Android app-to-web auth?

Tech
1

On Android, when I navigate from a goal in the app to the same goal in my mobile browser, I am always authenticated. Like the authentication carries through.

How does this work?

I’d like to implement the same thing with bm.taskratchet.com, so when someone clicks the title of a goal in that dashboard, they land on the Beeminder site already-authenticated.

Thanks!

I do not know how the android app does it but the documented method is what the iOS app uses.

curl https://www.beeminder.com/api/v1/users/alice.json?auth_token=abc123&redirect_to_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.beeminder.com%2Fpledges

“Authenticate and redirect the user”
