Q:

Finding the Google+ post that links to my site

This question is pretty similar to this: Finding the Facebook post or page that links to my site. Obviously this time I'm talking about Google+.
My website has some traffic coming from a Goolge+ URL, like this one:
http://plus.url.google.com/url?q=<MY_WEBSITE>&rct=j&ust=1417089928139000&usg=AFQjCNEQyDY0HrEmdCDFFQpzzUrNQ2xnHw

Is there a way to find out what's the Google+ post that contains the link to my website? Can I retrieve this information from the ust or usg parameter?

A:

You can give Google Ripples a try by plugging the destination URL into the following
https://plus.google.com/ripple/details?url=
But the share may not be public, so you may not be able to see it.
