Hi Bala thanks for replying.
I've been trying to follow the same steps but without success. I managed to obtain the authentication code but after that, in order to do the POSTing, must I set up a new connection to http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/default/private/full ? I have set the content-type to 'application/atom+xml' already. here's a snippet of my code: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ // setting up a connection to the login URL. URL url = new URL("https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin";); URLConnection conn = url.openConnection(); conn.setDoOutput(true); conn.setDoInput(true); BufferedReader rd = null; String line; // Login and obtain authentication code (successful) String data = "POST /accounts/ClientLogin HTTP/1.0 "; data += "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded "; data += "accountType=GOOGLE&[EMAIL PROTECTED]&Passwd=ifast123&service=cl&Source=test- test-1"; OutputStreamWriter wr = new OutputStreamWriter(conn.getOutputStream()); wr.write(data); wr.flush(); // some code here to extract the 'auth' // Here I set up a new conenction to the feed address. url = new URL("http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/default/private/ full"); conn = url.openConnection(); conn.setDoOutput(true); conn.setDoInput(true); // Formatting the 'data' to send over // this is the part that I'm not sure of. // auth contains my authentication code. data = "POST http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/default/private/full "; data += "Authorization: GoogleLogin auth=" + auth + " "; data += " Content-Type: application/atom+xml "; data += " <entry xmlns='http://...> (copied and pasted from the google example)</entry>"; // sending over the HTTP request wr = new OutputStreamWriter(conn.getOutputStream()); wr.write(data); wr.flush(); wr.close(); // print response from request rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream())); while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) { out.println(line); } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'll end up with these 2 errors: 1. java.io.FileNotFoundException 2. '400: Bad Request' for url: 'http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/ default/private/full' Any idea what went wrong?
