access and can't access SharePoint portal.
Yes this is a built in feature in SharePoint 2010. You have to enable it in central administration. It is not a simple tasks however. There is a lot of configuration that needs to happen on the server. The documentation is here.
Is there a way to create a report in SharePoint where i can view all my current workflows and the status of each workflow?
Edit: I need to be able to have a List or something where i can view all my Workflows with the status and so on in my SharePoint site.
There is some basic reporting built in. Check out this article;

You can also get some overview of custom workflows available using this tool in Codeplex;
