Get info from Azure Application Inisights through API - rest

Is it possible to download information from the Azure Application Insights through REST API? I would like to make a simple page that would be a kind of mediator, which asks AI (Application Insights) about the data that was sent by my application.
I found something like this: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn931943.aspx
but I would also have access to the collected bugs.
Is it possible?

An API is planned, but Continuous export is the way to go just at present. You can hose the data into a blob and process it all you like there. Or even better, shift it to a db or dashboard.
We're currently developing the API, so please let us know in MS UserVoice what you'd like: http://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio-2015/suggestions/4999529-make-data-accessible-via-apis-for-custom-processin

How Acumatica Cloud ERP integration works for third party application?

We have an application developed with react and NodeJs and already implemented an MYOB cloud ERP integration to import data. Now we are planning to add a new ERP integration for Acumatica, in the developer document it was mentioned that the rest API is available but I can't find the cloud instance URL, everywhere it was mentioned as localhost only. So can anyone please help me to understand how to connect the Acumatica cloud to fetch details?
Note: I understand the authorization flow like Authorization Code but I'm confused with which URL to use for and I hope it should be a fixed one as it is a cloud URL
The Integration end points is a rather large topic. I am in the process of writing a blog post on it which is more or less a getting started blog on automating stuff and getting info via ReST. The blog itself is in the context of using these services via PowerShell but if you are able to follow along and get to the point of establishing postman examples of what you need to do you should be able to get to the same end result in any language.
You will want to explore The Web Services Endpoint screen in the integration module as this is where all the Contract Based Soap/ReST definitions are managed. You can even set up custom endpoint if you need.
Do you have access to the Acumatica Portal? The best way to get started is with some of the course work there.
Stand by and ill forward some information for you to get started.

The URL for the RestAPI is whatever is the site URL of your Acumatica instance. For example if your Acumatica is hosted in www.ManiMaran.com. To login to your API :
http://ManiMaran.com/entity/auth/login.

Dynamically create skills for Actions on Google via an exposed API?

Is there an API exposed for Actions on Google, similar to what Dialogflow offers with their API? The only API-like flow I have found through my research is this webhook flow API, but that only deals with conversation requests, prompts, and responses, which I have already handled.
Ideally I'd like to be able to dynamically create "agents" and their conversation flows without having to use the AoG console, similar to what Amazon offers with Alexa SMAPI.
There's not a full API to do everything that you want end-to-end. Some parts, like Dialogflow and fulfillment, can be automated, but it will still require some manual work in the Actions Console.
I had a conversation with another developer on this subject once. As a workaround, which is admittedly hacky, they decided to use the Puppeteer library to programmatically control a browser instance to fill in fields and click buttons.
That may not necessarily work when the console changes, and isn't a good substitute for an API, but it may work for you.
Yes you can do it using Google Dialogflow REST API
Here are APIs for the agent :
There are many more APIs available for different operations.

API Authentication - Clients (consumers) vs. local users

I work for an ecommerce site and we are looking to expose much of our core functionality via a set of APIs. We plan on re-writing some of our own public facing applications (e.g. the main shop website and our mobile app) to call these new APIs also. We also want to offer some of these APIs out to third-parties who want to integrate with us.
My first question is - what is a suitable authentication method for these APIs? Everything I read is about OAuth, but am I right in saying that this doesn't fit in this case as we're not looking to use another log in system (e.g. Facebook, Google) but rather restrict access to our own API (so maybe an API key or JWT solution would be better?)
Secondly, our current website has it's own user accounts system. How do you offer /user endpoints (like GET user/1235/paymentmethods) in an API like this? Surely the actual user (website customer) needs to authenticate somehow in order for the given API consumer to access their data.
I've spent the last 2 days reading about this but I'm at a loss as to how to go about this! Any help much appreciated.

ADAL register application by rest api

I couldn't find it anywhere but was wondering if there is a rest api way that allows to programatically register an application (besides the documented ones (powershell,CLI and by portal). I have an app that needs to access to azure monitor to retrieve some metrics and didn't want the clients to have to register the app by themselves. So it would be something like this:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/monitoring-and-diagnostics/monitoring-rest-api-walkthrough
but that I could use in javascript for example.
Thanks!
The reason that the PowerShell sample in the above document works is because Azure PowerShell is registered as an Active Directory application already. At some point, your application will have to be added manually by the customer, since Active Directory APIs can't be executed by a user role.
Take a look at New Azure AD application doesn't work until updated through management portal for the steps necessary to create an application via the Azure AD graph API.

Data.com API query to Base CRM

Looking in at the DATA.com API we do have a license for 1000 API queries a day. My question is we are looking at a different CRM to handle our outbound sales processes other than SalesForce.
Base CRM looks like it is capable of handling our needs for our business and account processes. Is it possible to have the Base API send queries to the Data.com API and return the results?
I also see there is an API purchase within the SalesForce API. When you conduct a search API query does it require you to purchase the results if you have a license already in place to use Data.com?
Our goal is to have a primary CRM pull information from Data.com or another source for lead information and display it in the new CRM.
If none of this is possible with the solution I am looking at might you suggest other platforms.
Thank you!
Unfortunately, we don't currently offer the triggers to query Data.com's database. However, there are a couple of other ways to integrate Data.com with Base. You can either use a polling-driven trigger to Data.com, you could attempt to configure a workflow in Data.com to send this data over to Base, or you could use an import to pull this data into Base (as many of our customers have done). I hope that helps!
