Server to server authentication examples #45

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hi.
I want to know y there are more examples for Server to Server Oauth2.
i need my server internally keeps feeding from analytics data but the standard 
auth access only let me get a 1 hour permission.

can be the documentation be more specific in how to make this possible?

It looks like the right way to do this is using "JWTs" 
(https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2ServiceAccount). It's 
unclear whether or not this library actually has support for the JWT Server To 
Server flow.

@neoyag: the right way to do "headless" server-to-server oauth2 to (for 
example) query analytics data is indeed JWT, especially if you don't even want 
to have to fiddle around with authenticating over and over again. 

@stevv: the google-go-api-client definitely has support for this flow. 

see my example code here https://gist.github.com/rickt/7ac4f90f563a4215674b -- 
i use JWT to query and download analytics data, hopefully its exactly what 
you're looking for. 

let me know if you have any questions.

sorry for a second message, but i wrote a blog post about the pre-requisites to 
doing headless/server-to-server oauth when querying analytics data, it might 
also help...

@gpe you're right! :( take a look at 
https://gist.github.com/rickt/0c701ea850f6fc4a3301 and 
https://gist.github.com/karalabe/8933476. the 2nd example uses the newer way of 
using JWT.
