I still don't get it. I've purchased another domain to check how another Google apps admin can add my service. When creating my app on appengine I have to specify the hosted domain to which this app will be restricted. What domain do I have to enter? Do I have to enter my own domain? Will this entry be changed once another admin subscribes to my service? I've restricted my app to my domain and tried to add this service to my brand new test-account on Google apps.
But I miserably failed as it was simply not reachable even though CNAME was correct. I tried the same with another public app that I've deployed on appengine and this worked at first try. But a public app is not what I want. I want to add a service to a domain, so that every user can login without sharing the password with my application. I'm using AuthSub to let the users grant access to their data. My next try was to add the new domain to my app engine version, but this not only gives me: "You do not have the permissions necessary to install this application." but it also only works for domains that are owned by me. I'm very confused. How is this feature intended to work? Or will it only work for public services?
