App Engine Bulk Data Upload- Authentication Error

Question

Hi guys. When I try to upload data using appcfg.py I get an authentication error regardless of my login details being completely correct.

    appcfg.py upload_data --config_file=bulkloader.yaml --filename=/output.csv --kind=AutoCompleteIndex .
Application: qwertifyy; version: dev.
Uploading data records.

What could the problem be?

Answer 1

I think you are using OpenID? If so, it appears that remote_api doesn't work with OpenID:
