I am developing a web application in which I want to allow users to use my application using their google account without having to register with my application separately just like we can do on stackoverflow. Please point me to some kind of tutorial or detailed documentation about how can I achieve this ?

Thanks

    Just a suggestion, you would cover a way bigger user base with OpenID, Google Accs are a subset of accs that can be used for it. – TC1 Jul 27 '11 at 10:44
  • possibly the same question..? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2971914/how-to-implement-google-openid-authentication-in-php-test-on-localhost – sdolgy Jul 27 '11 at 10:52

You need to integrate OpenID, which enables users to login to applications around the web without the need to create a new account. See this page, "Single Sign On with OpenID" : http://code.google.com/googleapps/marketplace/tutorial_php.html

Here is another tutorial link: Single Sign-On with OpenID and Google Part 1

Hope it helps.

  • The link is broken. (This is the reason you should paste the relevant information from the page instead of just giving a link.) – aioobe May 21 '15 at 20:38
  • Information on this kind of topic imho outdates faster than the webpage. if you are interested in the old info waybackmachine helps. it is simple. http://web.archive.org/web/20120225144934/http://code.google.com/intl/de-DE/apis/accounts – marc May 22 '15 at 08:51
