  7. Google Sites integration

    Hi, I am writing a script for Google Sites to get the list of Diigo bookmarks, to be filtered and displayed on a pages. I am using this command to get data from Diigo:

    var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch("https://secure.diigo.com/api/v2/bookmarks?key=my_key&user=Sensorica Group&count=10");

    My user name is Sensorica Group
    Here I replaced the real key by my_key

    When I send this I get the 401
    error ?!

  11. Adding maultiple invitees at a time?

    I do not use Gmail, Yahoo, or Facebook, I use an exchange server at my University, so it is hard to add invitees to my class group one email at a time. Is there an easier way to add groups of invitees from say an Outlook-like distribution list?

    Sandy_diigoSandy_diigo responded

    You can export the contact list from outlook and send it to info@diigo.com. We will deal with it at the back-end.

  12. List item lack the "Share" link.

    Why do all items in my lists lack the "Share" link? Items not in a list have the "Share" link. Bug or feature?

  14. How do I notify you that I need assistance to convert regular accounts to student accounts?

    I have had several classes of students create their own accounts and now I want to turn them into student accounts. I don't know how to contact you to give you their usernames. This would be a great feature to be able to control in the Teacher Console. Can you help?

  15. „Follow me function"

    Is it possible to select which updates I like to get from people I follow?

    For example: My colleague bookmarks items related to the tags „facebook“ and „twitter". If I follow him, I see all his updates. But I only want to see the bookmarks related to facebook.
