RE: HTTPAPI and GOOGLE DOC

[Mike Krebs <mkrebs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

JHHL has worked out some of the google stuff. I think he is using it to put items on a calendar. I would imagine that GOOGLE DRIVE is similar. Some of what I saw regarding the spreadsheet API seemed to rely on javascript or client (program) libraries to manipulate the sheets. It appears you can use java, php, C#, etc to do most if not all of what you need.

I could not find examples of the actual protocol being used. All the examples I saw used the client libraries. If you are seriously pursuing this, it would probably worth your while to figure out how to implement the java, php or python client libraries and use those as the examples are "pre-written". If it is just for fun or one-off, maybe it might be fun to implement using RPG and HTTPAPI (but probably not).

If you make progress, let us know.

Subject: HTTPAPI and GOOGLE DOC

Scott,

Thanks for the feedback. From what I have discerned from various GOOGLE DOC
"how-to's" posted on the net, I am thinking that EXAMPLE08 is good starting
point for inserting a new row in a, now GOOGLE DRIVE, spreadsheet. I will
let you know how it turns out.

I am still open to anybody else's input or experience with HTTPAPI and
GOOGLE DOC.

Thanks
