I am looking for a way to increase the queries per day quota for the YouTube Analytics API. I was able to find this question asking the same thing nearly two years ago now - can anyone confirm if the answer is still the same (that there is no way anymore)?

This seems to be a common enough problem that there are a lot of entries when one googles for help but nothing has helped me yet.
I am finding that the results provided by the REST API for estimated_steps are wildly different from those that appear in the device app.
I am running a fetch task for users via cron job on a PHP/Laravel app.
I'm using this https://developers.google.com/fit/scenarios/read-daily-step-total - estimated_steps to retrieve the step count.
Some days the data is correct. Some days its wildly different. For instance, on one given day, the REST API gives step count of 5661 while the app shows 11,108. Then there are six seven days when the stream is correct.
Has anyone faced this sort of behavior? I've tested for timezone differences, logged and analyzed the response json to see if i'm making some obvious mistake, but nope.
You may check this How do I get the same step count as the Google Fit app? documentation. Be noted that even when using the right data source, your step count may still be different from that of the Google Fit app.
This could be due to one of the following reasons:
On Wear, the Fit MicroApp when connected will display step counts queried on the phone and transferred over via the Wearable APIs. Other MicroApps accessing local-only data will only get watch steps. We are working on making this easier for developers.
Sometimes the step calculation code for the Google Fit app is updated with bug fixes before we are able to release the fixes to developers (which requires a Google Play Services release). We are also working on making it possible for developers to access fixes at the same time.
The Fit app uses a specific data source for steps and it adds some functionality (which can be seen on the documentation) on top of the default merged steps stream.
You can access the "estimated" steps stream as shown here:
derived:com.google.step_count.delta:com.google.android.gms:estimated_steps
Hope this helps!
We've been doing some research for many hours already.
The first solution that appears everywhere (other StackExchange questions too) is using third-party service SendGrid.com and sometimes in conjunction with Zapier, but that's not the approach we are wanting to implement.
For sending without third-parties in the middle, the first solution that seemed viable was "Firebase Triggers", which was anounced on Google I/O 2014 but never came to life and seemingly was merged into Google Cloud Functions which is still in Alpha.
I'm pretty sure I had seen the solution almost a year ago in a link on the FireBase blog, but the only post that seems to have existed upon that matter is now empty.
We've never worked before with GCP, but our logic tells us this matter should be solved (inside Google) using with another GCP existing API, and the Mail API is apparently the correct one, but there seems not to be any way our Firebase Web App could make the request.
Could anyone (preferably with GCP experience) please explain what's the situation here, and how does Google expects it's FireBase developers to send emails to their clients?
Firebase Functions
As gracefully stated by #ajostergaard, TODAY Google has announced its much waited Google Cloud Functions, but precisely for Firebase they've implemented their own specific Firebase Functions which substitutes the Triggers shown in conferences since Nov. 2014 (more than 2 years ago!) and mentioned in Firebase groups .
This is an example link that explains exactly how to do what is asked in this question:
Sending emails from Firebase (FINALLY! and just in time for our WebApp)
I want Google Scholar to detect and consider academic papers on my website. I implemented tags as required in [http://scholar.google.com/intl/en/scholar/inclusion.html], time passed (more than 3 months), and they still ignoring my metadata. I checked over and over, and nothing happens... any ideas on how to check this in a realistic way?
Google says some of they refresh takes more than a year.... it is dumb to wait a year to notice there was a bug... and then again wait for another year...
I have similar problems with Google Scholar. Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do. GS support isn't helpful at all, and indexing can take that much time. Sorry.
I am trying to budget my time wisely but have not had a lot of details on the Security Review that Intuit performs on applications before publication. I found an article on their blog that talks about pre-paring for it.
The "Security Review": What to Expect
and then there is their Complete the Security Review section on their website. However I have not been able to find anything on the expected timeline to complete. One person mentioned on their v3 webinar that his took 3 months to complete, but is this the norm?
Thanks for any help in this.
It does not take months to complete, normally it takes 1-2 weeks assuming you follow the guidelines and prepare for the reviews accordingly. Obviously if there are security vulnerabilities found in your app it could take time to resolve so 1-2 weeks is an average and assuming you are able to resolve issues as soon as possible.
Also, if you follow the info here it will speed up the process

I am about to start a new project in the Google Analytics API & PHP.
I read that Google Analytics will be deprecating XML v2.3 and v2.4 and in 6 months time, so aparently you will only be able to use v3 and retrieve information in JSON format.
http://analytics.blogspot.com/2011/12/introducing-google-analytics-core.html
My question is the following: Does this means that GAPI class won't work any longer? Anyone who has used this class before can help me answering this question ??
http://code.google.com/p/google-api-php-client/
In that case, any alternative suggestions of PHP classes that do the same thing.
Thanks so much
I've been using GAPI for a while now. And I can say with some confidence that yes it will break, if not due to XML it will be due to some other change google makes.
Having said that GAPI is the best solution I have found out there for php. It does break every 6 months to a year, usually needs one or two lines changing to fix. But GAPI is pretty popular so at least you know when your clients are calling saying analytics is throwing errors at them, you wont be the only dev tearing your hair out.
9 times out of 10, by the time I've got a problem someone else has found the fix - which is nice.
There are a few other php options out there but GAPI seems to be the most popular (usually the best way to go imho)
My approach is to build an analytics summary in the dashboard and provide a link to google analytics underneath so clients can see the full data or go there when GAPI breaks. I have been putting all my sites on the same modular system for a while now. I keep GAPI as a library in my admin layout module, this means I can make the fix once and roll it out to all my sites without too much drama.
In summary, use it but expect it to break - that way you wont be disappointed when it does.
