Hi
Several months ago I'd written a prototype for an application that would
automatically add contacts to Google Apps users (in vb.net using the client
library).
Imports Google.GData.Apps
Imports Google.GData.Client
Imports Google.GData.Contacts
' Authenticate a Contacts Service object
sAuthToken = AppsService.GetNewAuthenticationToken(<MyGoogleDomain>,
<AdminEmail>, <AdminPassword>)
Dim gAppContacts As Google.GData.Contacts.ContactsService
gAppContacts = New Google.GData.Contacts.ContactsService(sApplicationName)
gAppContacts.SetAuthenticationToken(sAuthToken)
' set up feed to the email account
Dim query As ContactsQuery = New
ContactsQuery(ContactsQuery.CreateContactsUri(<EmailAddressOfUser>)) '
EXCEPTION THROWN HERE
Dim feed As ContactsFeed = service.Query(query)
' create contacts and add to email account via the feed
Dim inserted As List(Of ContactEntry) = New List(Of ContactEntry)
If Not feed Is Nothing Then
Dim newContact As ContactEntry = New ContactEntry
newContact.Title.Text = "TestContact"
Dim primaryEmail As EMail = New EMail(<TestContactAddress>)
primaryEmail.Primary = True
primaryEmail.Rel = ContactsRelationships.IsWork
newContact.Emails.Add(primaryEmail)
newContact.Content.Equals("Course Tutor")
' insert entry into the feed and add to list of contacts
feed.Insert(newContact )
End If
I came back to this recently to find it no longer works - the 401 -
unauthorised error gets thrown at the point shown. I am using the
SetAuthenticationToken method for the Google Groups service - no problems
with that.
I've spent some quite some time trying alternatives, the latest of which is
this;
Dim gAppContactsService As GContactsService.ContactsService
gAppContactsService = New
GContactsService.ContactsService(<MyApplicationName>)
Dim authFactory As Google.GData.Client.GAuthSubRequestFactory = Nothing
authFactory = New Google.GData.Client.GAuthSubRequestFactory("cp",
BO.Constants.APPLICATION_NAME)
gAppContactsService.RequestFactory = authFactory
gAppContactsService.setUserCredentials(<AdminEmail>, <AdminPassword>)
Dim query As GConts.ContactsQuery = New
GConts.ContactsQuery(GConts.ContactsQuery.CreateContactsUri( _
<UserEmailAddress>)) ' "401 unathorised" EXCEPTION THROWN
Dim feed As GConts.ContactsFeed = gAppContactsService.Query(query)
...
Exception thrown is
Google.GData.Client.GDataRequestException: Execution of request failed:
http://www.google.com/m8/feeds/contacts/<UserEmailAddress>/full --->
System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (401)
Unauthorized.
Can you tell me where I'm going wrong?
Also, I'm certain this was working with my prototype, maybe its not working
since I downloaded later versions of the client library?
