Speaking Sessions

  • Introducing Google APIs Part II (Apps)

    11:15 AM Saturday   Room: 5501
    This triple session (20 mins talk + 5 mins Q&A each) will show how developers can integrate with Google App Script, Gmail contextual gadgets, and the Google Calendar API. <p> 1. Harness the power of Google Apps Script, a JavaScript cloud scripting language that provides easy ways to automate tasks across Google products and third party services. For example, Apps Script allows you to send emails to all the addresses listed in a Google Spreadsheet. (Martin Omander) <p> 2. Enhance GMail by writing your own contextual gadgets. A Gmail contextual gadget is triggered by clues in Gmail, such as the contents of Subject lines and email messages. For example, Gmail already provides a YouTube contextual gadget. If the body of an email contains a link to a YouTube video, a clickable thumbnail view of the video appears at the bottom of the email. Learn how to write your own gadgets. (Dan Holevoet) <p> 3. Add Calendar functionality into your own application or website with the Google Calendar API. You can edit calendars, create and delete events, send invitations, and more. (Peng Ying) <p> All three speakers work at Google where they help developers integrate with Google's Apps APIs.
