Does GAE support OAuth 2.0?

[WanderingGAE]

Does the API support OAuth 2.0 yet?  I see there is experimental support for Google API's, but does that mean the GAE oauth lib is 2.0 compliant yet?

As an OAuth provider, no, the built in stuff will not work, so if you want to build an OAuth 2 compatible library, you'll have to jump through some hoops to make this work: store the appropriate keys, store consumer/access/request tokens/secrets.

As a consumer, as long as you use compatible libraries, you will be able to make API calls against Google (and other OAuth 2.0) APIs. It sounds like this is what you are looking to do.

Hi,

You can take a look at the Apache Amber projects that implements OAuth
2.0 (draft 10) in Java. You might want to consider using that for AS,
RS or clients. Here's the link to the code:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/amber/

Cheers,
Maciej
