I'm helping develop an online ordering process for a local business, and they are offering food delivery to their location from specific partnered restaurants. The problem we're looking to solve is making the experience as smooth as possible for the user, so we're aiming to fill out these specific data fields to make the process smoother. They have QR codes on their tables, that link directly to their websites ordering page, from there the user can select from a few local restaurants, and are linked to their online ChowNow menus.
Does anyone have any experience using ChowNow, and knows if there is any way to pass off specific delivery instructions to ChowNow, specifically an address, from the link provided to the users from the QR code on their table?
We haven't found anything too helpful on this problem from ChowNow's official documentation or support. There are alternate ways that we have in mind to solve this problem if need be, but this is the desired solution from the client, and we would like to have stick with this method if possible.

I know you can login to GMB, verify the business and than add the "Order Online" link from the GMB console.
We are an agency and expanding fast so we are trying to find out a way of adding our link to all our customer's GMB pages without needing to getting verified for each of them separately but rather using the API if possible.
Anyone here has experience doing this? I looked through the API, but can not find anything like this.
It is not possible to influence this attribute. See this article
In some cases, links to certain third-party booking services will appear automatically on business listings. These links cannot be edited in Google My Business.
If you want to remove or fix a link in your own listing, please contact the third-party provider’s support team or a technical contact to request they remove your data from the information they are sending Google.
So I am writing a rails application for my friends food truck business.
The functionality that I am trying to create with this specific application is the ability for him to update the google map by posting a Geo-location tag on twitter.
A lot of the ruby gems that deal with google maps seem to be depreciated so I'm a bit lost at the moment. If anyone could just point me in the correct direction I would appreciate it.
I realize that this feature is just a quality of life feature but id like to be able to do it with embedded ruby and not have to break out the JavaScript (ugh). Ideal this kind of automation would be great for this particular type of website because my friend won't always have access to the back-end of the website when he is on the move. (Already able to update a map from an admin backend but its not good enough for a business that moves multiple places in a given day.)
anyways, thanks in advance. (if anyone wants me to post any of my code I will.)
So after reading your question, I thought it would be fun to tinker with the Twitter API again since I haven't used it in a while.
I went ahead and created a sample application for you that basically does what you were asking for. It looks for recent tweets from a user, grabs the latest one, then updates a Google map with a marker on that location.
Keep in mind that this was quickly thrown together, so it's far from perfect. But all the concepts should be there!
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the app or anything else. I'm always happy to help.
I am trying to collect some information on the usage of quizzes and turnitin.com enabled dropboxes for specific courses within the d2l database. All I really need is a way to tell via valence whether or not a course offering has a turnitin.com enabled dropbox and/or a quiz associated with it, though other useful information would be nice as well. Is there a way to do this with valence? I should note that I am aware of how to access a list of standard dropboxes, but I cannot seem to find how to tell if that particular dropbox is turnitin.com enabled. I have no starting point for quizzes. I appreciate your help, and please let me know if I can clarify anything. Thank you.
There is no current way to identify, through Valence, a TurnItIn enabled Dropbox. Our TurnItIn integration is an extension available to customers who have the appropriate TurnItIn licensing. Because we cannot assume it is in place, we cannot expose this data through Valence. I am not sure if this information would be available through TurnItIn API's.
In regards to Quizzes, today we don't have Quiz data exposed through Valence. One option for you, which isn't perfect, would be to parse through Content Topics looking for Quicklinks which contain a reference type of quiz. This would provide you with a list of how many quizzes are linked into the course's content experience.
Create mobile application, which gives the user ability to look for certain places (payment terminals) nearby and to add new ones. Of course user will have ability to edit places, change some of their meta-info fields, add photos, etc.
I can understand, how to implement such things at the mobile device side(i mean interface and model), but can't imagine, what i have to do at the "google-side" to store locations and get them to device.
I'm looking through developers.google.com for appropriate service, but google have so much different "Maps" services and their variety makes me disappointed, which one can give me necessary instruments.
I'm sorry, if my question is too stupid but i can't realize how to implement such functionality.
If anybody ever made such applications, please help me to find, at least, the service, which can help me to implement such functionality. Sample code at github will be the great!
You're looking to build a "back-end" or a database to store the locations that you are interested in. This means that you will save them on a server, that you will access through requests over the internet from your iPhone.
For a really simple back-end to set up, check out Parse that is very simple to implement.
I'm currently developing an affiliate tool with rails which is generating some unique affiliate links. I used to create those links via bitly and simply fetched the link-clicks through the bitly API. Awesome but if you delete your cookies, boom - click again and it counts again. So kind of useless.
I tried to familiarize with the google analytics api to count unique clicks but believe this is just overhead. Storing the IP address is also not the way I like to work.
Now I'm thinking to keep it simple and store the user's mac address in a database table when he clicks a link. The "stat model" is related to the link model and so I would find out which link was clicked by which mac address. If mac address exists already in the table for the link, don't count it.
Is this a proper way to solve my problem?
I read several articles where also mac addresses can be faked so I fear this can be hijaked in some way.
If you have any awesome ways to work with unique link tracking in rails, I would be curious to work with them.
Thanks for any help and tips.
