Two diff ways can be used. 1. Google Account auth. There is a simple example somewhere on the tutorial on this. Should be easy.
2. Another way (which I am using as not all my users have google account), is to create local User account and hash of a password. Only client knows the password. Then create a session when user auths. Send session id back and cache it. You can do a lot of fancy security stuff with that (out of the scope of this reply). Then every call needs to have session id. I would also include a some integrity check by HMACing the payload etc. Also, one can use a clever JSESSION cookie usage if on the browser. -mandar On Apr 17, 6:26 pm, formtester <[email protected]> wrote: > Still couldn't figure out how to authenticate myself with App Engine > service, and get data from it. > Anyone ever did this before? > > On Apr 15, 12:48 am, formtester <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Hi, > > > I'm looking for a Google API that will let me talk to App Engine > > Service, and get user's information regarding their App Engine > > service.
