Hi Chris, That's correct - we actually expect most sophisticated applications to work chiefly with retrieving OWNER and OWNER_FRIENDS data in order to allow user to present applications customized to their own profile. However, you cannot just find/replace VIEWER with OWNER to make an application work this way - you will only be able to write to VIEWER app data, for example.
The approach I've used is to check to see whether VIEWER == OWNER when rendering the gadget. If true, then I give extra UI to allow customization of the application. In your case, when the viewer is the owner, you would want to present the quiz questions, or possibly a button to take another quiz, storing all the results in VIEWER data. In the case where the viewer is not the owner, then you would only want to render the OWNER's quiz results. Hope this helps, ~Arne On Feb 13, 2008 8:35 AM, Markitecht <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Instead of saving/displaying the data of the VIEWER of the > applications, my goal is for the OWNER of the app to take a quiz, > store the result, and display it on the profile view. > > I am getting an error when trying to modify the tutorial code and > instead of 'opensocial.DataRequest.PersonId.VIEWER' use > 'opensocial.DataRequest.PersonId.OWNER' > > Any ideas?
