[future bugg?] ClientLogin deprecated #676

Closed iveqy closed 9 years ago

iveqy commented 9 years ago

Hi, first of all thank you for the execellt documentation and the blog posts about googles login process. I'm in the same situation myself (trying to get my app do to a "offline" access to get the dev_acc from a user).

Reading your code gives me your solution for this and it seems to involve ClientLogin authorization. Digging a bit deeper it seems like this will stop working in april this year. (That's why I post this bug request, to ensure that this won't be a problem for andlytics).

Do you have any plans for this? My attempts to use oauth2 fails, since I fail to require the correct permissions to access the developer console. What's your approach to this?

The app doesn't use ClientLogin, so this shouldn't be a problem. What coded did you look at?

I'm looking at andlytics/src/com/github/andlyticsproject/console/v2/AccountManagerAuthenticator.java which seems to use the Ubertoken method described in http://nelenkov.blogspot.se/2012/11/sso-using-account-manager.html (excellent blog post btw). That blogpost mentions under 1. in "Logging in using AccountManager" that the first step is to get a ClientLogin token.

If it's not a ClientLogin token, what token is it used to pass to IssueAuthToken?

This post is over 2 years old :) AccountManagerAuthenticator is not used any more, have a look at OauthAccountManagerAuthenticator.java
