Is it possible to verify that an email address is a member of certain yahoo group? For example if user sign in with openId, can we autheticate he is member of any group?

No, unfortunately there is no API for Yahoo Groups.

Actually, there is one. But its use is restricted for non-commercial purposes only. Below is the link, if anyone is interested:

  • Right, that's for Yahoo Upcoming service, but not for Yahoo Groups. Unless I'm missing something? – BrianC Jan 12 '12 at 18:29
  • There is a set of group related api – anergy Jan 13 '12 at 10:31
  • Ahh, right. There is a set of APIs related to [Upcoming Groups](http://upcoming.yahoo.com/group/), but I think the original question here was about [Yahoo Groups](http://groups.yahoo.com/) which are separate. – BrianC Jan 13 '12 at 16:38
  • I guess I confused it with Yahoo Groups. – anergy Jan 13 '12 at 16:55
