google plus login example using depreciated getToken method about android-sdk HOT 3 CLOSED

Have you tried to just use the Account object that is passed into
private void loginInBackendless(final GoogleSignInAccount acct)

Like this
token = GoogleAuthUtil.getToken( mainActivity, acct, scopes );

Come from:

GoogleSignInResult result = Auth.GoogleSignInApi.getSignInResultFromIntent(data);
loginInBackendless( result.getSignInAccount() );

from android-sdk.

Yes I have, see the second link my first post:

relevant issue

getToken() does not conveniently accept a GoogleSignInAccount, but an Account, and GoogleSignInAccount is not a subtype of Account. However, if you choose to go with the AccountManager route calling getAccountsByType:

The account type is a string token corresponding to the authenticator and useful domain of the account... The exact string token to use will be published somewhere associated with the authenticator in question.

There is no documentation on this so far, other types look like this 'com.google' so backendless may be using something similar to 'com.backendless' but I am waiting for the official response. This method would also require you to request the missing permission at runtime for Manifest.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS

from android-sdk.

Why did you close this? Has it been fixed?
