Has anyone tackled any of the google API yet? If not, what about soap?

not sure. SOAP surely is not Google's protocol, but general SOA era
protocol. There were some attempts to wrap SOAP, but not full
implementation. I don't remember who did it, though. The situation
related to SOAP is probably related to rather weak XML support in REBOL
in general. But some guys did nice job with some XML attempts.

Google has a *lot* of APIs:
<http://code.google.com/more/>
Sadly, SOAP is the one that I know was tackled by some REBOLers....

....but it is the one that Google has discontinued:

I am using an interface to the google maps api, but implementing thru python.
My partner is using soap calls from perl.
Regardless of the language, the protocols are the same.

Google uses different methods for different API's .
Soap-based webservices for Adwords API, Simple Post + XML payload for Apps,
some json in Open Social.
The majority of the API's require https://.
Many of the API's exist in their own little silo, though standardisation
across different API's is improving.
In most cases I'm just using REBOL as a test tool for some specific API
functions, so it hasn't been worth it for me to doing any larger framework,
(especially since some API's have a major change every couple of months).
I'm largely using other languages which deal seemlessly with the soap & xml,
might migrate these projects after R3 is done.

Thanks anyway for the help.
