Quick Demo: Back-filling moments to Google+ History

We talked about it briefly before, but it’s now possible to write moments in the past so that publishers can back-fill a user’s history with all the moments that they could have created.

The following code shows an example payload for what you could be sending to the Google+ API:

{
  "type": "http://schemas.google.com/AddActivity",
  "target": {
    "url": "https://developers.google.com/+/plugins/snippet/examples/thing"
  },
  "startDate": "2010-12-01T17:00:00.000-02:00"
}

You can try it out from the Google+ Client-side flow live demo.  And yeah, it’s awesome. Currently, you can write moments to the future, but as with all the developer features it’s subject to change as we review how things work while in preview.
