Re: Is service account support in blogger api?

Brett,

I have the same need: Need my Google App Engine app to post to my blogger 
Blog on behalf of the App.
I tried using the service account and private key, but it did not work.

Are service accounts still not supported on Blogger?
What are my options if I need my GAE app to insert a post on my Blog?

Regards,
Asim
