                    String token;  

                    result = arg0.getResult();

                        i = (Intent)result.get(AccountManager.KEY_INTENT);  
                        System.out.println("INtect=="+i.toString());
                        if (i.toString().contains("GrantCredentialsPermissionActivity")) {  

                            cbt.startActivity(i);  
                            System.out.println("ssstttt");
                        } else {  
                            cbt.startActivity(i);
                            System.out.println("endddddd");
                        }  

                    } else {       
 token = (String)result.get(AccountManager.KEY_AUTHTOKEN);  

I have got the generated API key from google Account,but where to send the authToken and API key so that user can login using his gmail credentials

Answer 1

It's not recommended using Gmail credentials, since Google+ and Gmail is merged, what you actually want, is to be able to login with Google+. This will also make you able to make API calls.
