User Management Feature - google-app-engine

This is a newbie question regarding app engine for Android. Is there any user management API for Android apps in the app engine?
What I'm looking for is something similar to what a mbaas provider like Kinvey provides. Something that I could use to do sing-ins, authentication, and possibly social integration (like FB).

You can use Google+ Signin which integrates really easy with both Android and App Engine and supports most gmail accounts.

Google Assistant API

Is there some google assistant api guide or tutorial? I cannot find anything related by these keywords. There seems have some Android app integration guide, but I want to integrate with my cloud service, not android app.
I find IFTTT have connected Google Assistant to several services, so I want to add some intents to my custom service.
I have built an Alexa app by using Alexa Skill Kit to handle my customize intent, and want to find something similar in Google Assistant developer playground, but I have no clue.
Thanks!
Google Assistant API was officially launched by Google for Windows, Mac, and Linux by which you can Get Google Assistant on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
If you wish to create voice applications for Google Assistant which are called as Google actions you will have to rely on the developers guide posted here
There is also an introductory course on udemy for the same.
I personally have used dialogFlow
and for the backend and I used firebase and have hosted a few apps into the store
Google Assistant will open its SDK to developers this December.
There's been a quite a lot of development on supporting the developer ecosystem, including the release of the Google Assistant SDK, app templates, and the ability to host and edit your integration via Firebase Functions.
For some code samples see
Conversational Components for Google Assistant
DialogFlow (previously Api.ai) v2 Samples

Does Google provide support for Google APIs for vaadin if not using google app engine as a runtime..?

I am new in vaadin and developing a web project so want to know if i do't use Google App Engine as my project's run time environment so that am able to use Google all APIs such as:
*Calender API
*Contact API
*Drive API
* and also other which google provide :
Google APIs
As i get to know that GAE has lot of limitations.
Please suggest me for the structure design of an Enterprise project with
Maven+vaadin+Runtime Environment(Jboss)+Eclipse+MySQL
Google APIs does not require your application to be running on Google App Engine unless of course you’re trying to use an App Engine specific API like this.
If you’re seeking suggestions on how to structure your project using Google App Engine, you may want to do so in official App Engine Google Group as such questions can be considered too broad on stackoverflow.

Using Google App Engine with mobile apps and a web app

I have just started looking into using Google App Engine for a project I'm developing. The project will have an Android and iPhone app as well as a web application that a set of users can log into. I have a couple basic questions concerning the use of Google App Engine...
Is it possible to use google app engine in conjunction with your own web app? Or would I post the web app itself on Google App Engine? Is it that I'd use my web app AND Google App Engine, or would those be the same thing? I guess this is the main point I'm not clear on.
I'm kind of concerned about putting all of our data on Google's servers and not directly owned by myself. Is this just something I'll have to get over?
Thanks for any help!
Edit: The web app will need to have a decent amount of functionality in addition to the mobile apps. Is the Google App Engine mostly for projects which only/mainly have mobile apps?
Google App Engine includes Google Cloud Endpoints for Android, iOS and web clients. The client web app can be hosted on AppEngine or elsewhere. If you host the client web app in the same application that hosts the Cloud Endpoints, authentication and data sharing is easier to achieve.
Yes, you'll just have to get over putting all of your data on Google's servers. Google does not publish or index your data, except for the data your app itself publishes to anonymous clients.

Google App Engine for e-commerce web site?

I just learned about Google App Engine, and I must say it is fantastic.
But, based on the nature of Google app engine, is it possible to design an e-commerce website using Google App Engine? I mean, based on the huge cloud server platform provided by Google App Engine, we have a built-in content delivery network. But, should it be that way?
is it possible to design an e-commerce website using Google App Engine?
If you want to develop such a website then why not go for more portable alternative? For example, develop your e-commerce website on web2py or django. Both can be hosted on GAE (in case of web2py it just needs minor modifications). GAE imposes a lot of restrictions, but you can stop worrying about system administration and scaling as GAE takes care of it.
If you want to focus on developing an e-commerce website rather than on learning development specifically for GAE then I suggest you use web2py, because porting is very easy.

I have tested it myself, you can check it if you like: http://memstats-w2py.appspot.com/
Now Google App Engine supports SSL over custom domain names.

openauth support in google app engine

Is there any native support for openauth in google app engine?
If so, where are the details?
If not, then please suggest alternatives?
I am planning to use this with twitter
Do you mean OAuth?
Yes, the standard Python OAuth library is compatible with App Engine.
tornado.auth and gaema go a step further with specific support for authenticating to Twitter's OAuth implementation from App Engine.
