The token in the url on redirect is the gsessionid. It is different than the magic-cookie in private-cookie urls. As far as I know, it is only available on the user's calendar settings page. Further confusing the terminology is that the gsessionid can be stored as an http cookie and reused. The gsessionid is a token of authentication.
