I just complete a android app based on a website tutorial. This app is to send and receive data to google datastore. I have created a appengine backend. This works well locally on localhost:8888. I could see the data transformation. But after I deploy it to google app engine. It can not show the data. I could access the datastore by myapp.appspot.com/_ah/api/explorer. But I can not access it with phone while I can access local data with phone emulator. I just followed this gentleman's guide https://github.com/sachinkariyattin/Cloudendpoints

Any one can help me? Thanks in advance.

The Below is the CloudEndpointUtils class

package com.iot1;

import com.google.api.client.googleapis.services.GoogleClientRequestInitializer;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.util.Log;
import android.widget.Toast;

import java.io.IOException;

I guess you did not create your own account at Google Cloud and/or make the necessary changes in appengine-web.xml file. For a thorough example you may follow: http://rominirani.com/2014/08/20/gradle-tutorial-part-7-android-studio-app-engine-gradle/

I found it that I should update the created google client library after I changed the appengine-web.xml. And it all works now.
