Is there already a Google+ API?

Question

I would like to know if there is already a Google+ API available to the developers. I have not yet found something?

The API is now here available: https://developers.google.com/+/

There is native app in Android Market :) https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.apps.plus. So, there is some API but not public :) — dariol, Jul 11 '11 at 09:19
Updated URL to Google + REST-API is: [Google+](https://developers.google.com/+/web/api/rest/) — Hemin, Mar 17 '17 at 12:57

There is an unofficial API, PHP.GooglePlusAPI, that you can use this to fetch public data. It's something to play around with while we're waiting for the full official API from Google:

Update:

I've just added support for feed posts as well. You can use this library in your server-side code to read a public profile, post, and relationship data, cache it in a MySQL database, and serve the data to a front-end as a JSON or JSONP service.

I think that you'll find this article a good read.

Google Plus doesn't have a public API yet, nor has it announced when one will be available. But if you want to find out about future developer opportunities, Google has a mailing list you can sign-up for to receive more information in the future.

Taken from article linked above.

The API itself is there - it's restful, and requires a client library for each language in order to be used.

Here is one for Java: Googl-plus-java-api
