A reminder. The Google Plus API will close down on or before 10-Mar-2019.
That's 90 days from this announcement.
https://www.blog.google/technology/safety-security/expediting-changes-google-plus/
While it's still available, the API is here.
https://developers.google.com/+/
It has 2 halves.
- Web. This is all the visible buttons, badges, referred signin, embedded posts, comments in blogger, etc, etc.
- REST. This is the programmers API.
The People section of the REST G+API is already deprecated. It is replaced by the Google People API. This also replaces the Contacts API. It is expected that this will continue.

Remember in the EU if they still keep the data past that point there are other ways to get a copy... Just in case anyone misses the date
ReplyDeleteOh! Do Badges and Embedded posts remain in blogs/sites after G+ closure, Please ?
ReplyDeleteThanks
Ifinder Ifindi We don't know, but we have to assume they'll fail. Especially if they're designed to link to G+ pages that no longer exist. They may not fail gracefully. And we also don't know for sure because nobody from Google has made any statement about them specifically, only about the API in general.
