Thanks! I can make the compromise to get my application running with access to the users name alone. Guess I won't be needing emails.

Hi! Currently, there is no way to access the signed-in user's full email address without using your "crazy round-about solution." GME's JavaScript API does expose the username of the user as an application property (google.mashups.properties['username']), but the account domain is not included.

Is there anyway I can easily know the mail address of a user that has signed on to an authenticated mashup. I want to make groups and need to change certain application appearances and permissions based on membership types.

At first I imagined that maybe for privacy reasons the email address of the user was not available to the application. But I then figured out that I can write a random entry in the user feed and extract the authors email to later use that as a filter against the groups memberships. Anyways this solution is just a crazy round-about, but it does make me believe that the privacy issue is void, so is there any easier way to get a users mail address?- Hide quoted text -
