I would like to use the REST API to disable the survey monkey branding in the footer of surveys on a paid plan, how can I do that?
It's not currently possible to remove the footer from the Survey using the API.
This is a feature that should probably be added when creating/updating a Survey. You can watch the public docs on GitHub to be notified about changes. In the meantime this has to be set from the web interface.
Note that you can remove branding from email invitation messages by setting is_branding_enabled to false.

I have a logic app which posts a channel chat message to teams automatically when a new item is created in SharePoint. This I have working but our client requires that all the team members receive a banner alert and activity feed which I am having a lot of difficulty with.
What I've already tried...
Using a Incoming web hook on the teams channel - this was a very simple way to post from the logic app but the incoming webhook don't seem to support mentions.
Using the msft graph api - The /team/channel/message endpoint can post messages and user mentions but the this endpoint doesnt support channel or team mentions. It also appears that the graph API needs to use delegated permissions to post messages in teams. I'm using application permissions as this is a logic app. The logic app HTTP post connector doesnt offer the "connect as username#tenant.com" some of the other connectors use.
Using the flowbot post message - Like the above channel and team mentions are supported here so the post is added to the channel but with no notification to the team members
Using a notification only bot - I thought I nearly had it with this one. Microsoft's node bot sample number 57 looked like it can do most of what I want, it iterates through the users in the team and messages them this a customisable alert message...
https://github.com/microsoft/BotBuilder-Samples/tree/master/samples/javascript_nodejs/57.teams-conversation-bot
However I can't see how this bot can be triggered from my logic app as it seems to require an existing conversation context or an #mention from within teams to start communicating with users.
What I'm considering trying next
Iterating users within the logic app - Next I plan to try and get team membership from the graph API and iterate the members in the Logic App, posting a message to each user separately. I had hoped to utilise the group #mention feature as a simpler way so I'd be grateful if anyone had any thoughts on other ways of doing this, or maybe there's something wrong with what I've already tried that you could give me some expertise on.
Thanks in advance ;)

You're on the right track with the Bot, but you're wanting to send something called a "Pro-active" message. You need the bot registered in the channel in order to get access to a few key properties (conversation id, service url, etc.), but you can use those to send a message from -outside- your bot (e.g. in an Azure Function). You might be able to do this directly from a Logic App, but I haven't tested that specifically.
To find out more, see my answer at Programmatically sending a message to a bot in Microsoft Teams but I've also got a recent blog post that you might find interesting for background on this at How Bots Actually Work.
Hope that helps
You can use Graph to post a message in 1:1 chat as long as you have the chat it. You can find the answer in this post Send message to personal Chat via Graph API
You can also call Graph API from Logic Apps.

Normally, I invite new members via. email, that I get from them individually.
Let's say I want to campaign publicly for volunteers to join our community, then what is the best approaches with various level of control?
It is not possible out-of-the-box, but you can develop a custom website, where people can apply for your Slack and enter the name and email address.
You can then forward their request for you to approve (e.g. a page with a table of all open requests where each can be approved or denied or an automatically generated email to you etc).
Finally you can auto-invite every approved user with his email address. The Slack API has an undocumented API function that allows that. Check here for my post about that method.
I have done a similar website for inviting people from a gaming community (Eve Online), where they have to first authenticate themselves with their game login before getting an invite to our Slack. It works pretty well. I made this website with PHP, but basically every server based script language will work.
My company is looking to have Google Now Bill Reminders from emails to our clients so they are reminded when to pay.
We aren't looking to integrate a separate app or anything, we just want it directly through Google Now/Gmail.
My question is, is there any definitive structure our emails need to be in, or any information we must include for the Google Now reminders to work? Or does the Now card need to be integrated completely in order to work?
Any links etc to documentation regarding the bill reminder feature so we can look into this? Or if it does need to be integrated, are there any links to API integration so we can forward this to a developer?
Thanks in advance
Based from this Google Now documentation:
Google Now brings users the right information at just the right time. For example, Google Now already provides updates to restaurant and hotel reservations or flight information received in Gmail. By marking up email notifications to your users, you can use Google Now to bring them similar updates about your services and products.
Be mindful that only some types are supported in Google Now. For example, use Event Reservation type to declare a reservation for one or more guests at an event.
For your case, you can check on this blog and this forum. Basically, Google Now is most useful for its ability to contextualize information from your Calendar and Gmail to send you alerts when you actually need them. Google Now introduced a new feature that makes it easier to keep track of which phone/Internet/education loan bills are actually due. Source.
I need to post videos to specific YouTube channels via the V3 api managed by a single account.
I am trying to use the onBehalfOfContentOwner & onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel fields to upload the video but I'm somewhat confused about the account requirements in order to enable this.
My understanding is that it is only possible to do this with channels that are managed by a Partner Account. I have set up my account as a partner account and the next thing the documentation talks about is using a CMS account. To give permissions to manage channels. The documentation seems to suggest that a CMS account is generated automatically once you become a partner account, but I can see no sign of this.
The documentation then goes on to talk about having to have a Partner Content ID in order to get a Full CMS account. This appears to be something that you have to apply for.
Is it really necessary that the account and channels have to be set up in this way or is there an easier way to manage this?
I am using Twitter as an OAuth provider for ASP.NET MVC 4 web site. I would like to be able to follow up with a registered user at a later date, either by email or via a tweet. Outside of having the user follow me on Twitter, do I have any other options to communicate with the user?
Here is what I unsuccessfully considered:
It appears that there is no way to get access to the email address since Twitter OAuth API does not return it.
It appears I cannot send a direct message unless a user
follows me on Twitter.
"Read/Write/DirectMessage" permissions seem
too intrusive -- all I want to do is send a user a message that a
new product is released -- I don't need any of the write
capabilities that this level of permissions provides.
To recap, if a user used Twitter to sign in to my website, what are my options to contact that user at a later date?
Thanks.
Twitter's solution for this sort of person-to-person communication is the Direct Message, however, Twitter has (rightfully) decided that both parties need to consent to this channel being available. This decision is intended to reduce the amount of spam in the Twitter ecosystem.
Posting public tweets that mention the username will get your users' attention, but it is also broadcasting their relationship with your company to the entire Twitter ecosystem. You will, essentially, be advertising their relationship with your company without their permission. This approach will bring you headaches sooner or later.
Email is probably a better choice for the sort of announcement to existing customers.
