New 3-Legged OAuth support for Google Apps Administrative APIs

September 28, 2010

Editor's Note:This post was originally published on the Google Enterprise Blog. We decided to re-post it here as we think it'll be interesting to readers of the Google Apps Developer Blog.make the cloud more secure

OAuth is more secure: OAuth tokens can be scoped and set to expire by a certain date, making them more secure than using the ClientLogin mechanism.

OAuth is customizable: Using OAuth, you can create tokens that scripts may only use to access data of a particular scope when calling Google Apps APIs. For instance, a token set to call the Email Migration API would not be able to use your login credentials to access the Google Apps Provisioning API.

OAuth is an open standard: OAuth is an open source standard, making it a familiar choice for developers to work with.
