Google Cloud Endpoints is a technology developed by Google for use on Google App Engine to allow developers to develop and host APIs easily, and to generate strongly-typed client libraries for Java (Android) and Objective-C (iOS), and dynamically-typed libraries for JavaScript.

Google Cloud Endpoints is a technology developed by Google for use on Google App Engine to allow developers to develop and host APIs easily.

Features

  • Support for Java and Python runtimes
  • Built on Google's API infrastructure - it works with many of the same tools and libraries used for Google's own APIs, such as the APIs Explorer and APIs Console
  • Automatically-generated, statically-typed client libraries for Android and iOS - these libraries are using the same Google-authored Java and Objective-C libraries you would use to access other Google-provided APIs such as the Calendar API
  • Dynamically-typed JS client library - again, the same library you use to access other Google-provided APIs in JS, which is called Google JavaScript client library
  • Built in support for OAuth 2
  • Integration with the Google Plugin for Eclipse - this allows you to automatically create an API based on a model, or an App Engine application to back an existing Android app
  • Support for local development - you can build and test your API using the App Engine development environment, just as with other App Engine features
