iGoogle URL API's

[Drewdah]

I would like to integrate Google data into a project I'm working on,
but due to my environment constraints I can't use anything that
requires an API key because the key is tied to a specific URL and my
environment has a randomly named URL on each installation. Anyone know
a way around something like this?

Also, I apologize if this has been asked before, but I dug through the
documentation and couldn't find any information about the following
URL APIs. Does anyone have access to some reference docs for these?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

All of the Google Data APIs:

http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/

Do not use an API key at all, with the exception of YouTube and Base
(both of which I do not think are URL-checked.)

The specific feeds you are asking about do not seem to be part of any
official API offering and are, I would assume, for gadget use only.
Perhaps you would find more information in the iGoogle developer
forum:

http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Gadgets-API

Cheers,
-Jeff

Google's separation of APIs (data vs. gadget vs. search etc.) on the
doc page is confusing. I wish they would just lay out their API
services like they do on http://www.google.com/options/ and from there
let you dive into the different ways to interface with them from
there.

Anyway, thanks for the info Jeff - I'll ask my question in the iGoogle
group.
