Not ready to build #AI agents but want to get started? I once wrote bit.ly/3Kqv78c about basic @NodeJS & #Python #genAI web apps with @Google's #Gemini #API. Prototyping is great but how do @googledevs make it global? @GoogleCloudTech #serverless! bit.ly/48dnMSv

It's humbling when developers say I've inspired them with my @WorkspaceDevs @GoogleCloudTech & @GoogleDevs #API video content that reduce onboarding friction & get you going! My latest post bit.ly/48dXXCj looks back at some of my faves @The_Python_DEV @ThePracticalDev

To all @WorkspaceDevs & @GoogleDevs looking to use the @Gmail #API to automate workflows or build #MCP servers for agentic apps in #Python or @NodeJS: my latest post is your developer intro! bit.ly/4ljSH2W @GoogleWorkspace @The_Python_DEV @The_Node_DEV @ThePracticalDev

A unified #Gemini #API client library GREAT! Unfortunately old code online lives forever, affecting web search & vibecoding #LLMs. @googledevs learn to verify you have modern code & upgrade from 1.0/1.5 to 2.5 #Python & @NodeJS bit.ly/4kFkmLm #GenAI #AI @GoogleCloudTech

Wildly varying #Python samples for @Google #APIs online or #vibecoding tool? One dirty little secret: there was an OLDER #auth library the past decade! The docs are gone but samples remain for you & #LLM training dev.to/googleworkspac… @GoogleDevs @The_Python_DEV @WorkspaceDevs

Honored to be recognized by the #DEVCommunity editorial staff for my #Python & @NodeJS post this month for @GoogleAI & @GoogleDevs!!

Generating images has come to @GoogleAI's #Gemini 2.0 Flash model. We already know it takes text or multimodal input, generating text or audio, but now @googledevs can create images via #API. Learn how in #Python & @NodeJS dev.to/wescpy/generat… #GenAI #generativeAI #AI #ML #LLM

Using @Google #APIs requires the right credentials. I already covered #API keys & OAuth client IDs so now let's look at the last: service accounts, primarily used with @GoogleCloud & sometimes @GoogleWorkspace dev.to/wescpy/getting… @GoogleCloudTech @GoogleDevs @thepracticaldev

@JessicaKat23176 @googledevs I only write about CODING Gmail, not USING it. To recover your account, see the support page at support.google.com/accounts/answe… ... good luck!

@googledevs @wescpy Pls I need to recover my gmail

Expediting expense reports from receipts with #Gmail Add-ons, the latest #DevByte with @wescpy Read our blog → goo.gl/KUVCDu

Autogenerate #Markdown or plain text into @GoogleDocs & format it too; no AI needed! Doing it by hand once/twice is ok but doesn't scale, so leverage the Docs #API & be @WorkspaceDevs who code @GoogleWorkspace #Python @NodeJS @GoogleDrive @GoogleDevs dev.to/googleworkspac…

You may know about #serverless platforms like AWS Lambda or @Google #AppEngine, but @GoogleCloud has a more modern #CaaS option: Cloud.Run from @GoogleCloudTech. @GoogleDevs, learn how to deploy #Python & @NodeJS apps to GCP in my latest post dev.to/wescpy/guide-t…

An exciting feature in the new #Gemini 2.0 Flash model is its ability to generate text-based audio clips, allowing you to jump from text-to-speech to "IDEA-to-speech!" @googledevs: Learn how to do it from the #API in #Python TODAY dev.to/wescpy/generat… #GenAI #generativeAI #AI

Have @GoogleDevs ever wondered what the world's easiest @Google API is? Of its 480+ APIs, ONE of them HAS to be easiest right? An #API with NO client library or function calls? How about NO code? dev.to/wescpy/the-wor… As easy as an HTTP GET request with an API key! @GoogleMaps

Where can you run apps in @GoogleCloud? Hi @GoogleDevs I'm starting a new series on all the @GoogleCloudTech #serverless platforms for #Python & @NodeJS devs. There's #CloudFunctions FaaS & #CloudRun CaaS but the "OG" is #AppEngine PaaS thus starting there dev.to/wescpy/hosting…

@madz4you123 @FerL67 .@madz4you123 is correct. Hear it straight from the KGB horse's mouth in 1983: youtu.be/bX3EZCVj2XA They've been doing this to us since before then, and this is the result. Listen VERY carefully to all his words, and remember this was '83

@alicekeeler @mhawksey @chasmaxson @googledevs They don't seem like restricted nor sensitive scopes so you should be good to go!

I hope this was not a fluke... My scopes from the oAuth were ingested for the marketplace sdk. I will be crying tears of joy. @mhawksey @chasmaxson @wescpy @googledevs

One thing users do is import CSV into @GoogleSheets. Doing it by hand once/twice is ok but doesn't scale, so OF COURSE let's do it via API (but not the Sheets API) & be @WorkspaceDevs who code @GoogleWorkspace dev.to/wescpy/import-… #Python @NodeJS @GoogleDrive @thepracticaldev

@kelseyhightower @iMilnb @jeremy_daly Agreed. In my experience as a Sr SWE, it's absolutely required to spend time gathering requirements and outlining the proposed architecture into a Design Doc. Even when it IS time to code, do the proper scaffolding 1st, think about the test plan, deployment/CI-CD, etc. THEN code!

For all you @GoogleDevs or @Google developers who are fans of @YouTube : check out my 1st post introducing its #APIs & demoing how to #search for #videos with its #Data #API in #Python and @NodeJS dev.to/wescpy/intro-t…

Anyone else going to be in Boston mid-Sep? Hope to meet you @GoogleCloudTech & @GoogleDevs there where I'll be showing @WorkspaceDevs how to use APIs from multiple product families like @GoogleCloud @GoogleWorkspace and @GoogleAI in #Python and possibly @NodeJS
