OK I have some new information and questions to add to this discussion: 1 - There is some confusion in the documentation over whether registration is required or not.
Both here <http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/oauth/overview.html>and here<http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/docs/RegistrationForWebAppsAuto.html>, it says registration is optional. Regardless, I have registered my app. 2 - When going through the process of registering your application with Google, you're informed that a certificate is not necessary on Google App Engine, and that the OAuth signature method is HMAC-SHA1. Can anyone confirm that as the case for using the OAuth for Python? 3- Testing this locally doesn't provide much feedback because no matter what you pass, it works. On appspot, it's the opposite problem because there's no information on what failed. I've tried the OAuth Playground, which is great, but wanted to verify that it supports testing OAuth for python. I am using it to test my Request for a Token and it fails, reporting, signature_invalid. The documentation on signature construction is confusing, in some cases it indicates sending a base string to the server that is the request url encoded, and in other places it seems to be saying that you pass the string directly as in: oauth_signature="wOJIO9A2W5mFwDgiDvZbTSMK%2FPY%3D" Can anyone clarify? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
