Re: About persisting authentication for Java program

[Sérgio Gomes]

Hi there,

What sort of application are you developing? Is it a desktop application, a general web server application, or an AppEngine application? This involve slightly different flows, so it would be helpful to know.

Cheers,

Sérgio

Hi all,

I want to use Adsense Management API to grab my adsense account data daily. The plan is to develop a Java program that does this.

Right now I have a working example Java program, but every time I need to manually click "allow access" button to proceed. I know that we can persist authentication information by looking at the doc.  So does anyone know a working example that persists authentication for Java programs.

Thanks in advance.

Sergio,

In case it's a server that need to call this service (no user in the middle) and get results, do you have any code example on how to do the oauth 2.0 authentication procedure ? 

Sorry for interrupting Xiaohu.

Regards,

Dor

Hi Dor,

In that case, I'd suggest you look at either the installed application or web server flows and use those for the initial authentication of your app. After that, just make sure you store and reuse the credential data, and you should never have to authenticate again. The client library guide should get you started.

Cheers,

Sérgio
