I'm using Python 2.6 and the client library for Google API which I am trying to use to get authenticated access to email settings :
f = file(SERVICE_ACCOUNT_PKCS12_FILE_PATH, 'rb')
key = f.read()
f.close()
credentials = client.SignedJwtAssertionCredentials(SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL, key, scope='https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/emailsettings/2.0/', sub=user_email)
http = httplib2.Http()
http = credentials.authorize(http)
return discovery.build('email-settings', 'v2', http=http)
When I execute this code , I got the follwowing error:
UnknownApiNameOrVersion: name: email-settings version: v2
What's the api name and version for email settingsV2?
Is it possible to use it with service account?
Regards
I found the solution to get email settings using service account oauth2:
Here is a example:
SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL = ''
SERVICE_ACCOUNT_PKCS12_FILE_PATH = ''
EMAIL_SETTING_URI = "https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/emailsettings/2.0/%s/%s/%s"
def fctEmailSettings():
user_email = "user@mail.com"
f = file(SERVICE_ACCOUNT_PKCS12_FILE_PATH, 'rb')
key = f.read()
f.close()
credentials = client.SignedJwtAssertionCredentials(SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL, key, scope='https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/emailsettings/2.0/', sub=user_email)
auth2token = OAuth2TokenFromCredentials(credentials)
ESclient = EmailSettingsClient(domain='doamin.com')
auth2token.authorize(ESclient)
username = 'username'
setting='forwarding'
uri = ESclient.MakeEmailSettingsUri(username, setting)
entry = ESclient.get_entry(uri = uri, desired_class = GS.gdata.apps.emailsettings.data.EmailSettingsEntry)
It appears that the emailsettings API is not available using the Discovery API. The APIs Discovery service returns back details of an API - what methods are available, etc.
See the following issue raised on the PHP client API
https://github.com/google/google-api-php-client/issues/246
I'm unclear as to why the emailsettings is not available via the discovery API or whether there are plans to do so. Really it feels like a lot of these systems and libraries are unmaintained.
The deprecated gdata client library does have support. Try the following example, which I can confirm works ok.

In case you have multiple entry points in your app that need to access the EmailSettings API, here's a re-usable function that returns a "client" object:
def google_get_emailsettings_credentials():
'''
Google's EmailSettings API is not yet service-based, so delegation data
has to be accessed differently from our other Google functions.
TODO: Refactor when API is updated.
'''
with open(settings.GOOGLE_PATH_TO_KEYFILE) as f:
private_key = f.read()
client = EmailSettingsClient(domain='example.com')
credentials = SignedJwtAssertionCredentials(
settings.GOOGLE_CLIENT_EMAIL,
private_key,
scope='https://apps-apis.google.com/a/feeds/emailsettings/2.0/',
sub=settings.GOOGLE_SUB_USER)
auth2token = gdata.gauth.OAuth2TokenFromCredentials(credentials)
auth2token.authorize(client)
return client
It can then be called from elsewhere, e.g. to reach the DelegationFeed:
client = google_get_emailsettings_credentials()
uri = client.MakeEmailSettingsUri(username, 'delegation')
delegates_xml = client.get_entry(
uri=uri,
desired_class=gdata.apps.emailsettings.data.EmailSettingsDelegationFeed)
