Can I create a Google account programmatically?

Question

Does anybody know if via the google api in java I can create google accounts programmatically.

Answer 1

NO

The only possible way to do this would be to use a web automation framework. Python is great for web automation using tools such as mechanize. I've never done it in Java, but you should do a google search for java programmatic web browser or java web automation.

On top of that you would have to incorporate an OCR package to beat the captcha.

There is a reason that google, nor anyone else, allows the programmatic creation of accounts. Spammers would have a field day. Within days there would be no valid accounts left for any new users to use. In short, it would be a disaster.
