Empty password when retrieving users from UserFeed with Google Apps API

Question

I am trying to retrieve all user accounts in my domain using Google apps api with .net!

But the problem is: the UserEntry.Login.Password is alway empty.

Is it possible to retrieve users with their password using the api? If not, is there a solution to login into the user's Gmail using domain admin password?

Thank you!

No. User passwords are not returned by the API. An Administrator can update the user password but cannot retrieve it.
