I am successful with the both methods below, to log on using federated log in for my site on Google App Engine (Python) 

users.create_login_url("\", "google", "https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id")
users.create_login_url("\", "yahoo", "http://open.login.yahooapis.com/openid20/www.yahoo.com/xrds")

I wish to provide more log in options to my users. Can anyone help me with getting federated identity of Facebook, MySpace, Wordpress, etc..

Google documentation mentions following direct providers of federated identities ...

  • google.com/accounts/o8/id (shorter alternative: gmail.com)
  • yahoo.com
  • myspace.com
  • aol.com
  • myopenid.com

... as well as username provider federated identities:

  • flickr.com/USERNAME
  • USERNAME.wordpress.com
  • USERNAME.blogspot.com
  • USERNAME.livejournal.com
  • openid.aol.com/USERNAME
  • USERNAME.myopenid.com
  • www.myspace.com/USERNAME

Facebook is not an OpenID provider, forcing its own standard Facebook Connect.

    Facebook started to accept OpenId a while ago: http://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/246 The linked article show how to achieve a user-friendly login with multiple providers. You basically create links to the services you want to support using `users.create_login_url(federated_identity=...)`. – moraes Aug 28 '10 at 16:24

    I think you can log into Facebook with OpenID but you cannot use Facebook account to log into for example stackoverflow.com. – Michal Sznajder Aug 28 '10 at 17:08
  • Very thanks for the response dose google accepts microsoft live ids and in.com ids via open id i found some publishers using these two for open id, may be not on google frame work. – sandeep koduri Aug 30 '10 at 06:52
  • but what is the login url for facebook if we want to use it as open id provider – Faizan Ali Oct 20 '12 at 11:56

There is a partial list of OpenID providers on Wikipedia; Facebook is not an OpenID provider, preferring to make you use Facebook Connect. Myspace uses "myspace.com/username" as the federated identity, while wordpress uses "username.wordpress.com".

Here is an excellent resource for Open ID providers in the form of a nice JQuery plug-in: http://jvance.com/pages/JQueryOpenIDPlugin.xhtml

  • The OpenID site itself also provides a nice list of know providers: [http://openid.net/get-an-openid/](http://openid.net/get-an-openid/) – Richard Logwood Sep 25 '11 at 04:32
