google-cloud-endpoints

I am developing an app-engine connected android project using the eclipse plugin. One aspect of the app is to allow user Alpha to send pictures to user Bravo. To do that I have the following setup: User Alpha posting: send image to my app engine server through endpoints server stores image in blob store server stores blobkey in datastore User Bravo getting: server gets blobkey from datastore server gets image using blob key server sends image to android app using endpoints This setup takes upward of two (2) minutes from when my android app sends an image to when I can see it in the blob sore.

Can someone explain steps to implement login process with other OAuth2 providers This link Google Cloud Endpoints with another oAuth2 provider gives little info about writing custom authentication, but I guess for beginner like me that's not enough, please give detailed steps. Especially, interested in Facebook. PaulR You need to implement Facebook's client side APIs according to their documentation and the environment you are deploying your client app to (Browser vs iOS vs Android). This includes registering your app with them. Your registered app will direct the user to go through an

I am an Android developer building my first Google App Engine (java) back-end for my apps. I don't want anybody else to access this API other than my app. (I plan to use App engine for verifying InApp purchases in my Android app). My data is not relevant to users so, I don't want users to be able to access my API even if they are logged in with their Google accounts (on web or Android devices). I followed the steps mentioned in - "Specifying authorized clients in the API backend" ( https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/java/endpoints/auth ) like generating client IDs and add them in

The API is a backend to a mobile app. I don't need user authentication. I simply need a way to secure access to this API. Currently, my backend is exposed. The documentation seems to only talk about user authentication and authorization, which is not what I need here. I just need to ensure only my mobile app can talk to this backend and no one else. Yes, you can do that: use authentication to secure your endpoints without doing user authentication. I have found that this way of doing it is not well documented, and I haven't actually done it myself, but I intend to so I paid attention when I

We are super excited about App Engine's support for Google Cloud Endpoints . That said we don't use OAuth2 yet and usually authenticate users with username/password so we can support customers that don't have Google accounts. We want to migrate our API over to Google Cloud Endpoints because of all the benefits we then get for free (API Console, Client Libraries, robustness, …) but our main question is … How to add custom authentication to cloud endpoints where we previously check for a valid user session + CSRF token in our existing API. Is there an elegant way to do this without adding stuff
