Nest Protect - Pathlight History - nest-api

My Nest Protect has the ability to automatically turn on the pathlight when it senses motion. This is a useful feature and somewhere it is actually being recorded when it turns on, because I can see the history in my Nest App for iOS.
I'm wondering if Nest has any plans to make those timestamps accessible via the API? Or is there already a way to find that information that is not part of the API? I'd like to export in a text format.
Thank you,
Ryan

The historical info isn't available but you can get the pathlight status over the api. You can even get the specific color.

Where can I find a hook to customize the search via Shopware App?

I am prototyping a Shopware App right now, where I want to extend the search with our search API. We already have a working plugin in the store for that.
I found those two references for hooks:
https://developer.shopware.com/docs/resources/references/app-reference/webhook-events-reference
https://developer.shopware.com/docs/resources/references/app-reference/script-reference/script-hooks-reference
Seems like there is no webhook for the search at all and just a script-hook for a finished search. In the plugin, we could just extend the ProductSearchRoute and be completely flexible.
Are search extension not planned right now?
Cheers,
Tobias
I assume you want to alter the criteria for fetching the products. As of today this is not yet possible with non-self-hosted apps. You could use the app scripts to enrich or replace the contents of an already loaded page as you already mentioned. Obviously that comes with some drawbacks regarding performance. The capabilities of apps are being enhanced continuously though so there's chance search manipulation might become possible rather soon.

How to access Google Classroom without API?

I'd like to automatize some processes that are not yet available through API(Google Classroom), like posting comments on announcements, seeing private comments on my work and so on. I have trouble accessing my account. I'd like the app to be able to run on a server. I'm currently working with node.js, but if there is an easier approach I'll gladly accept it (free if it's possible). Can you give me an example of how it's done because currently, I am struggling to find every button that needs to be clicked on?
Unfortunately, there are no methods right now to accomplish that. You can leave a feature request on Google Issue Tracker describing what methods you would like to use. Google engineers will study your case and, if applicable, they will develop the requested methods.
You could use something like Selenium with your language of choice (Javascript in this case) to automate the browser clicks.
This is however, not the best of ideas... To make Selenium log into your account you will need to hardcode your password somewhere.
Google services use Oauth for authentication, take a look at the Classroom API Getting-started for instructions on how to work with Google Classroom API.

Signing / Initialling multple pages - multple signers

We've implemented DocuSign in our e-Builder instance. It works okay on normal documents with the normal signing actions. We would now like to sign our CAD plans in a similar fashion. Some plans sets have over 100 pages. Each page needs to be initialed, signed, and stamped. So, placing all the signature "Tabs" is a bit time consuming. When the signer receives the plans, all of these should be positioned already right where we want them. Same x,y on each sheet.
What would be the best approach to placing these? Python?
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
You can use either Python or C# (with VS 2017) to use the REST API and it has the functionality you want.
Here is some code example to help you:
https://developers.docusign.com/esign-rest-api/code-examples/set-envelope-tab-values
GitHub Python code can be found here:
https://github.com/docusign/eg-03-python-auth-code-grant/blob/master/app/eg016_set_tab_values.py
GitHub C# code can be found here:
https://github.com/docusign/eg-03-csharp-auth-code-grant-core/blob/master/eg-03-csharp-auth-code-grant-core/Controllers/Eg016SetTabValues.cs
You will need to get a sandbox/demo account and get an integration key to make API calls.

Problems with the Google Places API AddPlaceRequest - Android Studio

I'm in the process of creating an application on Android Studio which allows a user to select a location on a map and add some details to that location - E.g. Select a football pitch and add some details to it such as 5 a side football match on Sunday at 12 o'clock.
Once these details are saved that location is saved onto the map along with those details.
I've decided to use the Google Places API as it has the AddPlace feature. Instead of adding a business to the map like the API was intended for, I want to tweak it so it can add an event instead.
However, the example found here at:
https://developers.google.com/places/android-api/add-place
Does not work in my application.
Here are the screenshots:

Any help would be greatly appreciated - Thank you

The Add A Place function of the Places API isn't a good fit for what you're trying to do. Add Place is designed to allow users to add places that don't currently exist in Google Maps' database. It sounds like what you want to do is attach some metadata to a place that has meaning only to your app.
So, you'll need some persistent server storage for this metadata. There are lots of ways to do this but you might want to look at Firebase Realtime Database as a solution.
Also, from the screenshot, it looks like your error comes from not having defined mGoogleApiClient in in your app.
When you want to make a connection to one of the Google APIs provided in the Google Play services library (such as Google Sign-In, Games, or Drive), you need to create an instance of GoogleApiClient ("Google API Client"). See here: https://developers.google.com/android/guides/api-client

Retrieving Google Instant Data

I want to develop an application that will visualize the recommendations of Google instant. It is for a course project and for now, I don't know much about web programming tools. What I wonder is that is it possible to retrieve that data from another web page. If you think it is possible and it is possible with which platform, could you please guide me to the correct direction?
Without more information on what you're actually trying to do, it's difficult to give a proper answer. From what I can understand, you just want a list of the auto-completed items from a Google search, to manipulate however you like?
In which case, using the highest-rated answer from here, you can use http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?client=firefox&q=YOURQUERY to give you a JSON object which you can then manipulate to get the auto-complete results. The client= part is needed, but I haven't looked at various options you can put in there.
Personally, I've never used JSON before, so can't give you any help on how to go about parsing it, but you can find more information about it on the JSON website, and w3 website.
Will need to act like javascript or run a javascript engine OR a browser add on and communication with that add on.
What happens as you type is a javascript function is called. So you need to call this function in your own or mimic what it does. I guess it calls a web service/ web page form programamtically (ajax) with what you have typed. The server responds with the suggestions. Not very difficult as long as Google does not deny you if it realizes your not a browser. i think they like only 100 free API calls but you can google google about that.
Http Components in java will help calling the serice, with cookeis etc. You should use the dev tools on firefox to see what happens under the hood when you type in the google search bar and see the code.
