Hi everyone, I was planning on creating an application such as the Google Labs Short Links service. It would be a service such that anyone with a Google Apps domain could map a subdomain to my application, log in and only be able to see their data. I have some great ideas for services but am at a stumbling block during my design phase.
Let me give you an example. e.g. someone who owns example.com could map sub.example.com to my app, and someone who owns example.org could map blah.example.org to my app also. They should be able to log in with their Google Apps username/password and then only see the data they or people in their domain has created. Don't worry about the data partitioning for now since I have a solution for that. However I am stuck at the Authentication Options. I don't think the Authentication Options covers this situation: Authentication Options are: 1) Open to all Google Accounts users (default) 2) Restricted to the following Google Apps domain [eg. example.com] In the first case, all Google Apps accounts won't work on on my application, and in the 2nd case I can only let users of one Apps Domain to be able to log in. I'm happy (for example) if I have to use a completely different way of letting people log in (eg. OpenID with Nick's aeoid) but I wonder how Google Labs are able to do this. Is this something special for them that we're not allowed to use or don't know about? Do they do something similar to Nick's or are they using something built in to AppEngine that we don't know about? I'd love to know since if there is a way to do it without integrating Nick's OpenID thing, that'd be awesome. Many thanks! Being able to create Enterprise applications in this way would be an awesome business model especially modelled on the way Moderator, Code Reviews and Short Links work.
