I'm making a website to help people keep track of their online information. I want to support login via Google Account Authentication... so I followed the instructions at http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/AuthForWebApps.html and supplied a link to Google's login page.
After the user types in his password, I received a token back as described. My question is, is there a way to use this token and retrieve the user's first and last name, as well as their GMail address? The documentation seem to imply that the token can be used to request data from Google Calendar or Blogger, but that would imply that the user has signed up for those services, which is an assumption that I don't wish to make. If there is no way, I suppose the only recourse is to use the Gmail ATOM feed, ask the user to type in username and password there, and parse the result for the Gmail address.... Thanks in advance -cal --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Data API" group.
