In testing, I verified that friends can indeed see each other's person app data, so that's good. It would've been a little crazy having to use global app data for everyone, I'm glad that provision was in there. I am having a bit of an issue with using the returned data, though. I can verify

The Hi5 sandbox currently uses the synd querystring parameter (e.g. synd=hi5), which is nicer than trying to parse the parent URL. That would be a preferred standard IMHO. On Nov 14, 1:04 pm, Arne Roomann-Kurrik (Google) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Currently there isn't a standard way of doing

Well, I'm not sure this is the best way, but this is how I've been doing it since I haven't figured out how to iterate through the maps. The data comes back as a map object per the spec (for newFetchPersonAppDataRequest) When processed, returns a MapPersonId
