OAuth, OpenID and the Google Data APIs

With a properly generated authentication token, your web apps can securely consume and create content in Google applications. This talk will provide you with the concepts and tools you need to get started with OAuth and the Google Data APIs. We’ll show you when and where to use the APIs, code some example apps, and demonstrate how they all integrate with Google APIs and other developer products.

We’ll also discuss how to setup you web app to let visitors sign in using their Google user accounts. Federated Login, based on the OpenID standard, frees users from having to set up separate login accounts for different web sites, and frees web site developers from the task of implementing login authentication measures. Lastly, we’ll show how applications that adopt OpenID and integrate with the Google Data APIs can be listed in the Google Apps Marketplace and made easily discoverable by over 25 million users and 2 million business that use Google Apps.
