For example, I have two Google accounts with the email address dwa...@figleaf.com. One is a GAFYD account, the other is a regular Google account with Gmail and Calendar not activated. This allows me to use public Google services like Analytics but have the email sent to my domain account, and is a somewhat common thing for people to do if they have a domain account. In my experience, I can't log into both of those simultaneously from the same browser.

On an intranet you could do some DNS voodoo to hijack a google DNS name and set some cookies from that DNS name. But if you go that way you should take a moment to consider the security consequences of messing with Google accounts. > I realize that this problem is the same trying to access any Google services > and this is not just Analytics specific. Which is why I don't think your clients will be happy if you do this. Imagine having Gmail open in one tab with an almost complete message, clicking your intranet link for the statistics and suddenly being logged out from your own Gmail account and into another Google account for the analytics.

Auto-Login to Google Analytics
We want to add single login access to Google Analytics from our Content Management System for our clients. I know there is an API for grabbing the Analytics data, but we are not interested in reproducing the reports. We like the UI provided by Google. We just want to give our clients a link inside of the Administrative portion of the Content Management System that will open up the Analytics Profile reports. Is it possible to authenticate to Google using the AuthSub and then pass the token in a GET/POST to Analytics? If so, does anyone know the syntax? Should I be looking at using OpenID instead? I have found tons of articles explaining how to log in to everything but Google using OpenID. It seems to me if Google has already authorized the login, then accessing the services should be allowed. I realize that this problem is the same trying to access any Google services and this is not just Analytics specific. So if anyone has had luck linking to any Google services from inside a password protected app, changing the service should be simple. Any help is appreciated, Donnie ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
