Picasa API for Android

Question

Does somebody know where I can find a good API to send and receive photos from my Android-phone to Picasa? I've been searching for more than 2 days but I can't find a good way. I think the best way was to do this via HttpRequests and using OAuth2. Does somebody have a good example on this?

Answer 1

They have a public facing API described here:

https://developers.google.com/picasa-web/docs/2.0/developers_guide_java

You are right. You will have to authenticate your app using OAuth and then send HTTP requests using the provided API's.

It should work on Android. If you need a sample on how to use restful web services on Android, You can see this sample from google:

http://code.google.com/p/apps-for-android/source/browse/#git%2FPhotostream%2Fsrc%2Fcom%2Fgoogle%2Fandroid%2Fphotostream

It's a sample app that uses the flickr API to stream photos.
