I am building a chatbot using Dialogflow and i am completely new to this concept as far as the reference website and they had pointed the out the Dialogue flow V1 that has been deprecated right now?
Can you please share some example code on how to interact with the dialogflow API for V2 using Swift?
I tried some code with simple Rest api post request which didn't work.
Theoretically, you can call the Dialogflow Detect Intent API directly from your application using the REST interface. Also, where you need to build your own UI and take care of the authentication process
Whereas the easy process would be to use any third-party tool like Kommunicate where it provides a ready-to-use Swift SDK that already uses pre-configured Dialogflow integration and a dashboard that makes it easy to integrate and build a chatbot. Please check this link for more information
PS: I work for Kommunicate

Currently was playing around with a robotic process application called Blue Prism and learned you can drop a URL link to a WSDL location to consume api calls. I tested using a free service and it worked great.
My question is in regards to Google Sheets API, a project has come up where this would be very usefull however I'm not able to locate or if one even exists (A WSDL or WADL) for the google sheets api.
If anyone could give me any direction on this that would be fantastic.
Google docs can be automated using REST web services. You can find more information about google docs api at google sheets API page.
BluePrism has an out-of-box tools to work with SOAP request with WSDL, but unfortunately it does not have out-of-box support for REST web services.
If you'd like to use API to interact with google docs, then you can do that, but you'll have to create your own code stages to do that.
In webhooks from Dialogflow, is there a way to trigger Google Assistant APIs, get back the result and display in Dialogflow?
Thanks.
Short answer: no. The Assistant API currently only takes voice input, and there is no way to get the user's voice in Dialogflow. In theory, you could run it through a TTS, feed that to the API, get the response back, and feed that through STT, but that seems like a pain.
What are you actually trying to do?
Google Assistant webhook will not make your bot more intelligent. You need to create right intents in your Dialogflow Agent to make it intelligent enough to do Natural Language Processing and trigger the right intent. Whatever webhook you create (Google Assistant or other) they will just work as you have coded.
In short, Dialogflow is doing the NLP stuff and making your bot intelligent and webhook will do tasks based on the identified intent or action.
To integrate GA with Dialogflow, best way would be to use NodeJS client for Action-on-Google and add it to your webhook project like require('actions-on-google').DialogflowApp
Follow the documentation and understand how to create a GA webhook for Dialogflow.
It would be better if you can explain exactly what you want to do. That way, the community members can answer your question in a better way.
I am trying to use Google's new speech to text api: https://cloud.google.com/speech/docs/rest-tutorial . They currently have python and node.js examples.
Unfortunately, my application is RoR. I was looking through https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcloud-ruby , which is a gem that interacts with google cloud services (but not speech). I was hoping that I could use the two together to come out with a working solution, but my knowledge of how to use API's is limited.
Enough background, my questions are:
Does anyone know if Google is going to put out a Ruby version of the speech to text api? If yes, is there a timeline?
If I am impatient, how would I go about using their current API's. By this I mean, is there a good resource for someone to learn how to use generic API's?
The gcloud-ruby gem now supports google-cloud-speech.
To address your other questions, there are no language specific versions of the APIs themselves. They are all HTTP APIs (either REST or gRPC), so they can be used from anything that can make HTTP requests. It can be tricky to use them directly though, because of things like how authentication is handled, which is why client libraries exist for different languages.
If you want to learn more about how to use the REST APIs directly, first take a look at the doc 'Using OAuth 2.0 for Web Server Applications' to find out how to manually authenticate, which has examples for Ruby and raw HTTP/REST.
It's now trivial to create a web app that sits atop Parse.com. Now that I have this webapp, I want to expose parts of it to other developers via an oauth accesible api. So, they can develop an app that lets my site users 'give them permission' via oauth and they can now access the api.
How would I start going about doing this?
Update: After #Mubix response, I felt the following clarification would help
Currently I am accessing Parse from the server via a REST api, to get around any javascript security issues re:api keys etc. So, the api would be served of a server other than Parse. Also, the server code is in javascript / nodejs. I came across https://github.com/jaredhanson/oauth2orize which seems a likely candidate, was wondering how others are doing it and if anyone has actually gone a further step and integrated Parse access.
Hmmm .. Intereesting question!
Legal:
First of all their ToS doesn't seem to prohibit what you are trying to do but you should read it carefully before you start.
Implementation:
While parse doesn't provide feature to build your own APIs you could implement something yourself. You could treat the third party developers as users of your app. And you can use the ACL to control access.
Problems:
I don't see any way to implement oAuth entirely within parse.
How will third party apps access your API? Ideally you would like them to use a REST interface but with the parse.com REST API you won't be able to manage access to different parts of your data.
Conclusion:
It seems like too much trouble to implement the API entirely within parse. I would suggest that you write a thin API layer that takes care of auth and uses parse as the backend. You can use one of the service side libraries available for parse. eg. PHP Library, Node Parse.
I'm trying to create a redistributable web application that will integrate with Google Analytics through the Google Reporting API. Customer will install the application on their server.
I'm following this tutorial (I'm using PHP, but I believe this is not of importance for my question)
https://developers.google.com/analytics/resources/tutorials/hello-analytics-api
This works fine. No issues there.
However I can't figure out one missing element:
The tutorial starts with sending me to the Google APIs console where I have to create and configure a new API project and create and configure a client ID.
That's a lot of work that requires fairly technical knowledge (redirect url, selecting correct API, error-prone copy-and-pasting, etc.)
So my questions:
Is there an API so I can programmatically set this up for my user?
If that's not possible, is there a more user-friendly way to obtain Analytics reporting that is future-proof? (I noticed they are currently deprecating a few older APIs)
Unfortunately that's AFAIK not possible.
You could go one of the following ways:
Move client_id and client_secret to some configuration file and help your customer with deployment.
Show a one-time setup wizard for your app and guide your customer step-by-step. There you can at least provide him with the right callback URLs.
Regard your application as "installed application" and instrument curl or something similar for sending the requests.
