Rest Api on Google Chrome - javascript

Can anyone tell me how can i write a Google Chrome extension which is contains a rest api?
I would like send a rest (HTTP GET) request (or something like that) from C# Windows Form project to my custom Google chrome extension. That time extension will handle this and show chrome on top windows and should execute another script. (a JS function on another script file).
Thanks for your answers in advance.

Can website js read web extension console.log

How do I Make Google Apps Script serve XML to IE 11?

I have a google app script attached to a spreadsheet. It's deployed as a web app. When accessed, it returns XML.
function doGet()
{
var xml = createXML_(getSheetData_())
Logger.log("\n" + xml);
xml = ContentService.createTextOutput(xml);
xml.setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.XML);
return xml;
}
I have javascript in a webpage that retrieves the XML from this, with a GET request, using XMLHttpRequest() like normal. It then traverses the XML and builds a table from the data.
In Chrome and Firefox, this all works perfectly. However, in IE11, it doesn't work.
Upon further examination (in IE's inspect thing), the XML being returned to IE is:
<Permission Denied>
and that's it.
How do I make my google app script return the XML when requested by Internet Explorer?
If you mean that Google app script that is deployed as a web app on another domain and your web page is hosted on another domain from where you are trying to retrieve the XML using JS then it can be possible that IE is preventing you from accessing the resources across different domains.
I suggest you try to go to the Internet options-> Security tab-> Select the desired zone-> Custom level then enabled the Access data sources across domains option under the Miscellaneous category.
Restart the machine and again try to check for the issue.
If the issue still persists then I suggest you try to provide detailed steps with the sample code to reproduce the issue and also try to share the snapshot of the error may help to understand the issue in a better way.
Thanks for your understanding.

You can write Greasemonkey script for that. It's supported by Google Chrome by default.

Google Chrome extension - How to access an element and send a HTTP request?

I haven't managed to find any good resources on Google Chrome extension development. Does anyone know of any blogs or resources that walks you through creating extensions?
I am trying to create a chrome extension that when I press the extension icon in the toolbar it will look through the webpage, retrieve certain elements and then send a HTTP request to the server as if the javascript that is sending the http request is part of the original page.
http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/getstarted.html
This is the Google documentation that covers almost everything a Chrome extension developer needs to know.
In particular you'll need to look at content scripts and cross-origin XMLHttpRequests.
Good luck!

How to make a Google Maps API (.js) file a part of a widget for Mobiles

I would like to create a Web App for device. For that I would have some script being stored on device, instead of downloading them all time when I start application. As far as I saw including a GoogleMaps API makes some additional request for javascript files. Is there any way of having all of them taken directly from local store? Or is this always have to refeer to google web address? Thanks for any answers here!
No, you always must load them from the Google site. They offer no way to run Google Maps locally. The GMaps scripts are generated on the fly, based upon (among others, I'm sure) the HTTP_REFERER header of the request. That's how they can bind an API key to a specific website.
