i doubt you need to authenticate yourself for a readonly operation (although i have not tried accessing the feeds readonly), and your code is pretty much a 1:1 of the unittest file blogger.cs in the csharp lib.

You *will* need to authenticate to GET a feed from www.blogger.com. (This is not true of beta.blogger.com.)

What's wrong is the service name.

The service name for blogger is "blogger", not "cl". So what you are doing is:

tell the C# code that you want to talk to the calendar. Then you give us credentials. With those credentials we get you a nice valid calendar token to use.

Next we know, we use that token at the wrong toll booth. And they say: no. So change "cl" to "blogger" and it should work fine. You might also want to checkout:

a) are you running 1.05 of the C# library? If not, upgrade b) if you are using 1.05, checkout blogger.cs in the unittest directory and the blogger sample app

Hi,

i may be just plain dumb but i can't figure out for the life of me how to get feeds from the beta blogs using c# gdata lib.

what i want to do is display the feeds from my blogs on a website.

When i impliment the sample code found on the api pages i get a 401 "not authorised" error. i can't figure out how to autheticate and i'm not sure why i need to since i only want to read the feed files, my rss readers (like firefox) don't authenticate why does my web app have to? surely rss is public?

the code i use is:

FeedQuery query = new FeedQuery(); Google.GData.Client.Service service = new Service("cl", "exampleCo-exampleApp-1"); NetworkCredential nc = new NetworkCredential("char@contrapositive.tv", password); query.Uri = new Uri(" http://beta.blogger.com/feeds/2782979428496788466/posts/full"); AtomFeed feed = service.Query(query);

i have another .net atom class library called Atom.Net but when i use that with my blog's feed address it can't find any entries. It can with the old blogger.

Does this mean the format has changed? How do i get a Atom feed?

Sorry if this is dumb but i can't seem to work out the documentation...
