Hi, all!

I've got a question: can I use Authorization => 'GoogleLogin auth=authtoken in request header for automatic authorization
inhttp://beta.blogger.com/add-widget. Now I'm redirected
tohttps://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin. Why so? Or it's not possible?

Thanks regards.

Hi alexey,

This is expected behavior, the GoogleLogin token is usable with the API, but not the Blogger UI. For Blogger web pages, a different auth mechanism is used. How were you planning to use the auth token? Perhaps there is another way we could work out your intended use.

Cheers,

Jeff
