Three legged OAuth example using v2.0+ client library

[Devraj Mukherjee]

Hi all,

I've trying to follow this article
(http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/docs/auth/oauth.html#NoLibrary) and
use Three legged OAuth to authentication against Google docs.

I am using Python (and the Python 2.0+ client library), All examples
referenced from that article use the 1.0 client library.

Anyone aware of a v2.0+ client library example for OAuth out there? I
am nearly there, I manage to get an authentication token, but even
though I assign the token object to the DocsClient, it fails to fetch
a list throwing a gdata.client.Unauthorized: Unauthorized - Server
responded with: 401

Thanks for your time and any resources you can point me to.

I would like to know how to do this with PHP. I am new to oAuth.

Hi Devraj,

You should very much consider using OAuth 2 with the Python client library instead of three-legged OAuth 1.

Alain wrote an article here: http://googleappsdeveloper.blogspot.com/2011/09/python-oauth-20-google-data-apis.html which explains everything you need. In your case you won't need the calendar scope.

Thanks for pointing out Alain's article.

Does OAuth 2 work with regular Gmail accounts as well?

Hi Devraj,

Yes it works with all accounts, and is a complete replacement for 3-legged OAuth 1.

Hi Ali,

Thanks for your responses.

Wondering if there are any examples you know of for installed apps?

Hi Devraj,

The following article contains an example of a Python installed app that uses OAuth 2.0 to access the Provisioning and Email Settings APIs:

http://code.google.com/googleapps/domain/articles/provisioningoauth2console.html

You can use that as reference and replace those APIs with the Documents List API.

Hi Claudio,

Thanks for that. I assumed there was an API call that would allow me
to fetch the token (like in OAuth 1).

This example makes it clear, that I can't. Cheers.
