How to get a real-time stock quote using Google API
After resolving the problem with authentication, I continued playing around with Google Finance API, using HTTP and XML. The API offers some nice functionality to retrieve user portfolio content, but it doesn’t take long to realize that there is no support for retrieving (real-time) stock quotes, probably for some good reason like licensing. But then, there is a way of getting real-time stock quotes on your Google Spreadsheet using the GoogleFinance() formula. Can this fact get us closer to retrieving real-time stock quotes using Google Data API?
