Hi,

Is it possible to use AuthSub (http://code.google.com/apis/accounts/
docs/AuthForWebApps.html)
in order to authenticate users on your website?

Linking their profile on your site with something unique provided by
Google when they
authenticate with Google?

I would have a Login button on my site. The user would be redirected
to the google authentication
page and my page receives the token so I know the user has
authenticated and then I'd need something unique
so I can look up the profile record in my database.

Any ideas?

Timothy.

Hi Timothy,

Currently it is not possible to use AuthSub as a "Single Sign On"
service for your website, as no unique identifier for a user is
returned from the feeds.

You can discuss it in this group:

Cheers,
-Jeff
