Re: New features supported by Google Identity Toolkit

[Naveen Agarwal]

Thank you for using the Google Identity Toolkit. Here are some of the new features/updates.

1) Support for 38 languages. Read the details here.
2) Option to use OAuth2 protocol with Google.
This will unlock a number of new features. First of all you'll get a user's profile picture. And soon you'll be able to request additional "scopes" as part of the user approval to use with other Google APIs. E.g. if your product needs access to a user's contact list, a user can give that approval in one step as part of the sign-in. There are a number of Google APIs that can only be accessed using OAuth2 and this would be the easiest way to get an access_token. You should try this out and give us feedback. Please do let us know when you migrate to using OAuth2. See the section (Supporting federated login with Google OAuth2 IDP) on this page for details.
3) The import of profile picture from msn/hotmail now works (no need for you do anything).
Thanks

I look forward to using some of the new features, thanks!

Just for clarity, do these features become active when accessing version 1.2? Or do they apply to all versions?
