How to setup Blogger API on Android - java

I want to make an app which will use Google's Blogger API V3. But I've got stuck at the setup part. I've made an API key on developer console. I've read trough several tutorials and samples and everywhere they use this object
Blogger
For example here:
Blogger example
I downloaded the Java client library, copied to my application's libs folder, added to the build path, but still can't use this Blogger object.
Java client library
Where can I get the library that contains the Blogger object?

It depends what do you want to do with the Blogger API. If you want to access non-public data you should use Oauth2.0 to authenticate so for that I suggest reading this
https://developers.google.com/android/guides/http-auth#retrieve_the_account_name
Then you will probably want to send request to your API (POST,GET, DELETE or others) in order to perform actions such as post on your blog, retrieve comments or posts from your blog.
I have found this link very usefull

Integrating 3rd party API with jhipster based webapp

I am trying to build a simple web app using jHipster. Currently I am trying to build a simple stock entity that will enable a user to input the stock name and the entity should generate a listing of that stock with open, high, low and close data. I am unable to figure out how to integrate the web app with a third party API that supplies the data. I could not find any documentation regarding this issue online. Thank you.
I found this tutorial on implementing API's that might help.
What you need to do is create an HTTP client that can access your API.
I'm not too familiar with jHipster but finding the proper library to import seems like a good first step. Good luck.

If you aren't sure which language to choose, a great way to narrow down the selection can be to find an API you want to implement and see if the company provides a client library. A library is code that the API owner publishes that already implements the client side of their API. Sometimes the library will be individually available for download or it will be bundled in an SDK (Software Development Kit). Using a library saves you time because instead of reading the API documentation and forming raw HTTP requests, you can simply copy and paste a few lines of code and already have a working client.

How to use API Key in Google Speech grpc Java library

How do I use an API Key in Google Speech grpc Java or any other library. For HTTP request I am able to see that we can append key=API_KEY as mentioned in
https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/api-keys.
But for the given libraries (https://cloud.google.com/speech/docs/reference/libraries#client-libraries-install-java) all examples show how to use the Credential file.
Please help.
Use metadata with a key of X-Goog-Api-Key. See this other answer. If you have API restrictions, you may need additional headers. For example, an iOS example mentioned a bundle id restriction.

how to add facility like google docs has in my project

I want to create maven project like compare to office docs with it syntax. So I think to download Google docs API.
But I didn't find any link to download it. so any API that do this or download link and sample for achieve it using Google docs or other.
You can't download Google docs the same way you download an Office file. Even the Google docs inside of the Google Drive are actually just links.
What you have to do instead is learn how to interface with the API. This will allow you to manipulate Google docs.

Android: Downloading flickr images

I have a project that I'm having trouble with (for an internship). My assignment is to create an Android app that downloads a random image from Flickr after running a search for a specified tag.
I know Flickr has an API, and I have an api key, but I'm struggling with understanding how to integrate this into an app, as it seems examples in Java are a bit sparse. Does anyone know the process of using the API to download an image after running a search? (Or if there's an easier way to do it without the API/being authenticated, that works too).
I should also mention that I can't use any external libraries.
For searching public photos you don't need to authenticate yourself with Flickr service API. First you have to register an API key for your apps, call the correct API function from the list
http://www.flickr.com/services/api/
and parse the result in format of JSON. But you can't use 3rd library in your project, you can follow this post
http://hintdesk.com/android-show-images-from-flickr-with-imagegridview/
it uses only Android libraries.
Well I can feel the difficulty of doing this w/o the so sweet and easy Flickrj-Android or Flickr4Java :)
The method you need is flickr.photos.getSizes.
Returns the available sizes for a photo. The calling user must have permission to view the photo.
You do not need to authenticate your API key if you do not want to download non-public photos.
Just get the wanted photo-id with a simple search (flickr.photos.search) and download the wanted photo with a simple URL file stream.
The returned data has the wanted download URL. So just run a parser and download away.
