Hi,
I develope a Feed-Reader in C# and would like to add some information
about the author of a blog.Do you know how to get the information of
the profile using the gdata-api?
If you are looking at the feed which lists posts on a particular blog,
the user's ID is not present but you can find it in a few steps. When
I want to look up the ID for a blog's author, I usually look in the
blog's post feed and look for the 'alternate' link in the feed which
points to the HTML page for the blog. The blog's HTML has a 'me' link
which points to the users profile. Does this seem like it would work
for you?
An other problem is that, when reading the Comments from the AtomEntry
the entry.Authors[0].Uri-Field is always empty. There is a specified
name in entry.Authors[0] but no uri. Why? I would like to know, who
has made a comment to a posting.
At the moment, only the name is exposed through the API, the email
address and URI are not included in the feeds (however this is not set
in stone and may change).
Happy coding,
Jeff
