Google Apps Marketplace SDK : setup a contextual gadget


Ok, so without much notification given, adding market place listings to your vendor profile is no longer possible. The 'create new listing' button is greyed out.

I need to make changes to an existing marketplace listing but that gives errors. We are forced into the new SDK.

So I went ahead and enabled the apps market SDK, filled out all details including images of all sizes, add a COB extension for the contextual gadget and saved the whole thing.

A minute later I return to make a modification and dang... error: "We are looking into this.".

@Google: HELP !

UPDATE : I can reliably reproduce the error as explained here.

  • Enable Google Apps Marketplace SDK in your project
  • click on the gear icon, you will be directed to the old API Console
  • Fill out all details
  • Add a COB extension (Contextual gadget)
  • Save everything
  • Close the API console
  • Go back to your cloud console -> Google Apps Marketplace SDK
  • Click on the gear icon again
  • ERROR

Tested with several google accounts on different computeres and multiple projects on the cloud console.


Solution

  • You must fill out parameter name and a paramter value or your cloud console will return errors and you will not be able to recover from this.

    Ouch, that were 3 useless weeks....
