Yes, using multiple app_ids like this is against the TOS. We are building infrastructure to support your use case, however, so that you do not need to use multiple application IDs. In the meantime, we are happy to consider exceptions on a case-by-base basis. You can file your request using the form at:
http://code.google.com/support/bin/request.py?contact_type=AppEngineMultiInstanceExceptionRequest If you want more details, there are basically two ways of deploying a single application to multiple domains: 1. Use a single app_id and build namespacing API hooks for your calls to memcache and the datastore. If you want to use the users API with this solution, you'll have to stick with ordinary Google Accounts, not Google Apps Accounts. For more on API hooks, see http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/hooks.html 2. Use multiple app identifiers and bind each to a separate domain. This solution allows for use of the users API with Google Apps Accounts. To support option 2, we will consider making exceptions to our terms when it is clear that multiple identifiers are being used to deploy an app to multiple different customers. That is, each application ID must restrict authentication to a different Google Apps domain, and any significant functionality (beyond splash pages, login pages, etc) must be available only to members of these domains. To apply for an exception, use the form linked above. Cheers! - Jason On Mar 2, 4:55 pm, "TAN KH" <tank...@gmail.com> wrote: > 4.4.
