What is “authTokenType” parameter in Google data API?

Question

I just implemented Google Translator Toolkit API using the new google-api-java-client. Problem is, that authTokenType isn\'t mentioned anywhere in documentation and it seems

Answer 1

Not entirely relevant, but for others with authTokenType issues, there's a table of authTokenType values here:

http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/faq.html#clientlogin

I used this to figure out that I needed to set authTokenType ="writely" to access the Google Docs List API.

Answer 3

I found that in the old gdata client library. It is "gtrans"

But if anybody of you were gonna implement client for google APIs using the new google-api-java-client library. You have to use gdataVersion = "1.0"; instead of gdataVersion = "2.0"; because it won't work and you don't know why...

authTokenType is type of the service
