Hi Alain,
We masked the Atom + XML as JSON, as you indicated.
$.post("https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/groups/default/full";,
{ access_token : strToken ,
alt : "json" ,
v : '3.0' ,
body : "[<atom:entry xmlns:gd='
http://schemas.google.com/g/2005'>" +
"<atom:category scheme='
http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind'" +
"term='
http://schemas.google.com/contact/2008#group'/>" +
"<atom:title type='text'>"+
strGroupName +"</atom:title>" +
"<gd:extendedProperty name='" +
strExtended +"'>" +
"<info>"+strGroupInfo+"</info>"
+
"</gd:extendedProperty>" +
"</atom:entry>]"
},
function(pData)
{
var pResponse = $.parseJSON(pData.feed);
if($.isFunction(pCbkFunc)) pCbkFunc(1);
},
'jsonp'
);
The result is the same - response is 200 and no group is created
