[web2py] Web Service - Connect from Andriod App
Hi, I am planing a web2py web services that will allow my custom android app to communicate together. My primary concern is how would I secure it? IE: Have it so applications need to login in order to interact? Any documentation you can point me to would be helpful. -- -- Regards, Bruce Wade http://ca.linkedin.com/in/brucelwade http://www.wadecybertech.com http://www.warplydesigned.com http://www.fitnessfriendsfinder.com

How will the account be created (from the app? on the website?)?

Every device will have it's own login, just like every member has their own login. The accounts would be created on the website/server.

Will each device have its own login account? How will the account be created (from the app? on the website?)? I'd consider using JSON-RPC or XML-RPC and basic auth. Here's a thread dealing with a bug in that process that has some useful examples: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/web2py/lLCCUrwB5x0 Depending on how secure you need to be, https might be a good idea as well.
