Authenticating against App Engine from an Android app - Nick's Blog - 0 views

Authentication with App Engine, regardless of where you're doing it, is a three-stage process: Obtain an authentication token. This can be done with ClientLogin for installed apps, for example, or with AuthSub for a webapp. When logging in directly to an application, this is the part of the login process where your user sees a Google signin screen. Take that authentication token, and use it to obtain an authentication cookie. Use that authentication cookie in all subsequent requests.
