Subject:[Google Finance APIs] Re: Reading Stock Info from my portfolio with the Google .NET client librariesActions...

Hello,

I am using version 1.2.2.0 of the Data API.

I have included Google.GData.Client as a reference. I had included the namespace. I don't see a "finance" class. Do I need to create an System.Object type named "finance"? Or do I need to create a "finance" type? If I need to create a "finance" type, what do I base it on, is there a base class or an interface? If I create a System.Object named "finance", again, how do I parse the data? If it is xml based, again, how do I parse the data; is there a schema? Secondly, why do I need to provide credentials? I am not creating a portfolio, I just want a ticker.

In the FeedQuery, I can set the Uri property to " http://finance.google.com/finance" and the Query property to "GOOG". When I ran the debugger, I see that the that FeedQuery object's Uri is set to " http://finance.google.com/finance?q=GOOG"

If I set a browser to the above string , I get the information for Google. Additionally I do not need a User/Password key-value pair to see the data.

Thank you for responding to my posting,

Oscar

The below should work after referencing Google.GData.Client...

// Set the credentials this.finance = new Service("finance", "company- software-1.2"); this.finance.setUserCredentials("USERNAME", "PASSWORD");

// Setup the query query = new FeedQuery(); query.Uri = new Uri("http://finance.google.com/finance/ feeds/default/portfolios?returns=true");

// Perform the query feed = this.finance.Query(query); status = true;

// Dump to XML file XmlWriter writer = new XmlTextWriter("Portfolios.xml", Encoding.UTF8); feed.SaveToXml(writer); writer.Close();

I've download the Google Data Services SDK and I've just set up a portfolio in Google Finance. I've added a couple of stocks that I want to monitor to my portfolio.

Now, I'm interested in reading the entries in my portfolio from a C# application. I'm not sure where to begin. The Finance API docs have all HTML and XML code examples but I'm using the Google class libraries.

Can anyone provide a simple example of how to read data from my financial profile?

Thanks

Patrick
