I'm trying to make an ajax request to the google contacts API with the following setup:

$.ajax({

  url: https://www-opensocial.googleusercontent.com/api/people/@me/@all,

  dataType: 'jsonp',

  data: {

    alt: 'json-in-script'

  },

  headers: {

    'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + token

  },

  success: function(data, status) {

    return console.log(The returned data, data);

  }

});

But the Authentication header doesn't seem to get set. Any ideas?

I had the same problem recently. Try this:

$.ajax({

  url: https://www-opensocial.googleusercontent.com/api/people/@me/@all,

  dataType: 'jsonp',

  data: {

    alt: 'json-in-script'

  },

  success: function(data, status) {

    return console.log(The returned data, data);

  },

  beforeSend: function(xhr, settings) { xhr.setRequestHeader('Authorization','Bearer ' + token); } 

});

EDIT: Looks like it can't be done with JSONP. Modify HTTP Headers for a JSONP request
