There is a way for merging cells in Google spreadsheet finally. But I can not find API for doing this. Am I missing something?
There's an API for doing it using Google Apps Script. But this API is only accessible using Apps Script code, not really a public thing that you can call from java or "regular" javascript.
Well, you could publish the script as service and develop your own protocol to do it, which you could call from "external" programs. But that's kind of cumbersome. Much better if you could just write everything in Apps Script.

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.
Wondering if anyone knows of a way to insert annotations programmatically using YouTube's Data API. It's entirely possible to access functions like upload, meta-data, etc. I don't see anything annotations however.
https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/guides/uploading_a_video
Basically I'm trying to upload a video that has a different annotation on every frame (that points to a corresponding frame elsewhere in the video) — obviously the GUI YouTube provides would make that incredibly time consuming.
Here's an real example of the sort of functionality I'm after:

Any ideas welcome so long as they sit natively within the YouTube environment.
Many thanks.
Unfortunately you can not do it using the API. One way would be a browser Plugin to do this using the annotations-page...
How do I give access to one specific Google Spreadsheet to a Java (or Clojure) application?
Read only access is fine. My idea is to keep data in a Spreadsheet that I and some collaborators can edit, instead of in a database. Is Oauth2 needed in this case, or is there an easier way to accomplish this?
Your post intrigues me, simply because I have been using Google Spreadsheet as my "simple centralized database" that I can query against from all my machines. That said, my approach was very rudimentary (written in ~2009) because I only read the published CSV link and I don't do any write on the spreadsheet from my app.
After googling around, it seems like this is doable. Have you checked out this link? https://developers.google.com/google-apps/spreadsheets/ It seems like you can use OAuth to grant/check access before performing read/write on the spreadsheet. And they have examples in both Java and .Net to accomplish that.
Is it possible to call/run a python script file from Java code on the Android platform using SL4A? Basically I have a full blown Java Android app and I have several Python scripts that scrape some information from various web pages. I would like to be able to call these python scripts with the web page and get the results back. Is this possible? If so, can anyone point me in the direction of an example or two?
Thank you,
Harry
run an SL4A script from my application?
http://code.google.com/p/android-scripting/wiki/FAQ#Can_I_run_an_SL4A_script_from_my_application?
Here you go, a solution on how to make Android applications using SL4A and Python. I have developed a functional Python application following this tutorial so I can vouch for it. I assume you can add the Python code and do your data exchange with JSON.
I personally have never tried to mix these two together, though I will probably try after seeing your post.
Also, if you have any problems/questions, related to starting that example, post them here, I might help.
I'm working on a transliteration project in Java Swing. It can access the internet, but I'm unable to set it up. How do we do that? Do we need to download the Google API libraries or just a function call will do?
Here are some useful Transliteration links:
The Google Transliterate API Devloper's Guide
Google API library for Java for download
(I think it has all API libraries of Google:Translate, transliterate, search, etc.)
I spent a lot of time, but Icouldn't find how to set up the Transliteration API, not even at SO.
Seems the transliteration API is deprecated and is not included in the Java client, only in the JavaScript client.
The actual calls the JS library makes are pretty simple and could easily be replicated from anywhere:
http://www.google.com/inputtools/request?ime=transliteration_en_ru&num=5&cp=0&cs=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&text=prosto
Don't know if doing that is against Google's terms, though. Probably it is.
You could also try running the Ajax client in Rhino. You'll need env-js which provides a pure javascript DOM environment.
It's just hideous enough to work!
