We are working on a mobile application that fetches public profile of our company's employees. Although we have their LinkedIn user-name but still have to ask them to go to a specific page and sync their profiles with our app by authentication. ( https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/~?format=json )
I also have worked on accessing info without asking our employees to visit our app and authenticate using;
https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/id=pr61Fk_Yb_?format=json
And
https://api.linkedin.com/v1/people/url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Fbaqer-naqvi-32194649?format=json
Is there any else way to fetch the public profile ?
I just figured it out that I can search people using people-search API which is available only to partners.

I was asked by a potential client if I can have my software interact with Esri/ArcGIS Online.
Use case: users is logged into SomeRandomSoftwareApp and is looking at a Widget, this Widget includes an Esri asset id, the user clicks a link that passes that ID to Esri/ArcGIS Online and behind the scenes the user is logged into Esri and they see the data associated with the Esri/ArcGIS Online.
Thanks, Keith
If I understand correctly, you have two options for this: API Keys or Application Credentials.
The first one, is a permanent token generated by the owner of the data that will allow the application easy access to it. This is still in beta, and it was not ready for use the last time I check some time ago.
The second one, the owner of the data will generate credentials for your application. With this credentials you will have to request a token each time you want to access the data, all this via OAuth 2.0.
Check the docs for more details ArcGIS Services - Security
I integrated my application with the chatbase, but I would like my clients to have direct access to their email directly, as if it were a single step.
When I click a button in my application, it is directed to the logged-in chatbase screen.
Today I can only get it to the login screen, where it is still necessary to put the password to go to the dashboard, not logging directly into the application.
Is this possible? if yes, is there any kind of quickstart?
I followed the tutorial below to get to the login area, remembering that I use node.js

Thank you for your interest in Chatbase. There is currently no support for OAuth logins. Please see our recommended steps for third party integrations below:
Have the user open a Chatbase account with a Google linked email address
Have the user create a Bot in order to obtain the API key
Have the user integrate their analytics on your platform by providing the API key
Send the messages from their bot to their Chatbase API
Provide the user deeplinks to the Chatbase reports from within your UI
Is it possible to access mobile phone contacts/google contacts through a mobile/desktop website.
I am okay with the access being similar to playstore app where a user first have to allow the website to access contacts
Thanks
You can access Google's People APIs.
To easily get permission and do authentication on behalf of the user to those APIs, you can use Google Play Services GoogleAPI service, see this and this.
Google have multiple products like Youtube, Gmail, Google Drive and many more. When we login into one product like gmail then while hitting another product like youtube we will enter into this account without login. Then My question is how google uses cookies for different domain like youtube, gmail and any other. If anyone knows about this please let me know thanks in advance
This is not google specific thing. You have to study more about single-sign-on and claims based authentication to understand how this is achieved.
The common protocols used in these scenarios are OAuth and OpenId Connect.
Basically 3 parties involved here. The User, The Application, The IP(Identity Provider).
In this example Gmail, youtube and google drive, all are applications. They all use google(accounts.google.com) as identity provider. When user try to access an Application(gmail,youtube) he is redirected to the identity provider(accounts.google.com) and get authenticated. The identity provider issue a cookie(from accounts.google.com domain) to the user. The application receive Token from Identity provider saying user is authenticated and after validation of the token, application also issue another cookie(from gmail.com or youtube.com) to the user.
As long as user has the cookie issued from identity provider, he don't want to sign in again when he logs into an application that use the same identity provider.
In Box developer document they ask to contact them with the API key generated.

Is there is any api(Java) to get the other users mail box with the admin credential.
The primary purpose of "on-behalf-of" is to make calls on behalf of your company's users as an administrator. A great use case is if you'd like to prepopulate your new hire's account with a set of folders before they start on day 1.
In order to get the listing of enterprise users in your account, you would use the following API call if you are an administrator: http://developers.box.com/docs/#users-get-all-the-users-in-an-enterprise. This is currently not built into the Java SDK, but it is open source if you want to submit a pull request to it to add the functionality.
