I wonder what is the process to integrate Google My Business API into a React app. The main objective is to render the google reviews in the website.
I have been searching in Google documentation but haven't really found any useful guide.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
The fundamental way is to find the API in the google API store and then render that into the project if there's one. the process includes enabling the API from the store and using REST methods like HTTPS to call them in your project. it's the same for react and all the projects.
Here's a basic setup link
First, you have to apply for Google Business Profile API, for that you need an Account that have verified Google Business Profile. Then you need to implement OAuth2 for authenticating the account that have Google Reviews, once thats done you can access reviews from account that are authenticated. This process may take 2 weeks to 1 month.

I have a file upload in place however I want to go ahead and send my files to google drive to be stored however I'm not sure where to start and everything I've seen so far online has been a bit confusing. Does anyone have any tips?
This is a pretty broad question, your best bet is just to read Google's documentation and code samples to understand how the process works.
Learn how Google uses OAuth 2.0 to authorize APIs. This involves creating a Google Cloud Platform project to generate the access credentials. The Get Started guide contains the steps to create this project and set it up.
With the credentials you can generate a token to authorize your app to access Drive. Since you said that you are already uploading the files you'll probably want to do this on the back-end. There's a general sample for using OAuth with web applications and for something more specific you can check out the Drive examples.
You could also choose to do it on the front-end. Google has a different guide for that, and the code sample in Erwin's comment can help you as well to follow up after you have the authorization token. There's another guide in Github referenced in that link that can also help you generate the auth token.
My recommendation is to first really learn how OAuth works, here's a great question about it. Then use the links above to understand how Google uses it and their required steps, then try to implement it yourself little by little and look for, or ask specific questions if you get stuck in some step. Understanding the process is key to make it easier for yourself so you'll need to dedicate some time into studying it.
I am attempting to create an angular application that authenticates to the Google APIs as our administrator account so that it can gather details, such as a user's Google Drive info (number of files, total size, etc.)
I'm attempting to use OAuth 2.0 to give the application our "administrator" credentials. The examples provided in the Google API documentation shows how to accomplish such tasks by allowing a user to log themselves in, but I've yet to find anything demonstrating how to programmaticly authenticate an application as admin (or anything else, for that matter).
Is this possible?
After a bit more research, I finally found a question relevant to the issue with what appears to be a detailed solution! It's all about using the right key words... "programatically" was the word that finally got me there :)
Of course, I'll be using JavaScript/Angular, not Python, but I believe the concepts will be the same.
I am new to facebook APIs. I basically want to know the difference between javascript sdk and graph API. And are there any limits for calling these APIs ?
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/ is a good way to start with.
Javascript SDK is an SDK provided by facebook to interact with Facebook.
And Graph API is the primary way to get data in and out of Facebook and it can be used with any of the available SDK's.
Better start with the following documentation available with FB and hang around there for basic understanding of how FB Apps work.
Try to google around or search in stackoverflow before posting a basic question.
I am trying to create a blog dashboard that will connect to your Analytics account and show BASIC stats on your site. I am using Node.js for the blog system, so it would be best if it was in Javascript so I can convert it for Node.
I am looking for a how-to guide, or someone to point me in the right direction. I have tried some sample code on the web but none of it works, or its outdated.
Basically all I want is pageviews for the past 7 days by day.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks,
I have created a service to do exactly this: EmbeddedAnalytics. Our service uses Google 3rd party authorization protocols so you are not providing us with your credentials. All you need to do is embed a snippet of code into your site where you want the stats to show.
I have been asked to integrate facebook chat in my application using javascript. I went through the chat api but that needs a domain url. I have to integrate the chat without the domain or the site url. I tried populating the online friends list through graph api, and I am able to successfully authenticate using the client flow example, but it does not redirect to my local host: http://localhost:8090/chatplugin/success.html. An error pops up telling me the resource is not found.
Is it possible to integrate FB chat using the graph api? I'm new to FB apis and I need more info.
Thanks:)
Short answer: no.
Longer answer: The Graph API lets you access all the information that is stored in Facebook's social graph; the social graph is the giant web that keeps all the information on people, events, messages, etc. Chat isn't part of the graph, it's a separate application, that also uses info from the graph to populate it.
While there may be other ways to sneak around (which I don't know), the Graph api doesn't provide what you need.
Please see the API available on Facebook API.
