i would like to know if it is possible to receive the specific data:
- the number of people who like a certain artist or album, in a certain place.
This way i will know that Metallica has 25,000 fans in Lisbon and/or Muse's album (The Resistance) has 2,000 fans in Barcelona.
Thank you.
This is not currently supported in the Spotify API. You can see all the features/endpoints here and submit or vote for feature requests here.
The closest existing functionality to what you're looking for is the popularity and followers on Get an Artist, but there is no location-based data.

I know I can return a JSON array of up to 5 reviews. If I can return just 5 reviews that include only certain keywords that would be fine. Is it possible?
If not, perhaps I could generate a request that returns all the reviews for a place, then perform the keyword filter on the results.
I understand the business owner may return all reviews via My Business API, but I will not have My Business access for the places. I believe I can get more than 5 results with a premium plan, but assume that will get pretty expensive.
You are right the only way to get all reviews is via Google My Business API.The Places API at the moment provides only 5 reviews doesn't matter Premium or Standard plan.

Does anybody know of a simple way to use the Instagram API to export a list of a user's followers? I'm looking to be able to take a list of people that follow me, and a list of people that follow another user, then find all of the common followers, and finally pick a certain number of random usernames from the common followers. I know it sounds a bit complex, but mostly I just need a way to get the list of followers, and I should be able to figure out the rest. A CSV File would probably do what I need if possible. So does anyone know how to do this, or have a tutorial you could direct me to? Thanks
Yes, there is a way to do this. But you can no longer do it using the Instagram API. The Instagram API is no longer accepting new applications and it is being shut down in stages starting on the 31st of July 2018:
https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2018/01/30/instagram-graph-api-updates/
However, there is another way to obtain the data. You can export the followers of any Instagram account into a CSV file using this website:
www.magimetrics.com
It is very easy to use Magi Metrics. Sign up for an account, search for the username of the Instagram account you want to export and choose the option 'Export followers'. Magi Metrics will do all the work and will email you the CSV file once it's done. It's free to use for exports less than 100 rows, and you can pay to upgrade to do more.
Using Magi Metrics you can export a list of all the people that follow you, and all the people who follow another user. You can then take these two CSV files and copy them into Microsoft Excel.
In the first column you will find the Instagram numerical ID, which is unique to each user. If you apply the COUNTIF formula to this column, you can identify the Instagram users who are in both lists:

Finally, to choose a random subset from the list of Instagram users, you can use this method:
https://www.extendoffice.com/documents/excel/4487-excel-generate-random-number-from-list.html
Using these steps you can achieve what you want: a random subset from the list of Instagram accounts who both follow your account and another user!
I appreciate this question dates from 2016, so your need has probably long gone. But if anyone else on the Internet faces the same problem, I've posted this answer to help them. Good luck!
You're luck.I found a tool easily no longer do it using the Instagram API.
you can have a try. InsExport
How does it work?
1 Enter an Instagram username
2 Select the export type(follwer or following)
3 Click the Export button

There are multiple ways to do this. Programatically, you can easily request a list of up to 100 of your own followers. With one token, that's the max per request.
Here's the full documentation from Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/developer/endpoints/users/
Automated services will get a list of all your followers by requesting them 100 at a time using multiple tokens, getting around that 5,000 request limit (https://www.crowdbabble.com/download-all-instagram-followers/).
What are some alternatives to the comprehensive and now deprecated Google News API?
I'm trying to load some JSON data from two government webservices to be parsed into a query for a news API which will send me back hefty relevant news.
It will be over economic and regional data. So it could be lowest paying job in dallas county.
Are there any news api with as much functionality?
This is a relatively old question, but there have been lots of recent developments in the News API space and I thought I could shed some light.
I’m going to immediately disregard the more expensive choices like Bing ($7/1,000 requests), since most people won’t find it easy to afford them, and the results are actually often inferior to more specialized solutions.
That means you’re basically left with two options: News API and newsapi.org. I really do enjoy newsapi.org, they do a fantastic job and provide high quality search results. They also provide developers with 500 free requests per day, which is pretty great.
ContextualWeb News API does have a couple of advantages: they offer 10,000 requests per month free, and after that our API is significantly cheaper and more flexible (the baseline is $0.5/1000 requests, compared with a slightly higher $1.8/1000 requests with newsapi.org’s basic plan). ContextualWeb also offers result keywords, allowing you to do all kinds of nifty machine learning stuff with the search results.
Having said that, newsapi.org’s documentation is currently more straightforward, and their results are mostly always spot on.
Check out the Social Animal NEWS API.
The news database has 450 million-plus articles and 1 million articles are added on a daily basis.
Notable features:
It is fast and provides breaking news across the web in 39 languages.
Social engagement data is available for all news URLs which enables surfacing top quality articles
Offers Sentiment Analysis to filter articles based on their sentiments.
For more details, please visit the documentation page.
Disclaimer: I work for Social Animal.
There's a free alternative that provides good data but the quantity of query is limited.
If you want to get a higher number of query per day you must pay a subscription.
The site is called gnews.io, it's really simple to authenticate and to get a key.
You could use a general news api site like newsapi.org or if you want more specific niche news (e.g. stocks) you can search for niche api's like iex, alphavantage or stocknewsapi.com

Maybe you could try Google BigQuery
When using the Foursquare Developer API to perform a venue search, I receive different results depending on the account being used.
For a given authorised query (for example, https://api.foursquare.com/v2/venues/explore?ll=40.7,-74) I am given back a collection of items with "reasons" and "venue" objects. On some accounts, it also provides "tips" data; on others it does not.
Is this additional information dependent on certain account settings, or is there something I'm missing?
Thanks in advance!
The explore endpoint is tailored to each user and provides dynamic recommendations depending on social context, time of day, and user interests. Thus, two queries are likely to contain different content depending on who is querying the API.
For example, if a friend has left a tip at a nearby venue, it's more likely that you'll see that in your explore results, because it provides social reinforcement to the recommendation.
For other venues, there might be signals more important than tips, so a tip is not surfaced.
The official foursquare apps provide good examples of this data in action, as the explore result panes change format slightly from recommendation to recommendation.
Hope that helps?
I'm relatively new to the Amazon Product API and I am attempting to pull back similar artists to the artist on an item I am providing for the Similarity Lookup.
For instance using the following parameters:
ItemId='B00136JMX6'
Operation='SimilarityLookup'
ResponseGroup='ItemAttributes,Images'
Availability='Available'
SearchIndex='MP3Downloads'
I receive only other songs by Johnny Cash.
Is there a way to find other artists similar to Mr. Cash?
I've spent a lot of time working with both APIs and yes it is easy to get five similar artists from Last.fm then you could search based on those artists. You could perhaps use MusicBrainz... They also make use of ASIN numbers in their database. I don't make use of MusicBrainz much but it is another option I looked at.
Good luck!
