Foursquare categoryId search and photos - ios

I'm making a Foursquare API call that returns specified venues in a given area. So in my API call I pass in the parameters of a categoryId and a lat and long. I'm trying to find out if I can get all the photos associated with each returned venue within this same call or do I have to make a separate call and pass in the venue specific id?. Here is what my current url for my venue search call looks like:
"https://api.foursquare.com/v2/venues/search?ll=44.7681,-85.6222&categoryId=4bf58dd8d48988d14b941735&v=20130815&client_id=XXXXXX&client_secret=XXXXXX"
Thanks in advance!

If you look at the API documentation for FourSquare, there is a separate API call that is required to retrieve a photo(s) based on the venue id.

Microsoft Graph API: How to use Get Call Method?

I'm using the Microsoft Graph API to retrieve information about Microsoft Teams.
Now i want to retrieve information about the call using the method in the documentation below:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/call-get?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http
Here is written that i have to use the following url:
GET /communications/calls/{id}
The thing is that i don't know what is the id i need to use because in the documentation is not specified.
I try to use the group id, channel id and personal id of Teams but none of them works. Somebody knows how to use this method?
Thanks
See Properties of call resource type, id is the call id. Read-only.
When you create a call, you will get an id in the response. see the response sample.
When you need to get the call, just put this id value into GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/communications/calls/{id}.

Now I am doing a Swift app by Foursquare. I have to fetch the Venue data and the photo of it at the same time. But the use Foursquare api to fetch the Venue photo data needs the Venue ID, which means cannot do the two fetch together? Can I do that together?

What does hydrate mean on Twitter?

In the Twitter API there is a status_lookup method that "hydrates" a tweet. The docs are unclear about what this means. So when do I need to hydrate a tweet?
If I have tweets from /statuses/user_timeline why would I need to hydrate them?
Please provide an example before and after of normal tweet and hydrated tweet and explain the difference.
From the docs:
"This method is especially useful to get the details (hydrate) a collection of Tweet IDs."
HYDRATE = get complete details (i.e. fields) of a tweet.
Many Twitter API calls that return tweets do not return all the fields. So, statuses/lookup may be used as a secondary call to get these fields.
For example, search/tweets may return tweets that have embedded video, but it will not return the URL of the embedded video. So, a second call to statuses/lookup is required to get the video.

How can I get a list of all the venues that are "Managed" from Foursquare API

I am currently using Foursquare API to query out a list of venues.
However, I need to query out some specific venue that are "managed". (Managed means the venues whose owners have a Foursquare account and use Foursquare for the business)
However, I can't use the way in "https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/venues/managed" to get the result because it is only for the current user.
I check the venue search response and found that there is a value called "verified"(https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/responses/venue). Is that means "managed"?
The "verified" attribute indicates that the venue has been claimed by its owner. See https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/responses/venue for more information.

How to get the 'id' for accessing user details in instagram

How do i get the id for accessing user info by (Hashie::Mash)user(id) method of the instagram API or accessing his/her location by (Hashie::Mash)location(id)?
I am using rails for my project.
You can search for a user to get his/her id, e.g:
shaynesids = Instagram.user_search("Shayne Sweeney")
That will give you all the ids on an array of user matching Shayne Sweeny (hopefully just one), then you can use it with user(id), like this:
myuser = Instagram.user(shaynesids.first)
Note: In here I'm assuming that the search it's gonna return at least one result, you will need to be careful in your code to account for errors, because it could return an empty array.
