I'm having a hard time finding a definitive answer to this question: Within my appengine app, can the use of oauth.get_current_user() ever return a user object if using Google's oauth2 end points as the authentication method?
The get_current_user() call works fine and returns the User object when expected if I use my app's end points to get oauth tokens (myappid.appspot.com/_ah/OAuth*). But this is using OAuth 1.0, which the Google dev docs are clear to point out is deprecated. So then I tried to use the OAuth2 end points and I've registered the app, got my client_id, etc. I've authorized my command line app to access the scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/appengine.admin and I've sent the request to my app, but the oauth.get_current_user() call always throws an oauth.OAuthRequestError So the question is, am I doing something wrong with OAuth2 (wrong scope, etc.) or is the only way the get_current_user() method works is via OAuth1 to your app's end points?
