Hi Dan, Thanks for the reply. I am facing the same problem
You said its not easy to find the email address. Can you please clarify, is it at all possible to find the email address and how? In my gadget, I need email address only, and I can not ask user to go through authorization as I dont need to interact with google apis. Waiting for your answer eagerly, as its a major blocker for me. Thanks -Sumit.
